“It was a very, very challenging journey because we were doing an adaptation na marami nang gumawa sa ibang bansa. Nakakataba ng puso na nagustuhan nila ’yung interpretation natin,” shared Direk Andoy. “The vision that I had to push forward in the series is to create a very Filipino version of Doctor Foster. We were able to represent the Filipino identity globally,” said Direk Connie.

“Nung in-offer ’yung project, sa totoo lang, nagulat ako. At una kong tinanong sa manager ko, ‘Huh? Bakit ako?’ Kasi napanood ko ’yung Korean version, pero para sa ibang proyekto. So parang hindi ko alam kung paano sisimulan. Na-pressure ba ako? Oo, sobra. Kasi ilang bansa na gumawa ng kanya-kanya nilang adaptation. Ang naging challenge talaga eh paano siya mapapaiba doon sa mga nauna. Paano ba natin ito iku-kwento bilang Pilipino?”

Jodi also took time to share some wise lessons she learned from playing Jill: “Our life will only move towards the directions of our decisions, so we really have to choose wisely, choose our battles. If you’re given the chance to fight or to let go, parang that’s up to you. But if you’re given the chance to treat the person the same way that that person treated you, I always hope that we choose the high road.”

On the other hand, Sue shared the value of listening to the people who love you: “You also have to learn how to listen to the people around you. ’Yung siguradong-sigurado ka na hindi ka ile-let down… your parents… how si Lexy was loved by her mom and her dad. Aabot ka talaga roon sa point na kailangan mo nang mag-decide at kailangan mong makinig sa mga taong nagmamahal sa’yo.”

Zanjoe also expressed his thoughts on learning to let go of hate: “’Wag ka nang maghiganti, ’wag mo na siyang dalhin sa susunod na chapter ng buhay mo kasi ikaw naman talaga magdi-direct kung saan ka pupunta… nasa sarili mong desisyon ’yun, lahat ng bagay. Kasi kung punong-puno ka ng galit at paghihiganti, pati mga taong kasama mo sa present, maapektuhan, madadamay lalo na ’yung magiging anak mo,” he said.
