Never-ending Masochism of Pinoys: At Least ... KATHNIEL has a new teleserye LA LUNA SANGRE

Well, I have been on vacation & the news of the upcoming TV shows of ABS-CBN I got to know only now. Nobody among my friends bothered to email them to me, now I know why.

First the good news, Kathniel will have a new teleserye. I got the trailer below. Nice title btw.

The bad news, Abs-Cbn is trying to revive the careers in the Philippines of the washed-up Koreans the sponsors of whom have sabotaged its stars in many parts of the world as documented in this blog. The most recent was in Peru (read at Tales of SABOTAGE in the sidebar). It's obvious there are Western footprints behind the Koreans who want the latter to be the dominant pop cultural force in these parts as a resurgent China and East Asia become the focus of the world. But it's also obvious that after a decade, the Koreans were already a spent force here. Their kpop is not popular, their drama series don't rate. Their only claim was one hit film recently among a bunch of flops (The Thais had a hit here in Shutter & the Japanese had the The Ring & the rest of the genre so that doesn't mean a thing). The only saving grace is the alleged big online hits of Korean shows from the Philippines- but that is not even a proof the Filipinos were watching. We have more than a 100,000 Korean migrants & nearly 800,000 Korean tourists and all these would be watching online for shows from their homeland because that is how nationalistic they are.

So why would Abs-Cbn be promoting Korean shows now & be part of the propaganda machine propping up the myth of the Korean wave? Can the upsurge of GMA shows in the ratings be giving it cold feet (Encantadia & Alyas Robin Hood are lording over the ratings)? Its usual strategy to deny the other its strength like recruiting the big stars of the latter has now been reduced to competing with GMA in its usual fallback to snap alleged big hits in Korea which turned out to be flops here anyway? If the previous alleged big hits in Korea didn't rate here before, why promote other alleged big hits now?  Is it worth feeding the inferiority complex and masochism of Pinoys just to revive spent foreign competitors just because one is having cold feet due to stronger local competition?

Lol!

  1. Mula noong hindi na AbsCbn President si Charo, nagkalecheleche na. Sa recent Nielsen 8 out of the Top 10 ay sa GMA

    1. Mas malaki pa ang sample size ng Nielsen sa Maynila,2500, kesa sa nationwide sample size ng Kantar, mga 2000 lang. So which is more credible?

    2. 2500 ang sample size ng Nielsen sa 13 million population ng Maynila pero 2000 lang ng Kantar sa 103 million population ng Pilipinas? Lol. Magic nga

  2. Malaki siguro bayad. Walang nangyari noong ipalabas ang Descendants of the Sun sa GMA so walang option ang mga Koreano kundi i-price is right ang Abs-Cbn. Vulnerable ito ngayon kasi delikado ang mga shows niya, Kantar lang nagmamagic

  3. Kabado lang Abs ngayon kasi bigla umarangkada ang Primetime ng GMA. Kahit saan ka mapunta sa Manila Encantadia ang kwela. Pero paano sila matutulungan ng mga Koreano? Pati yong kay Sandara tinalo ng Tsuper Hero

    1. Nagpapagamit kasi ang AbsCbn sa politika.Tingnan nyo nangyari sa TIMY, dahil sa pagpapagamit sa propaganda ng LGBT, nandiri na lang ang tao kaya sumadsad sa rating kahit anong sex ngayon pagawa sa Jadine. Ngayon pagamit naman sila sa pagpapabango sa mga Koreano , para saan pa e laos na kaya nanabotahe na lang?
