Kris Bernal Admits She Had A Vacation In Korea With Her Non-Showbiz Business Association & Ka-Mutual Understanding

KRIS BERNAL is nominated as best actress in the coming Star Awards for Television. This is for her crackerjack portrayal of her dual roles of Nimfa and Rosette in the hit GMA-7 Afternoon Prime drama, “Impostora”. “It’s an honor pero hindi naman ako nananalo diyan, e,” she tells on the show’s set in Cainta. “Ilang beses na akong na-nominate, never won pa. But I appreciate it, lalo ngayon, talagang ang daming nagsasabing dito raw sa ‘Impostora’ ko napatunayang talagang aktres ako. But when I look at the list of the other nominees, naku, malayo talaga akong manalo and thanks na lang na nahanay akong ma-nominate with them.”

Kris just returned from a short visit to Korea and the rumor is that she was with her “jowa” who’s not from showbiz. “Wow, may sinabi ba akong jowa?” she laughs. “Hindi ko pa siya jowa. We’re just dating. Mga six months na. At may iba pa kaming friends na kasama sa Korea. We went there as possible business partners. But don’t ask for his name kasi very private siya.”

So they have M.U. "Yes, parang ganun." And how did they meet? “Siya kasi yung nagsu-supply ng meat sa’kin for my two burger joints in Marikina and UST, called Meat Kris. We’re thinking of putting up a Korean Grill restaurant in Manila kasi na-realize ko, mas gusto pa rin ng mga Pinoy ng rice meals kaysa burgers. We’ll specialize in grilled pork belly na hit na hit sa Korea and our resto will be called Seoul Meat, parang soul mate.”

So is this guy really her soul mate? “Kinikilala pa lang namin ang isa’t isang mabuti. Ayoko namang paiba-iba ng boyfriend. I want to make sure na yung next ko, siya na ring magiging last ko. But I don’t want to get married yet. 28 pa lang naman ako. Focus muna ko sa ‘Impostora’, lalo ngayong extended kami up to January. Marami pang mangyayari, lalo ngayong isinama sina Sheryl Cruz at Marc Abaya bilang mga bagong magpapahirap sa akin.”

How does she feel that her former ka-love team, Aljur Abrenica, is now a dad? “Nagkausap kami and I can see na he’s very happy naman sa situation niya ngayon, so I’m very happy for him and wish him all the best.”
