Melai Cantiveros recounts realizations after portraying a policewoman in ‘Ma’am Chief: Shakedown in Seoul.’

On November 10, Kapamilya star Melai Cantiveros recounted her realizations after portraying a policewoman in her movie, ‘Ma’am Chief: Shakedown in Seoul.’

At the media event for ‘Ma’am Chief: Shakedown in Seoul,’ which LionhearTV covered, Cantiveros highlighted the challenges police officers face when fulfilling their duties on a daily basis.

“‘Yung sa mga kapulisan, na-realize ko, alam ninyo, ang hirap pala talaga ng damit nila, ‘yung nakikpaglaban pa sila sa mga magnanakaw, o ano ba ito, tapos ‘yung baril napaka-bigat ng baril, ang mga damit nila, ‘yung suot nila, bago lagyan ng baril, ang bigat na rin. Tsaka ‘yung susuotin pa, napaka-sikip.

“Kailangan masikip talaga, fitted kasi, para talaga silang superhero. Kaya na-realize ko hindi pala talaga biro maging pulis.”

She then remarked how her action-comedy movie would help humanize the police force in the country.

“Dito sa movie na ‘to, mapapanood ninyo, mayroon tayong mga discouragement, minsan nadi-discourage tayo sa mga pulis natin, dito mababago ‘yung tingin ninyo sa mga pulis natin, dahil mare-realize ninyo na mayroon din silang soft heart. 

“Na talagang maa-appreciate ninyo na ganon pala, struggle is real pala. At akala ninyo matapang sila, mayroon din silang side na weak din sila, na tao din sila.”

As for her experience filming with a South Korean film production crew, Cantiveros emphasized the differences in the work culture between the Philippines and South Korea.

“Ako mismo na-amaze ako dahil 8-10 hours, sobra na ‘yung 10 hours. Sobra na ‘yung to work in 10 hours. Tapos sa 10 hours na ‘yun or sa 8 hours na ‘yun, nandoon na ang lunch. And ‘yung hours na ‘yun, nakatayo lang sila, ‘yung mga crew, they’re very dedicated to their work. 

“Binibigyan ng isang oras ang lunch, because, ine-enjoy nila ang food nila, at ang launch doon, restaurant, kaya noong dumating sila dito ‘yung crew, packed lunch. Napaganon sila, the best.”

She also praised the cast and crew’s commitment to their jobs.

“And pinaka-na-amaze ako, ‘yung assistant director, namin si Miss Sara, minsan kasi ‘yung assistant director natin dito, talagang sigaw, doon sa kanila, ‘It’s Okay, can we go back?’ Very polite. 

“Tapos doon sa amin, edi uulan, nandoon kami sa tent, sabi ko, ‘You sit, you sit.’ Kasi uulan eh, stop taping, walang scene, dahil ‘yung sa ulan. Sabi nila, ‘No, because our boss is tending.’ 

“So na-amaze ako sa kung paano nila respetuhin at kung paano sila mag-work, so in 8 to 10 hours, nakatayo lang sila, para after noon pack up na, kasi work is work, at alam nila ang ginagawa nila ha.”

As for their movie, ‘Ma’am Chief: Shakedown in Seoul’ stars Melai Cantiveros, Alora Sasam, Karylle Tatlonghari, and Jennica Garcia.

The cast also features a mixture of Filipino and Korean stars such as Bernadette Allyson Estrada, Dustine Mayores, Enzo Almario, Manel Sevidal, Pepe Herrera, Sela Guia, Do Ji-han, Lee Seung-gi, Rolling Quartz, Yuju, Moon Kyung, Gabriel Choi, Ha Ju-young, Park Seong-jin, Hyeonyul Kim, Kim Hyeon-yul, Suya Lee, and Park Ji-yong.

Under the direction of Kring Kim and produced by Happee Sy-Go, ‘Ma’am Chief: Shakedown in Seoul’ opens in cinemas on November 15.
