Hyundai Home Appliances Taps DASORI CHOI as New Ambassador

 

She's Korean and made waves appearing in the longest running noontime show in the country. She's a spirited dancer and can give idol groups a run for their money. She's a sensation in popular social channels and continues to inspire pinoys to be the best that they can be. She's got the heart of a Filipino and yes, today is a momentous occasion for her and Korea's top brand Hyundai Home Appliances. She's Dasori Choi, who is now Hyundai Home Appliances newest brand ambassador.

 

Hyundai Home Appliances Philippines Product Manager Robby Lim says "Hyundai home appliances have been around for years now. We have Smart TV's, Air Conditioners, home appliances that's of international quality. As we launch our partnership with Dasuri today, we want you to know that Hyundai still remains as the heart of the home."

Dasuri Choi "I am so happy that I got a top brand as an endorsement. I've been in the country for 11 years in the Philippines. I have a family business here, but I love the people. Aside from that, I've loved the Philippines and I miss my family a lot. My father is here, but I'm the only one in Manila. I haven't gone home for 2 years because of the pandemic but I feel home here too. I don't feel homesick, but now I'm alone in Manila and miss Korea sometimes too. I decorated my house with things from Korea, so I started completing my essentials with Korean brands like Hyundai. I want everyday to be light and energetic, Filipinos and Koreans adore Coffee and every morning I prepare a cup so I'm ready to dance whenever I create content or guest in shows. I focused more on working out and prepare meals at home. If I wanted to chill and relax, I spend much time with my dog so I look for relaxing music for them so they don't get stressed with thunder and lightning. When it's hot, I set the airconditioning and electric fan to the right temperature and watch my favorite shows on television, this is where Hyundai came in perfectly.I am very OC, I feel so satisfied seeing a clean home and always make it a point to pick up stuff even if it's not on schedule. I'm quite independent, so I also prepare Korean food like Tteokbokki, Samgyupsal, because I miss home cooking." 

Rowiji Soler their product manager also showcased some of Hyundai's home appliances to us during the presscon. They have Digital LED rice cookers, Built in Double Burner Gas Stoves, infrared cooker (for those who don't want flames in condos), Circular Electric Grills and Coffee Makers. Simona on the other hand introduced their Gas Ranges, 55 Inch Ultra HD LED Smart TV (wherein you can also browse social media), Inverter window type and split type air conditioners. They can't wait for you to have one in your homes.

My favorite is the airconditioner and the rice cookers. They actually save you money in the long run, so yes, it is a worthwhile investment. They're coming out with more products especially this holiday season.

Julie Anne San Jose is LIMITLESS

Music encompasses location, religion, almost anything in the world. It brings people closer, it takes us to a journey even without stepping foot out of our homes and is... limitless.

One of GMA's prized singer and artists, Julie Anne San Jose embarks on finding herself in the regions less traveled in the country. Watch her in this musical trilogy called LIMITLESS.

Julie says "This all started when Direk Paolo Valenciano and I had a conversation and asked if we could do a concert. I had a concept in mind, Synergy and GMA wanted to promote tourism, places in the Philippines and reconnect with people across the archipelago. It just came to a point when we didn't know yet what project to call this, is this a concert or movie, we had so much brainstorming done. When it was presented to me, Paolo thought he misses interaction, this pandemic put us through a lot of changes especially in our industry. Artists had to express ourselves through art and different mediums, I also wanted to offer something different, I loved the concept hence this trilogy, do it in different locations in Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao and discover new things about myself and this country. I am so thankful to have been able to be given an opportunity to do this. It's also my first time to do something like this, and it's worth it! We haven't really shot much of the trilogy, but we'll do it. I myself have been surprised at what I saw, at the places I've never been to and I'm excited to show what it looks like here. You'll see culture, traditions, things that you see in history books and do it in real life. You'll feel their warmth, the opportunity to go there was really awesome! We want to reconnect, we want to inspire, hopefully through my music they would feel that you can be happy. I am excited for you to see all these. When this was pitched to me, it was like having a panic attack, I felt I really wanted this, it was perfect for me because I was preoccupied with things when I travel for work and just go back home, but here, I go to different places, I enjoyed this so much because it didn't feel like work. It's like we're putting on record what we felt and experienced, we waited for a long time for this project, we felt we needed it, it was like a break from the city and it was so nice there!"

Tagaytay Highlands Ups Digital Assets

The pandemic has affected a lot of industries and tons of businesses have ceased operations in the country. Though bleak in some sectors, real estate has seen growth despite the odds. Tagaytay Highlands for example has adapted well in digital where they've gotten home buyers to look at assets clearly even without physically visiting sites.

Take for example Horizon Terraces Garden Villas, they have their Glendale model unit on a 360 degree virtual walk-through so their clients don't have to go there anymore. It's a really good alternative especially for those who couldn't go out since there are still restrictions in Manila and nearby cities. With a few clicks, you can go to every corner of the house and see it like you're there. It's also accessible on Android, iOS, Windows OS or Mac.

Upping the ante with that 360 degree virtual walk through is Tagaytay Highlands' very own Virtual Tour Guide which gives a more welcoming treat and personalized service so they can see what it feels living in a Garden Villa home. It shows the Glendale model unit, ground and second floor, the living room, dining and kitchen as well. There's also a third floor where the bedrooms are located and you can see that all including a view from the balcony because there are gardens and Midlands Golf Course near the property. You may see it too on their Glendale Model Unit Walk through on YouTube.

They also have Garden Villas which measure from 136 to 168 square meters, built 7 in each cluster with privacy and security in mind. Horizon Terraces Garden Villas on the other hand is closer to the golf course, cable cars and the sports facilities as well. They also have pools, world class restaurants and the Country Club which members love. If you opt for a personal visit, they have strict protocols to follow. Their property management also follow this and employ precautionary measures to make sure everyone is safe. They've been recently awarded a Safety Seal courtesy of the Tagaytay City Government which is just a proof of what they're doing in this place. For those starting a family, finding a place to live in Tagaytay, they've got flexible payment terms for The Garden Villas. They even turn over properties virtually to prevent physical events and keep you safe.

Spruce Up Your Work and School Spaces with Globe At Home Prepaid WiFi

You've been working so hard at home, some of us are still studying online. Have you thought of tidying up your space? Or maybe look for things that could speed things up? How do you maintain work life balance during these days when everything seems so stressful? Here are a few things you can do to make it better!

Fix Up Your Space

You spend quite a number of hours in your work/study area so make sure it's comfortable. It should be conducive for what you are doing, so you have to make it clutter free. If it's something that you're not using for days, put it in proper storage rather than on top of your table. If you're using gadgets, a desktop computer, tidy up the cables and make sure it's not spread around. Hook it up or put cable organizers. Put pens and pencils in one place, cutters and scissors in another. Making it clutter free will also make you think clearly, put you into zen mode especially on those days when you're stressed and pressured. 

 

Speed and Reliability of your Internet Connection

Work, study and play won't happen if you don't have internet connection these days. I've always used data but always end up with a heated phone because it can't handle all my workload. Aside from that, everybody else at home needs internet. Globe’s At Home Prepaid Wifi was a lifesaver for us during a line outage in my locale. It's super fast and reliable because it connects to LTE. You can also share internet for other devices and people at home. It's quite affordable too because they've made it easy to load and subscriber to sulit promos. You can opt for the HS199 code which has 30GB  of data which you can use for 7 days. Pretty cheap, but amazingly fast.

Observe Work-Life Balance

The stress will also be there, but of course, if you're already working at home, where do you draw the line? If you work in the office from 8-5pm in the past, you should do the same even when you're at home. Truth is, some of us are even more efficient because we're more relaxed in our caves. But once work is done, it should be done. I used to never take vacations in the past, and it ended up making me burn out quite a bit and uninspired. Make time for family, for friends, because the amount of time you spend with them are precious. It doesn't have to cost much, make memories with them and don't even hesitate to tell them how much you love em. A simple game would do. Trust me on that.

By the way, if you're looking for things that can spruce up your space at work or at home, you can purchase the Globe at Home Prepaid Wifi through Globe's official store in Lazada. You can also get the chance to win Coocaa 55 inck 4K capable Android 10 and Smart flat screen Ultra HD LED Frameless TV worth Php 24,490. You can connect your devices to it too and the internet, so you don't have to make a fuzz when you need to look up things on the web. It's only available from September 1 to 30, so hurry!
