Even though it’s been several years, singer and actor Juan Karlos “JK” Labajo still wants to reconcile with fellow artist and former friend who had a fight with him before.
In the vlog of talent manager and entertainment columnist Ogie Diaz, JK recalled that he had experiences where a situation grew about him that he had nothing to do or have anything to do with.
“That person thought I did because he believed what other people said more than his own friend,” said JK.
He said, it would be too late if he would explain about the said issue, especially since no one really believed him when it first happened. JK further explained that he will not speak anymore because he knows that people will only think that he is defensive and a liar.
Ogie also asked if he thought they would ever say hello to the person he had a fight with, without mentioning the name.
Ang sagot ni JK, “Oh, definitely. I mean, that kind of conversation, we have a lot of mutual friends and ako, ever since, from my perspective, I already forgave on what I can forgive.”
But the singer and actor admits, the painful thing about what happened to him is that his former friend didn’t even talk to him, especially since he wasn’t the one who did what they fought about.
“Before the whole thing blew up, I messaged this person directly. Like ‘Hey, just want to let you know, this is not this, I didn’t do this, I didn’t do that,’” sabi ni JK, ngunit aniya, hindi ito naniwala.
“‘After that happened’ he answered what. “then I, of course, as a brave Bisaya, was like ‘Ah, okay, I’ll answer online,'” continued the singer-actor.
JK continued, it was also painful for him to be outed as homophobic especially since he grew up with a gay family member.
“I grew up with my gay family member, listening to Mariah Carey. The first language of love that I knew was that. And ever since I was a kid, that was something I never questioned. I don’t have my opinion because I really don’t care in sense na whoever you are, go. Kung saan ka masaya, push! Kasi that was never the issue to begin with e,” sabi ng singer.
But JK admitted, he understands the pain this person also went through because of what happened.
“I also wish for reconciliation and everything kasi at the same time, it’s a small world and ever since I got here, that person I’ve always seen as my sibling,” sabi niya.
