<div><img src='' alt='122612-zanjoe_main.jpg' width='305' height='290' align='left' border='0'>Zanjoe Marudo considers it a good thing if other people choose to believe that he has become a better actor ever since he and Bea Alonzo started dating. As it is, an entertainment reporter pointed out that he's like Ryan Agoncillo whose acting skills became more evident when he dated Judy Ann Santos. Zanjoe maintained, however, that he doesn't intend to compete with Bea who is an established dramatic actress. </div><div> </div><div>'<i>Magandang bagay yun kung totoo yung mga ganong nangyayari. Hindi ko naman inisip na kailanggan ko maging magaling dahil magaling</i> girlfriend<i> ko. Kasi magkaiba naman kami, babae naman siya, lalaki naman ako. Ayoko lang magkaroon ng kompetisyon </i>between us. <i>Ang kalaban ko naman sarili ko, hindi si </i>Bey (pertaining to Bea). <i>Kasi mas maganda yung natututo ako. Siya gusto niya maging magaling sa bawat ginagawa niya, ganon din ako</i>.'</div><div> </div><div>He further shared that they are both supportive of each other's accomplishments. As a matter of fact, Bea's excited to watch his portrayal in<i> One More Try</i> together with their friends. '<i>Gandang-ganda siya sa </i>trailer at excited <i>na siya panoorin ang One More Try. Nagse</i>-set <i>kami ng isang araw kasama</i> family and friends, <i>panonoorin namin kasi ayaw rin niya palagpasin ito e</i>. Excited<i> din siya sa akin sa</i> project <i>na ito. Sa 24/7 In Love lagi niya akong pinupuri</i> after<i> ng </i>movie.' </div><div> </div><div>When asked how he feels that he seems to be a good influence on Bea, he agreed that it's good to see that she has learned to be more relaxed around other people. '<i>Si</i> Bea <i>naman mabait na tao talaga kahit hindi pa niya ako nakakasama. Nung naging kami, siguro mas napansin lang ng tao na mas </i>approachable<i> na siya, mas madali batiin o kausapin. Kasi dati siguro medyo mahiyain pa, trabaho lang, uwi, takot pa makipag</i>-close <i>sa mga tao. Pero ngayon nalaman na niya, naintindihan na niya na ok lang naman makipagkaibigan</i>.' </div><div> </div><div>In return, Zanjoe didn't deny the fact that Bea has inspired him to work harder and explore his capabilities as an actor. '<i>Oo naman</i> [positive influence <i>siya</i>] <i>kasi pumogi ako nung naging kami. Sabi ng mga tao, swerte ko daw e. Hahaha! Marami</i> [<i>siyang naituro</i>] <i>kasi si </i>Bea <i>mataas ang pangarap.</i> So <i>nakaka</i>-inspire<i> na may kasama kang ganon. Hindi siya ok na sa ganito. Napakataas ng mga pangarap niya,</i> so <i>kailangan mo suportahan at pwede ka rin naman pala mangarap ng mga... Ako kasi napakasimple ko</i>. Ok<i> na ako sa simpleng buha</i>y. So<i> nagma-</i>match <i>kaming dalawa</i>.'</div>
