Kim said that because of this, she is not expecting to have any plans on Valentine’s Day this year. “Naku, <i>hindi ko pa alam. Siyempre</i> February <i>ano pa lang ngayon </i>(laughs). <i>Hindi ko alam</i> Friday <i>ba yun? May</i> taping<i> ata yun,</i>” she admitted.</div><div><br/></div><div>The 23-year-old actress recently defended her love team partner Xian Lim against bashers who criticized him for allegedly snubbing Kim’s impersonator onstage during a live episode of <i>Banana Nite</i>. Kim admitted to the press that Xian was still very much affected by the backlash. This was also the reason why Kim said no one has asked her out yet for February 14. “<i>Wala pa, malungkot pa kasi siya chos</i> (laughs).<i> May iniinda pa kasi siya</i>,” she said, referring to Xian.</div><div><br/></div><div>Even though many assume she and Xian are already exclusively dating, Kim still refused to confirm or deny the real status of their close relationship. <i>“Kayo talaga, hindi naman kailangan mag-</i>open up, <i>Masaya naman yung mga tao, ganun. Okay na yun. Balato muna</i>,” she said.</div><div><br/></div><div>At this point, Kim said she is not expecting for anything anymore for Valentine’s Day. <i>“Ay wala, huwag ka na masyado mangarap para hindi masyado mataas yung</i> expectation<i> mo. Baka mag-</i>expect<i> ka ng</i> something <i>tapos hindi mangyari malungkot ka pa</i>. Chill <i>lang</i>, relax,” she advised.</div><div><br/></div><div>For Kim, a romantic Valentine’s date is not about spending the most money, but in being sincerely romantic. <i>“Hindi naman yun sa lugar </i>or <i>sa regalo na matatanggap mo</i>. It’s the feeling <i>na ipaparamdam sa iyo ng taong mahal mo. Yun lang yung importante, hindi na dito tayo sa bundok tayong dalawa</i> or<i> dito tayo sa dagat. Siguro sa</i> feelings<i> niyo na lang yun ang importante</i>,” she added.</div><div><br/></div><div>As one of the newly launched celebrity ambassadors of<i> GSK’s </i>Win Against Asthma campaign along with singer Arnel Pineda, Kim said she is proud to have overcome asthma five years ago. “<i>Matagal na hindi lang halata. Sanay na ako, meron lang akong </i>medication <i>sa</i> bag <i>ko</i> in case<i> kung ano mang mangyari sa akin </i>and may maintenance<i> naman. Siyempre hindi ko pinapakita pero ngayon nung tinanong ako ng GSK</i> if I want to be an advocate of this fight against asthma, <i>siyempre gusto ko maka</i>-inspire <i>ng mga kabataan na katulad ko na in</i>-asthma <i>nung bata pa. Siyempre sayang naman yung </i>life<i> kung indahin nila yung </i>asthma. So <i>magandang</i> advocacy<i> rin ito</i> to inspire people,” she shared.</div><div><br/></div><div>Kim also shared the precautions she takes to avoid having an asthma attack. “I always do workout <i>at saka</i> swimming <i>kasi yun nakakalakas talaga ng</i> breathing<i> hindi iiksi </i>so <i>yun yung natutunan ko,</i> medication and <i>hindi ko lini</i>-limit <i>yung sarili ko sa mga gusto ko gawin </i>so I think<i> ito yung magandang </i>advocacy<i> para sa may mga may sakit na</i> asthma,”<i> she said.</i></div><div><br/></div><div>The Kapamilya teleserye princess admitted she feels blessed in both her personal and professional lives this year. <i>“Siguro</i> I’m just very happy, very thankful and<i> sa lahat ng sumusuporta at nagtitiwala sa akin, salamat. Parang ang </i>the way of giving back<i> ko sa kanila </i>is <i>mapasaya ko sila sa ginagawa ko</i> and to inspire them. Thankful <i>ako kay</i> God, <i>sa</i> mama<i> ko</i> and<i> sa lahat talaga,</i>” she said.</div><div><br/></div>
