Aside from the ratings game, JK’s first “MMK” also dominated Twitter. The show’s official hashtag #MMKJuanKarlos became one of the worldwide trending topics as netizens took on the microblogging site to share their thoughts about the inspiring life story of the 13-year-old singing heartthrob who did not let go of his dream of becoming a singer despite growing up without a complete family and his mother’s death days before his “The Voice Kids” audition.
Meanwhile, the upcoming “MMK” episode will continue to inspire viewers through a touching drama episode that shares the story of Joshua (to be played by Louise Abuel and Benjamin de Guzman) who, at the age of 6, left his family in Antique with the hope of having a better life.
