She said that she was not aware of the rumors going around. According to her, she was surprised when many people reached out to her to apply for a job.
"Once and For All. No, it is not true. There has been no communication whatsoever between myself and anyone officially representing former Senator and tycoon Manny Villar’s supposed new network," she wrote.
"After the online article came out I was surprised people were applying for jobs to me. I was not aware of the news circulating. My press agent called and said I needed to issue a statement. I said, “Huway? About huwat?”. Anyway, I did a short one. Seems it wasnt enough," she added.
Furthermore, Korina also elaborated some facts about her, refuting all of the rumors. It includes the fact that she's happy to be working with TV5 and A2Z.
"1. Im thrilled to be called a “fab hunter”.
2. Im a Lara Croft in many ways but I hardly ever “raid”. And, in this case, I havent “raided” any workforce to try and pirate people to work for the Villar network, or any other network.
3. If at all, Ive only called my good friend Cheryl Favila and Maricar Asprec once or twice to ask if either of them know of anyone without work—- because I have work waiting for my own show Rated Korina airing on both TV5 and A2Z. Cheryl and Maricar are not “helping me pirate people”. Chair is lucratively freelance as she is.
4. I have not given any interviews about working with the Villar channel. Im not sure where the quotes are coming from. But it is true that the heads of all these networks are friends to me, and me to them.
5. I am a broadcaster and journalist and creative mind at heart. It is what I do best, I think. I produce my own shows now. So, whenever and wherever I am welcome, and there is an opportunity, I will listen and possibly collaborate. I am very happy being in TV5 and A2Z as a line producer via Brightlight."
