“Siyempre, Tito Boy, almost 8 years ako sa ABS. Feeling ko, nasa home ako talaga na safe ako doon,” the actor explained.

He also admitted that uncertainty became one of his biggest concerns after parting ways with the network.

“And parang ngayon na aalis ako sa ABS, nakakatakot, Tito Boy. Kasi hindi ko alam kung anong possibilities pa,” he added.

According to Aljon, the possibility of leaving ABS-CBN was already discussed long before the official release happened. He revealed that he and his managers had already talked about requesting his release from the company last year.

“Actually last year pa po kasi napag-uusapan na namin yan. Ako at ng managers. Nag-request na po kung pwede ako magpa-release for some reasons,” he said.

However, the request did not immediately push through at that time. The actor eventually received his official release not too long ago.

Despite the emotional transition, Aljon made it clear that he remains thankful to ABS-CBN for helping shape his career in showbiz.
