The Kapuso actor and Delivery Boi star recently shared some of his most interesting memories from the program during his guest appearance on the “Chika Go!” segment of Chika Cart on Monday, November 9.
Rak Rak: Sense of Love is a dating reality and travel variety show filmed in Thailand. It featured single men and women from different countries who traveled together while exploring the possibility of forming romantic connections.
Vince was among the participants, known as “Sense Mates,” who joined the international program. Although he finished the show without finding a match, he looked back on the experience positively and considered it a worthwhile opportunity.

For the actor, participating in the show was not solely about finding romance. It also allowed him to discover new things, build friendships, and learn about different cultures.
“Well, noong sumali ako sa show na 'yon, fresh from PBB din ako no'n. Pumunta ako ro'n para ma-experience ko talaga kasi bago sa akin 'yon; magte-taping ako sa ibang bansa, tapos 'yung production Korean. Nakikilala ko rin 'yung 'housemates' ko na galing sa iba't ibang culture na marami rin akong natutuhan,” Vince narrated.
He also discussed the differences between working on a production in the Philippines and experiencing one in South Korea. According to Vince, the show's arrangement had similarities to Pinoy Big Brother, particularly when it came to their daily schedules and interactions with the production team.
“'Yung setup namin parang PBB. Ang nangyayari sa amin, mayroon din kaming morning call. Hindi naman nakatago 'yung mga cameraman,” he said.
One particularly amusing memory involved a question from the Korean production team about what the participants usually did after waking up.
When Vince mentioned that jogging was part of his morning routine, he did not expect the production team to take such an interest in the activity. They agreed to let him jog, with the cameramen following him as he ran so they could capture his morning routine.
"Pero ang nangyayari hindi naman nakatago 'yung ano 'yung mga cameraman eh. 'Di ba gising na ganyan tatanungin kami, "O, anong gusto naming gawin?" Sabi ko, "Ah, ano ah kasama sa morning ko magjo-jogging ako." So sabi, 'Sige, mag-jogging ka.' So ang nangyari sabi ko, 'Ah, okay sige.' Kasi nasa isang bahay kami eh, so wala masyadong rules na kailangan lumabas ganon. So, lumabas ako ganun. Takbo ako. Sinundan ako ng mga cameraman. May dala silang isang malaki tsaka meron din maliit. Tapos sabi sa akin, 'Vince, slow down please.'"
The experience gave Vince another memorable story from his time abroad, highlighting how even his ordinary daily activities became part of the show's content.
Despite returning home without a romantic match, Vince clearly gained something meaningful from the experience. His participation gave him an opportunity to explore a different entertainment environment, connect with people from various backgrounds, and collect memories beyond what he initially expected from a dating reality show.
Vince Maristela is a Filipino actor and model who started as a child star before joining the Sparkle GMA Artist Center as part of Sparkada. He has since appeared in various television shows and series, including Luv Is: Caught in His Arms and Encantadia Chronicles: Sang're.
In another report, Vice Ganda expressed admiration for Vince Maristela’s natural ability to make people laugh and his distinct personality. The comedian described Vince’s “lutang” or “sabaw” side as a gift that sets him apart. Vice even selected him to become her co-host on Gandang Gabi Vice. Aside from this opportunity, Vince is also part of the cast of Delivery Boi and a member of the TRGGRD! podcast.
Meanwhile, Vince Maristela joined veteran actress Charo Santos-Concio in an impromptu acting challenge at a recent fashion event. In a video that gained attention online, the Kapuso actor delivered the line “Dear Charo” using different emotions. He later thanked Charo and described her as a legend and an icon during the MEGA Ball 2026. Vince had previously gone viral after mistakenly giving Cory Vidanes as his answer instead of Charo Santos during an It’s Showtime segment.
