Chito expressed his pride in the group members who prioritized their lives over other distractions. Kapamilya stars Vhong Navarro and Jhong Hilario were emotional as popular dance group "The Streetboys" will reunite for a dance concert at the New Frontier Theater in Araneta City on Nov. 8.
"Yung saya ko ay sobra-sobra kasi for 31 years, ngayon lang namin naisip magkaroon ng reunion although hindi pa nabubura ang number namin sa kalendaryo na 31," said Jhong when asked how he felt about about the reunion during a press conference in Quezon City on Oct. 20. Jhong adeed: "At least nakapag reunion kami at nagkasundo-sundo yung mga oras.
Meron kasi kaming kasama na apat na OFWs: Joseph, Spencer, Michael and Sherwin. Nasa iba't ibang bansa sila and nagtugma ang schedule namin. "So this is the time na tinuloy na namin ang reunion.
Hindi na kami bumabata and gusto rin naman na magbigay ng pasasalamat para sa lahat ng sumuporta sa The Streetboys since Day 1. Magandang regalo namin ito sa kanila," said Jhong, now part of the popular noontime program "It's Showtime." Vhong expressed that he felt a combination of conflicting emotions regarding the upcoming reunion.
"May halong saya at lungkot ang reunion namin kasi after 31 years mangyayari na nga. Yung lungkot naman is kung bakit 31 years ngayon lang naisip? Pwede naman mas maaga di ba?" said Vhong, also one of the hosts of "It's Showtime." But Vhong said the group was formed with trust because they had no signed contract with Direk Chi.
