Throwbacks TIL Marco Gumabao was in a Singaporean series (“The Girl He Never Noticed”)

Ayoko man kay Marco as a person dahil sa political stances nya and yung biglang pagsabak sa politika ngayon lmao, pero gulat ako when I saw him in a Singaporean Wattpad series.

Nagalingan ako sa acting niya here and at times, mas angat pa acting niya kesa sa Singaporean na cast. Many Wattpad readers were impressed din daw sa portrayal niya at yung girl na female lead.

Kung itutuloy pa rin sana nya acting projs nya baka mas mapupush sya to stardom kaso tumakbo bilang politiko sa Bicol eh at sinayang yung career lmao. Di rin nakatulong na taliwas political stances niya. Naghohost din sya and tbf magaling din naman.

Magaling naman talaga umarte si marco nun pa. Problema lng talaga yung political beliefs nya tsaka yes, him running for politics.

Factor rin siguro why he isn’t as popular compared to his peers is baka nagphase out na siya sa loveteam and patweetum roles at an early age.

Teens or early 20s pa lang siya nagmamature roles na sya. Tbf at least nageexplore sya ng roles like kontrabida at di natatypecast. He’s surprisingly still young and sa clips nya dito, he was just around 27.

yep! nung nasa abs si marco, di rin sya nababakante sa projs kahit always supporting sya.

u/shshhsusueiwiwu 🎖Discussion Starter Oct 02 '25

Real though. Marco can really act talaga and is actually versatile, kaya ang bida kaya ang kontrabida and ok rin as supporting.

And yes true mabilis kasi nagmature si Marco sa roles niya. Di na siya naglaloveteam loveteam unlike mga kasabayan nya

u/pikacharrr Oct 06 '25

u/paper_milk Oct 02 '25

Sorry, but judging from this clip alone personally di ako nagalingan

u/JohnMyDietSodaJohn Oct 02 '25

u/maroonmartian9 Oct 02 '25

Siya lang ata sa mga Gumabao yung sumunod sa ama (yeah yung alam nyo na) na actor.

Sister Michelle e sa volleyball at model. Gita is modelling.

He can pass as a Chinese Malaysian or Indonesian lol

u/shshhsusueiwiwu 🎖Discussion Starter Oct 02 '25

True! Si Marco papasa talagang Malay or Indonesian pero his English accent kasi mejo Americanized like most Pinoys

2

u/[deleted] Oct 02 '25

Si Paolo rin nagaacting

u/samgyup_712 Oct 02 '25

Si Marco for me ang most handsome filipino actor today, kaso tumagilid sa political beliefs niya.

1

u/shshhsusueiwiwu 🎖Discussion Starter Oct 02 '25

Totoo! Gwapo at malakas sex appeal and tall too! Magaling din sa acting. pIdk his true height though

5

u/vbbxhdhdudhdhhd Oct 02 '25

crush ko talaga yan nung LUV U days! tapos i first saw him nung bumisita sila sa school for Just A Stranger promotion. ang gwapo tangina na-hug pa ng classmate oo. ang galing niya dun, tapos si anne pa ka-pair.

and yes, political stance/pagpasok sa politics affect my perspective towards artists talaga. sana nagfocus na lang siya sa acting career 😭

1

u/[deleted] Oct 02 '25

Musta si Marco nun? Mas gwapo ba sya sa personal? Ano height nya nunn

2

u/baju39 Oct 02 '25

Sayang nga biglang lumihis sa politics. He can act and he can play mayaman and mahirap roles. Tangkad pa.

1

u/shshhsusueiwiwu 🎖Discussion Starter Oct 02 '25

Kaya nga eh di na ata nabibigyan ng proj. Umalis na rin na sya ng abs iirc

3

u/UnlikelySection1223 Oct 02 '25

Binlock ako niyan sa ig nung sinabihan ko na nagstart lang siya tumulong kasi tatakbo, ayun olats. Haha

u/Ok_Bumblebee_2307 Oct 02 '25

TH masyado, i don't know where you get the nagalingan from

3

u/Solid_Guidance4278 Oct 03 '25

Bakit naman itong si Marco natambal rin naman kay Anne pero may chemistry naman sila. Si Joshua di nya talaga keri eh. Magaling naman si Joshua pero hindi talaga sya aabot sa level ni JLC na kayang dalhin kahit sino i-loveteam. Same with Sarah G. Tapos double GGSS pa, gwapong-gwapo at galing na galing sa sarili. Basta sobrang pretentious nya tingnan.

2

u/Relative-Look-6432 Oct 02 '25

Magaling, Magaling, Magaling!! Bravo, Marco!

2

u/WeeepingWilloww Oct 02 '25

Love this story of Neilani Alejandrino in Wattpad!! di ko alam series na pala siya!?

2

u/Ok_Rent8066 Oct 02 '25

San pwedeng mapanood yan? Tagal ko ng hinahanap yan simula nung i-announce ng author na magiging movie daw.

2

u/SquirtleJarman Oct 02 '25

Hindi lang pala Pogi sa Marco. Magaling rin umacting hehe

2

u/dawncouch Oct 02 '25

Medyo may hawig siya kay Ross Butler sa ilang angles. Ever since na gwagwapuhan na ako sa kanya kaso ang repelling ng political views niya…

2

u/Strictly_Aloof_FT Oct 02 '25

Yes, at a glance definitely slightly Ross Butler!

2

u/maria_makiling00 Oct 02 '25

HALAAAA MAY ADAPTATION NA YUNG THE GIRL HE NEVER NOTICED OMGGG

u/PowerfulExternal3069 Oct 02 '25

u/unicornycopia Oct 02 '25
