Whether their reunion was planned or not, Sandara Park and Vice Ganda looked every bit the excited pair as the “It’s Showtime” host joined the 2NE1 member in a shoot for a Korean variety show.
In the video — which looked like a Kapamilya homecoming for the “Star Circle Quest” alum — the two are seen hugging, with Park even stomping her feet in excitement.

Behind-the-scenes photos from the shoot — reportedly for SBS Medianet’s “Idol Truck Project” — showed Vice Ganda and comedian friend Petite meeting the rest of the cast: rapper DinDin, WINNER’s Jinu, and musicians Aron and Kim Jonghyeon (JR), best known for their work with NU’EST.
In another video, the “Pinoy Boyband Superstar” co-judges and Petite danced to 2NE1’s “I Am the Best,” which the Korean singer sang acapella.

Park took to Twitter to tease fans of her return, posting photos of herself getting ready for a flight which she captioned, “Off to Clark, Philippines [Philippine flag emoji] [airplane emoji].”

In another tweet, she revealed that her trip to Clark, Pampanga will be a first for her, explaining that she usually heads straight to Subic.

According to a press statement issued by the Clark Development Corporation, the former YG artist herself and the production team “chose this [Clark] Freeport” to film content for the Korean variety show.
The statement further revealed some of the “chosen sites” for filming, which included Cafe B.O.M, Hotel Stotsenberg, and Hotel Seoul.
Lucky fans and spectators got to interact with Park, who — in one video — was shown selling skincare products while donning a Filipiniana.

In another video, the former Kapamilya actress was all business as she led her team in selling Korean products — proudly doing her sales talk in Filipino, as expected.

Earlier this year, it was reported that the singer would be returning to the country to host a K-pop concert scheduled for April. The concert, which was supposed to also feature her former bandmate Minzy, was later postponed. EDV
