Actually yung mga supporters namin nag-tweet sila nung nalaman nila may may-MMK episode kami ni Karina. Parang nag-look back sila nung 2019 kasi nag-po-post sila na parang nag-re-request sila na sana magkaroon ng MMK episode ang KarJon. So after three years nagkatotoo. So parang dun papasok sa ‘yo na may pinupuntahan itong ginagawa namin and nakaka-proud pa din at the same time. And yung supporters namin hanggang ngayon nandito pa rin sila para sa amin and siyempre nakaka-excite pa rin na nagkakaroon kami ng bagong experiences at nagkakaroon kami ng mga goals na na-a-achieve namin. So fight lang,” he said. <div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2021/9/9/fresh-scoops/aljon-mendoza-and-karina-bautista-reveal-the-first-195638">READ: Aljon Mendoza and Karina Bautista reveal the first time they ever said ‘I love you’</a></div>In their episode titled “Love Ko ‘To,” Aljon and Karina’s characters start off their love story in a fast food restaurant. “Ako dito si John. He’s very charming and a genuine person siya. Pero sa kabila nun may baggage siya eh. Parang meron siyang kinikimkim na dala niya dahil sa tatay niya. Kasi iniwan sila ng tatay niya dahil sa babae. So insecurity niya yun paglaki niya. Then ayun naging supportive na boyfriend siya kay Tessa and very cheerful. Pero habang tumatagal kasi hindi mo maiwasan na lumalaki yung insecurity niya so parang yun yung magiging problema kapag dumaan yun,” Aljon explained. <div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2021/3/12/fresh-scoops/karjon-denies-competing-with-other-love-teams-we-192232">READ: KarJon denies competing with other love teams: ‘We want to be different’</a></div>Off camera, Aljon said his love team partner has many traits that makes her good girlfriend material.“Si Karina kasi, she makes time for you kahit gaano siya ka-busy. Kung gusto niya, gagawan niya ng paraan. Ganun yung sigurong love language niya. So para sa akin malaking factor yun,” he admitted.But KarJon fans will have to hope and wait longer for a real-life love story according to the MMK actor.“Sa ngayon walang ligawan na nangyayari. Magkaibigan lang na magkatrabaho, partner talaga. Pero if ever man, kung dadating man kami doon, wala naman sigurong reason para itago siya. Kung mangyari eh di mangyari. Hindi naman siguro yun makakaapekto sa kung ano mang gagawin naming trabaho para sa min. So if ever man, siguro hindi naman namin itatago. Sa ngayon, sobrang goods kami ni Karina,” he added.
