We never thought we'd see our fave breakfast pandesal and the iconic tito alcoholic drink "gin bilog" together in one meal! Netflix K-drama Vagabond has Filipino fans *giggling* because they spotted these two very Pinoy items in Episode 7 of the show.
In Vagabond, we see Bae Suzy's character Go Hae Ri sitting at a computer desk that's cluttered with various photos, a paper cup, headphones, and the VERY UNLIKELY combination that is pandesal and gin.
"Gindesal (gin + pandesal): Pampagising ba yan o pampatulog?" One Twitter user asked. Another joked: "At least may cameo na yung Philippines sa Vagabond. Nakaka-proud! Salamat sa gin at pandesal."
Some have theories: Maybe the director of Vagabond took a trip to the Philippines, encountered the very infamous (and affordable) gin, and decided to include it in the scene!
But we all know that the people we have to thank are the art department and production designers of the show. Thanks so much for this fun tidbit, you guys!
Vagabond tells the story of a stuntman (Lee Seung Gi) who investigates a mysterious plane crash that causes the death of his young nephew. During his personal ~mission~, he encounters secret service agent (Suzy) in Morroco, who's investigating the crash as well! Watch the trailer here:
