On December 8, a Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho special episode aired on GMA-7 where the team traveled to Denmark to celebrate their 15th Anniversary. It consists of a hashtag that nods to host Jessica Soho’s memorable and internet-famous line: #KMJSLumipadAngAmingTeam.
The special episode produced a LOT of entertaining memes, thanks to the one and only Jessica Soho.

However, one particular video clip stood out, and it was this footage of the broadcast journalist being forcefully fed with food while she was still speaking.

Pinoy netizens have definitely gotten a kick out of this, but it didn’t last long after a Twitter user questioned the humor behind the viral video.

This should have been cut from the editing room already. Not funny at all. Kahit kanino yan gawin. ?

Some agreed but majority understood where the man was coming from.
One justified that this is how comfortable Middle-Easterners are with people to the point that invade with personal space.

Another stated that perhaps the reason why this seems disrespectful is because it happened in a foreign country.
I mean if this was outside the Philippines then it must be local thing kaya bastos para saatin ?♂️

This Twitter user, on the other hand, told @ItsACsLife to educate himself with the culture before complaining.

Meanwhile, the internationally awarded news magazine show is consistently in Twitter’s trending charts and has been receiving sky-high ratings since the episode aired.
