Maya Performs 'Gwiyomi' on Be Careful With My Heart (Video)

Jodi Sta. Maria's character in the hit daytime series Be Careful With My Heart did the 'Gwiyomi' or cutie song as part of Maya's graduation presentation which was aired Monday, May 13.

Maya, along with her fellow flight attendants, danced to the popular K-Pop hit on the said episode. However, Maya lacked the energy since someone is missing in this very special day—her sister Cristina Rose/Kute (played by Aiza Seguerra).

Joining the flight attendants are their families who are watching them on stage. Unfortunately, Sir Chief was late as he was stuck in the MRT after fetching Kute who just arrived from San Nicolas to attend Maya's graduation.

Do you think Sir Chief will also do the 'Gwiyomi' if he ever was present in time for the said presentation? Or maybe Maya will ask him to join the cutie song bandwagon some other episode?

Here's Maya doing the 'Gwiyomi' on Be Careful With My Heart.
