The two biggest challenges they faced before their debut were the ABS-CBN shutdown and the pandemic. The people behind the project also found it very difficult to navigate. However, they said that they’re still going through with the project.

Maloi shared that during the announcement of the network’s shut down, they all laid down in a circle and cried their hearts out. During that moment, they all let their emotions out as they held each other’s hands. 

One of the moments fans and casuals looked forward to the most was Aiah’s vulnerability in the teaser. In the clip, she was seen breaking down before BINIverse Day 1. Jhoanna quickly rushed to her side to assure her and held her hand until the curtain opened.

Aiah shared that it happened after BINI day. She, herself, was shocked by what transpired since she was still very bubbly before the event. Jhoanna said that Aiah held onto her really tightly after the event, leaning for comfort.
