When it comes to personalities, Juan Karlos or JK Labajo and his “High Street” character, Gino Acosta, are worlds apart. JK is known for his creativity and quirky flair, while Gino brings a serious and intellectual demeanor to the screen.

Ever wondered how these two compare? Dive into this edition of "Real High," where JK takes on a fun “this-or-that” challenge, comparing how his real-life preferences stack up against those of his “High Street” character, Gino.

When it comes to work habits, it’s clear that Gino prefers the grind of overtime, always ready to put in the extra hours. JK, however, values his break time. It’s essential to recharge and stay balanced, right?

As for getting around, both guys would rather be the driver than the passenger. Well, who doesn’t enjoy the control and freedom of being behind the wheel?

The style game is strong for both, with tattoos and piercings being a shared preference.

In the ‘smarts’ department, Gino is more book smart, diving deep into academic knowledge. JK, on the other hand, is all about street smarts, using his practical experiences and insights to navigate the world.

When it comes to communication, Gino leans towards words. JK, however, as a musician, has a penchant for blending words with melodies, and sometimes takes action.

Passion drives both gentlemen. For JK, it’s all about following his passions wholeheartedly, while Gino’s passion also fuels his actions and decisions, as we see in “High Street.”

Finally, in the realm of truth versus comfort, JK would rather face the painful truth, valuing honesty even when it’s tough. Meanwhile, Gino might prefer a comforting lie.

This playful challenge highlights the fun contrasts and surprising similarities between JK and Gino, showing that while they may differ in some ways, their core values align.

Catch JK—as Gino— in “High Street,” airing weeknights, on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live, TV5, and A2Z.
