00:00 It became easier because of our personalities.

00:03 We're different, we're opposites.

00:05 So if one of us is stressed, we balance out the other.

00:09 I think we're very understanding of each other's situation.

00:13 The available products in WPH are beauty products.

00:20 We have washes, we have swims, we have naked and daily.

00:23 And I think this is just the start of something so much bigger.

00:28 Which is a new bridge, a new connection from Korea to the modern Filipinas.

00:37 So my fear is that Korea will be towards different parts of France.

00:45 We really need to use the factories that are being made.

00:49 We'll try to use each product and we have to curate the product that will be good for the Filipinas.

00:58 And I think that's something that we can offer.

01:03 The uniqueness of the products that we're creating.

01:07 It's not available here in the Philippines yet.

01:11 And all of the products are personally created by the three of us.

01:15 Not just the first, but the majority.

01:17 What's funny is, that's also the reason why I started doing it in the first place.

01:24 I really wanted to go out of my comfort zone.

01:28 I want to be careful what you ask for.

01:31 That's what motivated me.

01:35 But the first few months, even before this event started,

01:40 that's the reason why I was nervous.

01:44 Because it triggers the doubts in me.

01:46 Is this right? Is this the right start?

01:48 Is this the right thing to do?

01:51 We have invested so much time, effort, and of course, the expenses are also there.

01:58 But I don't lose my fear when I'm with you.

02:03 The meaning of this is, that's the reason why I'm nervous most of the time.

02:08 That's when I start to fear.

02:11 Whenever we see each other, we're like, "Okay, we got this. We got this. We got this."

02:17 So we do it together.

02:19 Whenever we have a preparation, we message each other.

02:23 There are long messages.

02:26 That gives a lot of confidence.

02:29 We get energized and inspired.

02:33 Although we have some doubts, we have more optimism that this would work out.

02:44 It's a good thing that we're trying to be a product that can be heard by people.

02:50 It's not just a Korean product, but it's a brand.

02:56 Best in Korea, Hidden Gem.

02:59 It's easier because we have different personalities.

03:04 We're opposites.

03:05 So when one is stressed, we can balance out.

03:09 I think we're very understanding of each other's situation.

03:14 It's our first time, both of us, to start any business.

03:18 It feels good to have each other.

03:22 You know what your hustle is like.

03:24 Whenever you feel scared and doubt, that's a good sign.

03:32 You're growing. That's a sign that you will be growing in the future.

03:38 You have to let it out.

03:40 You have to express yourself.

03:42 You can't really let fear win all your life.

03:45 So you're going to see the best of yourself.

03:49 You don't need to be scared.

03:51 It's okay to fail.

03:53 Don't be scared of failure.

03:55 At least you learned something.

03:57 You're better at it.

03:59 Before trying, you won't lose.

04:03 Especially when you're investing in yourself.

04:05 Even if you don't get the outcome you want or what you expect,

04:09 business is a failure.

04:13 You still have to learn from what you did.

04:16 It's not what you expect.

04:19 You know what you need to adjust the next time you do it.

04:23 I think it's so important to build yourself confidence.

04:27 You're around the people who support you.

04:34 I think the next step is to really focus on getting the products out there.

04:41 Now that you launched the website,

04:43 you want to add more products and explore what you can for the next stage.
