 Ocampo, after his last teleserye ‘Apoy Sa Dagat’, said he has been busy studying at De La Salle where he settled in Ace Entrepreneurship program and is excited to go back for the series wherein he looks forward working with Santos again.

“I play the role of Anthony. So nagkaroon siya ng love interest dito pero ang tingin lang nung character ni Judy Ann sa kanya ay isang kaibigan lang so dun magkakaroon ng very interesting twist kasi another character will be coming in so magkakaroon ng love triangle. Isa akong parang homeless kid na inampon. My role was able to identify with this person na nagpalaki sa kanya and then nung pumasok siya sa isang academy nakilala niya yung character ni Judy Ann,” he shared.

The actor also added that he will finish schooling by 2016.

“I took this program under La Salle called the Ace Enterpreneurship program which I’m finishing by 2016. It’s about business. Since I was busy finishing my school program yun yung pinagkakaabalahan ko. I’ve been waiting for a good project and finally Dreamscape offered this and I’m very happy that they considered me. The reason why I was away for a few months siguro or a few years because I’ve been busy training and also studying. Aside from that I’ve been busy training horse riding, horsemanship,” he explained.

Ocampo also added that he is always grateful for his mother network for giving him quality projects and clarified the issue about him being picky in his projects.

“Well I guess I don’t think being picky is the right word. Siguro hindi lang fit, mahirap naman ipilit but of course I’m very thankful to those people who considered me of course. I’m always thankful. I think starting with this project I’ll be very busy na. Mostly finishing other small projects on the side,” he said.
