- Synopsis
- Bagyo loses his job at a prominent political party. His newly unemployment endangeres his wedding plan. And on top of that and his money is stolen by a group of thugs. Fed up with problem over problem, Bagyo rashly chooses to go after the thugs who are in the process of robbing a famous actress. Bagyo shows up just in time to stop and beat them senseless. The incident catapults Bagyo to stardom. Bagyo’s apparent bravery becomes major news and his name mentioned in many local and national media. Another prominent political party wishes to use Bagyo’s popularity to attract votes for the upcoming legislative election. Having grown too cocky and too sure of himself, Bagyo confidently accepts the offer. He then starts to campaign on behalf of the party at a very isolated village where many of its inhabitants are living in severe poverty. With no political experience to speak, he’s struggling to gain the people's attention. It turns out that no one in the village has even heard of him and his heroism. Bagyo has to find his own way to introduce himself and then garner sympathy. Bagyo eventually comes to realize that there are more important things than just being famous and popular. The villagers know what they need the most. They much prefer honesty, sincerity rather than the empty rhetoric of a political campaign.
