Yesterday, Kuya Kim Atienza shared a throwback photo that blew the minds of netizens! According to the post, it was during their family trip to Boracay wayyy back in 1990.
One of the country’s top news anchors and TV hosts, Kuya Kim posed on the beach with his dad, former Manila City Mayor Lito Atienza who was then 52 years old. Now 56 years old, he was surprised by how fast time had flown. “My dad was 52 here. I am 56 now. Dang, how time flies! Mas matanda na ako sa tatay ko,” he wrote.
However, what surprised netizens was Kuya Kim’s physique. One commented, “anong sinabi ng mga Korean oppa? Kabog!” while another one wrote, “nahiya kami sa abs niyo!”
It also caught the attention of fellow celebrities such as Kaye Abad who said, “Kuya Kim, pang-Bench ah!” and Chariz Solomon who typed in, “PAK!” Meanwhile, Geneva Cruz told him, “nice swim trunks! Dapat may ‘Then and Now’! KAYAAA! Haha!”
Fellow news anchors also joined the chat with JP Soriano saying, “Kuya Kim, ‘di kami prepared sa photo na ito! Pero thanks for sharing! Haha,” and Karen Davila who reminisced, “This is how you looked like when I met you in UP! You were fit, before pa!”
