Kim told Pep.ph earlier this month that from her previous weight of 96lbs, she is now 108lbs. She added that she has to add a few more pounds since her role needs her to be in 115-120lbs weight range.

The drama-romance soap "Binondo Girl" is set to debut on ABS-CBN's primetime within this year. It will also star Kim's 3 leading men Xian Lim, Matteo Guidicelli and Jolo Revilla; as well as, veteran actresses Glydel Mercado, Cherie Pie Picache, and Ai Ai delas Alas.
