TV host Grace Lee is ready to give up her Korean citizenship to become a naturalized Filipino.
In an interview with Push, Lee, who was born in Korea to both Korean parents, said that she is hoping that she will become a Filipino in the eyes of the law as soon as possible.
She added that the naturalization of her Filipino citizenship is already in the process.
“Pinanganak ako sa Korea pero lumipat ako sa Pilipinas bata pa lang ako. Permanent resident ako actually (sa Pilipinas) and under process na yung nationalization ko.
“So, hopefully, very very soon, Filipino na rin ako. Kasi sa puso Pilipino na ako, eh, sa papeles lang hindi, eh, di ba?
“Kung kailangan talagang i-give-up, wala namang problema sa akin. So, pinag-aaralan ng mga lawyers ko yon, tingnan natin. Hopefully, soon I’ll be able to get my Filipino citizenship,” she said.
She also shared in the same interview that she is looking forward to going back to hosting after taking a break to prioritize some businesses.
Recently, she signed a contract with Viva and she said that she is open to trying out other career opportunities in showbusiness asie from hosting.
