MANILA (UPDATE) — ABS-CBN news personality Mario Dumaual and OPM singer Juan Karlos were included in the 2023 Top Trending Searches in the Philippines, as presented by Google.

Dumaual took the 6th spot in the Farewell category, while Juan Karlos got in the 9th spot for male personalities and his hit song "ERE" in the 2nd spot in the Songs or Lyrics category.

Dumaual, who would have turned 65 on July 31, passed away on the morning of July 5.

He was the quintessential showbiz reporter who adapted with the evolution of entertainment journalism from print to television to social media.

His byline and extro accompanied many Filipinos who kept tabs on local celebrities and their movies, TV shows, and events — from triumphs to controversies.

Meanwhile, Juan Karlos recently made history as "ERE" was hailed by Spotify as the most streamed local track in a day with over 1.2 million streams on the platform in PH this year.

"ERE" became a viral hit with its curse word on the chorus encompassing the emotion of heartbreak in the song. 

Juan Karlos is one of the stars of ABS-CBN's primetime series "Senior High" and has also sang a clean version of "ERE" in one of its episodes.

Google Philippines Head of Communications and Public Affairs Mervin Wenke said the company came up with its list after looking at an aggregate of data from January to Q4 to see what Filipinos have Googled for the year.

Wenke noted that interest in K-Drama is unique to the Philippines.

“That’s not present in other countries in Southeast Asia and it really speaks volumes about Filipinos’ love for Halyu or the Korean wave,” Wenke said.

Google also noted that TV shows and movies available on streaming platforms earned more places on this year’s lists, which lines up with the steady growth of online media consumption as projected in this year’s eConomy SEA Report.

"These top 10 lists serve as a record of the many events and issues that people have gotten caught up in over the year," Google said.
