No need to wait for Valentine's Day when you can have a "boyfriend" this Chinese New Year.
Twenty-year old Agassi Ching has gone viral on social media after posting an advertisement of himself, ready to date whoever will "rent" him for P600 for the entire Chinese New Year.
On his Facebook post with now more than 10,000 shares as of writing, his bio says he is 5'8” tall, visibly Filipino-Chinese, "guwapo according to (his) parents," and with abs.
However, he also included a list of things his date should not expect from him, which includes speaking fluent Mandarin, make his eyes bigger, defend his date from flying cockroaches, and defer from taking an angbao, or a Chinese red envelope with money for good luck.
Good news: He is single.
Bad news: It was a prank post.
But the disclaimer on his now viral post did not stop thousands of potential dates from flooding his inbox starting this Wednesday night, when he posted the "ad."
In an interview with ABS-CBN News, Ching said he was overwhelmed by the number of response he got from the "entertaining" post.
"I've been getting a lot of responses from various people. It even reached Malaysia, Dubai, different countries," he shared.
The model and artist wannabe gained thousands of followers on his Facebook page, which now reached 19,000 from Wednesday's 7,400. About two thousand followers were also added in his Instagram account.
Despite the post being a jest he did to make his friends laugh, he appreciates the reactions he gained online.
Ching also believes that he will be lucky this year according to feng shui, which might also be the case for his love life.
"Right now, hindi ako nag-iisip sa relationship kasi focus ako sa career and business. But if I will be in a relationship this year, it will probably be a good thing. I'm gonna treat it as a blessing."
