Atom Araullo says being recognized for his looks became motivation to prove himself as a journalist:
"I mean, who am I to complain, right? Itโs not the worst thing in the world. Totoo, it can be awkward, especially since we do very serious stories. I always say that if Iโm the most interesting thing in this story, then Iโve failed in my work. So it became fuel for me to prove myself, to prove that Iโm more than just a pretty face. That I can actually do important stories and make an impact on the lives of the people watching the stories that we do."
