Discovering the fan-favorite ginoo from "Maria Clara at Ibarra," David Licauco, in the spotlight.

We are all hooked on Fidel and how he is charming, a true gentleman and a romantic in the hit series Maria Clara at Ibarra. I know you want to know more about him, so we have an info sheet for you if you want to learn more about Licauco.

Here are some facts about the current internet boyfriend that everyone is gushing about:

Licauco, the second of four siblings, was born into a family of Filipino-Chinese business owners. He has a close relationship with his parents, Jac and Eden, as well as his siblings Elan, Jean, and James. Licauco, who is vocal and expressive of his love for them, is frequently seen leaving endearing messages on his siblings' social media pages.

The family of six is a modern Chinese family that, according to the actor, does not strictly adhere to traditions when it comes to choosing a partner. Anyone can get in line, people!

Licauco, who stands 5'11, was a shooting guard for the De La Salle College of Saint Benilde Blazers in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). After being involved in a car accident in 2013 in which he lost a friend, Licauco reevaluated his life goals and eventually gave up basketball. In an interview with Philippine Entertainment Portal in 2018, the actor discussed this.

In 2014, Licauco switched to modeling and competed in the Mr. and Ms. Chinatown pageant, where he finished first runner-up. He later became an endorser for several brands, appeared on magazine covers, walked the runways of local fashion shows, and even appeared on billboards.

Licauco also co-starred with Shaira Diaz in the 2019 romantic comedy "Because I Love You," for which he received the New Movie Actor award at the 36th PMPC Star Awards for Movies in 2021.

Licauco has a business management degree and runs several food businesses, including Kuya Korea, Sobra Comfort Food, Sobra Cafe, and As Nature Intended. During the pandemic, the actor began his brands on online platforms, then expanded into physical stores. Licauco also recently announced that Kuya Korea will be available for franchise soon.

Licauco worked hard to achieve his toned body, and it's not something the actor keeps to himself, as he has generously shared glimpses of his workout sessions with fans.

So far, Licauco has confessed to having crushes on Heart Evangelista, Julia Barretto, and Julie Anne San Jose. In previous interviews, Licauco raved about working with San Jose ("Heartful Café") and Evangelista ("Mulawin and Ravena"), whom he described as his "longtime crush," and expressed interest in working on a future project with Barretto.
