Actor McCoy De Leon has playfully addressed critics of his character in the hit series ‘FPJ’s Batang Quiapo.’

In a recent Instagram post, De Leon shared a dramatic scene featuring himself and actress Ivana Alawi, who plays “Bubbles” in the series. The scene shows a bloodied David, De Leon’s character, alongside Coco Martin, who is seen embracing Alawi.

“Maraming salamat po sa lahat ng tumatangkilik sa FPJ’s Batang Quiapo. ” De Leon wrote, expressing his gratitude to the show’s viewers. He added a teasing remark, “Hindi pa tayo tapos -David,” indicating that his character’s story is far from over.

The series has garnered impressive viewership, with an episode featuring De Leon’s character attracting over 600,000 viewers. Despite rumors last year suggesting that De Leon’s character would exit the show — fueled by a viral image of him lying in a coffin — David remains a strong presence in ‘FPJ’s Batang Quiapo.’
