Controversial OTWOL Scene Irks PNP, Apologizes

A controversial scene on the January 11 episode of ‘On the Wings of Love’ has caught the attention of the Philippine National Police.

During that scene, Clark (James Reid) stripped and danced in front of Leah (Nadine Lustre) during a bridal shower, while wearing the official uniform of the PNP. Most netizens and even police officers reacted negatively over the scene, claiming it to be disrespectful and irresponsible.

ABS-CBN later took notice of the incident and apologized for it. Here’s the full statement from the network.

“On the Wings of Love” would like to apologize for a short scene that aired last Monday (January 11), which unfortunately showed the main character Clark dancing as a policeman for Leah in her bridal shower. The program has called the attention of its production team and assures the public that there was no intention to disrespect the sanctity of the Philippine National Police (PNP) uniform. We do not want to jeopardize our good relations with the PNP and will make sure that it will not happen again.

The good thing is, though, ABS-CBN quickly responded to their feedback and no intervention from the MTRCB was needed. However, due to the negative reactions that surround the said scene, expect ABS-CBN to not upload the video on its official YouTube account, and could potentially pull the scene off the iWanTV website.

Still, ABS-CBN needs to learn a lesson from this incident. Taking a note from Coco Martin’s character in ‘Ang Probinsyano’ may even help them realize how hard-working, dignified and proud the men and women of the Philippine National Police are.
