Just in case you have no idea who Richard Yap is, he starred as Papa Chen on My Binondo Girl & now as the lead actor in the teleserye Please Be Careful With My Heart, starring alongside Jodi Sta. Maria. He sometimes looks like a cross of Tim Yap, Herbert Bautista, Diether Ocampo & Ricardo Cepeda on some camera angles. But he's definitely a class act. Now in his mid-40s, he is giving young matinee idols a run for their money. And why not? It's boring to see all these young rehashed actors over & over on the same roles. We prefer seeing believable characters like Richard portrays that are also from the other parts of society. Way to go Richard! And to all those who are stuck in their careers, it's never too late to change gears & do something that you really love to do.
