Philippine sports couple Kim Kianna Dy and Dwight Ramos went out of their way to make a fan feel the love with a personalized greeting.
Dreams did come true for a teacher that was a big supporter of Dwight Ramos after she received a personal greeting from the basketball star for Teacher’s Day, thanks to the efforts of his partner, Kim Kianna Dy.
The teacher went viral for a video of her on social media where her students surprised her with an AI-generated greeting from Ramos, which had her jumping for joy already.
Dy, who is also an athlete herself with the PLDT High Speed Hitters in the PVL, was quick to see it and offered to make the AI greeting a reality with her partner. Dy’s comment quickly garnered thousands of likes.
“I can give you a real one po ma’am,” Dy wrote.
Not long after, Ramos did send over a real greeting video where he said the teacher’s name and greeted her a belated Happy Teacher’s Day.
“I hope to meet you soon,” Ramos said.
Both videos garnered likes on the TikTok account of one the students with the AI video reaching over 5.4 million people, while the greeting itself had 2.8 million views as well.
Comments also commended both Ramos and Dy for their effort.
“That’s such a sweet gesture from Kianna,” said one of the comments.
“OMG! The best talaga ang Kianna Dy at Saint Dwight,” another added.
Thanks to the two star athletes, what started out as a fun gimmick for their teacher turned out to be a dream come true.
