What's their difference from other boybands? It's their manager, Katie from 3:16 Events who replies:

"Total package sila na hindi limited to singing and dancing lang," she says. "They went through rigid dance workshops under Mia Pangyarihan of SexBomb Dancers, voice lessons under Sweet Plantado of the Company personality development with a group of experts and acting workshop under PETA and Director Emman de la Cruz. In other words, they're multi-talented and very versatile. We made sure hindi sila hilaw kundi thoroughly prepared bago namin sila isinalang in performing."

The boys will now be having their first big concert at the Music Museum on February 27, with some special guests. They will sing songs of different genres. Is there any competition among them?

"No, we look at each other as brothers, not rivals or competitors," they say. "We are here to help and support one another. You can get us individually for acting or modelling, but as singers and dancers, we'll always be together as Clique5."
