Sa ginanap na press conference ng upcoming Afternoon Prime series na Magkaibang Mundo, ikinuwento ni Ms. Gina Alajar kung ano ang nakapagpapayag sa kanya na tanggapin ang kontrabida role na Noreen. Ilang programa na rin ang naidirek niya rito sa Kapuso network, at siya rin ngayon ang acting coach ni Maine Mendoza.

Aniya, hindi niya inasahang babalik siya sa pag-arte ngayon.

"Kasi after taking over The Half Sisters from Direk Mark Reyes, I thought mayroon akong idi-direct na bago. But then, ang sumunod na tawag na ito nga, para maging artista. Parang natanong ko, 'Bakit ako biglang mag-aartista?' Ang sabi ng tumawag sa akin, kasi GMA wants to have a different look in the Afternoon Prime. Na-elate naman ako, parang I will make a difference in the afternoon if I start acting again. Tapos sinabi sa akin, maganda ang role kaya naisip nila na ikaw ang artista," she shared with members of the entertainment press in a panel interview.

Aside from being the main kontrabida, Direk Gina also liked the creative team's suggestion of changing her look.

"Nang nag-uumpisa na kami, nagpaplano na, biglang sabi nila sa akin, 'We want to make you different. 'Yung itsura mo, ganun. The creative [team] wants you to have white hair.' Parang si Meryl Streep sa The Devil Wears Prada. Sabi ko, 'Oh, okay! Sige!' Tapos nagtuloy-tuloy na, na-excite na ako at hindi ako nagsisisi na tinanggap ko ang proyektong ito na mag-aartista ako ulit. I'm loving it actually."
