JAKARTA - Virgoun Putra Tambunan, known as Virgoun, the vocalist of the band Last Child, did not expect his song, entitled Surat Cinta for Starla, to still be played and known to people until now.
After the song became an inspiration for making a film of the same name in 2017, now the Love Letter for Starla is presented in the form of a web series. The enthusiasm of the audience to watch the series is still the same, especially Jefri Nichol and Caitlin Halderman fans, the two main characters in the series.
"Yes, it's quite long, yes, the age of my work is that one. From 2017, it is known that people until 2023 still echo, it can be accepted that much, there are still many people who are enthusiastic about the story behind it," said Virgoun when met in Sarinah, Central Jakarta on Wednesday night.
Virgoun, who was also present at the event titled Ngobrol Bareng Cas Surat Cinta for Starla, revealed how the series and film, starring Nichol and Caitlin, had a big impact on his song for 5 years.
It's amazing Hema and Starla fans. It's amazing to bring him up but it's nice to see his enthusiasm. Almost 20 people who DM me on Instagram complained about a love story that 'don't fight, bro'. Yes, they got carried away, typically soap opera mothers who were carried away by the story of the Love Letter for Starla to the real world. Until my DM, even though I didn't have any intervention. But I think that's something cool," he said.
Virgoun also admitted that he was not surprised when he saw that many fans came to attend an event that was specially dedicated to fans of the Love Letter for Starla.
"I'm not surprised (with the fan response), typically mothers and mothers who are at home. My mother too, when watching soap operas on her own, is happy with herself. That's one of the greatness of story telling from the series that makes people get carried into the story," he concluded.
