MANILA, Philippines -- Korean TV and radio personality Grace Lee said her family is not bothered by the attention they are getting after President Benigno Aquino III admitted that he is seeing her.

"They are dealing with it properly so I'm not worried about them," Lee said in an interview after a press conference for her newest endorsement with cosmetics brand Ever Bilena.

"You have to understand, my parents are immigrants here. They are Koreans. So they don't get in touch with the local news as much as the local people. They are aware of what's happening. They talk to me about how I am. They are concerned about me foremost but they are not letting it get in the way of whatever their daily lives are or even mine for that matter," Lee said.

Lee admitted that after the news broke out that she is seeing Aquino, she's now learning how to handle it.

"I don't feel the pressure but I'm learning my lesson as I go along," she said.

With the recent change in her life, she said her family and friends are the people who keep her strong even if she's being accused of taking advantage of being linked with the President.

"You know what? I'm sure people will say that about me but as long as my family and the people I love around me believe and know who I am, I can live with myself," Lee said.
