1. Identify at least (10) iconic symbols relevant to our popular culture and categorize them depending
on their forms. (Music, Television, Sports, Toys, Comic Books, Advertising, Fashion, Magazine, Cyber
Culture).
These iconic symbols from the Philippines have a big impact on the youth today. For instance,
the love songs of Kundiman might be traditional, but they still touch young hearts because they speak
about love and longing - feelings that are timeless. Also, Darna, our homegrown superheroine, continues
to be an inspiration, showing young girls that they too can be strong and brave.
Social media has also played a huge role. AlDub, a love team that started on TV, became a
sensation online. This shows how the youth today use technology to connect with pop culture. Even
Jollibee, our beloved fast-food mascot, is a symbol of success that motivates young Filipinos to aim high.
And our traditional Barong Tagalog? It's being worn in new, modern styles, showing how the young
one’s respect tradition, but also aren't afraid to shake things up. So, you see, these symbols are more
than just icons - they're a reflection of how dynamic and vibrant the Filipino youth are today.
