Romeo "Romy" Queddeng Pastrana (born October 5, 1958), professionally known as Dagul, is a Filipino actor and comedian best known for being a host of the children's sketch program Goin' Bulilit living legend. He has dwarfism.[1]
Career
From doing smaller roles in movies such as Isprikitik, Walastik Kung Pumitik (1999) and Juan & Ted: Wanted (2000), Dagul gained even more exposure when he became Long Mejia's sparring partner in GMA's sitcom Kool Ka Lang (2001). When Mejia transferred to ABS-CBN, Dagul followed him to the new station. Mejia became a regular co-host of Willie Revillame's Masayang Tanghali Bayan, while Dagul made guest appearances. After the tandem split up, Dagul, became a mainstay of the sitcom Ok Fine Whatever (2003) and Goin' Bulilit where he was the only adult in the children's Sunday gag show. Dagul was the only original cast member of Goin' Bulilit to remain in its entire run until 2019, as the children cast members "graduated" from the show once they became teenagers.[1]
Personal life
Dagul is married and has four children. Only his youngest daughter, Jkhriez Pastrana, inherited his dwarfism.[1][2] As of 2022, Dagul works at his local barangay hall as head of its command center and operates a small sari-sari store.[2]
