There’s a brand-new youth-oriented program set to capture the hearts of Filipino viewers!
Building on the success of its popular teen drama, MAKA, GMA Network is set to launch the series’ highly anticipated spinoff – MAKA LOVESTREAM – this Saturday, September 6.
This new youth-oriented program will feature the original cast in fresh roles, exploring diverse stories of love, dreams, friendship, and family.
MAKA LOVESTREAM will showcase a different love story each month, captivating audiences with new worlds.
The first installment, 28 Days, stars singer-actress Zephanie as Faith — a cheerful K-culture fan determined to manifest her dreams through a 28-day ritual. As the family breadwinner caring for her ailing father, Faith has no time for romance until she crosses paths with Shan Vesagas as Joaquin, a brooding Manila boy with anger issues and a haunting viral past. Drawn to her warmth, Joaquin finds a calm he didn’t expect. But is he destined to derail Faith’s manifestations — or become the love she never asked for?
Zephanie gave the viewers a glimpse of what viewers can expect from her character on the first installment of MAKA LOVESTREAM.
“One thing that I find very similar to the characters na I’ve done before is laging hopeful talaga siya. Pero this time, I think, mas hina-hide ko ‘yung pain. Compared to Zeph Molina, ito ‘yung ‘di ko puwede ipakita, kailangan strong ako,” she shared.
Meanwhile, Shan highlighted the collaborative environment on the set, crediting director Frasco Mortiz with helping the cast bring their characters to life.
“Si Direk Frasco po, lagi kaming kinakausap. [He guides us] with the lines. Binibigyan niya po kami ng freedom to change the lines to better fit our personalities,” he said.
Adding to the star-studded cast are '90s youth-oriented show icons Angelu de Leon and Bobby Andrews, who reunite on-screen as Faith’s parents.
The MAKA barkada remains complete with Josh Ford, Marco Masa, Ashley Sarmiento, Anton Vinzon, Chanty, Sean Lucas, John Clifford, Olive May, Bryce Eusebio, Mad Ramos, Bangus Girl, and Elijah Alejo — all taking on exciting new characters.
Catch the premiere of MAKA LOVESTREAM on September 6, airing every Saturday at 4:45 PM, right after Wish Ko Lang! on GMA and Kapuso Stream.
