They found love at a perfect place, but they have yet to find out if they are truly the perfect pair.
In the Philippine remake of the 2004 Koreanovela hit “Lovers In Paris,” Vivian Vizcarra and Carlo Aranaz, played respectively by KC Concepcion and Piolo Pascual, continue to embark on a difficult journey towards proving themselves worthy of the love they found in one of the most romantic cities in the world. However, Martin Aranaz Barrameda, played by Zanjoe Marudo, also remains determined to prove them wrong.
Whose love will come out victorious? Who would have to let love go? The verdict is in, but the revelation is yet to unfold. After a three-month run, the program is set to air its final telecast this Friday, Dec. 11. Will it be a happy ending? If it is, whose happy ending will it be?
Ironically, for everyone involved in the hit series, no happy ending could wipe away the sadness looming in now that production is about to come to a close. “Parang kailan lang nung nag-uumpisa pa lang kaming kilalanin ang isa’t-isa,” recalls the show’s director, FM Reyes. “Ang bilis talaga tumakbo ng oras kapag masaya sa set,” he adds.
Piolo says he has nothing but fond memories to take with him from his “Lovers In Paris” stint, especially from the shoot they did in the City of Lights. This was the first time the actor truly enjoyed Paris, as he was given the chance to see it through the eyes of his very own leading lady. “Syempre lagi ko nang maaalala ‘yun tuwing mapupunta ako sa Paris,” Piolo admits.
KC, who finished her studies in the French capital, is also thankful for the opportunity to come back and make her own series in her previous home, and in the company of people she had come to love.
“Kung espesyal sa kanila yung time na yon, syempre mas espesyal yun sa akin,” confesses the young actress.
Even Zanjoe is unashamed to admit how sad he feels leaving this chapter in his career, which he fondly shared with some of the best actors among his contemporaries as well as a few established thespians in the industry like Christopher de Leon and Mark Gil. “Nakakalungkot talaga, lalo na kung naging close na kayong lahat sa isa’t-isa. Pero hindi ko makakalimutan lahat ng natutunan ko sa kanila,” Zanjoe shares.
“Lovers In Paris” is Zanjoe’s first dramatic vehicle in the Primetime Bida spot of ABS-CBN Channel 2 while it is KC’s first venture into the realm of television series and her first team-up with teleserye veteran Piolo Pascual.
