If you’re subscribed to the world’s top streaming platforms, know that you’re in the zeitgeis meaning that you’re watching programming that the rest of the world is loving at the same time. It so happens that a key element of that programming is teen content. iWantTFC, the world’s leading Filipino streaming platform, understands exactly the vox populi in the market when produced “He’s Into Her”, a coming-of-age teen romance series that follows the haters-to-lovers story arc, which became the number one most watched series on the platform in 2021. Quite phenomenal, given that the cast at the time was largely unknown.
Fast forward to 2022 and you have lead stars Donny Pangilinan and Belle Mariano now known to millions of fans under the portmanteau, “DonBelle”, making their highly anticipated return to bring more teen romance excitement and lessons on family and friendship in “He’s Into Her Season 2”. The new season will premiere first on iWantTFC on April 20 for Premium users outside of the Philippines before it premieres on April 22 in the Philippines and Indonesia.
CRITICAL AND COMMERCIAL TRIUMPHS
“He’s Into Her” was the recipient of three awards at the 2021 Asian Academy Creative Awards for Best Direction (Fiction), Best Original Program by a Streamer/OTT, and Best Theme Song or Title for “He’s Into Her” (BGYO). The series was also the lone Philippine nominee in the Cross Platform Programming category at the 2021 Venice TV Awards.
In “He’s Into Her Season 2,” former enemies turned lovers Deib (Donny) and Max (Belle) are officially the newest power couple in Benison International school. Their relationship seems to be smooth sailing until problems from their past begin to haunt them and unanswered questions start to resurface. Deib and Max will face the highs and lows of a young couple as they endure real problems that come with a more mature relationship.
A GROWING CAST OF YOUNG STARS
The hit romance series also gets exciting as the tight group of friends composed of Lee, Naih, Michiko, Ysay, Lorde, and Migz (Joao Constancia, Criza Taa, Kaori Oinuma, Vivoree Esclito, Gello Marquez, and Limer Veloso), gets entangled in more teen drama, including an unexpected love triangle, another chance to rekindle a romance, and a heartbreaking realization when one suddenly gets ghosted.
