ANNE Curtis, Joshua Garcia and Carlo Aquino are set to headline the Philippine adaptation of the hit K-Drama “It’s Okay to Not Be Okay.”
The K-Drama was headlined by Kim Soo-hyun and Seo Yea-ji in Korea. The story revolves around Moon Kang Tae, a busy health worker at a psychiatric ward, and Go Moon Young, a successful but socially distant children’s book author. Despite their initial differences, they slowly help each other heal emotionally.
The Filipino adaptation of “It’s Okay to Not Be Okay” marks Anne’s television series comeback .
Meanwhile, Piolo Pascual, Kyle Echarri and Grae Fernandez are set to star in the series “Pamilya Sagrado.”
Arjo Atayde, Judy Ann Santos, and John Arcilla are set to headline the series “The Bagman.”
Also part of the 2024 offerings of ABS-CBN next year is the Philippine adaptation of “What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim?” starring Kim Chiu and Paulo Avelino. The series will be produced in partnership with streaming platform Viu.
Park Seo-joon and Park Min-young headlined the original K-Drama. The show is about a good-looking and self-centered vice chairman in a big company. His perfect life gets shaken when his highly skilled secretary resigns suddenly. He does everything to keep her, and they slowly develop romantic feelings for each other.
It was in November when it was announced that Kim and Paulo will be starring in the adaptation. Kim will be playing the role of Secretary Kim while Paulo will be portraying the role of Vice Chairman.
“We extend our heartfelt thanks to Viu for once again placing their trust in ABS-CBN as we embark on yet another exciting partnership. We are thrilled to bring the Philippine adaptation of a popular K-drama series to our viewers as we also showcase Filipino talent across the world,” Cory Vidanes, ABS-CBN’s COO of broadcast, said back in November upon the announcement of the adaptation.
