The Kapamilya network and one of the leading publishers of romance pocket books have signed the deal last February 12. Present in the contract signing were ABS-CBN Head for TV Production Cory V. Vidanes, Direk Lauren Dyogi Precious Heart Romances Publisher Jun Matias, and Precious Heart Editor-in-Chief Edith Garcia.

Direk Lauren will be spearheading this project and he talked about what viewers can expect from these stories. “First time ito for ABS-CBN that we acquired lots of titles para gawing teleserye. Gagawin natin ang ‘Bud Brothers’ na isinulat ni Rose Tan at ‘Kristine’ na isinulat ni Martha Cecilia. Usong uso naman ngayon ‘yung libro na ginagawang TV series o pelikula tulad ng Harry Potter at Twilight. Maraming elemento sa libro ang sigurado akong magugustuhan ng mga tao kapag napanood nila sa TV. ‘Yung mga libro nina Rose Tan, Martha Cecilia, at iba pang writers, binabasa mo pa lang nakikita mo na kung paano siya lalabas sa telebisyon. Ang lakas ng kilig, ng romance element, kaya maraming makaka-relate.” Read More: ABS-CBN.COM I
