In Kung Ako'y Iiwan Mo, Jake Cuenca's character is torn between his love for the characters of Bangs Garcia (left) and Shaina Magdayao (right).










Kung Ako’y Iiwan Mo, ABS-CBN’s first "OFW-serye" continues to pay tribute to the hardworking overseas Filipino workers worldwide.

Topbilled by Jake Cuenca, Bangs Garcia, and Shaina Magdayao, Kung Ako'y Iiwan Mo is the first drama series made for the OFWs and about Filipinos working abroad.

"It will truly capture the lives of millions of OFWs around world. We took scenes in the actual workplaces and homes of Pinoys in the Middle East, particularly in Doha, Qatar,” said Manny Palo, one of the directors of the drama series.

Because of its unique narrative, Jake, Bangs, and Shaina are proud to be part of this project.

“It was a good experience because it was like an immersion for us. Here, the viewers will witness what OFWs, their families, and loved ones have to go through just to earn a living,” Jake said.

As a son of former OFWs himself, Jake can relate to the story of their series. He shared, “I know how hard it is for OFWs to be away from their families. I experienced longing for them and getting worried about their safety.”

Meanwhile, Shaina admitted that she was initially wary about accepting the role. “At first, I was hesitant because this is indeed a huge project. However, I realized how privileged I am to portray as an OFW. We all know how OFWs work hard just to give their families a comfortable life,” Shaina revealed.

Like Shaina, Bangs also appreciates the social relevance of this TV show. “I believe that ‘Kung Ako’y Iiwan Mo’ can help OFWs in making other Filipinos, especially those who are left here in the country, realize the many sacrifices that they are making for their loved ones.”

Continue to discover the story of how love, family and hard work change the lives of Paul (Jake), Mia (Bangs) and Sarah (Shaina). How will love change their fate and destiny?

Joining Jake, Bangs, and Shaina in Kung Ako’y Iiwan Mo are Gloria Diaz, Sandy Andolong, Maria Isabel Lopez, Ronnie Lazaro, Dick Ysrael, Nikki Valdez, Jojit Lorenzo, Ron Morales, and David Chua. It is directed by Manny Palo and Lino Cayetano.

Dubbed as the first "OFW-serye," Kung Ako’y Iiwan Mo airs after Mundo Man ay Magunaw on ABS-CBN’s Kapamilya Gold.

    MissHugoBacungan - pinapakita mo nanaman kung gaano ka lang ka boboness... ayusin mo yang sinasabi mo dahil WALA KANG ALAM. Bilang isang OFW ng UAE, lahat pinapakita nila sa teleserye na ito ay kasalukuyang nangyayari. It is a reality that everyone should know. NAGTATAKSIL?? oo! UNFAITHFUL? oo! IMMORAL?? oo! tsk!tsk!tsk! Di mo alam kung anong hirap ng mga dinaranas ng ibang kababayan natin na nagiibang bansa.

    INFIDEL. Ang sama sama naman ng attitude ng ABS CBN para isipin na lahat ng OFWs ay NAGTATAKSIL sa mga asawa nila tulad ng pinalalabas nila sa programa nilang Kung Ako'y Iiwan Mo! Parang second class ang trato ng DOS sa mga OFWs!

    INSULTO. Napakalaking insulto para sa mga OFWs at mga pamilya ng OFWs ang walang kwentang teleserye na ito ng ABS CBN. Parang nilalait ng ABS CBN ang mga OFWs at pamilya nito sa pagpapakita na mga UNFAITHFUL at puro kalokohan ang ginagawa ng mga PINOYs OFWs sa abroad. SHAME shame shame on you ABS CBN!
