The
highly-anticipated team-up of Piolo Pascual and KC Concepcion will now be seen
on ABS-CBN's remake titled Lovers in Paris. The Philippine version of this Koreanovela will begin airing on September
28, 2009.
The two lovers will have a love triangle with Zanjoe
Marudo.
Director Eric Reyes pointed out, "Ibang klaseng chemistry ang mayroon kay Piolo and KC na nakatulong talaga sa
series dahil kapag nakita mo silang magkasama, tiyak na kikiligin ka. And they
gave their characters a fresh, new attack, kaya napaka-relatable sa viewers
natin. Filipinized talaga ang ibinigay naming lahat para sa manonood natin.
"Si Zanjoe, walang duda na kayang niyang
dalhin ang kahit anong karakter na ibigay sa kanya. Kaya bagay siya sa kahit
kaninong kapareha."
When ABS-CBN aired the original Lovers in Paris, viewers were astounded by
the unique love story that made the series one of the most-watched Asianovela.
Now, a Pinoy twist is added to the rosy love story of Carlo and Vivian.
In this TV series, they live in very different worlds: Vivian is a struggling student in Paris while Carlo (Piolo
Pascual) is the head honcho of a company. They meet in Paris when Vivian applies as househelp to
Carlo. When she gets the job, Carlo asks her to pretend to be
his fiancé for a corporate event. And the romance blossoms from that
one night. Martin (Zanjoe Marudo) is a relative of Carlo but he fights with the company president when he breaks the heart of Vivian.
