In a previous interview by ABS-CBN, Nancy revealed that taping the series is scheduled to start in February. It will be filmed both in the Philippines and South Korea.
The K-Pop star sensation, who is acting for a drama for the very first time, told ABS-CBN News that this experience is totally new to her.
“Different country, new culture, I’m very excited,” she said.
The series, which is written and directed by Antoinette Jadaone, said that the series will include 13 episodes, with a format patterned after US and Korean dramas.
James had previously worked together with Jadaone in the back-to-back hit teleserye, On The Wings of Love in 2015 and Til I Met You by 2016, repectively, where he starred alongside then-love team partner Nadine Lustre, and who later became his girlfriend for almost four years.
Meanwhile, James fans and the Netizens are looking forward to this new team-up.
