Pretend Love Turns Real: Judy Ann Santos and Wowie De Guzman Revisit a 90s Rom-Com Classic

ABS-CBN Star Cinema has released the full 1998 romantic comedy "Muling Ibalik ang Tamis ng Pag-ibig" on YouTube, starring Judy Ann Santos and Wowie De Guzman. Directed by Boots Plata, the film follows Milet (Santos), a woman who hires Jay (De Guzman) as a pretend husband to escape an arranged marriage. As expected in a classic rom-com, the fake relationship blossoms into genuine love—until Milet discovers that Jay may have hidden motives. The movie, which captures the sweet and lighthearted tone of 90s Filipino cinema, is now available for free streaming on the Star Cinema channel.
