Kim Chiu Living A Dream with Latest Successes

Award-winning Kapamilya actress Kim Chiu continues to receive more blessings this year. After her blockbuster hit movie “Bakit Hindi Ka Crush Ng Crush Mo?” and the Best TV Drama Actress she bagged from the recent EdukCircle Awards, Kim clinched new success as the pilot episode of her “Wansapanataym” special won the national TV ratings game. 

According to the data from Kantar Media last Saturday (September 7), Kim’s “Wansapanataym” special recorded 31.9% national TV ratings, compared to the 18.2% of its rival program in GMA “Vampire Ang Daddy Ko.” 

Meanwhile, Kim pays her blessings forward this Saturday (September 14) as her character Elyza takes on a new mission in the continuation of “Wansapanataym Presents My Fairy Mayordoma.” Now that she is a maid because of the Fairy Mayordoma’s (John ‘Sweet’ Lapus) punishment, Elyza needs to grant the wishes of two more househelpers so she can go back to her old life. 

What challenges will Elyza go through in the new family that she is about to serve? How will the treatment of her new bosses change her perspective in life? 

Also in “Wansapanataym Presents My Fairy Kasambahay” are Joseph Marco, Shamaine Buencamino, Miguel Vergara, Arnold Reyes, Peewee O’Hara, Ian Galliguez, and Angel Aquino. It is written by Arlene Tamayo, and directed by Jerry Sineneng. 

Don’t miss the continuation of Kim’s magical ‘fairy’ tale this Saturday in the newest month-long special of the storybook of Pinoy kids, “Wansapanataym,” after “Kapamilya: Deal or No Deal” on ABS-CBN.
