Proving looks do not matter in love

Elisse Joson and Kit Thompson prove that a person’s weight doesn’t matter when it comes to true love on this Saturday’s (March 9) “MMK.”

Ancel (Elisse) has always been insecure of her looks because of her heavy weight set. She is often used to connect suitors to her beautiful and thin friends.

That will all change when she meets Mark (Kit), the popular basketball player in their school who will fall head over heels in love with her despite her weight and insecurities.

Will their relationship stay strong and be able to withstand the judgment of other people?

Also in this episode are Epy Quizon and Bernard Palanca. It is under the direction of Barry Gonzales and written by Joan Habana.

Meanwhile, the “MMK” episode last Saturday (March 2), entitled “Mansanas,” fetched a new all-time high national TV rating for the show for 2019. The episode, which told the story of a man who persevered against the odds to finish his studies, received a rating of 30%, 13.5 points higher than “Magpakailanman” (16.5%), according to data from Kantar Media.
