Directed by Antoinette Jadaone and JP Habac, the Kwentong Jollibee 2022 Valentines series tugs the heart of Filipinos with stories of finding real love.

“As in our past runs of Kwentong Jollibee, our goal is to celebrate the uniqueness of each love story and showcase the timeless lessons that can inspire and give hope to our viewers. All three episodes are anchored on powerful truths that surfaced during these challenging times when all kinds of relationships were somehow put to the test.” she added.

This year, Jollibee is at it again with a new trilogy that is sure to touch the hearts of audiences across generations.

Hold on to real love in the face of never-ending challenges with the Kwentong Jollibee “600 Days” Valentines episode.

600 Days, is love worth the trouble? —This is the question posed by Brian and Mina’s story which is, set to premiere on February 9 on the brand’s official Facebook page. The couple was first introduced in last year’s #LDR, which chronicled their struggles as the distance and pandemic kept them apart. They thought the worst is over, but as the pandemic progresses, new challenges keep rocking their relationship. Do they have what it takes to still make things work? Find out in this heartwarming sequel by the same director of Kwentong Jollibee LDR, Antoinette Jadaone.

Kwentong Jollibee’s “Dream Guy” is a swoon-worthy love story made for the K-drama fans.

Dream Guy, which will be released on February 13, tells the story of Kaye, a hallyu fan who dreams of having her own ultimate oppa love story. For her, meeting Jung feels like starring in her very own K-drama, but he might not be what she imagined him to be. This charming love story also helmed by Jadaone will surely delight the hearts of Korean love story fans.

Meet the different types of love through the stories of three girlkada members on 

Kwentong Jollibee’s “ILY”.

ILY, streaming on February 18, is a different kind of love story that will make young people realize all the more the value of the people they have in their lives. Directed by JP Habac (who also directed the recent blockbuster short film One True Pair The Movie), it’s the perfect short film to watch with your besties or even the whole family.

Kwentong Jollibee has released 36 short films since it was first introduced in 2017.

Stay away from the usual and be creative! Refresh your dating routine and try one of these ideas to spice up your relationship, making the affection more intimate with useful appliances from XTREME Appliances.

 

Challenge Cook-off

If the way to each other’s heart is through the stomach, then impress each other in the kitchen! Ditch that old cookbook, search for the best vlogger chef to learn with and prepare a meal using the newest XTREME Home Gas Range Pro. You can bake, cook, and roast with this sophisticated matte black cooking range. To keep the atmosphere ventilated and odor-free, don’t forget to make use of the XTREME Home Rangehood.
