WATTPAD Season Ender Presents: Just the Strings

Tweet

After a brief hiatus, former PBB sweethearts Cora Waddell and Luis Hontiveros will team up, once again, for the season ender of WATTPAD PRESENTS entitled, Just The Strings.

Based on the Wattpad novel by Beeyoch, this is the second book of the author’s “Just” series that has captured millions of Wattpad readers and is, in fact, the most-awaited TV adaptation this year. 

Just The Strings is the story of Imo (Cora Wadell), a quintessential “emo” girl whose life evolves around books and underground music. 

Her so-called miniscule world becomes large in all proportions when she accidentally rode on the wrong car, thinking it was her UBER ride, which is being driven by the school heartthrob and basketball star, Saint (Luis Hontiveros). This chance meet-up leads to a blossoming romance despite Imo’s eternal infatuation with her childhood best friend Parker, who is played by Starstruck finalist, James Teng. Imo is also ruptured by the fact that both Saint and Parker are linked with other girls but in some such way, also baited by Imo’s kindness and whimsical character. 

KILIG PA MORE? 

Whose string will Imo be attached with? Who is “the one”? Her long-time best friend Parker or Saint, who gave her worth and romance? Or will there be . . . just the strings? This episode will surely bring a lot of kilig for everyone, both young and old.

Also starring Chris Leonardo, Jefferlyn Serrano, Ruth Lopez-Dee and Sophia Reyes. Written by Mark Ghosn and Fyodor Macanda, under Firestarters Productions, INC. and directed by award-winning director Isabel Quesada. Catch WATTPAD Presents Just The Strings #JTSonTV5 on Saturday, 9PM on TV5.
