Gabbi Garcia and Khalil Ramos explore mystery, romance, horror on ‘Love You Stranger’

Gabbi Garcia and Khalil Ramos will explore romance and horror on "Love You Stranger" as they try to unravel the mystery surrounding "Lilom," the legend of a shadow creature.

GMA Public Affair's newest mystery romance series tells the story of LJ (Gabbi), a young lady who dedicates her life to taking care of her mother Lorraine (Andrea del Rosario) who has an unexplained fear of shadows and aversion to strangers.

Desperate to make ends meet as a production designer, LJ lands a major movie project that can bring her closer to understanding her mother: a film based on the "Lilom" folklore, which will be helmed by a charming director named Ben (Khalil).

In a press conference on Tuesday, Gabbi and Khalil expressed their excitement for viewers to finally watch their first-ever Kapuso primetime series together.

“First time namin gumawa ng mystery, thriller, romance na type na kuwento. Kaya pati kami excited. Talagang pinaghandaan ng bawat cast member 'yung show na 'to. Talagang binigay namin lahat ng best namin para mapaganda 'yung Love You Stranger,” said the Kapuso actress.

Working on his first Kapuso primetime series, Khalil said the experience taught him many lessons. "Marami kaming natutunan, hindi lang tungkol sa sarili namin, hindi lang sa relationship namin. Marami kaming natutunan sa trabaho. 'Yung patience namin sa isa't isa, talagang na-test,” he said.

Also joining the "Love You Stranger" cast are Carmi Martin, Tonton Gutierrez, Lexi Gonzales, Kim de Leon, Maey Bautista, Angelli Sanoy, Alex Medina, Nor Domingo, Ces Quesada, Lui Manansala, Bodjie Pascua, Soliman Cruz, and Dindo Arroyo.

Catch the world premiere of "Love You Stranger" on June 6, 9:35 p.m. on GMA Telebabad. – RC, GMA News
