ABS-CBN Studios is venturing into the world of microdrama with “The Chambermaid’s Daughter,” starring Alexa Ilacad and Gelo Rivera, leader of the P-pop group BGYO.
The series, which follows a neglected hotel employee whose life takes a turn after meeting a Korean guest, premieres on iWant this April 30.
The show marks a strategic shift for the studio, offering short, easy-to-watch episodes tailored for mobile users. It also serves as the launchpad for the new on-screen tandem of Alexa and Gelo.
In the series, Alexa plays Hannah Montano, a hardworking room attendant who often fades into the background. Her luck changes when Daniel Jeon, a Korean executive played by Gelo, hires her as his private Tagalog translator.
As Hannah steps into Daniel’s world, a connection forms between the housekeeper and the businessman. The two must manage their personal histories and the social expectations tied to their different backgrounds.
Viewers can catch the premiere of “The Chambermaid’s Daughter” on April 30. The first five episodes will be available for free on the iWant app, the ABS-CBN Facebook page, and the iWant YouTube channel.
Episodes 6 through 30 will be exclusive to iWant subscribers. Subscription plans start at ₱35 per month in the Philippines and $12.99 per month in the U.S.
