From their breakout roles as Keifer and Jay-jay, they quickly became fan favorites and one of the most talked-about young stars of today. The show’s trailer alone amassed more than 20 million views and had numerous parodies and reaction videos, signaling the beginning of a phenomenon. Its first two episodes racked up over 3 million views collectively, and the buzz hasn’t stopped since. What began as a classroom drama exploded into a full-fledged cultural phenomenon—with #JayFer trending across platforms, solidifying their status as the Philippines’ newest kilig pairing.
The series’ reach has gone global, gaining popularity across Asia, the Middle East, America, Europe, and Oceania, with fans creating online edits and memes that celebrate the show’s heart-fluttering moments. The announcement of Season 2 in May was met with overwhelming fan excitement and confirmed their pairing’s meteoric rise.
With their loyal following and undeniable chemistry, Andres and Ashtine are poised to conquer even more hearts—this time on the big screen. From Jay-Jay and Keifer, get ready to meet Luna and Raffy in their first film together, ‘Minamahal: 100 Bulaklak Para Kay Luna,’ which promises all the kilig that fans have come to love.
The movie follows a lonely high school flower enthusiast, Raffy, who spends years trying to win over a jaded visual artist, Luna, by giving her flowers at significant times in her life. What starts as a sweet, high school crush blossoms into a heartfelt and complicated relationship that spans into college—where love is tested by the realities of growing up.
Just how many flowers will it take for a high school loner to reach the heart of someone who doesn’t believe in love? Watch as one boy tries to make something beautiful bloom… soon.
Officially unveiled on July 4, the first teaser features Andres as Raffy quietly picking flowers in an open field—until his world slows down the moment he locks eyes with Ashtine’s Luna. The clip captivated fans instantly, racking up an astonishing 12 million views in just 24 hours. About a month later, the official movie poster dropped, capturing Andres and Ashtine gazing lovingly at each other—a single image that ignited even greater anticipation. Now, all eyes are on them as they bring this love story to full bloom.
Before they take on the big screen, Andres and Ashtine already proved their magic on stage at VIVARKADA, the highly successful fan con held last August 15 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum featuring Viva’s fast-rising young stars. The two lit up the stage with kilig performances and sweet messages, charming the crowd every step of the way. For Andres and Ashtine, it was their heartfelt way of giving back to the fans who have supported them from the very start.
Directing the phenomenal romantic movie is Jason Paul Laxamana, a master storyteller in the romance genre known for his emotionally rich and unforgettable films such as 100 Tula Para Kay Stella, Just a Stranger, and Expensive Candy. With his proven talent for capturing the raw, messy, and magical sides of love, Laxamana is the perfect director to shape their first love story on the big screen.
The pair’s big-screen debut is made more special with the support of an ensemble cast that includes Joko Diaz, Giselle Sanchez, Gene Padilla, Marnie Lapus, MJ Cayabyab, VJ Mendoza, Phoebe Walker, Bob Jbeili, Lance Carr, Sam Shoaf, Yuki Sakamoto, Phoebe Villamor, and Jastine Lim.
A celebration of young love, ‘Minamahal: 100 Bulaklak Para Kay Luna’ is a heartfelt coming-of-age romance that captures the magic of love, the ache of growing up, and the quiet power of persistence. With Andres and Ashtine at the heart of it all, this film marks a new chapter for two of today’s most promising stars.
