When so much media nowadays seems to be about challenging things
happening around us, romcoms offer us a breath of fresh air. At their
very best, romantic comedies are sheer joy. They are about forging
human connections and people bringing out the best from one another.
It is a genre that’s about delivering joy and kilig to the audience.
Watching a romcom feels worthwhile because they rekindle our hope for
love and the best that life can offer with its fair share of laughs in store
for the viewers.
Launched by the Philippines’ favorite pampagana, Mang Tomas All-
Around Sarsa, the new three-episode series “Ming ♥ Tomas” delivers the
thrills that every kilig-hunter hopes to take comfort in. The series offers
viewers everything that one should expect from the genre: a cast of
lovably authentic characters that follow a storyline with the perfect
emotional hook and laughs that will keep men and women of all ages
glued to their screen.
Ming ♥ Tomas shows how fate brings together two individuals on
different life paths to fall in love. On one hand, we have Ming, a sweet
and dainty girl blessed with a ganado appetite, proving that anyone
regardless of gender and physical build can be a true macho ganado with
the perfect meal partner like Mang Tomas. On the other hand, we have
Tomas, a hardworking boy who has more sides than meets the eye. Each
episode reveals several twists and turns to their love story that makes
you excited and curious about what’s going to happen next.
At the helm of the project are award-winning directors Joel Ferrer and
Chris Cahilig. Shot exclusively on mobile phones with the guidance of
Tristan Cua who’s dubbed as the father of mobile filmmaking in the
Philippines, the video offers us a more intimate and immersive view into
the lives of the characters. As a format, using mobile phone for filming
made the series feel very authentic, almost as if you’re with the
characters. Beyond sharing conversations over dinner, is there a more
intimate experience these days than connecting through the phone
screen?
You can catch the first two episodes of Ming ♥ Tomas for FREE on the
Mang Tomas Facebook page and NutriAsia YouTube page, with the first
