New ‘Wansapanataym’ season begins this weekend

CEBU, Philippines - ABS-CBN’s longest-running and award-winning fantasy-drama anthology “Wansapanataym” will air its newest month-long special beginning this Saturday and Sunday (August 30 and 31). The “Wansapanataym” special titled “Perfecto” will be topbilled by Kapamilya teen stars Nash Aguas, Alexa Ilacad, and the rising “ASAP 19” boy group Gimme 5.

In “Wansapanataym Presents Perfecto,” Nash will portray the character of Perry, a young man who wanted to be perfect to please his mother and his crush Kylie (Alexa). Because of his insecurities, Perry is determined to do everything to achieve his dreams.

What will Perry have to sacrifice to get the perfect life he wanted? What experiences does he have to go through to realize that the purity of his heart is far more important than living a very ideal life?
