Secrets unmasked in new episode of Puregold's 'Ang Babae Sa Likod ng Face Mask'

Published Jun 17, 2022 01:32 pm
Will Sieg find out what Malta is hiding?

After a highly successful premiere on the Puregold Channel, romantic-comedy series ‘Ang Babae Sa Likod ng Face Mask’ continues to excite in its upcoming second episode as interesting developments unravel in the life of its lead characters.

The premiere garnered thousands of views online as romcom fans flocked to see the budding romance between Herlene Budol’s Malta and Joseph Marco’s Sieg. In the premiere we got to know Malta, a young woman who is labelled “hipon.” Malta works at a local café to help pay the mounting household bills and support her mother, a struggling vlogger named Madam Baby, played by Mickey Ferriols.

Sieg finds himself searching for Malta online.

While working at the café, Malta runs into Sieg, a handsome young man who is smarting from a recent breakup. Enchanted by Malta’s beautiful eyes, Sieg is immediately smitten.

Viewers excitedly gushed about the new series, noting the strong chemistry between the duo. Marife Dayro wrote, “Grabeee, lakas maka-good vibes at kilig much sa tambalang Herlene Budol at Joseph Marco!”

Malta eagerly anticipates Sieg potentially returning to the café.

Other fans chimed in, complimenting the perfect pairing of Herlene and Joseph. “Ganda NG chemistry nila bagy n bagy cla ❤ luv it!” Mark Anthony Agustin commented,

The wonderful performance of Herlene—and those of the rest of the cast—stood out. “Grabe ang galing galing na ni Hipon when it comes sa acting, at ang ganda ganda na din niya,” an obviously thrilled Jamaica Surtido noted. Meanwhile, viewer Chiarina Mosquito praised the entire cast by writing, “Yayy!! I super love Herlene and all the cast. Bravo ang gagaling nila. Nakakatanggal ng stress, nakakatuwa panoorin.”

Madam Baby owns and operates her own sari-sari store.

However, one sentiment clearly stood out as viewers expressed their support for ‘Ang Babae Sa Likod ng Face Mask’. As Michelle Bernardo put it in YouTube, “Cant wait for the next episode!!!”

Where Episode 1 showed how Malta and Sieg hit it off from the start, the upcoming episode will bare the emotional conflicts that could get in the way of their happiness. Will Malta and Sieg have a chance on friendship? Or relationship? Will they meet again?

Madam Baby’s struggle to pay the bills continues in episode 2.
