This August 6, Cignal Entertainment and Crown Artist Management present Oh My Korona, a one-of-a-kind sitcom that gives a funny take on the lives of showbiz aspirants who live under one roof. Top-billed by versatile actress and TV5’s Majestic Superstar Maja Salvador, with Philippine sitcom legend Joey Marquez, Oh My Korona is sure to make weekend TV more delightful for the whole family as it airs every Saturday at 7:30pm on TV5.
Oh My Korona highlights some true showbiz experiences based on current news headlines, celebrity issues and scandals, and other viral topics. The show also gives valuable insights on the showbiz world to guide and inspire dreamers who are pursuing their own paths to stardom.
In Oh My Korona, Maja plays Lablab, an out-of-work hotel manager who inherited a boarding house from her late beauty queen-actress mother and is now landlady to a group of showbiz wannabes. Talent agency owner Louie (portrayed by Joey Marquez) wants to make Lablab his prime talent as he manages the other tenants to achieve their own showbiz dreams. However, Lablab dislikes show business due to her issues with her parents. How will Louie convince Maja to join him in his quest and make her the Superstar she is meant to be?
The sitcom is just first of the series of commitments of Maja Salvador for TV5 and Cignal Entertainment, as announced in her previous media conference earlier this year. Oh My Korona is also the first line production venture of Crown Artist Management, Maja’s talent management company with her fiancé, Rambo Nuñez.
