Jennylyn & Mark reunited in Rhodora X

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - GMA Network is once again innovating content as it showcases an edgy theme, never been tackled on Philippine TV, that is living with someone with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID).

Beginning tonight, GMA presents another thought-provoking drama via Rhodora X.

Rhodora X challenges us to review how deeply we know our loved ones and to discover the nuances of our own personal relationships.

The show stars Jennlyn Mercado, Mark Anthony Fernandez, Mark Herras and Yasmien Kurdi.

Jennylyn takes on a new and challenging role as Rhodora/Roxanne. Rhodora, as a young girl, experienced extreme physical and emotional abuse when she was abducted and taken away from her family. This experience eventually led her to develop another “persona” inside of her. Roxanne is a confident and smart woman but also scheming and manipulative. She hates her sister Angela so much to the point that she will do everything to get what Angela has — the affection of their mother and Angela’s love, Joaquin.

Meanwhile, Yasmien plays the role of Angela. She blames herself when Rhodora is kidnapped. But when Rhodora finally gets reunited with them, Angela becomes all the more happy and content because her family is once again complete and is also set to marry Joaquin.

Mark plays the role of Joaquin, Angela’s fiancé. On the other hand, Mark Anthony’s character is Nico. He owns the ancestral home where Angela ends up. He feels for Angela since he also has a grudge against Joaquin’s family and eventually he falls in love with her.

Directed by Albert Langitan, Rhodora X also stars Gardo Versoza as Derick, the doting father of Rhodora and Angela; Glydel Mercado as Lourdes, the loving and affectionate mother of Rhodora and Angela; Irma Adlawan as Dr. Vivian, the doctor who diagnosed Rhodora’s illness; Lollie Mara as Donya Cita, the owner of a big shipyard company and grandmother of Joaquin; Frank Magalona as Santi,the cousin and best friend of Joaquin; Vaness del Moral as Pia, the cousin of Angela and Rhodora, she is also Angela’s best friend; and with special participation of  Boots Anson-Roa as Panchang, the grandmother of Rhodora and Angela and the one who has doubts about Rhodora’s return.
