TikTok’s Got Their Eyes on Puregold’s new BL series, Got My Eyes on You

Mikoy Morales & Esteban Mara Lead The Cast of Puregold BL Series "Got My Eyes on You"
 

In today’s digital age, kilig doesn’t just happen in coffee shops or chance encounters—it unfolds on our For You Page. Puregold’s newest Boy’s Love (BL) vertical series, Got My Eyes on You, is already making waves on TikTok, with vibrant, fun episodes filling feeds and fans eagerly asking for more (“next episode please!” and “bitin naman!”).

Audiences from Gen Z to Millennials and the LGBTQIA+ community are keeping their eyes glued to this refreshing BL story, proving that representation and authentic storytelling resonate widely.

Last September 16, I attended the official media launch of Got My Eyes on You at Rampa Drag Club. It was more than just a press con—it was a lively celebration of love, inclusivity, and Filipino creativity. Hosted by Papa JT, the event introduced the series’ cast and creators:

  • Mikoy Morales as Drew, the ambitious operations manager

  • Esteban Mara as Shawn, the mysterious guest relations manager

  • Toniyuh as a balikbayan influencer guest

  • Victor Sy as Sir Trevor

  • Hannah Lee as Moira

  • Ady Cotoco as Kirk, the wealthy fashionista

  • Darwin Yu as Wilfred, the events coordinator


    L-R: Toniyuh, Victor Sy, Esteban Mara, Director Dizelle Masilungan, Mikoy Morales, Hannah Lee

The series is directed by Dizelle Masilungan, produced and created by Chris Cahilig, with Puregold CinePanalo film festival graduates and seasoned creatives like Lloyd Garciano (DOP), Ram Tolentino (Assistant Director), and Migo Morales (Production Designer) bringing the project to life.

During the mediacon, the cast gamely joined a Queer Trivia Challenge, answering fun questions on queer culture and pop history alongside audience participants. It set a lighthearted tone before they faced the press, sharing behind-the-scenes stories about filming and building chemistry on set.

The heart of the series lies in the playful yet passionate clash between Drew and Shawn. Their enemies-to-lovers dynamic is already stirring fan debates online between #TeamDrew and #TeamShawn, making the show even more interactive and engaging.

Puregold Senior Marketing Manager Ivy Hayagan-Piedad also emphasized the brand’s commitment to inclusivity and representation, showing how stories like Got My Eyes on You can create safe, meaningful spaces in Philippine entertainment.

The event wrapped up with a fan meet that left attendees buzzing with excitement—myself included. As someone who witnessed the cast’s energy up close, I can say this series doesn’t just promise kilig; it celebrates queer love in a way that feels authentic and proudly Filipino.
