LOGLINE: The Kagawaran ng Sandatahang Maharlikeño para Sa Bagong Pilipinas na Inaasam or KSMBPI is a covert cyber-security agency that is secretly helping the nation grappling with a looming nuclear threat arising from sovereignty conflicts against a formidable nuclear superpower while at the same time its secret agents (called the WPS DEFENDERS) are coping up with daily personal issues of their own.
This story unfolds in the near future Philippines being bullied by a Nuclear Superpower Nation, the Kingdom of Manchuria.
Amidst this escalating tension, the clandestine organization composed of skilled spies and cyber-security experts, operates in the shadows, protecting their nation's interests. Within this said clandestine organization, three (3) controversial romance blossoms among its versatile agents, challenging societal norms and navigating the complexities of their dangerous professions.
Aria (DAIANA MENEZES), a seasoned spy with years of experience, is a master of espionage and infiltration. Her sharp mind and unwavering loyalty make her a valuable asset to the organization. However, she carries the weight of being in love with her superior, the Commander (RANNIE RAYMUNDO), who is righteous and a gentleman. They chose the path of professionalism over their love for each other. They are reluctant lovers.
Andrew (LANCE RAYMUNDO), a brilliant young cyber-security expert, joins the organization with a thirst for knowledge and a desire to make a difference. His exceptional skills in hacking and data manipulation are crucial in the digital battlefield. But his youthful exuberance and unconventional approach clash with Almira's (AYANNA MISOLA) more adventurous and free-wheeling outlook. However, they are caught in a traditional and long arranged marriage fixed by their grandfathers.
Amari (MARY TREGO), a veteran espionage Filipina agent, is caught between love and duty. She fell in love with an older man, Shifu (HENRY LO) and later found out that he is the Manchurian leader tasked to lead local operations against the Philippines. They are caught in a May-December Love Affair as she struggles to accomplish her duty, to capture the enemy boss who is now her husband.
However, there is a conventional love in the story as Alenna (AJ RAVAL) the adopted daughter of the Commander, is struggling to prove that she can become the ALPHA of the group. She will be charmed by a handsome businessman in the person of Bobby (ALJUR ABRENICA), the cousin of Andrew.
Their paths converge during missions, and despite their contrasting personalities and the weight of societal expectations, a spark ignites between them. Their bond deepens as they navigate the treacherous world of espionage, facing life-threatening situations and uncovering dangerous secrets. Their professed love for each other, however, is not without its challenges.
In these future times, the global landscape is dominated by a superpower; the Kingdom of Manchuria, wielding its military might and nuclear arsenal to exert its influence on the world stage. A smaller nation, the Philippines, stands as a symbol of defiance, refusing to succumb to the Manchuria’s demands. The Philippines, caught in the crosshairs of this geopolitical conflict, faces the threat of becoming a battleground.
Will love prevail in these trying times?
Can a small nation overcome a powerful bully?
