Zaijian Jaranilla and Jane Oineza deliver powerhouse performances in the newest Puregold Channel original
Puregold Channel is turning heads once again—with its latest original series Si Sol at Si Luna, the retail giant-turned-content studio proves it’s more than capable of delivering premium, emotionally resonant entertainment that hits home with today’s digital generation.
Following the viral success of My Plantito and Ang Lalaki sa Likod ng Profile, Si Sol at Si Luna signals a bold creative evolution. Officially unveiled during a glittering press conference held on May 16 at the World Trade Center in Pasay City, the series cements Puregold Channel’s growing reputation as a serious player in Filipino “retailtainment”—a fusion of commerce and storytelling designed for the modern audience.
A May- September Love Story?
At the heart of the series is an unlikely, deeply affecting romance between Sol, a passionate film student played by Zaijian Jaranilla, and Luna, a grief-stricken, emotionally complex older woman portrayed by Jane Oineza. It’s a coming-of-age tale wrapped in adult themes: vulnerability, longing, and the emotional minefield of love that arrives at the wrong time—or maybe, just the right time to change everything.
Jaranilla and Oineza both break new ground in their careers, shedding their teen star personas in favor of layered, soul-baring performances. Jaranilla’s portrayal marks a pivotal career shift, complete with his first intimate scene—a bold move that showcases both his range and the series’ mature direction.
But Si Sol at Si Luna isn’t just about pushing boundaries—it’s about emotional truth. The show unpacks the weight of grief, the fragility of healing, and the messy, beautiful reality of connection that defies expectations.
More Than a Rom-Com
“This isn’t your typical love story,” shares Ivy Hayagan-Piedad, Puregold’s Senior Marketing Manager. “It’s about navigating love when it’s inconvenient, when it hurts, and when it forces you to grow. Luna teaches us how to love while grieving. Sol teaches us how to love while becoming. It’s the kind of story that lingers.”
With its raw emotional core and smart storytelling, Si Sol at Si Luna blurs the line between commercial and cinematic. It’s proof that Puregold Channel is more than just branded content—it’s a creative hub that reflects the everyday Filipino experience in nuanced, thoughtful ways.
