Fans were thrilled as the beloved Kapuso love team of Barbie Forteza and David Licauco (known as BarDa) recently collaborated on a captivating TikTok video.

In the short reel set to the song "ILY" by Young Blood Neet, the duo delighted fans with sweet gestures, showcasing David's charming Filipino charisma (or in slang rizz).

To cheer up Barbie, the Pambansang Ginoo gently grasped her chin, turning her towards him. Their brief eye contact left Barbie (act) blushing at David's charm. The love team then struck adorable poses, infused with humor that made them laugh at the end.

Within 24 hours, the TikTok video earned two million views and over 200 thousand heart-likes.

This viral moment came just days before the premiere of their film, That Kind of Love.

Tagging his other half in BarDa, David encouraged fans to watch their upcoming movie in the captions, "'That Kind of Love,' July 10 in cinemas."

Directed by Catherine Camarillo, the film follows Mila (Barbie), a dating coach helping his client Adam (David) find his perfect match.

That Kind of Love features cinematic scenes filmed in South Korea and was submitted to the Jinseo Arigato International Film Festival.

The on-screen duo is also set to appear in the highly anticipated GMA Prime family drama series Pulang Araw, alongside Sanya Lopez and Alden Richards with special participation by Dennis Trillo.
