Set in Visayas, 'Kara Mia' features the Engkantos - a mythical being that typically dwells on rivers, trees, and forest areas that tend to cast spells on their victims.

Aside from the talented cast of the Kapuso primetime show, KaraMia, fans have noticed and appreciated the show's effort to highlight Filipino culture and local tourist spots found in the Visayan region.

#KaraMia is an interesting take on the Visayan folkloric culture of tamawo. This fantaserye may as well help educate Filipinos about the rich Visayan culture. Excited as to how the story will be developed, including different socio-political struggles.

#KaraMia: Wow, too much exposure of Negros and the use of the local lengua is kinda authentic. Also the fact that Visayas is the mother of urban and engkanto legends and stories, nice concept. 🤔👏😍 #KaraMiaWorldPremiere

Set in Visayas, Kara Mia features the urban legend of Engkantos - a mythical being that typically dwells on rivers, trees, and forest areas that tend to cast spells on their victims. Kapuso star, Mike Tan, plays the said mythological creature named 'Iswal' who falls in love with a mortal named Aya (Carmina Villarroel). She eventually gives birth to a daughter with two faces.
