After its successful run, Innamorata bids goodbye on June 20. Top billed by the finest Kapuso actors and actresses, the iconic characters of Esperanza and Alejandra will forever be etched in the memories of its countless fans. As the teleserye ends, we ask the lead stars what they will remember most about the show. 
 
Max Collins says she was particularly impressed with the acting of co-actor Dion Ignacio. 
 
“Pero yung pinakamemorable sa akin dahil hindi ako yung magaling dun eh, siya talaga [Dion Ignacio] yung magaling. Kasi iniisip ko gusto ko umiyak kailangan maipakita ko na hurt ako dito na para maawa siya sa akin. You know it’s a two way thing, but after that like siya yung nagdala nung eksena ang ganda lang nung kinalabasan, because he really gave everything to the scene na-touch ako doon, so isa yun sa pinaka-favorite scenes ko na natatandaan ko,” affirms Max.
 
StarStruck alumni Dion Ignacio says that he will miss Innamorata director Don Michael Perez. He says that Direk Michael was intimidating at first, but he eventually found the courage to give his best in each scene.
 
“Yung mga scene ko kay Direk Michael, kasi yung una talaga, ngayon ko lang sasabihin medyo parang na-intimidate ako, kasi ang galing niya. Parang paano ko ba sasabayan si Direk. So yun naman. Awa naman ng Diyos yung nagawa ko naman yung mga scene namin,” Dion says.
 
The dashing Luis Alandy, who played the role of Edwin, praises the Innamorata production crew and his co-stars for making each taping day hassle-free.  
 
“The cast. Our crew, our production kasi parang dito ko lang nakita na wala masyado, wala masyadong sigawan. But mostly the cast,  we’ve really bonded very well dito sa show and naging close kami sa isa’t-isa. There were a few times that we go out as a group," he adds.
