History

Soap operas and drama series have become a staple for daytime and primetime viewing in the Philippines. In the 1990s, Mexican telenovelas became the mania, with huge hits like Rosalinda and MariMar attracting ratings above 50 percent. Asian dramas have become hits in the 2000s.[2]

In May 2003, Taiwanese series Meteor Garden, which was aired on rival station ABS-CBN, became a phenomenal hit in the Philippines becoming the fifth highest rating TV program in the history of Philippine television according to AGB Nielsen. In June 2003, GMA Network also started importing TV series from Taiwan. Its first drama was My MVP Valentine which premiered on June 9, 2003.[1] The network introduced the Korean drama to the public as they premiered the country's first drama from South Korea, Bright Girl, on July 9, 2003. In 2005, Full House recorded an average rating of 42.3 percent, becoming the highest rated Koreanovela in the Philippines.[3] In 2005 and 2006, the network aired Japanese drama Golden Bowl and Chinese drama Love of the Condor Heroes respectively.
