Synopsis
editThe story revolves around Heart de Jesus (Nayomi Ramos), who grew up not knowing her biological parents because of her biological grandmother, and under the care of Jude (Zanjoe Marudo) and Clara de Jesus (Bela Padilla). She lives happily despite being poor and having a rare heart condition. Heart will then be put into a coma, which causes her soul to become visible to her doctor, Margaret Divinagracia (Coney Reyes). They then learn to love each other. Along the way, Heart will eventually know that Margaret is her grandmother, and Margaret's daughter Gia (Ria Atayde) is her birth mother. Jude will then discover that the little girl he is taking care of is the fruit of his affair with Gia.

Remake
editMy Dear Heart was remade by Myanmar's partly state-owned broadcaster MRTV-4 as Chit Hla Swar Thaw (ချစ်လှစွာသော), which began airing on September 19, 2023. Despite the Philippine government's role in ABS-CBN's loss of its broadcasting franchise, Philippine Embassy in Yangon Chargé d’Affaires Enrique Voltaire Pingol attended the press launch of the adaptation and portrayed it as “part of people-to-people diplomacy and soft-power approach.” [6]
