Klasmeyts, brace yourselves—because the results are in for the Partners in Crime: Ang Mutya ng Section E Sweethearts poll, and the kilig is off the charts!
After a heated voting frenzy on the JuanCast app, the polls officially closed on June 16, 2025—and the Section E Nation has spoken: Jay-Jay and Kiefer (aka JayFer) are the ultimate sweethearts of Ang Mutya ng Section E!
A huge congratulations to Ashtine Olviga and Andres Muhlach for making our hearts skip a beat and claiming the top spot! And to all the fans who poured their love, loyalty, and endless stars into this StarCast exclusive—this win is yours, too. You earned it, klasmeyts!
JayFer: EveryJuan’s Class Couple
It’s no surprise that the show’s lead couple, Jay-Jay and Kiefer, soared to victory in this fan-powered poll. Their fiery enemies-to-lovers chemistry in Ang Mutya ng Section E—the Viva One teen rom-com that’s taken the Philippines (and the world!) by storm since its January 3, 2025 premiere has had fans screaming, swooning, and flooding TikTok with edits.
Ashtine’s portrayal of Jasper Jean “Jay-Jay” Mariano, the palaban transferee who turns the chaotic all-boys Section E upside down, paired with Andres’ grumpy-yet-charming Mark Kiefer Watson, is the stuff of kilig legend. From their iconic classroom banter to those heart-melting stolen glances, JayFer has secured its spot as the Philippines’ hottest love team right now.
Based on Lara Flores’ (Eatmore2behappy) Wattpad trilogy with 348 million reads, the series has become a cultural juggernaut—blending mystery, humor, and romance in a way that’s captivated both Gen Z and Millennials. With all 16 episodes of Season 1 streaming on Viva One, Dailymotion, and Bilibili (now with English and Hindi subs for international fans), and Season 2 (The Dark Side) on the horizon, JayFer’s win feels like the cherry on top of this Mutya mania.
Kilig Royalty, No Contest
What makes JayFer the undisputed kilig royalty? It’s the electric push-and-pull between Jay-Jay’s fearless spirit and Kiefer’s tough-guy façade—sparks that fans simply can’t resist. Whether they’re locked in hilarious arguments at Higher Value International School’s rowdy Section E or sharing quiet, “destined” moments, JayFer delivers the kind of romance that has fans hitting rewind again and again.
The Section E Nation showed up in full force, casting stars like there was no tomorrow. And with this victory, excitement only builds for what this iconic pair will bring in Season 2!
Mutya Fans Win Big, Too!
The kilig didn’t stop with the poll results. On June 17, 2025, JuanCast announced that two lucky Mutya fans—“Lin” and Ritchelle Anne Licanda—won VIP tickets to the highly anticipated Ang Mutya ng Section E: OST Live in Concert happening on June 20, 2025. Congrats, you two—you totally deserve it!
The concert promises to be a night of music, memories, and maybe even a few surprise JayFer moments. Fans are already buzzing with anticipation.
The Kilig Isn’t Over Yet!
