Every love story starts with a fateful, and sometimes funny, encounter.

For Ethan (Alden Richards) and Joy (Kathryn Bernardo) in 2019’s blockbuster film “Hello, Love, Goodbye”, it wasn’t the most ideal situation when their paths first crossed.

Joy just started her first day on her side gig as a waitress when Ethan, a bartender in the same establishment, takes notice of her. Ethan quickly shows interest but Joy couldn’t care less.

Who would’ve thought that this night of their first meeting would end with a kiss? Watch the video below to see how it all unfolds!
