Whether they’re starring in a hit digital series or showing their playful chemistry courtside, Ghosting stars JM Ibarra and Fyang Smith know how to make fans kilig — and their latest viral video from the Star Magic All-Star Games 2025 is proof.
Held last July 20 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum, the annual sports spectacle was packed with thrilling plays and cheering fans. But amid the action, it was the adorable moments between JM and Fyang that had social media buzzing — and squealing.
In a fan-captured clip that has now reached over 4.2 million views, JM and Fyang were spotted sitting side by side in the audience, giggling and exchanging sweet gestures.
One moment showed JM casually putting his arm around Fyang, only for her to playfully tug him even closer. She then playfully fussed over JM’s socks, prompting teasing from netizens who couldn’t get enough of their candid chemistry.
But the undisputed kilig moment of the day? When JM bent down to tie Fyang’s loose shoelaces.
Yes, just a simple act — but it sent fans into a frenzy.
Even as screams erupted from the crowd, especially whenever the camera focused on them, the pair remained in their own little bubble of sweetness — and fans loved every second of it.
Both JM and Fyang didn’t just win hearts — they also won awards. JM was part of Team Shooting Stars in the Men’s Basketball division, while Fyang played in the Women’s Volleyball category under Team Lady Spikers. The two were later named Rookies of the Year in their respective sports.
And yes, fans noticed: Fyang even wore a jersey with “Ibarra” on the back while cheering from the sidelines.
After capturing the public’s attention as housemates in Pinoy Big Brother Gen 11, JM and Fyang’s chemistry skyrocketed with their debut series Ghosting, currently streaming on iWant. With each new public appearance — from sweet interviews to these spontaneous moments — the #JMFyang loveteam continues to gain fans and momentum.
So whether it’s tying shoelaces, playful teasing, or simply sitting close at a basketball game, JM and Fyang are proving that sometimes, the smallest gestures leave the biggest impact.
And judging by those 4.2 million views, the fans are watching — and loving — every second.
