Phenomenal Loveteam It is truly amazing to be one of the fans of Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla. As a teenager‚ I believe that people admire this love team because of the chemistry they have. The question is how come that this phenomenal love team was unremarkably hit by the young ones who are very much addicted like me.
