Production
Initially, Muling Buksan Ang Puso was originally planned to be premiered back-to-back with Got to Believe in July 8, 2013, replacing Apoy Sa Dagat and Missing You. But due to the request of Koreanovela fans and the postponement of Got to Believe in favor of Korean drama That Winter, the Wind Blows, it was first premiered in the 8:30-9:15pm timeslot instead, taking over the timeslot previously occupied by Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala. On August 26, 2013, the series later moved to the original 9:15-10:00pm timeslot to give way for Got to Believe.[6][7]
