Jomari Yllana, Eric Fructoso and Mark Anthony Fernandez, collectively known as the Gwapings, were the hottest matinee idols of the 90s. Now, their sons are following in their footsteps! Read on to get to know them a bit better

The Gwapings were the hottest “crushes ng bayan” in the 90s. From being on the covers of magazines  to releasing hit movies and launching their own TV show, the trio made all teens and tweens swoon.
