Lelaki Itu Pemilik Hatiku
The story follows Luqman (Raja Afiq), a rich man's son who tries to win the heart of a girl named Nurin Karmila (Puteri Aishah) after being challenged by Andrea (Julia Farhana Marin), his own female friend. Andrea is frustrated with Luqman's attitude, which seems insincere in their relationship. For Luqman Hakimi, commonly called Luke, this is an opportunity to free himself from Andrea, who is the chosen daughter-in-law of his parents. Luke falls for Nurin Karmila, a girl who works in a souvenir shop. Luke accepts Andrea's challenge by setting a condition that if he successfully wins the girl's heart, Andrea will leave him; otherwise, he must marry Andrea as arranged by both their mothers. Initially, Luqman believes it will be easy for him to win Nurin Karmila's heart, a girl from a village. It turns out his assumption is wrong. Nurin Karmila is most "averse" to befriending rich men, let alone falling in love with one. So he uses methods from his friend, Mokhtar.
