However, as the strength of their love is tested by distance, time, and unforeseen circumstances, they decide to part ways.

Years later, they unexpectedly say their hellos once more and this time in Canada. As they rediscover each other, they navigate the complexities of their new lives, finding romance and rekindling their connection amidst the changes.

Five years after the box-office success of Hello, Love, Goodbye, the Management recognized that there are still a lot of stories waiting to be told.

This time, the production company wanted to venture into a new part of the world, bringing a fresh perspective and a new layer of romance to enrich the story. The film is directed by Cathy Garcia-Sampana who directed the first film.
