Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Rompecorazón exemplifies the 'telenovela chilena' boom of the 1990s, when TVN dominated Latin American melodrama before Mexican and Colombian productions took over.
Carolina Fadic was only 19 during filming despite playing a sophisticated heiress, while Francisco Reyes' 'disguise' required minimal prosthetics that viewers immediately saw through.
