 Cherri, who starred as Mili in "Chiquititas", was chosen as the main actress and Patricia Maldonado, the screenwriter of "Chiquititas", was in charge of the scripts.The show was intended to be aired exclusively during the summer (hence the title, translated as "Summer of 98") but it was so successful it went on for three years (gaining the tagline "Verano Eterno", "Eternal Summer", later on).Morena and her staff were only in charge of the show during its first four months.
