What happens

Dulce Ilusión (English title:Sweet Illusion) is a Venezuelan telenovela written by Mariela Romero and produced by Radio Caracas Televisión in 1993. This was the first telenovela to use Venezuelan cartoons with real people, and it's the only one in the history of Venezuelan soap operas, and the great success of the telenovela was partly due to the big innovation of the cartoons. The animated characters were developed by the legendary animator Felix Nakamura and his team. Coraima Torres and Gabriel Fernández starred as the main protagonists with the antagonistic participation of Marisela Berti. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
