Soap Opera
A soap opera (also called a daytime drama or soap) is a genre of a long-running radio or television Serial (radio and television), serial, frequently characterized by melodrama, ensemble casts, and sentimentality.

Ilona Janyst
''Ilona'' is a feminine given name used primarily in Hungary and Finland, as well as in other parts of Central and Eastern Europe. The name Ilona is the Hungarian form of the Greek name Helenē (Ἑλένη), which is commonly interpreted to mean “torch,” “light,” or “shining one.” The name likely entered Hungarian through Slavic intermediaries such as Jelena. In Hungarian folklore, Ilona is also known as the name of the Queen of the Fairies, a mythical figure associated with beauty, magic, and enchantment.Lőrincz, László. ''Hungarian Folk Mythology''. Budapest: Akadémiai Kiadó, 1982. In Finland, Ilona is used independently of its Greek or Hungarian roots. It is commonly associated with the Finnish word ilo, meaning “joy.” In this context, ilona can be understood as “as a joy o someone” though this interpretation is a folk etymology and not linguistically related to the Greek origin.
