## Promotion

To promote the series, the casts held a back-to-back caravan at Vista Mall in Bataan along with the cast of Nag-aapoy na Damdamin. The official full trailer of the series was released on July 10, 2023.
The show is co-produced respectively by ABS-CBN and TV5, but the latter discontinued their blocktime simulcast agreement with It's Showtime on June 30, 2023 (which is also the date the agreement expired; due to the disagreements between the Eat Bulaga! hosts (led by the TVJ) and the production crew, and the new management of TAPE, Inc., which led to the former's TV5 transfer after their departure from it) and was eventually moved to GMA Network's sister channel GTV a day later before it expanded simulcast into AMBS' All TV (which is headed by Vista Mall's owner Manny Villar) and GMA Network's main channel nearly a years later, meaning that the cast of the new shows were not allowed to appear on the said show to promote them. As a result, they instead promoted both of these new afternoon teleseryes on Eat Bulaga! (then known by its interim title E.A.T.), TV5's new noontime show, which ironically was aired on ABS-CBN from 1989 to 1995.
