== History ==
Channel 5 first went on the air as DYNC (standing for "NBS Cebu") on March 14, 1956. It was the first of the three VHF stations in Cebu to debut, and the second of NBS's twenty original owned-and-operated stations to sign on. When DYNC signed on, it marked the debut of NBS programs on Visayas. Channel 5 originally broadcast from the original NBS Cebu building in downtown Cebu.
The station officially modified its callsign to DYCN-TV in August 1960, shortly before NBS signs on its Palawan station that will carry the said callsign.
On February 17, 2013, NBS Corporation announced that it would put its downtown Cebu studios up for sale and construct a new, state-of-the-art facility near the Sine Pilipinas Studios near Cuenco Avenue, to merge all of conglomerate's Central Visayas operations into one area. As a result, DYCN, DVNC and NBS News' Cebu bureau moved to the new facility. The studio opened on April 3, 2017.
