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.[4] The official full trailer of the series was released on July 10, 2023.[5]
The show is co-produced respectively by ABS-CBN and TV5, but TV5 discontinued their blocktime simulcast agreement with It's Showtime on June 30, 2023 (which is also the date the agreement expired) (due to Tito Vic & Joey's departure from TAPE, Inc., which led to their TV5 transfer) 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,[6][7][8][9] 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.[10]
This show has been developed by Pasion de Amor, Doble Kara, Wildflower, Asintado, The Blood Sisters, Kadenang Ginto, Sandugo, Love Thy Woman, and Bagong Umaga, due its genre of family, multiple romance, and criminal drama lineup where Dreamscape Entertainment released the type of drama series and others that are produced by RSB Drama Unit since 2015.
