GMA-7 is set to release its 2018 summer station ID today, March 9.
With the tagline "Buong Puso para sa Kapuso," the new Station ID features moments in GMA-7's history. It also pays tribute to past & present personalities who have touched Filipinos' lives through the years.
The Station ID also shows the network's journey from a small radio station—founded by Robert "Uncle Bob" Stewart to a trusted and reputable TV station in the country.
Asia's Songbird Regine Velasquez, together with other Kapuso singers, recorded the Station ID jingle.
Of this, Regine said, "I am always excited to sing with other artists. I am flattered how these young talents look up to me."
The new Station ID of the Kapuso network will premiere tonight, March 9, after 24 Oras.
