ID (1987-1990)
Visuals: Over scenery of South Korea, the KBS logo, consisting of the light blue "KBS" with an circle formed by two lines that separate into six segments at the vertical sides, appears on the bottom-right corner with different effects. The logo may appear by sliding in, wiping in, trailing in, expanding itself, or rotating into place.

Audio: An organ theme rendition of KBS' jingle from the time.

Audio Variant: On a few occassions, audio from the footage is heard before the music plays.

ID (1992-1993)
Visuals: On a black background, multiple silver screens with a shiny blue border and a logo consisting of a cyan "1" with the darker blue "KBS" wordmark below zoom out and form a larger "1" as the camera moves back. The background changes into a dark blue shiny material, and the screens turn into bars which then quickly zoom in and flip away from the screen, with a reflective green remainder of the "1" set at the center. The "1" starts spinning while a violet metallic satellite flies behind it. It is revealed that the background is a blue globe-like sphere spinning on a dark teal space background, while the satellite is shown turning away with the blue KBS logo shown on one of the power grids. Another copy of the "KBS" logo in 3D then flips in zooming out below the sphere logo containing the "1", and after everything is settled, both of the shiny materials from the logo keep on moving.

Technique: CGI animation.

Audio: A held-out synth note with a warbling sound effect at the beginning, which leads to a majestic MIDI fanfare rendition of the KBS organ jingle, with two whooshes once the bars zoom away and when the satellite flies behind the logo. At the end, a group of vocalists sing "KBS, KBS!".

ID (1993)
Visuals: Over a blue sky background, a reconstruction of KBS' two headquarter buildings is shown placed over a glass-like surface, and the camera moves behind from the tallest building towards the main building. Once the camera settles, a light glows from the transmission tower on the rooftop of the building as rays come out, and the golden KBS logo, now with a "1" next to the circle, rotates from the bottom and settles below the main building. After the logo settles, the rays from the light become stronger.
