Remember My MVP Valentine? Tony Sun & Johnny Yen Bring Back the Basketball Fever!
From a Feel‑Good Drama to the Street Courts!
Who remembers the 2002 phenomenon that kept us glued to the TV—My MVP Valentine? That sweet romantic roller‑coaster not only stoked hearts but also lit a passion for the basketball courts. And guess what? For the first time in years, the drama’s stars, Tony Sun and Johnny Yen, have reunited for a showdown that’s more than a flash‑back.
Wednesday Night in Taipei
Midnight on March 20th, the two legends of the 2002 hit stepped onto a local playground, the same court that once echoed with the opening and closing songs of the show. As they battled for the ball, the speakers blasted those iconic tunes—turning a simple game into a full‑blown movie‑reunion.
What’s on the Agenda?
- A one‑on‑one face‑off between Tony (41) and Johnny.
- A street basketball competition slated for later this month.
- A rallying cry to inspire the next generation of athletes.
Tony’s Nostalgic Pep Talk
During the match, Tony borrowed a line straight from the drama to fire up the crowd: “Don’t give up, or you’ll let yourself down.” The words carried the weight of a decade’s worth of dreams, reminding us that talent alone isn’t enough—persistence is.
Throwback to the Original Hit
Hitting the airwaves in 2002, My MVP Valentine catapulted 5566, Tony’s band, and singer‑actress Angela Chang into stardom. It’s a reminder that a good story can cross borders, break the ice for a new generation, and leave its mark on both the music charts and the basketball courts.
What to Expect From the Upcoming Event
In a nutshell: fresh talent, old school vibes, and a chance to see the same stars we grew up with, facing off on a steel‑and‑mesh arena. Show up, grab a beanbag, and watch history unfold—because basketball isn’t just a game; it’s a story waiting to be lived.

During the event, Johnny revealed a director’s offer to helm a sequel to the hit idol drama. He chuckled, “I’ll make a guest appearance—just a quick cameo, nothing more.” When asked if this signaled a return to showbiz, he smiled and said, “No, I’m fully committed to coaching my team now.”
