Taiwanese actor Jerry Yan shared an emotional moment with fans during the "F Forever 1st World Tour" concert at the Philippine Arena on June 27.

During his solo performance, the F4 member delivered a heartfelt message that deeply moved the audience, especially longtime fans of "Meteor Garden."

"When we were young, we always thought that the person we couldn't dare to let go of would never leave our lives. But then we realize some people are not meant to stay with you forever. They're just here to walk with you for a little while. That journey was so short, so short that looking back now it feels like it was just a single afternoon," Jerry said.

He continued his monologue by saying that although some relationships end, the memories remain forever.

"But it was also so long, long enough that even after 10 years, 20 years, you can still remember their voice, remember the weather that day, remember how fiercely you once loved someone," he said.

Jerry then reflected on what he believes is life's greatest regret.

"I think the biggest regret in life is not actually losing someone. It's when you suddenly realize one day, the person who used to make your heart race has slowly become just a memory," he said.

Despite the sadness of saying goodbye, Jerry said every relationship leaves behind meaningful memories and valuable life lessons.

"But it's okay because they teach you how to love, and you teach them what it feels like to be loved. And then honestly, it's already enough," he said.

The arena erupted in cheers as many fans believed the monologue was a tribute to Jerry's "Meteor Garden" co-star Barbie Hsu, who passed away in 2025.

It was a night filled with kilig and nostalgia as Jerry Yan, Vic Chou, and Van Ness Wu took center stage to perform some of their most iconic hits.

The concert opened with "Always Be My Bro" and "Ask for More." Van Ness expressed his heartfelt gratitude to fans who had waited and continued supporting them throughout the years.

"You know it's been a long time since we've been able to be on stage together, but it was very important to us to make this happen, and we're so happy and blessed that it did," Van Ness said.

He also greeted the crowd in Filipino, saying, "Mabuhay! How are you guys feeling tonight? From all of us here, we want to say something to you. Mahal ko kayo!"

Jerry then greeted the fans, saying, "I so miss you. You, you, you," while pointing in different directions of the crowd.

Meanwhile, Van Ness took the opportunity to thank Mayday frontman Ashin for helping make the reunion concert possible.

"We're so, so happy that we're here today, especially for this one person who helped put it all together. Without him, we cannot be here. So, everyone, give a warm welcome to Ashin," Van Ness said.

The night became even more exciting as Van Ness took center stage for his solo performances of "Dance Until We Die" and "U Are the Reason," leaving the titas of Manila in awe of his impressive dance moves and vocals.

Vic Zhou then slowed things down with heartfelt performances of the ballad "Zui Te Bie De Cun Zai" and his newer single, "Tell Me Why."

He wrapped up his solo set with the upbeat "Make a Wish," accompanied by colorful visuals, playful costumes, and a vibrant outfit that matched the song's cheerful theme.

Showing no signs of slowing down, the three members reunited on stage to sing the iconic "Oh baby, baby" lyrics from "Jue Bu Neng Shi Qu Ni" ("Can't Lose You").

They also performed Mayday's "Party Animal," further hyping up the crowd.

The arena erupted once again when they performed another fan favorite, their rendition of Elvis Presley's "Can't Help Falling in Love."

Aside from joining the reunion stage, Ashin also delivered a solo performance, during which he thanked the audience for giving him such a warm Filipino welcome.

Jerry Yan then returned to the stage for his solo set, performing fan favorites including "Insomnia Letter." Before concluding his set, he sang the iconic "Wo Shi Zhen De Zhen De Hen Ai Ni."

The three F4 members reunited once more to perform "Ni Yao De Ai," one of the most beloved songs from the "Meteor Garden" soundtrack, bringing back cherished memories for longtime fans.

They ended the concert with their hit "Meteor Rain," extending the final performance to spend more time with the audience before saying goodbye.

Before leaving the stage, Van Ness thanked the fans with a heartfelt message: "All good things must come to an end, but not today. Welcome to F FOREVER. Tonight will always be in our hearts. We will keep this moment with us forever. Thank you, guys. Mahal kita."
