Why it worked

The video likely resonated due to its relatable "us vs. them" framing, contrasting the intense focus of athletes with the passionate support of fans. The inclusion of recognizable personalities (JM and Joaquin) as "number 1 fans" would have further amplified engagement within the target audience.

Summary

The video contrasts the intensity of volleyball players on the court with the enthusiastic support of their fans in the stands. It highlights the players' focus and then shifts to show two individuals, identified as JM and Joaquin, cheering them on.

Product placement

ABS-CBN (ACTS - it is the creator of the content, and its branding appears throughout the video. Removing it would change the context of the video as it would remove the source attribution.)
