A beautiful coming of age romance
22 August 2023
Every young person struggles with the idea of figuring out the rest of their life and knowing who they want to be. This story beautifully brings together elements of connecting with your heritage, romance, figuring out the next steps of your life, the importance of family, being true to yourself, and living in the moment. It sounds like a lot to roll into one movie, but this is an effortless adaptation of the original material.

It's wonderfully cast, doesn't rely on high drama to get its point across, and will take you back to your teen years. The days when you thought you needed to know what the rest of your life was meant to look like and felt pressured by the expectations of your parents, and you really just needed to have someone tell you that it's okay to be yourself and figure it out as you go.

There was wonderful chemistry between the cast, be that romantic or friendship, the backdrop was beautiful, and it did an amazing job showing off the culture of Taipei in a short runtime.

Definitely recommended to anyone who has read the book, fans of Asian drama shows, or anyone who connects with teen and new adult rom coms.
