Synopsis:

Adolescence is like a heavy rain. Even though you catch a cold from it, you still look forward to experiencing it once again. Ko-Teng has several close friends who had a crush on Shen Chia-Yi. Those friends of Ko's thus moved in unison from Ching Cheng's junior high school straight into the senior high school division in pursuit of her. Naughty in nature, Ko was ordered by their homeroom teacher to sit in front of honor student Shen for her to keep close tabs on him. The two hadn't hit it off at first but Ko gradually fell for Shen, who was always pressuring him to study hard. On the other hand, Shen became impressed by the contrasting values Ko represented. Ko started pursuing Shen but Shen remained hesitant. After graduation from senior high, Ko and Shen almost became a couple but the deal was spoilt by a duke out (fistfight) competition organized by Ko. Growing up together to witness their beloved Shen walking down the aisle to become someone else's wife, these boys have learned their coming-of-age lessons and continue to pursue each's happiness.

My Comments: I missed the chance to watch it in Cinemas so I've decided to watch it at home instead by watching original DVD. It was indeed a great movie to watch and I can imagine that I am back to the life of the school days and it was indeed memorable. This story tells about a male and a female both known each other on the same class and they fell in love with each other. This guy is very playful and do not want to study until he knows this girl where he started to study after he know the girl as the girl taught him and finally he passed his exam thanks to her. Then both of them graduated and then extend their studies to university. There, their relationship began to turned sour and then they involved in an argument. After that, everything turns differently where the guy had become a novel writer while the girl will get married with a guy that she known while working. It was all memories till then where it's the guy turn to write the experience he had during adolescence time. It was a truly real and touching story for all to watch especially the young or adults where you can actually recall your school days memory. It was a well documented movie and congratulations to the director Giddens Ko who had apparently bring us back to old times. A great movie to watch with no regrets. MY RATING: 5/5
