A NETFLIX SERIES
Is everything okay?
I'm fine.
Don't worry.
Mei-mei,
thank you
for keeping me company.
I'm really sorry.
When your husband died,
I didn't get to stay by your side.
Actually, I'm…
I'm scared now.
It's fine if I won't survive.
But if I'm paralyzed,
what should I do?
Don't be scared, Jin.
Don't think about it.
Don't be afraid.
When it's time,
you won't live.
If it's not your time yet,
you won't be gone.
Tell me.
Tell me.
What were you thinking
when your husband died?
Were you scared?
My mind was a complete blank.
Just like how it is in a movie,
everything became so slow.
But it was strange
that a specific song kept playing
in my mind.
Let's sing the song.
What?
Let's sing it.
Come with me.
Let's go. Come on. Come with me.
Okay.
I'M REALLY SCARED OF
SUDDENLY LOSING EVERYTHING
I recorded this.
"My parents and my sister."
I don't remember what it is.
Let's listen to it.

Chen Ru-rong!
You're crazy!
No, you're crazy!
-Our singing…
-It's time for your mom and I to sing.
-Mei-mei.
-No.
Let's sing "Legend of Condor Hero."
No. We've sung it so many times. No!
But you still can't sing it well.

-Forever and ever
You'll drive yourself crazy.
How does it work?
I want to play the tape.
Stop fumbling with it!
We haven't finished it. Why did you stop?
Don't you know what responsibility is?
Weird… Not a sound.
Fine. What do you want me to do?
I want to smell your armpits.
Raise your arm!
It smells like mango.
I love it.
Really? Smell it again.
-No! I want to listen! Wait!
-No way!
-No! No way!
-Let me listen! Don't touch it!
Maybe the other smells like pineapple.
Chen Ru-rong!
Don't tell anyone. Or I'll kill you!
I don't know what Cha looks like,
but I know what he smells like.
Up yours!
Calm down.
Let's eat shaved ice with mangoes.
Shaved ice with mangoes.
Hello, gluttonous babies.
It's mealtime.
Were you forbidden
to eat while walking since young?
I'm going to fulfill your childhood wish.
I'm eating fried chicken
while walking in downtown Taipei.
Fresh fried chicken is the best.
Do you want a bite?
Thank you for loving it.
Is the guy behind you the cheating scumbag
involved in the French fries incident?
Let me introduce you.
This is my boyfriend.
Say hello to them.
THANK YOU SUPER8
FOR SENDING FRESH FECES
We're fine.
Thank you for asking.
Why is he hiding his face?
Weren't his photos already found online?
What's he afraid of?
Hey, Super8!
Don't go off topic.
I'm so jealous of him.
He is a sugar baby of an influencer.
No wonder he dumped
his ex-girlfriend after using her.
I'm going to kick you out, Super8.
That's my boyfriend.
There you are.
He'll be with me in my livestreams
from now on.
He bought the fried chicken for me.
It's rare for him to know
that he must pay when depending on a slut.
Not bad.
Hey, Super8!
Don't insult a lady.
Second warning.
Get lost if you don't like it.
Sorry, I mistook an heiress for a slut.
There's a blog here
about you and your boyfriend.
Is it true?
SUPER8, LOG OUT
ARE YOU SURE?
YES.
I WON'T MESS WITH YOU
IF YOU DON'T MESS WITH ME
By the way,
I've got a surprise for you.
Really?
What's that?
You'll see.
Tell me now.
What's the rush?
I can't steal my best friend's man.
It's so embarrassing.
I've made up my mind
to see my ex-boyfriend again.
If we don't talk it out,
I can't marry someone else.
You're phubbing instead of studying.
You never listen to me, do you?
Fine. Don't blame me.
Memorize Song of Everlasting Sorrow.
-What?
-But
as far as Yang Guifei is concerned,
Song of Purity and Peace is shorter
than Song of Everlasting Sorrow.
Song of Purity and Peace by Li Bai
is about the prosperous years
of Tang Dynasty
while Song of Everlasting Sorrow
by Bai Ju-yi
is about the middle and late Tang.
They're different.
I want you to memorize them
to understand the lady's story
from different points of view.
Come on!
Mind the length difference!
-Yes.
-Yes.
Boys only care
about the length.
Chen Ruo-min!
-What?
-You've fixed your scooter.
Does it still work?
Yes, sure.
Here. Blow it.
Good. No drinking and riding.
Well…
How is the test?
What test?
Don't play dumb. I saw you buy…
That.
You saw me? Are you watching me?
Why should I?
I write novels. I'm observant.
So have you…
Yes.
And?
Negative.
Great. You scared me.
I'm glad it's negative.
But I'm surprised that
you haven't got pregnant.
After all, you're so…
So…
Fertile.
I was wondering
if he would change
when I got pregnant.
But you can't have the baby
of that goddamn two-timer.
You miss him, don't you?
Why don't you smell a real mango instead?
I don't know why,
but whenever I smell a mango,
I think of Dad's look
of expecting us
to say that
we love his cooking
when he got busy in the kitchen, sweating.
Yes. I miss that too.
Listen.
Whatever Cha says to you
or whatever he smells like,
just don't hesitate anymore.
He can run away,
but not you when you're pregnant.
You can't let him
cheat on you again and again.
I don't like being cheated on.
Okay. I'm going to work.
Yes.
Be careful.
Ride safe.
Okay.
No time.
You're old.
I'm young, okay?
You'll marry me.
My friend is sick.
Don't worry.
I go to the mountains.
I go to the sea.
I'm very healthy.
You envy me.
Cats, out!
No! No cats!
The cat is out.
What a spoilsport!
I'm glad
that I'll go to London soon.
My daughter. She's not attached.
Why am I speaking to you in English?
What are these?
What are you going to London for?
I don't know what you're thinking…
What's that?
A map of the hidden corpses
of a serial killer?
What do you think?
And these…
What are you doing?
What's this dress? It's terrible!
You don't know it.
It's from the United Arab Emirates.
I have a cyber friend who raises camels.
And that Englishman
promised to bring his daughter here
to visit me.
I wonder what he loves to eat.
Englishmen like to eat the meat
of sharp-tongued money-loving old hags
with no sense of security.
What are you talking about?
You should say
that I'm a humorous, down-to-earth,
and vulnerable foreign lady.
Mom,
aren't you afraid they're love swindlers
who only want your money?
Maybe he…
You mean, whoever I've picked
doesn't love me at all?
You're jealous.
You don't want me to get married.
I think I'm going to witness
what a slip might cause.
Ru-rong, I know you're worried about me.
But a lot of men
are lining up for me.
EMONDORA: @HANDSOMETODEATH,
HOW ABOUT KARAOKE?
HANDSOMETODEATH: WHAT? JUST US?
BOSS NEVER COMES.

SICILYQUEEN: YOU'RE SURE I'M A GIRL?
CHA: SO YOU'RE NOT?
BUT WE CAN STILL BE FRIENDS.
CHA: ARE YOU MAD? I'M SORRY…
SICILYQUEEN:
YOU SHOULD SAY SORRY TO MIN.
SICILYQUEEN LOGGED OUT
CHIEF EDITOR:
WHEN WILL I GET YOUR MANUSCRIPT
OF THE STORY
WHERE ROMANCE MEETS ADULT VIDEO?
SENIOR: RU-RONG, I NEED TO TALK TO YOU.
WHERE ARE YOU? I'M COMING RIGHT NOW.
RU-RONG: I'M IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
I'LL GO TO YOUR PLACE.
Hurry…
Xiang-yu,
I'm so glad
to see you again.
But I know that
you still love your ex-girlfriend.
And I can't compete with her.
So I've decided
to let you go.
My Mr. Right is turning into a werewolf?
Ru-rong, I…
Your shirt is soaking wet.
I can't talk
while staring at your nipples.
Maybe you should change your clothes.
I'm sorry.
Wait for me.
Why don't you
take them off?
They're wet.
Take what off?
Your socks.
Absolutely, no.
Well…
You've got the socks for me?
Yes, just for you.
Thank you.
Can you turn around?
Yes.
I won't look.
Are you done?
Don't turn back. I'm not done yet.
You can't look at me.
I have to talk to you.
But if you turn back,
I can't talk to you
when I look into your eyes.
Fine.
I won't turn around.
But Ru-rong,
I have something to talk to you.
I'll say it first.
Actually, I want to tell you
that I'm glad to see you again.
I know it's all in my head,
but…
I can't help it.
You're walking hormones.
I…
I know I can't think like that.
No, it's not true.
It's not true. You're wrong.
-Actually--
-No! I understand!
I'll wish you happiness.
No. Please.
-Please don't interrupt me.
-No, I know. Don't say it.
I can't hold it anymore…
Ru-rong?
Wait. I need to go to the bathroom.
What's wrong with you, Ru-rong?
Ru-rong!
Play some music. As loud as you can.
-What music did you say?
-Go!
She's cute.
Ru-rong?
Are you all right?
I don't mind if you laugh at me.
You won't see me again after all.
Ru-rong…
I want to tell you something about me.
When I graduated from college,
I had a car accident
and hurt my brain.
And I lost most of my memory.
-You're going to meet your ex-boyfriend?
-Yes.
If he was so perfect,
why did you break up with him?
Well, he…
When I got out of the hospital,
I didn't even remember
what my ex-girlfriend looked like.
I broke up with him
while he was hospitalized.
He didn't even have a chance
to talk to me.
I know it wasn't fair to him.
But she…
She broke up with me
when I lost my memory.
I'm afraid that my ex
bears a grudge against me.
Otherwise, when we were in Okinawa,
he could've done it with me…
I know.
She's a merciless gold digger,
a beautiful but lusty girl.
How do you know that?
All boys love sexy but cold-hearted girls.
Go on.
But the strange thing is…
With the dumb brain of mine,
I recognized you instantly
when I saw you at the convenience store.
Hey…
Senior!
I think…
God was guiding me.
You're like a fragrance
that's lingering in my mind.
Ru-rong?
Ru-rong! What did you eat?
Leek dumplings.
Ru-rong!
Listen to me, Ru-rong!
I've realized that I'm in love with you.
In love with me?
But it's impossible.
What do you love about me?
I don't deserve you.
All of you.
I love you.
What is it?
How was it?
Satisfied?
With what?
Compared to your exes,
how was it?
It lasted
long.
What are you thinking?
I'm thinking…
I wish my dad were here
to see how happy I am.
Don't think about another man
when you're with me.
But I was talking about my dad.
No!
Now…
Right now…
There's just our heartbeat.
Just you and me.
All right.
Drop the idea.
Hopefully, I'll replace your dad one day.
I'll give you everything.
Nobody can replace my dad.
My name is Rose.
Taiwanese pasta?
-Yes.
-And dumpling "soap"?
Dumpling soup.
-Soup.
-Good, good.
I'm marrying an Englishman soon.
Congratulations.
Wait.
This one.
-Good.
-Why did she take our food?
-Pig.
-It's okay. She will return it.
You like it?
Good.
-Try it.
-No…
What is the feast for?
I'm getting married in England.
I'm happy and have a good appetite.
You speak English fluently now.
But you need to be prepared.
I heard that English people are boring.
Don't worry.
I'll make him interested in me
and submit himself to my body language.
But…
I won't get to eat these in England.
I need to eat more now.
Here's the deal.
I'll take you to England with me.
You can sell.
What?
Fish and chips.
To start anew.
Don't be like your grandma,
so gloomy.
Your grandma suffered from melancholia
because your grandpa cheated on her.
She tried to commit suicide
again and again.
Your dad was always afraid
that she would kill herself.
That's why Dad loved you so much.
Someone told me that
he's scared of losing everything.
Dad chose to protect you.
He didn't run away.
Your dad would've agreed with me.
Give me a half-blooded baby
while you can.
It's Auntie Jin.
Hello?
That's the song. That's it.
-Were you weeping secretly?
-Were you weeping secretly?
-Weeping in secret?
-Weeping in secret?
-You'd rather tolerate
-You'd rather tolerate
-All the pain yourself
-All the pain yourself
-Were you weeping secretly?
-Were you weeping secretly?
-Weeping in secret?
-Weeping in secret?
-You don't trust anybody
-You don't trust anybody
-Don't want me to let them know
-Don't want me to let them know
-You don't answer the phone
-You don't answer the phone
-It just keeps ringing…
-It just keeps ringing…
Mei-mei…
Jin… She's…
-Jin!
-I want you to know
-That your tears
-That your tears
-Have broken my heart
-Have broken my heart
-Into pieces
-How could you…
-How could you…
-I left quietly
-Just cry your eyes out
-Just cry your eyes out
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Honey?
-Are you family?
What's the name of the patient?
-What's wrong, Mrs. Xu?
-He's my husband.
I don't know.
He just fell to the floor.
Okay.
-Here's the seat for family members.
-Honey.
No!
No!
Jin!
-I want you to know
-I want you to know
-That your tears
-That your tears
-Have broken my heart into pieces
-Have broken my heart into pieces
-I left quietly
-I left quietly
-Just cry your eyes out
-Just cry your eyes out
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
Let your tears run wild now
Let your tears run wild now
Mei-mei…
You'll live happily.
You're the best.
Even if everyone knows
we're going to die sooner or later,
when it happens,
we still think
that it's an accident.
To disappear suddenly
may be a promise.
Leaving without
saying goodbye.
Nothing is constant.
Whether you're a queen on the Internet
or an ordinary person in reality.
Honey?
Honey…
We're going through a changing world
where it's transient every day.
As long as you understand that,
I'll…
always be here.
ADAPTED FROM CHEN MING-MIN'S NOVEL
Is everything okay?
I'm fine.
Don't worry.
Mei-mei,
thank you
for keeping me company.
I'm really sorry.
When your husband died,
I didn't get to stay by your side.
Actually, I'm…
I'm scared now.
It's fine if I won't survive.
But if I'm paralyzed,
what should I do?
Don't be scared, Jin.
Don't think about it.
Don't be afraid.
When it's time,
you won't live.
If it's not your time yet,
you won't be gone.
Tell me.
Tell me.
What were you thinking

Were you scared?

Just like how it is in a movie,

I'm young, okay?
You'll marry me.
My friend is sick.
Don't worry.
I go to the mountains.
I go to the sea.
I'm very healthy.
You envy me.
Cats, out!
No! No cats!
The cat is out.
What a spoilsport!
I'm glad
that I'll go to London soon.
My daughter. She's not attached.
Why am I speaking to you in English?
What are these?
What are you going to London for?
I don't know what you're thinking…
What's that?
A map of the hidden corpses
of a serial killer?
What do you think?
And these…
What are you doing?
What's this dress? It's terrible!
You don't know it.
It's from the United Arab Emirates.
I have a cyber friend who raises camels.
And that Englishman
promised to bring his daughter here
to visit me.
I wonder what he loves to eat.
Englishmen like to eat the meat
of sharp-tongued money-loving old hags
with no sense of security.
What are you talking about?
You should say
that I'm a humorous, down-to-earth,
and vulnerable foreign lady.
Mom,
aren't you afraid they're love swindlers
who only want your money?
Maybe he…
You mean, whoever I've picked
doesn't love me at all?
You're jealous.
You don't want me to get married.
I think I'm going to witness
what a slip might cause.
Ru-rong, I know you're worried about me.
But a lot of men
are lining up for me.

BUT WE CAN STILL BE FRIENDS.
CHA: ARE YOU MAD? I'M SORRY…
SICILYQUEEN:
YOU SHOULD SAY SORRY TO MIN.
SICILYQUEEN LOGGED OUT
CHIEF EDITOR:
WHEN WILL I GET YOUR MANUSCRIPT
OF THE STORY
WHERE ROMANCE MEETS ADULT VIDEO?
SENIOR: RU-RONG, I NEED TO TALK TO YOU.
WHERE ARE YOU? I'M COMING RIGHT NOW.
RU-RONG: I'M IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
I'LL GO TO YOUR PLACE.
Hurry…
Xiang-yu,
I'm so glad
to see you again.
But I know that
you still love your ex-girlfriend.
And I can't compete with her.
So I've decided
to let you go.
My Mr. Right is turning into a werewolf?
Ru-rong, I…
Your shirt is soaking wet.
I can't talk
while staring at your nipples.
Maybe you should change your clothes.
I'm sorry.
Wait for me.
Why don't you
take them off?
They're wet.
Take what off?
Your socks.
Absolutely, no.
Well…
You've got the socks for me?
Yes, just for you.
Thank you.
Can you turn around?
Yes.
I won't look.
Are you done?
Don't turn back. I'm not done yet.
You can't look at me.
I have to talk to you.
But if you turn back,
I can't talk to you
when I look into your eyes.
Fine.
I won't turn around.
But Ru-rong,
I have something to talk to you.
I'll say it first.
Actually, I want to tell you
that I'm glad to see you again.
I know it's all in my head,
but…
I can't help it.
You're walking hormones.
I…
I know I can't think like that.
No, it's not true.
It's not true. You're wrong.
-Actually--
-No! I understand!
I'll wish you happiness.
No. Please.
-Please don't interrupt me.
-No, I know. Don't say it.
I can't hold it anymore…
Ru-rong?
Wait. I need to go to the bathroom.
What's wrong with you, Ru-rong?
Ru-rong!
Play some music. As loud as you can.
-What music did you say?
-Go!
She's cute.
Ru-rong?
Are you all right?
I don't mind if you laugh at me.
You won't see me again after all.
Ru-rong…
I want to tell you something about me.
When I graduated from college,
I had a car accident
and hurt my brain.
And I lost most of my memory.
-You're going to meet your ex-boyfriend?
-Yes.
If he was so perfect,
why did you break up with him?
Well, he…
When I got out of the hospital,
I didn't even remember
what my ex-girlfriend looked like.
I broke up with him
while he was hospitalized.
He didn't even have a chance
to talk to me.
I know it wasn't fair to him.
But she…
She broke up with me
when I lost my memory.
I'm afraid that my ex
bears a grudge against me.
Otherwise, when we were in Okinawa,
he could've done it with me…
I know.
She's a merciless gold digger,
a beautiful but lusty girl.
How do you know that?
All boys love sexy but cold-hearted girls.
Go on.
But the strange thing is…
With the dumb brain of mine,
I recognized you instantly
when I saw you at the convenience store.
Hey…
Senior!
I think…
God was guiding me.
You're like a fragrance
that's lingering in my mind.
Ru-rong?
Ru-rong! What did you eat?
Leek dumplings.
Ru-rong!
Listen to me, Ru-rong!
I've realized that I'm in love with you.
In love with me?
But it's impossible.
What do you love about me?
I don't deserve you.
All of you.
I love you.
What is it?
How was it?
Satisfied?
With what?
Compared to your exes,
how was it?
It lasted
long.
What are you thinking?
I'm thinking…
I wish my dad were here
to see how happy I am.
Don't think about another man
when you're with me.
But I was talking about my dad.
No!
Now…
Right now…
There's just our heartbeat.
Just you and me.
All right.
Drop the idea.
Hopefully, I'll replace your dad one day.
I'll give you everything.
Nobody can replace my dad.
My name is Rose.
Taiwanese pasta?
-Yes.
-And dumpling "soap"?
Dumpling soup.
-Soup.
-Good, good.
I'm marrying an Englishman soon.
Congratulations.
Wait.
This one.
-Good.
-Why did she take our food?
-Pig.
-It's okay. She will return it.
You like it?
Good.
-Try it.
-No…
What is the feast for?
I'm getting married in England.
I'm happy and have a good appetite.
You speak English fluently now.
But you need to be prepared.
I heard that English people are boring.
Don't worry.
I'll make him interested in me
and submit himself to my body language.
But…
I won't get to eat these in England.
I need to eat more now.
Here's the deal.
I'll take you to England with me.
You can sell.
What?
Fish and chips.
To start anew.
Don't be like your grandma,
so gloomy.
Your grandma suffered from melancholia
because your grandpa cheated on her.
She tried to commit suicide
again and again.
Your dad was always afraid
that she would kill herself.
That's why Dad loved you so much.
Someone told me that
he's scared of losing everything.
Dad chose to protect you.
He didn't run away.
Your dad would've agreed with me.
Give me a half-blooded baby
while you can.
It's Auntie Jin.
Hello?
That's the song. That's it.
-Were you weeping secretly?
-Were you weeping secretly?
-Weeping in secret?
-Weeping in secret?
-You'd rather tolerate
-You'd rather tolerate
-All the pain yourself
-All the pain yourself
-Were you weeping secretly?
-Were you weeping secretly?
-Weeping in secret?
-Weeping in secret?
-You don't trust anybody
-You don't trust anybody
-Don't want me to let them know
-Don't want me to let them know
-You don't answer the phone
-You don't answer the phone
-It just keeps ringing…
-It just keeps ringing…
Mei-mei…
Jin… She's…
-Jin!
-I want you to know
-That your tears
-That your tears
-Have broken my heart
-Have broken my heart
-Into pieces
-How could you…
-How could you…
-I left quietly
-Just cry your eyes out
-Just cry your eyes out
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Honey?
-Are you family?
What's the name of the patient?
-What's wrong, Mrs. Xu?
-He's my husband.
I don't know.
He just fell to the floor.
Okay.
-Here's the seat for family members.
-Honey.
No!
No!
Jin!
-I want you to know
-I want you to know
-That your tears
-That your tears
-Have broken my heart into pieces
-Have broken my heart into pieces
-I left quietly
-I left quietly
-Just cry your eyes out
-Just cry your eyes out
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
-Let your tears run wild now
Let your tears run wild now
Let your tears run wild now
Mei-mei…
You'll live happily.
You're the best.
Even if everyone knows
we're going to die sooner or later,
when it happens,
we still think
that it's an accident.
To disappear suddenly
may be a promise.
Leaving without
saying goodbye.
Nothing is constant.
Whether you're a queen on the Internet
or an ordinary person in reality.
Honey?
Honey…
We're going through a changing world
where it's transient every day.
As long as you understand that,
I'll…
always be here.
