Description

[Machine Translation] The famous song "Wakaba no Koro" from the classic "Small Love Melody" is revived as a new pure love story! Following "Blue Summer Love", "The Undisclosed Secret" and "I Chased You Back Then", a new masterpiece of Taiwanese love story is born. The lead role is played by Lu Lu Chen, who gained attention for his role in the Taiwanese version of "Bi-Men-Ko", and makes his film debut in his first starring role. In her first starring role, she plays the dual role of Bai, the main character, and her mother of 30 years ago, whose cute charm is accentuated by her wavy hair of 30 years ago. The year is 1982, when the mother was 17 years old, and the year is 2013, when the daughter is 17. The story traces the dazzling yet sad memories of first love across 30 years, and is a gem of a love story that will reach a wide range of generations. --Bai ( Ru Ru Ru ), a 17-year-old high school girl living in Taipei, lives with her divorced mother and grandmother. She is enjoying her high school life, but recently, she has been troubled by the relationship between her best friend Wen and her male friend Ye. One day, her mother, Wan ( Alyssa ), is critically injured in a car accident. In the midst of her grief, Bai accidentally finds an unsent e-mail on her mother's computer, addressed to her first love, Lynn ( Richie ). In it, Bai finds an unsent e-mail to her first love, Lynn ( Ritchie ), in her mother's computer. Thinking of his mother's youth in the distant past, Bai sends an e-mail to Lynn on her behalf, saying that he misses her....
