You are the apple of my eyes

A movie that impresses everyone, lets us watch the trailer to see how well the movie was! 


This movie was based on a novel- You are the apple of my eyes written by author Giddens Ko.  And now it turned to be a movie. To add on, the story lines were reflecting the teen-life of Giddens in Chang Hua, Taiwan. The best Chinese romance movie ever for me in this year! 



The film is a gentle reflection of popular author Giddens Ko's (九把刀) teenage years in Changhua, kicking off right away with a grown-up Giddens, played by Ko Chen-tung (柯震東), waiting to attend a wedding. The film then switches back to a 16-year-old Giddens, biking to school while meeting up with his friends on the way.

Based on a novel, “You Are the Apple of My Eyes” tells the story of five guys, including Giddens, who strived to win over the heart of classmate Shen Chia Yi (沈佳宜), played by Michelle Chen (陳妍希), who successfully imprints her character onto our hearts and that of many Taiwanese teenagers.

Main Hero- Ke Chen Tong
The film is split into three parts: high school, university and the aftermath. Each part illustrates a different phase and level of the relationship between Giddens and Shen Chia Yi.

The high school portion of the movie is the longest; it strings our hearts together and spins them right into a memory tunnel with the scarred, drawn and worn out wooden chairs and desks, the girl poking the boy sitting in front with a pen, and the school uniforms.
They were assigned to sit front-back arrangement 

The university years then show how the pair left their hometown and strived to maintain a long-distance relationship, which received a fine dose of real-life challenges.

Time to separate, God arranges everything with a reason

The aftermath includes major turning points and decisions. Those with pet-peeves towards loose plot ends and underdeveloped characters need not worry. The film develops each and every character thoroughly, as well as gives a tip of the hat to how Giddens' career began as a writer. A two-part surprise epilogue appears during and after the credits, so be sure to stay for it.

“Maybe in an alternate universe, we will be together,” said Giddens to Shen Chia Yi years after their last encounter ended in unfortunate misunderstandings. Not only do Giddens' words make us feel better about the fictional pair, they also pat faintly on our backs for those times that we may have allowed fate to slip through our fingertips.

in her school. A dream girl for every guy
 
He shaved his hair cos he loses to Shen in his mid year examination
He made his promise to shave his hair at the middle of the night 

Five of them were best buddies during junior and high school
Five of them were brought together cos of a common interest,
which was to win over Shen's heart 

Life after high school:
Both of them still manage to maintain
a long distant relationship

High School life

bad attitudes in class. And this was how they have feeling toward
each other...
