After graduating from junior high school, 15-year-old rural boy A Yuan (played by Wang Jingwen) gave up his studies and came to Taipei to work due to his family's financial difficulties. He experienced the hardships of life for the first time, but still strived for his ideals. A year later, A Yuan's childhood sweetheart, A Yun (played by Xin Shufen), also came to Taipei and learned that the real Taipei was a completely different world from what A Yuan had described in his letter. However, the difficult circumstances did not diminish their happiness, for they had each other.

Coupled with the panic about the future, A Yun chose to marry someone else before A Yuan was discharged from the military. Although there was sadness, A Yuan could only choose to suppress it.[Collapse]
