You are the apple of my eye, I will cherish you into my soul.

You Are The Apple of My Eye to me is quite familiar because a bunch of my friends have watched, also the trailers and music video were spreaded everywhere.

I planned to watch it for two weeks but for some reasons I've done it yesterday, as what my friend said, it is not a blockbuster but for the 1980s' and 1990s' youth, it would remind you the secondary school life, which is the period of puberty. As many popular films, this is based on the novel of Giddens Ko, who is also the director of this delicious "apple".

Youth are always filled with romance and friendship,  there almost no exception for this type of movies, Chia yi is the typical good girl in a class, teacher's pet and the monitor, while the Ko Ching-Teng(also known as Ko Teng), the leader of his gang, play the role of troublemaker, due to a accident they were arranged to sit one front and another behind. Teacher asked Chia yi took care of Ko Teng, when Ko Teng did anything against rules, she would use her blue pen to poke the guy, so after many years the ink on the uniform still quite clear, it is the marks of youth also.

Chia yi normally didn't like Ko Teng, but once when teacher were finding the punching bag, she forgot to bring textbook, Ko Teng stood up for her and gave her his book, he was forfeited to do frog jump while raising the chair. Study is the main theme of this piece of music,but all the little things twisted in girls' and boys' mind is the every single note consist of the melody;)

They became good friends, time went by, after they took college entrance exam, they went to beach play water and have fun together because they knew it was hard to gather when they went to different places.

At the end of the movie, they are never together, Chia yi married to another guy, Ko Teng and his gang attended her wedding ceremony, it was like flash-back, when Ko Teng kissed the groom as he was kissing Chia yi, all the memory flash back, their youth their school life and their laughters...

Imperfaction is the sign of youth, it has flaws but its may become the reason you recall it.
