All of the discussions and the new trends from the movie are created out of an act of imagination. "They truly believe, at a special moment, at a special location, it is love that brings them together. This is why love is so beautiful." Countless people have taken this message to heart and imagined that, one day, it just might happen to them. I always wonder why we have romantic movies. Are they made to teach people about love, or rather to satisfy their dreams? When it all comes down to it, I've found that all the popular movies that are considered masterpieces are popular because they talk about the near impossibility of finding true love. This is one reason why "Turn Left, Turn Right" is special. But on top of that, this movie also brings up another question—how can we be sure the stranger who just passed us by is our true love? These films address the unanswered questions that truly involve the audience. At the same time, leaving that aside, let me say that I'm impressed with Jimi's (the cartoonist's) style of story-telling. A big thunderstorm destroys the mobile phones which have the contact information of two strangers, disconnecting them indefinitely in a big metropolitan city. This shows us how people living in big cities are so reliant on technology and how our connections are so easy to interrupt. And before I finish, let me quickly mention that the soundtrack is also worth collecting. The previous cassette of the story by Jimi and Elva Hsiao tried to use music to put together the story. Although it wasn't perfect, it was still a must-have item for many teenagers. It's too bad that this is out of print now and really hard to find. Yes, it is a pity, but it is also the beauty of love and it's sad that the movie can't give us a once-in-a-lifetime surprise. ----Pinyin---- hoeng3 zo2 zau2, hoeng3 jau6 zau2 zik6 dou3 tai2 zo2 din6 jing2 ge3 jin2 zik1 jan4 jyun4 ming4 daan1, ngo5 sin1 zi3 faat3 gok3 ni1 go3 dou1 hai6 dou6 kei4 fung1 ge3 din6 jing2, ging1 ngaa2 cing4 dou6 fei1 tung4 siu2 ho2. zok3 wai4 maan6 waa2 gaa1 gei2 mai5 ge3 sing4 ming4 zok3 goi2 pin1 din6 jing2, ni1 bou6 pin2 jan5 hei2 ge3 jit6 ciu4 tung4 tou2 leon6 ciu1 fu4 so2 jau5 jan4 ge3 soeng2 zoeng6. 「keoi5 dei6 bei2 ci2 sam1 seon3, hai6 seon3 gaan1 ping3 faat3 ge3 jit6 cing4 joeng6 keoi5 dei6 soeng1 jyu6, gam2 joeng2 kok3 ding6 hai6 mei5 lai6 ge3, daan6 bin3 waan6 mou4 soeng4 gang3 wai4 mei5 lai6.」 mou4 sou3 jan4 tai2 wui6 zoek3 ni1 geoi3 waa6, mak6 mak6 gam2 cung1 ging2 zoek3 leoi6 ci5 ge3 cing4 zit3. ngo5 sing4 jat6 nam2, oi3 cing4 pin2 cyun4 zoi6 ge3 lei5 jau4 hai6 me1, hai6 wai6 zo2 ling6 dou3 jan4 gang3 hou2 gam2 jing6 sik1 keoi5? ding6 hai6 wai6 zo2 mun5 zuk1 jan4 ge3 jyun6 mong6? daan6 hai6 zeoi3 zung1 faat3 jin6 nang4 gau3 jan5 hei2 jan4 jit6 lit6 zeoi1 pung2 sing4 wai4 ging1 din2 ge3 oi3 cing4 din6 jing2, cy [...]
