Synopsis:

Pearl was brought up by her grandmother, who intended to make her a Taiwanese opera star. Grandma pulled all the strings to get Pearl into auditions and she did become a talented child star. However, behind all the glimmer and glamour on stage, she was lonely and sorrowful. Her childhood was consumed in “making money”. To delay Pearl’s physiological maturity, her grandma compressed Pearl’s chest with a cloth and took her to a clinic for injection of somatostatin in her knees.
Another turning point in her life is when she becomes a well-known singer in Southeast Asia and makes a substantial fortune. For the days that she doesn’t have to go up on the stage, she is locked in the house like she is under house arrest. The over-protection posed by her grandma makes her desperate for freedom. When Pearl meets Xie Wen-Qing at the age of 18, her yearning for love and belonging grows deeper and stronger.
