My Dream Boat 1967
船
Chi Yuan and Tang Ke-hsin find an unexpected spark during a Christmas gathering, creating ripples of jealousy and heartache within the tightly knit circle of siblings Tu Chia-wen and Chia-ling. A hunting accident sends their lives into emotional freefall, separating lovers, straining family bonds, and pushing each character toward choices that echo for years to come. What begins as a tender love triangle spirals into a multigenerational saga of longing, regret, and redemption, culminating in both reunion and irreversible loss.
