Some Song: "Brother Xiaoliang!"
Yu Liang: "…"
Some Song: "Liang-ge!!"
Yu Liang: "…"
Some Song: "Yu Liang!!!"
Yu Liang: "That's more like it."
Song Mei: "…"
Song Mei was trying to hook "Yu," never imagining that "Yu" would be the one to bite the hook. Even more terrifying, "Yu" had bitten down on it himself and personally placed the fishing rod in her hands.
Yu Liang: "Hold on to the rod. I've got the hook clenched tight. I'll never let go, even if I die. Alive, I'm your fish; dead, I'm still your dried fish."
Song Mei: "…"
Song Mei was born into a family of guqin players and trained in both music and Go. Thanks to the connections between their parents' generation, she met the young Go player Yu Liang. At first, they could hold their own against each other and head home as equals. Who could have guessed that six years later, after Yu Liang returned from Korea, Song Mei, who had devoted herself to the guqin, would be utterly defeated by him among the black and white stones on the Go board?
Song Mei was heartbroken. Song Mei was ashamed. Song Mei felt terribly wronged.
Yu Liang, on the other hand, wasn't flustered at all. Just like when they were children, he smoothly produced a piece of candy and managed to cheer her up.
Song Mei is lovely, gentle, and exceptionally skilled at the guqin, a true young lady from a distinguished family. In private, though, she has a distinctly girlish side.
Yu Liang is handsome and clear-eyed, a proper gentleman devoted to the way of Go. He should have been a man who charged straight ahead without hesitation, but he happened to fall for Song Mei.
Behind the guqin and the Go board is the story of two people growing up together, from innocent, awkward children to the companions they become.
Pairing: Yu Liang. Childhood friends, sweet romance.
Theme: Shared ambitions and a common path
