You Are the Apple of My Eye

In a sun‑drenched private high school where friendships feel like a tightly woven tapestry, a close‑knit circle of students navigates the familiar pressures of exams, expectations, and the restless yearning that defines adolescence. The campus buzzes with whispered ambitions and the subtle hierarchy of popularity, creating a backdrop that is simultaneously vibrant and fragile, where every hallway feels like a stage for unspoken emotions.

At the heart of this world shines Shen Chia‑yi, a bright and charismatic student whose effortless charm earns her admiration from teachers and peers alike. Her confidence masks the quiet vulnerability that often accompanies being the center of attention, and her presence sets the tone for both lighthearted banter and deeper, unvoiced yearning among her friends.

Across the room, Ko Ching‑teng carries the reputation of a mischievous, under‑achieving outsider who insists he has no interest in the spotlight—especially not in Shen Chia‑yi. His swagger and apparent indifference hide a more complex inner life, one that begins to stir when he finds himself drawn into the orbit of the popular girl and the tangled web of the group’s dynamics. Their interactions hint at a push‑and‑pull that promises both tension and unexpected tenderness.

The film breathes with a nostalgic, slightly bittersweet tone, capturing the intoxicating blend of youthful romance, rivalry, and the quest for self‑understanding that defines that pivotal teenage years. As the characters wade through ordinary school days, their hidden desires and growing connections suggest that the simplest moments can carry the weight of unforgettable change, inviting the audience to linger on the lingering possibilities of first love and the lingering echoes of friendship.
