Plot

Ye Xianglun (Jay Chou), a music student majoring in piano, transfers to Tamkang (Danjiang) Secondary School. It is a school famous for musically talented students, especially in piano. On the first day of school, as he wanders through the piano building, he hears a mysterious melody being played that leads him to Lu Xiaoyu (Kwai Lun-mei), another piano major. When he asks her about the song she was playing, she tells him that it is a secret that cannot be told. The two develop a relationship that is clouded in mystery. When Xianglun tells Xiaoyu about the demolition of the piano building on graduation day, she teaches him the mysterious song. One day, Lun gets a photo of Yu, but what surprises him is that Yu is standing next to his father on the photo! The secrets behind Yu and the mysterious melody are going to be unlashed...

My point of view: 

I never thought that this movie was a fictitious one, but that fictitious twist made it so unique and outstanding! The movie was so unpredictable, and hence, there wasn't a scene that was dull. Every moment took my breath away. Must watch! 

This movie was nominated as "Best Asian Film" in 27th Hong Kong Film Awards. There you have it. Enjoy! ;)

Lesson: 

For every story of mystery, there's a secret that puts them into misery.

"Follow the notes upon the journey

At first sight marks one’s destiny

Once the voyage comes to an end

Return lies within hasty keys"
