Orion’s Night: At first glance, nothing distinguishes Orion from the average schoolboy. He is shy, self-effacing and secretly in love. But beneath this apparent normalcy, Orion is a hotbed of adolescent angst, filled with completely irrational fears: bees, dogs, the ocean, cell phone waves, killer clowns living in sewers, and even the possibility of falling off a cliff. The thing that scares him the most is what he has to face every night: the dark.
Let’s talk about Chu: Chu Ai (Chan Tzu-Hsuan), the youngest of the family, practices wax therapy while hosting a sex education channel on a social network.

Set against the backdrop of the strained relationship between her parents, played by Miao Ke-Li and Hong Sheng-Te, the series follows Chu Ae as she discovers herself, fulfills her desires and forms a serious relationship.
