Oriental Beauty

東方美人

In 1860s, WEI Zhi-yun could distinguish kinds of tea since the age of 9. To make tea, she unbound her her feet and crossed the Taiwan Strait, leaving her hometown, but couldn’t witness the ‘Oriental Beauty,’ the tea she created, that astonished the world. In 2027, YUAN You-Yuan came back to Taiwan after studying in pastry in England. While she lost herself under the challenges both in career and love, she incidentally made the traditional Taiwanese dessert and tea and finally got back her mind. Zi-Zai, an immortal woman , obeying to ‘Destiny,’ intervened in WEI’s life and met You-yuan — a girl whose life course echoes WEI’s. She decides to defy Destiny, for WEI Zhi-yun, YUAN You-yuan, and for herself.
