Hsia Kang-chen

A student from a modest home goes to an elite private school and makes a life-altering agreement with a talking peacock in the schoolyard.

When her daughter's slipping grades threaten their status in life, a mother resorts to extreme measures to avoid losing social standing.

“And they lived happily ever after” is an ending we are all too familiar with. On Marriage focuses on portraying all those struggles that couples encounter when they give up themselves to fulfill their marriage. In this anthology series, each individual episode explores varying meanings of marriage from five unique perspectives.

Adapted from the novel by author Wu Hsiao-Le, the series consists of five independent stories about parenting, as well as children's pressures of growing up, when faced with the tragic consequences of social pressure, parental oppression and family dysfunction. Each story is told in two parts in this ten-part series.
