Story of Tenderness

Story of Tenderness Plot:

Su Wan, a cultural relic restorer, takes on the task of repairing a yellowed old diary, only to stumble into the “territory” of Lin Ye, a second-hand bookstore owner—this diary is the relic of Lin Ye’s grandmother. In the diary, the grandmother filled every page with her “story of tenderness” for her missing lover in shaky handwriting. In reality, Su Wan, traumatized by her mother’s failed marriage, is a “repair machine” afraid to touch love; Lin Ye, haunted by his grandmother’s final regret, hides his deep feelings behind a cynical smile. As they search for the diary’s unfinished threads—finding the old residence of the grandmother’s lover, opening unposted letters—the tenderness, dusted by time, gradually shines into their hearts. It turns out the thing most in need of repair is never old objects, but the selves that dare not love.
