Parents need to know that Love in Taipei, based on the best-selling novel Loveboat, Taipei by Abigail Hing Wen, is a young adult romance set in Taipei, shot mostly in English, and starring an Asian American cast. The characters, who are largely sent by their immigrant parents to study language and culture in Taiwan for a summer, flirt, date, dance, fall in love, and kiss. They also go clubbing and drink alcohol. Swearing includes words like "s--t," "bulls--t," "hell," "sucks," "stupid," and a middle finger gesture made behind a parent's back. The characters are looking to find their own places in the world, navigating between family expectations and their individual dreams. They treat each other, and their elders (minus one example), gently and respectfully. To stay in the loop on more movies like this, you can sign up for weekly Family Movie Night emails.

The summer before starting medical school, Ever Wong (Ashley Liao) is sent by her immigrant parents from Ohio to their home country of Taiwan to study language and culture in LOVE IN TAIPEI. What Ever finds is a study-abroad program dubbed by its young Asian American participants as the "Love Boat" because they're all looking to have fun and maybe fall in love. Ever makes a fast friend in outgoing Sophie (Chelsea Zhang), whose cousin, Rick (Ross Butler), is a musical prodigy well-known in the global Taiwanese diaspora. Rick takes a quick interest in Ever, but so does Xavier Yeh (Nico Hiraga), an artistic young man rebelling against his strict businessman father. While in Taipei, Ever will try to figure out what she wants to do with her life, and she'll have help from her unconventional artist aunt, Shu (Cindy Cheung).

Thanks to YA authors like Wen and the screen adaptations their work inspires, young Asian Americans are so far beyond the stereotypical stories of the 1990s and early 2000s, with Asians relegated to nerd or sidekick roles. Here, Ever gets to be the winsome hero of her own story and the center of a love triangle (or quadrangle, at times).

Great post! I lived in Hanoi, Vietnam, last year and loved it for reasons similar to those in your post. But the city has the same tiles! Why, in a country known for monsoons, employ a hazardous-when-wet building material?

What was the last paper within the realm of computing you read and loved? What did it inspire you to build or tinker with? Come share the ideas in an awesome academic/research paper with fellow engineers, programmers, and paper-readers. Lead a session and show off code that you wrote that implements these ideas or just give us the lowdown about the paper (because of HARD MATH!). Otherwise, just come, listen, and discuss.

Let love be the driving force for harmony. Let us cast prejudice and hatred aside. Let us emulate David Landsborough and his son, transcending blood ties and geographic boundaries to truly cherish Taiwan.

In the spirit of altruism, Dr. David Landsborough Sr. () and his Taiwan-born son, David Jr. (), dedicated themselves to helping Taiwan's poor and sick for 70 years. During his latest visit toTaiwan, Landsborough Jr. presided over the opening ceremony for the reconstructed Changhua Church, which he founded. Shortly after the event, Landsborough Jr. left Taiwan. But he also left behind him prayers and blessings for the people on this land. After reading the story of the Landsboroughs, I came to realize what love for Taiwan really means.

Cultural and language immersion programs are quite common in Asia as an opportunity for Western Asians to learn a language and to adapt and appreciate a culture that forms part of their identity. This is the focal point in the film Love in Taipei, a love letter to all Westerners with Taiwanese heritage seeing Taiwan for the first time and risking it all to adapt and live that life, in a bid to find a sense of belonging. 006ab0faaa
