One Melody, A Lifetime of Regrets

share time: 2026-01-03 06:03:50

Su Wan, the leading actress of Kunqu Opera troupe "Xiao Linchuan", struggles to keep the dying troupe alive with "The Mistake of Floating Life", a piece passed down by her master. To fight for survival, she takes a commercial gig from a wealthy man, only to reunite with Lu Zhao—her ex-boyfriend who split with her due to a misunderstanding. Now a top composer, Lu is back to reclaim the copyright of "The Mistake of Floating Life" for his late mentor. It turns out their "heirloom melodies" share the same origin. While clashing over copyright, they’re torn by unresolved old feelings: Lu once thought Su left him for money, but she was actually raising funds to save her terminally ill master; now the wealthy man is trying to distort "The Mistake of Floating Life" beyond recognition. When the truth comes out, can they let go of obsessions and guard this melody that carries their youth and the master-apprentice bond together?
