Watch the Romantic Movie Adoring 宠爱
It may sound silly, but in China we give numbers a lot of meaning.
Whether it is lucky numbers, unlucky numbers or homonyms, numbers are important in China.
Because of the way May 20th sounds in Chinese on May 20th and May 21st, we consider these two as valentines days and a great chance to show your love.
Why not watch a romantic Chinese movie with your friends?
The movie is called Adoring (宠爱 chǒng’ài), a romantic comedy movie released in 2019.
The movie tells six stories of people and their pets and how they find love in their lives.
