Ji Zu initially lived an idyllic life in a secluded village. Her fate was changed completely when her beauty caught the attention of the young commander of a Chinese in pursuit of the Japanese.

Yu He-tao and Yu He-bao, twin brothers with completely different characters – one a law enforcer and the other a sympathizer of the students' pro-democracy movement which took place in Peking near the end of the twentieth century.
