Love Can't Be Said

Tong Zhi, a fourth-year veterinary student, has a crush on Gu Bin, a landscape student from Taipei. She never had the courage to confess, and for the past four years, she wrote all her feelings into unsent letters. With graduation approaching, an unexpected mailing makes Gu Bin misunderstand her intentions, making him think that she likes his good friend instead. As it turns out, she is not the only one who holds secrets and cannot confess. Will she succeed in confessing? A story spanning between two eras and the two cities of Guangzhou and Taipei kicks off.

Directed by Jia-kai Wu, Zhang Zhihong, Love Can't Be Said leans on a strong ensemble — Zhou Yiran, Wu Nien-hsuan, Carmen Tong Ka-Man — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about romance titles of 2023.
