Summary

Ren Guang Xi (Vanness Wu), a cocky law student, seems to lead the perfect life. He’s the sole successor to a huge and famous business and a talented ice hockey player with good looks and charisma to boot. But in reality, his lonely life lacks joy, laughter and motivation. That is until he meets Liang Mu Cheng (Ady An), the new bento seller at his school canteen. Although orphaned at a young age, Mu Cheng does not let her past affect her and lives life with great passion and determination. A harmless bet brings the two together and Guang Xi slowly changes as Mu Cheng teaches him how to give and love. Tragedy strikes when Guang Xi suddenly has to go through a major brain surgery, waking up with no memory of his past at all. His mother begs Mu Cheng to leave him and the latter has no choice but to do so. Later she learns that she already has Guang Xi’s child.

Six years pass. Mu Cheng lives a quiet life with her young son in the countryside while Guang Xi is now a successful lawyer with no memory of his past and is engaged to He Yi Qian, the kind and beautiful doctor who took care of him after his surgery. Guang Xi has flashbacks during a case and hits his client which sends him to the same town that Mu Cheng and Xiao Le (Guang Xi's son) is living. After he leaves, Xiao Le goes to Taipei to find "Uncle Guang Xi" and meets Guang Xi's mother and collapses from his illness, diabetes. He Yi Qian, Guang Xi's fiancee operates on Xiao Le and gives Guang Xi a wristband that contains photos of him and Mu Cheng. The day before the wedding, Guang Xi sees a memory card of pictures of the two lovers. Guang Xi suddenly realizes that everything that everyone told him was lies and the memories begin to rush back. A strangely familiar piano piece stirs Guang Xi’s heart as he struggles to recall his past romance with Mu Cheng, which leads to him knowing about the true father of Xiao Le. He leads to the court to fight for custody. How will the couple make up for six years of lost time?

Promotion

As Ady An was filming in China, all publicity touring was held off until February 27, 2010. The drama was also green-lit to be shown in Japan in mid February 2010. However, even with Autumn Concerto's minimal promotion, some of the cast members had been making bets on the ratings of the drama. Chris Wu, who starred as Hua Tuo Ye, jumped off a diving board at a swimming pool as the response to the drama's ratings inclining above 6%. This act was shown on television. Vanness Wu, Chris Wu, Tiffany Xu, and Apple also recorded a thank you video for all their fans because of the ratings of Episode 18.

Notes

  1. ^ A substantial amount of Taiwanese is spoken in the village, while Mandarin is spoken mostly in the Taipei scenes.
