Features: On his 41st birthday, a man receives a letter without a signature or address from a dying woman. The letter tells a heart-wrenching love story, and the male protagonist of the story, the letter's recipient, is completely unaware of it. The story begins 18 years ago, with her first encounter with the man. She was just a child then, and later experienced the obsession of a teenager, the passion of youth, and even fell into the world of prostitution, but never changed her love for the man. It wasn't until the brink of death that she decided to confess—lying on the desolate deck of fate, the white foam carried her toward nothingness.
