Ru: Taiwan Express(2020)

Ru: Taiwan Express follows Haruka Tada, a Tokyo trading company employee sent to Taiwan in 1999 to oversee negotiations for Japan's Shinkansen high-speed rail project. Six years earlier, during a university summer trip, Haruka met Eric, a charming Taiwanese man who spent a day showing her around the island. They lost touch, and she buried those memories. Now, returning to Taiwan on business, Haruka finds herself back in the place where their connection began. As she navigates professional responsibilities and reconnects with the country that captivated her, the possibility of encountering Eric again lingers. The series blends romance with workplace drama, exploring how chance encounters can resurface across time and distance, set against the backdrop of cross-cultural business dealings in late-1990s Asia.
