Meiyu, also known as Yellow Plum Blossom Day, refers to the rain that falls on the fronts of hot and cold air at the turn of spring and summer, i.e., the natural climate phenomenon of persistent cloudy skies with rain in Central China, Taiwan, south-central Japan, and southern Korea between May and June every year.

  "Hello, I'm Yen-Chi Wu, and my name is KFC..." (Taiwanese) "Hello, I'm Yen-Chi Wang from Pipe..."

While we were still discussing the topic of accident safety with our children, the news broadcasted two horrific cases that shocked the community and gave people the creeps. In one of the cases, the murderer treated the victim with extreme brutality, and it was hard to guess why he did such a thing, and did such a heinous thing. Was it a moment of impulse and anger? Or was it ....... The victims were all women, while the murderer was a boy, a familiar face and an intellectual. When men and women quarrel to the point of fighting
