"Back in the early Republican era people lived in a very moral society. Morality was ingrained in people's psyches, and we could see true feeling and tolerance in the stories of their lives," says Wang Hui-ling. But in today's society, morality has been eroded. Affairs and extra-marital sex are commonplace, but in the battle between morality and feelings, people aren't necessarily any more tolerant.
「那一代人活在一個非常道德的社會，道德在人們的心裡，然而我們在他們的故事裡看到真實的情感、看到了寬容」，王蕙玲說，而現在的社會，道德已然瓦解，那麼多的外遇、婚外情，但對道德、情感之爭，人們卻不見得更寬容。
