Write a short summary of what happens in the film

A woman comes across a T3 Caravelle from the 1980s, evoking her childhood memory of her life with her dad. With the soft rock "Happy!!! Drivers Love Song" by EggPlantEgg in the background, many moving flashbacks of her upbringing in a single-parent household emerge one by one: Dad cutting her hair, making breakfast, missing her birthday due to work, and taking her fishing in a stream to make up for it… There are also conflicts and struggles, especially when she gets the opportunity to study music abroad but can’t leave her father alone. In a blink of an eye, she returns from her studies abroad and takes over her father's business. At the same time, she painstakingly searched for the old car she saw on the road because every part of the car reminds her of her father.

This is a collective memory among the target audiences. 3. Going abroad to study music is a heavy financial burden for many Taiwanese families.
