Dear You Synopsis
Why is everyone crying over this film? The Dear You movie synopsis promises a beautiful, tear-jerking cross-border family drama that hits incredibly close to home for Southeast Asian Chinese families.
The story follows Ye Shurou, grandmother living a quiet life in Chaoshan, China. Her world is turned upside down when her debt-ridden grandson, Xiaowei, secretly flees to Thailand in search of his rumored “billionaire grandfather,” Zheng Musheng, who left China decades ago during the civil war.
Instead of riches, Xiaowei uncovers a tragic, decades-old secret. His grandfather passed away long ago, but a complete stranger had been keeping his memory alive. Through a collection of faded Qiaopi (remittance letters), this mystery individual secretly took over the responsibility of supporting the family back in China for decades. The unfolding truth becomes the ultimate, timeless love letter to a grandmother’s resilience.
Meet the Dear You Movie Casts
What makes this film incredibly authentic is its brilliant use of a largely first-time, non-professional Dear You movie cast who bring raw, genuine emotions to the screen.

- Zheng Runqi as Xiaowei (The desperate, debt-hounded grandson)
