On a cold night, January 2009, Sheng-Han and his friends left the Liberty Square, their sites of protest against the state authority during the past two months. It was a movement without achieving any goals. Five years later, the Sunflower Student Movement occupied the Legislative Yuan. For Sheng-Han and his partners, they refused to be stuck in the dead-end situation again.
