Laborer's Love/Romance of a Fruit Peddler (勞工之愛情/擲果緣)

Featured image

A familiar tale: Cheng has eyes for gal, he defends her against bullies, then proposes to her, but her dad demands Cheng first prove himself. This work is elevated from mundaneness by Cheng, a happy-go-lucky oddball with his own wacky way of handling the world - sort of a silent version of Pee Wee Herman.
