The Trailer and plot

Chu Ai is a wax therapist, who also runs a decently successful sex education channel on social media. While doling out facts to her followers about the ‘sexual crisis’ of Taiwanese people in the trailer, Chu Ai asserts her life’s motto ‘Only sex, no love.’

She does have a long-term friends-with-benefits relationship with her friend Ping Ke though, who shares her cynical approach towards love. As for her siblings, Chu Wei gets enveloped by her complicated marriage with her professor, who states in the trailer that he no longer likes her for the way she is.

He also refuses to have sexual relations with her under some pretext or the other, like having papers to grade. As Chu Wei begins to find companionship elsewhere, she questions herself, her marriage, and love, not knowing whether her heart seeks sexual satisfaction or emotional comfort.

Brother Yu Se has just ended a long-term relationship with his boyfriend, and his lonely heart is seeking respite. And as for their parents, their relationship is strained while their satisfaction lies away from each other.

As this family explores their sexual frustration and emotional repression, the social implications of the embodiment come to the front, showcasing the requirement of open conversations about love and sexuality in Asian households.

Director Remii Huang discussed this matter with Netflix and straightened her goals with them. She stated that she had infused her own life experiences in the series. Let’s Talk About Chu is aimed to initiate conversations about the much-avoided topic of sexuality and the importance of fostering healthy relationships.
