Khue-Guan, a deliveryman living in a cheap apartment, dreams of making it big one day. He happens upon a teenage runaway, Tsing-Bi, and entices her to work in a nightclub to make money for him. Meanwhile, the nightclub hostess, Giok-Sian, pays for Khue-Guan’s company but keeps a no strings attached relationship. When Tsing-Bi becomes pregnant with Khue-Guan’s child, she asks him to marry her but is coldly rejected. Khue-Guan proposes to Giok-Sian only to be sneered at. In the choice between love and money, Khue-Guan must decide what he truly wants.

《危險的青春》（1969）可能是現存台語片中最辛辣且前衛的作品，透過妓女、皮條客、老鴇所組成的三角關係來談道德崩壞的資本社會。在這裡，人人為錢出賣肉體、用錢購買性的歡愉，沒有一個角色是傳統定義中的好人。本片以一台四處狂飆的野狼機車象徵失速的危險青春，肉體慾望的直接呈現、帶有新浪潮風格的美學形式，作為台灣影史上的經典，當之無愧。

Dangerous Youth (1969) is perhaps the most avant-garde and piercing Taiwanese language film that exists today. Through the relationships between a prostitute, a pimp and a procuress, the film presents a capitalist society in moral decay: People are selling their bodies, buying sexual pleasure, and no one is “the good guy” in the traditional sense. The image of speeding motorcycles recurring throughout the film come to symbolize the dangerous, derailing of youth. With its unapologetic depiction of physical desires coupled with New Wave aesthetics, Dangerous Youth is a classic of Taiwanese cinema.
