Eternal Summer

Hmm.. This should be something familiar =) Eternal Summer, a 2006 Taiwan movie production. There is nothing much for me to introduce about.. The synopsis is:
As a child, Shane (Joseph Chang) was an unruly elementary student, who was rebellious and unpopular. While none of the other children would allow Shane to join their groups, Jonathan (Bryant Chang) went forward and befriended Shane. From that moment on, they became best friends.

Ten years later, this friendship has since blossomed and both Shane and Jonathon are inseparable. While Shane considers Jonathon his best friend, Jonathon is coming to terms with growing affection for Shane which he keeps a secret. The story heats up with the addition of a new student, Carrie (Kate Yeung) who enters their high school. She falls for Jonathon and tries to seduce him in a sleazy love hotel which ends up botched. She soon suspects Jonathon’s feelings for Shane.

At the same time, Shane begins to take an interest in Carrie and they start a relationship that they keep secret from Jonathon. Jonathon carries on struggling with his sexual identity crisis, while Shane tries to his best to understand Jonathon’s withdrawal. Jonathon becomes more confused after Shane beds him one night. Despite their efforts to keep their personal feelings secret, the three of them will finally have to clarify their intertwined relationship.
Synopsis from Asian Gay Films.com, admin, 26 October 2008
Here are some notes from Wikipedia:
There is an astrological symmetry in the character's names:

¤ Shane - 守恒 Shou Heng stands for 恒星 Heng Xing - star (the Sun).
¤ Jonathan - 正行 Zheng Xing stands for 行星 Xing Xing - planet (the Earth).
¤ Carrie - 慧嘉 Hui Jia stands for 彗星 Hui Xing - the Comet.The Sun always shines.

The Earth follows its route surrounding the Sun, but cannot approach it.
The Comet brings surprise to the solar system.
The picture is incomplete without any one of them.
