In terms of external form, this drama has embedded dialects, food, and some iconic place names, but more time and energy is spent on exploring what can truly represent Huichang."The emotion for their hometown is the most touching hidden clue. They have love, entanglement, confusion, hesitation and confusion about this land and living environment. They can't let go of their hometown, can't leave it, and often return. A place to look forward to," Zhao Yiyang said.
