BOYISH GROWTH AND VALUES

"Why are we fighting this war? For our country, for our nation, so that our families can live peacefully in this New China. Our duty is to defend our nation and our home"

The project took 5 years from initial concept to script, with filming beginning in December 2022 and then wrapping in April 2023.
In order to shoot some scenes, they shot at MINUS 40 DEGREES...
This is a political and propaganda drama, showing Chinese courage and bravery to sacrifice for their ideals and Korean ingratitude to turn away from them and serve the enemy.
I loved Wang Ziqi as Wanli ❤️ his growth and maturity shows throughout the drama as he bonds with his teammates. of the squad. I felt particularly close to Qianli though. This drama really makes you experience the real feelings and sensations on the skin, becoming more captivating and intense.
Between the cruelty of war and friendship, it was also suffering.
Melancholy but hopeful ending, realistic one, heartfelt one.
Honor to those martyrs.
