Drama pays tribute to China's unsung heroes on the hidden frontline
For example, to achieve a more complete emotional arc, the show made a subtle adjustment to a family photograph. Historically, Wu Shi's 1949 Mid-Autumn Festival family portrait did not include his daughter, Xuecheng. To emphasize family bonds and his inner guilt over the separation, the drama added her image — a creative choice that, as Yang said, "preserves Wu Shi's essence as a man who gave hope to others while leaving love and longing to his family."
On one hand, the drama faithfully recreates the tense atmosphere of the "white terror" period, allowing viewers to feel the pain and gravity of history. On the other hand, by weaving tender family moments into the intense struggle between enemy and ally, it reveals the heroes' fearless choices of faith and conviction.
