"Whatever happens," "The children are still young," "He's already gone," "Someone you used to love," "It's the new year," are catchphrases used so casually in day-to-day interactions that represent how the Chinese people have become accustomed to unconditionally compromise and give way in the face of problems. There are always endless problems in life - there's danger when you stray into the tiger’s den, parents who neglect their duties and find the children troublesome, people who smoke in the elevators without a care for others, those who fail in love, fail in business and go bankrupt, couples who experience a marriage crisis and families that fall apart... When life hits difficulties, is the "come what may" attitude a solution or is it the catalyst to a bigger predicament? An all-star lineup interprets the most realistic story and explores the philosophy of facing life with a smile. (Source: ChineseDrama.info)
