Embrace again - Embrace Again

Zhu Yilong portraited the role fully and effectively, paying attention to small details, for example, the different tune when talking to children students, and the eye squinting when removing his thick glasses.

A series of interconnected stories, set against the backdrop of the early days of the pandemic.

The movie was set during the lock down time of Wuhan, from late January till March of 2020, focusing on the lives of ordinary people - how they started with fear and anxiety, but gradually built up strength, hope and faith to overcome the darkest time.

The most romantic line was the story of Xie Yongqin, a retired OB GYN physician and her boyfriend Pei Ye, a big shot chief of Cantonese cuisine.

Very different in background, personality and education, they were both alone but not lonely, with loving hearts and positive attitudes.

The chemistry was intense but fine-tuned, from how they supported each other to fight with the virus disaster, to how the romance expressed stronger and stronger in their eyes.
