Synopsis: Forward Forever
A story set in a period of great turmoil at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, following two passionate young people who devote their lives to their country. Through a series of events, Ah Yi (Jackson Yi) becomes friends with Chong Li Ming (Huang Zi Tao) who is a member of the Imperial Family. He is recruited to become a member of Yan Shi Fan, an extraordinary group of guards whose sole responsibility is to defend the palace. After countless tough and challenging tests, Ah Yi establishes a deep companionship with his teammates. Chong Li Ming also teaches the importance of friendship through repeated power struggles against the foreigners, the triads and the dirt of corruption that plagues the Qing Dynasty courts. The progress of history, however, causes Ah Yi and Chong Li Ming to develop divergent ideals and their friendship begins to crumble. Huang Zi Tao and Jackson Yi play double lead roles; Huang Zi Tao plays Chong Li Ming, a leader of one of the eight Banners or elite troops of the Qing army. But his other identity is the leader of a special royal organization (murder group), Yan Shi Fan, who protects the nation. Despite the modest background of Ah Yi, he encourages the boy to participate. Ah Yi is described as beautiful, quiet and cruel, with the potential to become a killing machine. A deep friendship develops among men as they go through difficulties and challenges, realize their ideals and desire to protect their homeland, and join the revolution.
