About The Night Rain South Township
Young man CHEN Yu returns to his hometown after a long absence. While wandering in the Daba Mountains with a close friend, Yu meets a girl whose father has gone lost, an aunt with vague memory and a stubborn elderly man. They talk about the changes among people from their hometown; someone has gone missing, some have returned with scars and some are about to escape. At the same time, the legend of a wizard named Duangong is fulfilled on Yu from time to time. Things move freely between dream and reality, and the noisy telephone occasionally pulls him out of his dream.
Directed by Li Binbin, The Night Rain South Township leans on a strong ensemble — Yuan Jiahuan, Chen Xuanyu, 李世才 — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2025.
