Characters such as Kuroko and Xiaohui also appeared in "Where the Dream Begins", which was played by Fu Biao and Tao Hong respectively.

Forcing the "Beijing master" is deliberate

In the play, Xiao Chunsheng, played by Xiao Zhan, is defined as a "Beijing master" who grew up in Beijing. After the TV series was broadcast, some netizens hotly discussed Xiao Zhan's abrupt lines, thinking that his pronunciation was not like a Beijing local, like an outsider.

More important than the pronunciation is the new-generation young student like Xiao Zhan, who cannot play the rawness and roughness of the so-called "Beijing master", and deliberately sets up the "stubborn master" character of the brothers with a knife in both ribs.
