In this play, the tea drinking habits of the Song Dynasty are also presented. Next, I will talk about the tea drinking habits of the Song Dynasty from a historical perspective.
The Song Dynasty was a very important period in Chinese history, which underwent political, economic, cultural and other changes. During the Song Dynasty, tea gradually became popular as a beverage and became part of social and cultural activities.
First of all, tea was widely recognized and popularized in Song Dynasty society. The Song Dynasty was an important period in the history of Chinese tea, and the planting, processing and drinking technology of tea had developed greatly. Tea began to become a consumer product and became popular among scholars, literati and scholars. The popularity of tea has also made tea drinking an important social activity.
Secondly, the Song Dynasty people had a unique sense of ritual towards tea. They pay attention to the process of tea making and the selection of tea utensils, and also pay attention to the tasting and enjoyment of tea.

The unique aroma and elegant taste of tea are also believed to be refreshing and inspiring, so tea drinking is gradually combined with art forms such as poetry, painting, calligraphy and other art forms to form a unique style of tea culture.
Finally, although the Song Dynasty people liked to drink tea, they had relatively low requirements for the type and quality of tea compared to the later Ming and Qing dynasties. The main popular in the Song Dynasty was grinding tea, that is, grinding tea leaves into powder and brewing and drinking. This method was widely used in the Song Dynasty, while ordinary people drank more stir-fried tea.
In general, the love and importance of tea in the Song Dynasty can be seen from historical documents and some literary and artistic works. They see tea drinking as a lifestyle and cultural expression to de-stress, refresh, communicate and enjoy life through tea drinking. By showing the tea culture scenes, TV series such as "Do You Know" also let the audience better understand and feel the tea drinking habits of the Song Dynasty and the cultural connotations they represent.
