Local volunteer Yehung assisted the rescue team throughout their mission. It wasn’t until the team unearthed a note that read, "Hung, live on. I love you," and rescued his wife from the rubble, that they realized his wife and two children had been buried beneath the same debris. While trapped, the mother used a shard of broken tile to cut her wrist and feed her younger son with her blood, desperately trying to keep him alive.
Yehung’s resilience and selflessness, along with the greatness of maternal love, deeply moved the rescuers. Love connects us all—between people, and between nations. Through this life-and-death rescue, the documentary reflects the deep interconnection of human destinies and powerfully conveys the eternal theme: "Life above all, humanitarianism without borders."
The Asian Century is a social and cultural documentary series centered on the theme of building an Asian community with a shared future. Through authentic, multidimensional, and comprehensive storytelling, it showcases the shared historical roots, cultural bonds, and developmental aspirations of Asian nations.
