Synopsis:

Years after a mysterious societal restructuring, life in the rebuilt countryside is far from idyllic. The narrative follows a young woman named Hana as she navigates the complexities of this new world. While communities strive for self-sufficiency and connection to tradition, lingering questions about the past and the true nature of the changes continue to surface. Hana's journey intertwines with others who grapple with belonging, legacy, and the delicate balance between progress and preservation. The series explores themes of community building, historical interpretation, and individual identity within a landscape shaped by both hope and uncertainty. Expect a contemplative atmosphere, focusing on character development and the subtle dynamics of rural life rather than high-stakes conflict.
