The Bond

Thirty years ago, Qiao Zu Wang and his wife welcomed their fifth child into the world. But what should have been a time of rejoicing soon turned into a period of overwhelming grief as Zu Wang’s wife slipped quietly from this world. Now left to raise his five children alone, Zu Wang’s true colors were revealed. Selfish and unfeeling, Zu Wang turned all of his focus inward, leaving his children to fend for themselves. Realizing his father would never be the man he ought to be, the eldest son, Yi Cheng, voluntarily stepped into the role of caretaker. Fully aware of the fact that they were now on their own, the younger Qiao siblings, Er Qiang, San Li, Si Mei, and Qi Qi, came alongside their big brother, willing to do whatever was necessary to keep their family together. Despite overwhelming odds, the Qiao siblings not only survived but thrived. Now, more than three decades later, the Qiao siblings are living their own lives, each doing their best to make their personal dreams a reality. Even though they have taken different paths, the bonds they formed during their childhood remain strong, as they continue to support each other through the endless challenges of life. Adapted from the novel of the same name by Wei Xi, "The Bond" is a 2021 family drama directed by Zhang Kai Zhou.
