on the evening of september 3, the tv series "snow labyrinth" was launched on youku with episode 5, officially opening the premiere mode. starring huang jingyu, zhang yu and other actors, this tv series tells the story of drug control in northeast china in the 1990s. based on the episodes that have been launched so far, this tv series wants to take a realistic route, but its ability is not good enough and the level of realism is insufficient. in the end, because of many routine narratives, the show can only wander on the edge of a cool drama, and the supervision of director zhang yimou is relatively limited.

this tv series tries to follow two typical characteristics: a typical regional background and a typical time background. therefore, it starts by telling the audience that the regional background is the northeast and the time background is the 1990s. these two "typical" characteristics appear many times in the play in a labeled and symbolic way. obviously, the playwright, director and producer of the play all know the importance of realistic writing in criminal investigation dramas.

however, respecting the two archetypes is not just about labeling and symbolizing, but requires realism on more levels. in other words, if we remove those labeling and symbolizing contents, can the play still let the audience find out where and when the story happened? if it can, then the tv series is successful. if not, then the tv series is relatively unsuccessful. using this standard, many excellent movies are highlighted, and many tv series of lower quality have also appeared.
