The price of happiness

However, faced with life's difficulties, conflicts, and challenges, they choose to handle them in unexpected ways.

It might seem that fame and fortune can build happiness, but then they all become burdens, suffocating and trapping those who were "born with a silver spoon in their mouths." The project's message is: "The price of happiness is always paid with pain. In family life, empathy between members is the most important thing."
