Local Heroes or Village Idiots?

2024 · 2 seasons

A cheerful, low-stakes cultural exchange where city outsiders bumble through rural traditions, leaving you with gentle laughs and a warm sense of community.

Overview
As a team, Honduras, WEN Chen-ling, SHIH Ming-shuai, and KAO Ying-hsuan arrive to stay in the longevity village of Shitan in Miaoli for one month. Their primary mission is to restore Hakka culture. Each of the four members has their own talents. In the Hakka village, can they successfully complete the missions given by the villagers, or will they end up being the village idiots and making fools of themselves? In the Hakka language, “Kiang” can mean “excellent” or “zany.” Will the team be excellent or zany? Can they successfully bring vitality to the longevity village?
