Synopsis
Stranger Things
When a young boy vanishes, a small town uncovers a mystery involving secret experiments, terrifying supernatural forces, and one strange little girl.
The Long Watch
A millennium-era leak case shaping cross-strait dynamics hides a covert tug-of-war between foreign forces and Chinese agents. In the late 90s, rookie Chunxiao and star agent Ma Qi foil plots together, but as time passes, the case reshapes all involved amid era-defining shifts.
