In 1945, anti-Japanese soldier Lin Yuanshan fell off a cliff during a mission and was accidentally cryogenically frozen. Waking up in 2025 with his military medal and his wife's embroidered handkerchief, he trekked thousands of miles to find his family—only to be called 'the great-grandpa no one has ever seen' by his great-grandson Lin Xiaochuan. The family was preparing a 100th birthday banquet for Lin Xiaochuan's grandfather, and no one believed this '50-year-old-looking man' had been missing for 70 years. Until he pulled out his wedding photo, an old silver bracelet engraved with 'Yuanshan', and a yellowed family letter—then the truth hit them. Facing smartphones, elevators, and the 'live-streamed birthday banquet' of modern life, Lin Yuanshan was both clumsy and stubborn: he wanted to burn a belated incense for his wife, help his great-grandson retrieve lost 'old traditions', and most of all, say the 'I'm back' he couldn't 70 years ago... When cross-century longing meets the bustle of the new era, this story of 'the great-grandpa's return' hides the most touching regrets and warmth.
