Features: This "Facing the Sea" permeates the thoughts and spirit of Hai Zi. In a seemingly effortless state, it narrates a life of simple, down-to-earth, and tranquil existence—a tiny ripple of ordinary life, like an ant gnawing at your heart, itchy, painful, harmless yet stirring a desire to transform into a spiritual and physical longing. Yet even so, the desire remains gentle, without life-or-death struggles or fierce bites. The small joys and sorrows among ordinary people connect to the solemn side of life, gradually diffusing into a sense of anxiety in a slightly humorous and melancholic atmosphere.
