ABSTRACT

Drawing on Cheng Yuzhen’s framework of Chinese cultural characteristics, this study examines how 「The New House of 72 Tenants」 and 「Ambush on All Sides」 embody external characteristics—unity, continuity, inclusiveness, and diversity; and internal characteristics—humanistic spirit, harmony and moderation, and an attachment to homeland. 「The New House of 72 Tenants」 reflects unity through its narrative, cultural continuity through the fusion of comedy and Lingnan culture, inclusiveness through hybrid costumes and multilingual songs, and diversity through the coexistence of Confucian and Buddhist ideas. Internally, it conveys Confucian humanism and integrates martial arts aesthetics with dance sports to express moderation and cultural integration, while affirming the ethos of affection for one’s homeland. 「Ambush on All Sides」 similarly presents unity, historical continuity, inclusive costuming, and philosophical diversity, while its plot and swordplay express Confucian humanism. Its circular movement patterns, fusion of cheongsam and dance sports, and homesickness motifs further embody traditional cultural sentiments.
