''A Touch of Green'' won 6 awards at the [[2016 Golden Bell Awards]], including [[Golden Bell Award for Best Television Series|Best TV Series]], [[Golden Bell Award for Best Director in a Television Series|Best Directing]] (Tsao Jui-yuan), and [[Golden Bell Award for Best Actor|Best Actor]] ([[Wu Kang-jen]]).
== Plot== The story takes place from 1945 to 1981, after the [[Japanese surrender]] from World War II and the [[Chinese Civil War]]. The story focuses on three women, from their days as schoolgirls to their marriages as wives of [[Republic of China Air Force]] pilots. They follow their husbands from [[Nanking]] to Taiwan in 1949 after the retreat of the [[Government of the Republic of China]] (ROC) and [[Kuomintang]] (KMT). The story emphasizes the daily lives of the families who stayed at the [[military dependents' village]], experiencing the pain of leaving their home and separations from friends/family. Their shared experience brings the military families together in support of one another. Through their love and bond, they survive hardships. The resulting story is motivational and touching.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://forums.soompi.com/en/topic/348011-current-taiwanese-drama-2015-2016-a-touch-of-green-%E4%B8%80%E6%8A%8A%E9%9D%92/ |title=Current Taiwanese Drama 2015-2016 A Touch Of Green 一把青 |access-date=2021-03-26 |archive-date=2016-08-25 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160825193831/http://forums.soompi.com/en/topic/348011-current-taiwanese-drama-2015-2016-a-touch-of-green-%E4%B8%80%E6%8A%8A%E9%9D%92/ |url-status=dead }}</ref>
