Abstract

This paper's research background is the new mainstream film and television drama "The Flowers Blooming," which has achieved significant artistic, market, and educational achievements. It is currently the best work of its kind with a theme of home-country isomorphism. In order to gain a deeper understanding of the construction of homeland consciousness in "The Flowers Blooming", this study uses the case study method to sort out the main content of "The Flowers Blooming" and discusses the artistic tension of the work in the construction of homeland consciousness. The research presents an important case that highlights the significance of sorting through the artistic presentation of new mainstream film and television dramas, particularly in terms of homeland consciousness construction, which in turn underscores the fundamental effects of these new media forms.
