Confronted with stringent regulations, demanding governments, and a stagnant society, people live in a condensed space, playing their role as designated in their position. They are unable to move there as if they were similar grains of rice with different forms lying in a vacuum packaging bag. In the rigid living environment where we could not communicate with each other, we make individual explorations, pondering how to escape from the stifling “rice bag” and how to face this condensed society. I gave my suggestions to these questions in The Riceland.
