Two Roads is Tian Han's masterpiece in the 1940s. Written in February of 1947, the play is a historical turning point from the dark old China to the bright new China. The party and people in the liberated areas rose up against the civil war provoked by Chiang Kai-shek, and the people's movements in the Kuomintang-controlled areas surged like a raging storm. The slogan of "anti-hunger, anti-civil war and anti-persecution" resounded through the sky. In order to meet the needs of revolutionary struggle, Tian Han wrote two songs for Road with enthusiasm.
