With a mix of emotions, netizens on Weibo shared their last thoughts about the show, which has been a significant source of comfort and joy for many during challenging times.

The latest episode, which aired on New Year's Day, wrapped up the show's "Silk Road" season, a journey that saw the remaining members – Dilraba, Xin Zhi Lei, Qin Hailu, Qin Lan, Zhao Zhigang, Zhou Meilek, Wang Anyu, and Hu Xieru – travel through ancient cities, facing challenges and reflecting on their personal growth.

I'll surely miss this wonderful journey," expressing the sentiment shared by many viewers who have watched the show grow and evolve over the years.

Dilraba Dilmurat, who made a guest appearance on the show, garnered much love and admiration from fans and contestants alike. User @演员胡先煦 tweeted, "Dilraba's last words for the 'Flower and Youth' team were heartwarming and sincere. As a more experienced person, she offered her blessings but didn't force anything.
