Also, this book discusses in the second half of the decade starting in the year 2000 appeared certain youth styles/images and promoted certain perspectives on young peoples psychological well-being. By giving Chinese youth more power of self-identification, youth films in recent decades have begun to place more responsibility on young characters to deal with their journey through adolescence. This journey offers any number of directions and route, but their destination is always to approach maturity. Timothy Shary initiated his earlier academic study on teen film. His work on gender continued in studies of youth cinema. His works inspired the author of this book to look at the development of youth genre in Chinese context, as well as to give a more precise definition of Chinese youth genre and sub-genres.
