What's up, AO Fam? Today's episode focuses on the erhu, also known yiwu in Cantonese. It is an ancient Chinese instrument with two strings and a bow. The story follows a young boy who becomes captivated by the instrument.  This story was written by Samuel Atkin, Alison Cheung, and Jasmine Ku. Although creating this story was difficult because of the COVID-19 pandemic, it didn't stop us! I hope you enjoy the story, and stay safe!
