From 1988 to 2000, Taiwan released six Yes, Sir. films about the experiences of army recruits. The classic movie series returns in 2016 with its seventh installment and a new batch of greenhorns to whip into shape, including Lollipop F's William Liao as a free-spirited rookie who thinks army service is a waste of time and Peijia Huang (Ni zhuan sheng (2014)) as a hard-headed female soldier determined to prove herself. Chunya Chao, who shot to fame through the army-themed TV series Rookies' Diary, plays a team captain again, while series stalwart Tsung-Hua Tou returns as an army commander. Set in 2009, Yes, Sir. 7 references the Typhoon Morakot disaster when thousands of soldiers were deployed in relief operations.
