Travesía a Tu Corazón (2023)

GOOD LOOKING CASTS

Only 4 episodes that I watch his drama, not so much opinion but I notice few things that make this drama stand out. All the cast are so good looking, easy on the eyes. Esther Yu looks like her real age, could see clearly Zhang LingHi was a much younger man. Only the oldest JieJie that's light (although she's suck in dancing), setting and costumes are beautiful, too much dialogue exchange without story progress: dramatic monologue. No much entertainment..

1. Background music / Ambient
Over dramatized background music. Simple scene accompanied with music that focus to create a certain atmosphere or state of mind, a dark edgy one, intended as cinematic thriller background. Everybody talk alot; scheming, explaining, threat, smirking, intimidation, all done in talking. Appeared there's none of happiness or cheerful on the scenes.
2. Denigrated Women
Survival fight on the mud (ep2), selecting a bride from 10 women and when they don't get selected they'd be killed - women tried to win favors from the male counterparts - to be the bride of Gong family she needs to be in perfect health like weekly health check up or something; felt like worst selection of a Queen (oh...but whatever). Hmmm...not a great,

A STUPID ENDING

I think it will be the second season, so they sent the wufang girls out and heralded a new adventure. The Swordsman is also waiting for the woman he loves. It didn't happen.
In general, the series was very well constructed, well blended, the story was tried to be reflected properly, and it was one of the series with a different narrative that I have watched recently. I think it depends on the director. I got some American influences. Different things were tried, especially places, clothes, styles, lifestyles, secrecy, intelligence, swordplay, advanced techniques and mystery were included and a blend was made. It looked nice to me. Congratulations to the director. However, there were also mistakes that I don't know whether to call small or big. Especially when Wufeng was introduced, his ruthlessness, his ability to train invincible swordsmen or fighters, and his ruthlessness were mentioned. The way they use people is given in a very strange way, such as cruelty, using poison, being given an antidote if you complete your mission. Likewise, the Gong family, known for its closedness, secrecy, infiltration, security measures, swordsmanship, and Yellow and Gold Guards, was introduced as an uncompromising group. However, we saw that it was very easily infiltrated. Games were played knowingly and unknowingly. Likewise, with a little trick, Wufeng was tricked and the sword masters and fighters they praised so much were killed. Likewise, a great swordsman was created from an irresponsible child. The person suddenly became perfect. His mind became clear. He mastered all sword games and martial arts and became invincible. He became resistant to poisons. Finally, our daughter, the Wufeng spy who stole the endless heat, left home saying she was pregnant. Escaped. This person did not love the person he married. But we saw that he suddenly grew white flowers and watered them. ShangJue, who kept his distance from that woman, also started to like her. Now we will see in the future that this woman will do new things and cause trouble for the GONG family. Unexpected behavior from the highly praised Shangjue. Unexpected belief, deceived. I don't know if he will have children. But I think they will start the new season by playing tricks on WeiShan or taking him hostage. These were mistakes that should not have happened. I liked the actors very much. I didn't find any faults with the game. I even congratulate the players. The only thing I find faulty is that Yu Shu Xin plays with the same face for 24 episodes. If there is a sequel, he will play. Dead eyes. Eyebrows curved to give a sad facial expression. This face has never changed in good times, bad times, excitement, anger, fight, love or practice. The director said that this face of yours should be like this, spiritually. It remained that way. Is this how normal is? I don't know if he's not smiling or if he doesn't have any other behavior. I also watched a little of another series. It didn't seem that bad to me, but I couldn't figure it out here. I wondered if she was chosen for this role because of her cleavage, that is, her physique. However, Lu Yu Xiao, the actor in the same situation, on the contrary, gave all the facial expressions. She laughed, got angry, rejoiced, pretended to be in love. I love games played. His face changed, why didn't this one change, director? I didn't like these. I liked Zhang Ling He very much. It seemed to me that he grew up with his role. Well done. Ryang Cheng, Jolin Jin, the ridiculous personality who makes us laugh with different variations, Tian Jia Jin the Poisoner, Omid, Ai Mi. They were the players I liked. I liked them all, but these a little more. Let me say this for Ai Mi. It makes you think this girl can't be at this age. I've watched a few more TV series. Near perfect acting. A simple and pure and very beautiful face. Beautiful smile, beautiful look, very good facial expressions. He did his stubbornness especially well. I saw a very bright future. Hopefully the future will be clear. I think she will be a sought-after actress. He has already become one of my favorite actors. I congratulate him. Enjoy watching...

A Mixture of Darkness and Comedy

This drama gives the vibe of a suspense drama yet manage to mix it with a light comedy through the role of the Eldest Sister. At first she looked familiar but I couldn't pinpoint where I saw her before until Ep.5. She was one of the guest in Keep Running. Oh my goshhhh, no wonder...LOL.
I have tried to watch Esther Yu's works but it failed to keep me completing the dramas as most of her roles were not my cup of tea. Sometimes I think she only managed to play the role of bubbly-pretty, and somehow less wise girl. But, this time she captivates me through her roles and I think I portrays it pretty well.
Zhang Ling He, well, my first time watching his work and I think I will put him on my watch list. His role is in this drama induces women's protective nature. A nice and honest guy with strengths and vulnerabilities.

One of the show's highlights is the exceptional performance by Tian Jia Rui, who portrays Gong Yuan Zhi. His portrayal of the Support Role is remarkable, capturing the essence of his character with depth and nuance. Tian Jia Rui's dedication to his role is evident, and he manages to steal the spotlight whenever he's on screen.

Jolin Jin's portrayal of Gong Zi Shang, Zi Yu's elder sister, adds an extra layer of fun and entertainment to "Journey to You." Her character is like a burst of zesty lime on a plate of pasta, accentuating every flavor and making every scene she's in even more delightful. In the grand tapestry of the series, Gong Zi Shang is truly the cherry on top of the icing cake.

While Lester Lin is finally shown in a different light showcasing his back-breaking stunts, I just had to scream when Joseph Zeng was revealed as an Adult Young Master Xue Tong Zi.

Kudos to the screenwriters for crafting a well-thought-out narrative. The story is intricate and engaging, with every scene serving a purpose in advancing the plot or developing the characters. The attention to detail in world-building and character development is praiseworthy.

However, "Journey to You" is not without its flaws. Some viewers might find Episode 23 to be overly long, with an extended monologue that may border on tedious.

Anticipation is building for Season 2, and there are speculations that it will introduce new characters and explore intriguing chapters. The possibilities include the relationship between Dianzhu, Zhuo Mei, and an unnamed lover, the origins of the blood feud between Gong and Wufeng, the enigmatic "Infinite Heat" and the theme of betrayal, and the question of whether the Gong Clan is truly righteous. Additionally, the series could delve into the complexities Front hill clans vs Back hill clans. Wufeng is most definitely is associated with Gong back hill clans as a big give away.

In conclusion, "Journey to You" is a gripping Chinese series that excels in action, storytelling, and character portrayal. While it may have a minor pacing issue in one episode, its overall quality more than compensates for this. As we eagerly await Season 2, it's clear that "Journey to You" has left a lasting impression and is bound to be a must-watch for martial arts and fantasy enthusiasts.

Dropped, tried my best!

First of all this is my OWN opinion. Feel free to don't agree with it. I just write my own experience down if you don't agree with it then please scroll down and don't read it.

I started watching this because I saw it had a good rating and I love fantasy, hidden identity, romance and action too. So I gave it a try. It's actually started intresting, with it's own dark, gloomy set. Since I haven't seen much episodes I can't really tell further. The two main leads meeting was quite intresting in the prison but I didn't mind it first. But when she actually tried to escape to lure him or idk what to was a bit stupid for me. I didn't much further since I got annoyed and dropped it without regrets.

I know a lot of people like this drama, because it's own beauty but I specialy didn't liked the dark theme. I especially like Esther dramas but I didn't liked this one.
