Yun zhi yu

MY Journey to you is an enthralling TV series that weaves an intricate tale of desire for freedom, love, and self-discovery. This series effortlessly blends action-packed sequences with heartwarming moments of love and friendship. What I truly appreciate is how it manages to balance the intensity of the assassin's life with the tender aspects of Yun WeiShan's experiences.

Esther Yu's performance as Yun WeiShan is nothing short of remarkable. She flawlessly portrays the character's inner conflicts and complexities, making her journey incredibly captivating and relatable.

The on-screen chemistry between Yun WeiShan and the rebellious Gong ZiYu is electric. Their relationship unfolds in a way that keeps you hooked, and their moments of connection are simply heartwarming.

I liked the series as a whole even if the ending is unsatisfying. I loved the setup and world building, I thought the acting of most actors was decent and I loved the story. This is why I gave it a seven.

I gave it only a seven because I had a problem with the actress playing the sister. What was the purpose of the older sister's role anyway except as a comic relief? Even as a joke she was truly terrible. I'm not sure if it was the actress herself or the acting directions but the result was embarrassing and actually unnecessary.

If the whole side story of the sister was cut off through the editing, nothing whould be missing in the story. She was loud, weird and looked deranged at times.

Totally worth the watch! I am surprised how little I've never heard of this drama until I watched it.

The plot is innovative, the romance is subtle and without the standardly overused c-drama tropes; and due to the censorship in China it is, of course not physically explicit.

It has impressive acting, leads and supporting roles included. The fights scenes are well-balanced, eloquent, and entertaining. Great overall visuals and cinematography.

I do have an issue with the ending, which is too open-ended and unsatisfactory. I believe the characters and storyline deserved a better ending, and there is currently no season 2 planned or even being whispered about.

Other then that - a great piece!

Great story, and really stunning cinematography / photography, color grading team did a very good job. I am really impressed with the location scenery and wardrobe. Also the fighting scenes are absolutely amazing with excellent use of slow motion, as expected from a Chinese Action series. The actors are giving their best to an already interesting script. I like everything about this series, the twists, drama, love and betrayal, so many changes in the story and surprises. Although it's fiction, there are so many true elements, like for example the fact that the villains are a lot stronger than the heroes, but their downfall is the friction between them. Unlike the hollywood stories that the good guys are always better.

This is a remarkable original story with a superb quality production. It was spectacularly well made.

A work of art, literally. The sceneries, backgrounds customs, music, fight choreographies.... Everything about this drama speaks quality.

The script is fantastic and the dialogues are tell you just enough. This is the kind of series where you cant event trust what you see, because you never know if what you are seeing is the full picture or just part of it. The art of deception.

At some point You will think you have everything figured out and that there's holes in the plot and how the characters are so dumb to have let the villains deceived them for so long.... and them the plot twist comes!

I honestly didn't expect those turns of events at all.

The weakest part about the drama was unfortunately the main leads.

I was looking forward to finally watch Ester Yu in a drama where she wasn't just winning and talking like a 3 year old baby the whole time ( she has only dramas like that) but to my disappointment playing this character she had one expression the whole time. It was extremely monotonous to watch. You didn't feel a difference between her scenes at all. I could not perceive any emotions from her.

My favorite character was without a doubt the elder sister Zi Yu, played by Jolin Jin, what a performance, she literally lighted up the screen everytime she was on. What a personality.

And the second male lead and second female lead ( Lu Yu Xiao and Ryan Cheng) stole the show with their chemistry, gazes and interactions, it was very powerful to watch.

Many people are upset about the ending, and if we are being honest they could have continued for a few more episodes and gave us proper closure, BUT, to me what they told us in that ending is clear and makes sense, so im satisfied with it.

Amazing series, go watch this jewel.
