Have you ever read a book or watched a movie from someone's POV or narration, but the main character or focus is actually someone else...like in The Great Gatsby? My Journey to You is almost like that. Is this intentional by Guo Jing Ming? Or...is it as he directs and edits the drama, he discovers he likes certain aspects more and delete sources from initially intended materials?

Wow, another great episode!! I was starting to suspect the new elder in the beginning of ep 14, and by the end of the episode, I was shocked!

A member in here mentioned the chinese characters used for chi, mei, wang, liang are all written with a "ghost" character. I interpret "ghost" as alluding to darkness, hidden, evil, bad-force, spy. In Cantonese, there's a slang term for spy/undercover person as "internal ghost." I only know Chi and Mei stand for Beauty which makes sense in referencing the 2 FL's, but also that beautiful women are sometimes cunning and evil. The writer is really creative in picking these words.

No, the later episodes have a lot of talking. If you skip them, you also end up missing out on a lot of details/info. But I enjoy this drama a lot.

I can't wait to find out what excuse she's going to use to explain the droplet of ....

I'm also not particularly rooting for any couples. As a matter of fact, who did it and why are also not that important to me for this drama. Strangely, I'm here only for the creativity, visual aesthetics, cinematography, sound effects, and storytelling execution. Only one other Cdrama had I enjoyed it this way.

I think so.

Cheng Yi is one of my top, top, TOOOPPP favorites. He doesn't have to say anything and plays a mute, and I would still rank him up there for me.🤪

Good to know! A lot of word play a la homonym in this drama. It's rather fitting given the spy theme drama. I really like Mr. Guo's creativity and thoughtfulness in his work. I hope he's providing great explanations in the end instead of having questions unanswered and gaping holes unpatched.

good for you. =)

I wasn't a fan of Gong Yuan Zhi, but after finishing ep 13, I don't really dislike him that much. More like an annoyance, but he's not so bad. He does care a lot for GSJ.

Yah, the director got us good with the physicians kneeling.

I like Zhang Ling He's voice; or maybe it's the way he speaks, although I have no clue what he says 99% of the time. So it couldn't be the accent.

1st couple = happy
2nd couple = sad

but i'm hoping all couples would be happy, including 3rd couple.

I know. Everything about her is just tooo funny!

I still have to finish The Legend of Zhuohua.

Wow, Zi Yi is a big shot. Even Han Ya Si had to follow her order. Guess she's the highest level of the 4 tiers.

What a great episode! 13 is intense!

That was epic!
