A Journey to Love

一念关山 ‧ Drama ‧ 2023
They both are focus on political drama centered around the strong female lead on a mission, with really strong chemistry and some dash of comedy. The overall vibe of both drama is the same although the plot and character are a bit different.

They both have similar power couple with their unique quirkiness which make them very loveable. Although, there are kinda a SML and even a 3rd one, unlike in A journey to love where there are multiple potential couples one could ship for. (none of mine set sail T_T or reach the destination).

I am surprised no one is mentioning this gem.

In both dramas, the main couple are super powerful and only have eyes for each other throughout the whole series. They also carry the heavy burden of the whole world/empire on their shoulders.

Both dramas have a female lead, that is very skilled in fighting and also capable of tactical thinking, scheming and planning ahead.
Both dramas have a good mix of action, romance and friendship, involving many interesting characters.
Beautiful cinematography, showing many different places along a journey, including a snowy scenery, can be found in both dramas.

Both dramas revolve around main characters who embark on a perilous journey with a common goal: securing the throne. Their mission is time-bound, requiring them to overcome countless challenges and obstacles along the way. As they navigate treacherous terrain and face dangerous adversaries, they must also contend with the intricate webs of politics and deep-rooted enmity from rival factions. Each step forward reveals new hurdles, forcing them to balance strategy, wit, and strength. The journey is not just a test of endurance but a battle for power and survival, where alliances are fragile and betrayal lurks at every corner.

These are chinese historical dramas from the same director "Zhou Jing Tao". Both have interesting storylines and well-written characters.

sword snow stride has the same type of political struggles as well as type of story as a journey to love. The romance may not be strong in sword snow stride, but the story is similarly good and the plot is very much similarly paced. The actions are better in a journey to love but the acting as well as the pace is better in sword snow stride. Sword snow stride is a good storyline based drama with great acting.

If you like storyline, friendship, Journey, with a little comedy and romance on the side i would recommend The blood of youth. The similarity with A Journey to love:
-The friendship and brotherhood are hot, funny, melts your heart and definitely worth the attention as in A journey to love
-The Story involves a journey of entourage full of young men and funny build of friendship as well as fighting scenes
-Has great plotline, sets, and pacing
-The costumes are gorgeous
-Has comedy and romance on the side but not much
-Great sets and cinematography
-storywise very entertaining, struggles in politics and similarly build

Cecilia Liu plays a heroic Ming female doctor in this and it's based on a real historical character. The acting is good and it's a reverse harem drama
Recommended by eternalsummer
The female lead constantly wants to flirt with the male lead, tough, combative male characters, period drama.

The series has many different aspects. However, it also has many similar scenes.

Another Liu Shi Shi drama that showcases her versatility and talent. For those who may have not seen her other works.
