IMO - another flop idol costume drama. Please no more stupid plot.
The Journey of Legend is yet another idol historical costume drama that falls short in its delivery.
I watched about eight episodes, but I can no longer find the motivation to continue with it. The fighting scenes were good, but also had over-the-top choreography that came across as unrealistic.
The plot is so dull and draggy that I do not find it engaging, let alone waste my time watching 40 episodes of it.
Synopsis: Once a spirited young man full of passion and justice, Xiao Ming Ming has grown disillusioned with reality and now lives a timid, unremarkable life, finding solace in writing martial arts novels online. When his company develops an immersive AI-based writing system that projects users into their own stories, he inputs a martial arts outline and becomes the protagonist, Xiao Qiu Shui. Within this virtual world, Xiao Qiu Shui faces betrayal, loss, and endless trials — from the deadly schemes of the Power Sect to the death of his sworn brother Tang Rou and the fall of his family. Through hardship and bloodshed, the once-fearful swordsman grows into a true hero upholding loyalty and righteousness, while Xiao Ming Ming’s fading heartbeat blurs the line between fiction and reality.
