I genuinely loved this! In the end, he achieved what he wanted, yet the overwhelming bleakness felt perfectly in tune with the story’s tone. How could someone endure and go through so much and remain unfazed? Park Hyung Sik's portrayal was top-notch!

Park Min Jae actor is not listed on MDL, I wanna know his name 😭

I'm on episode 20 and I need someone to enlighten me: who's Shao Liulei or whatever his name is? I obviously missed some crucial part while watching, because the whole plotline concerning him came out of nowhere. I'm so confused 😩

Would you say it's good/worth watching? I'm hesitant to watch it because the rating is not that good, but he looks amazing in those stills!

I'm watching The Journey of Legend and I noticed his pretty face (👀), but then I did a double-take when I realized he's the same actor who played Ying Lei. His face did look somewhat familiar, but holy f***, the vibes are completely different! He's rocking both roles.

It's the same actor, why would you think it's BL 🥴

They use the same posters the official streaming sites in mainland China use. A lot of time those posters are ugly af.

MDL's new poster policy is atrocious.

Oh, this was a good one! It took me ages to finish, mainly because I saw some spoilers and lost my motivation to continue. I picked it up again later, and I'm so glad I did. I loved all the characters; the FL was actually badass and likable, and the romance was nicely done. I also have to say the little princess/prince (He Lan Dou) really shined in that role, she's one of the rare actresses who could genuinely pass as a boy, and her acting was amazing.

Also, if they want to regulate something they should regulate 'pictures' section because people tend to upload so much nonsense (and duplicates) in there, that normal/official pictures get flooded and you can't find anything.

Anyway, I'm just ranting at this point. Sorry. 🤣

I may look for that link to see the reason because this makes no sense whatsoever. I hate it. 😒
Thanks for replying tho.

Who keeps posting these ugly posters on MDL when there are so many better choices?! 😭
As someone who picks what to watch partially based on the poster design this is driving me crazy.

Zhi Dai and Tang Hua had a thing but it never developed into a real relationship. I would still call them secondary couple, though.

Sorry for the late reply. 😬

So many good posters and MDL always uses the most boring ones. 😆

I liked it. The relationship between the leads was beautifully developed and I love how they gradually moved from distrust to genuine love and affection; it felt so natural. It’s not the kind of drama that keeps you on the edge of your seat, but it’s still very good. I didn’t skip or fast-forward any part, though it did take me quite a while to finish. 9/10

It was… I dunno. I liked the batshit crazy characters, but the plot didn’t end up being all that interesting. CDH’s motivation and his plan to 'help' JSO just seemed ??? I don’t know, it didn’t make any sense to me.

Her losing one person she cares about in the OR won’t suddenly turn her into an empathetic, good doctor. And aside from that, I don’t really see the point of that 'lesson.' Is she supposed to realize she’s not perfect? He already thinks she is. And how would losing her confidence help her? For something that’s meant to be the central point of the drama, it felt very flawed.

Still, loved the weird relationship they had. The acting was also great!

7.5/10

The "fantasy" genre is there because the original story involves time travel. However, the drama doesn't focus much on that aspect, and it's only implied, especially toward the end. Still, one of the characters does end up traveling back to the past.

I think it was on dramacool, the site still worked for me despite being shut down(?)

Also, when I first started watching, I was so pleasantly surprised that it focused on the siblings and their relationship and not on romance. I was fully convinced he was her little brother, and I refused to believe otherwise. The clown I ended up being, LOL.

I'm sorry, but you just can't make a good historical drama with so few episodes. The acting? A solid 10. Cinematography? 10. Music? 10. The fight scenes and choreography? Also a 10. But the story? That's where it falls apart. I don’t even know how to explain it, but it feels like it’s on fast-forward. Characters suddenly know things they shouldn’t, or meet people they realistically shouldn’t have access to. Events just keep happening with no proper buildup or introduction. Some plot points feel really incomplete.

That said, I do really like the core concept. It’s genuinely interesting. The whole storyline involving the painter and the ML’s trauma is right up my alley. I just wish they had more time and space to properly develop the story.
