It has become one of my favourite Chinese series.

One of the best Chinese series I have ever watched with a good and satisfying ending. The cast are each fantastic in their roles. The story will keep you up and want you to rewatch immediately after it ends.

I really love the main actors and actresses , anyways all cast did their job well, and of course the leading man and leading Lady Bai Lu and Zhang Leng they have a chemistry super, they are both amazing actor and actress. Hoping that there is another drama or movie for Bai Lu and Zhang.

It's an absolute treat to the eyes , the character depth and bgm , cinematography everything was top notch , the pace was exactly how it was needed and obviously their relationship will forever be iconic.

I started watching this series when it was first released, and I gave up on it after the first 20 minutes, perhaps I was too sleepy and this series gives you a lot to digest in episode one. I had almost forgotten about this series when one day I saw a few reels of it and decided to give it a try again. This time I was hooked from episode 2 onwards. This series is a complete package, super good looking people, lots of swoon worthy moments, suspense, betrayal, plots in plots, amazing costumes, and good sets. There were so many good looking people in this series that I felt I didn't even compare to the absolute extras when it came to good looks! Our lead actress had three suitors, and I wanted each one of them to be with her, one automatically felt bad for the other two whenever she got close to one of them. Most historical dramas revolve around power struggle, deceit, family dynamics and dirty politics, this series wasn't any different in this aspect, but I liked how the series was told by a modern author who got our female lead to undo the wrongdoings by giving her a fresh chance of time travelling to before everything got out of hands. It was also interesting how they kept showing the contrast and similarities between the past and new present, and gave the FL an opportunity to learn from and rectify her mistakes. Then we had the finale with the lovely leads coming together in matrimony and also the FL meeting the ML in modern times, indicating there was a chance for them in the current time as well. I liked so many things about this series, I am already a fan of Bai Lu, and apart from her latest series with Dylan Wang, I've loved her work in each of the series I have watched with her as the lead. As for the three male leads, they were all great in their respective roles and though I had already seen Zhang Lingye in Love between fairy and devil and liked his work, I wanted to see him in My Journey to You but I cannot tolerate Esther Yu in any series at all, that fact notwithstanding I still tried watching the series but left it an episode 3. I'd like to see more work of Zhang Lingye, Wang Xingyue, and Zhou Junwei as well as Liu Xiening, I loved all of them in Story of Kuning Palace.

A rewatch favorite

I love this drama and lead pair up. Perfect chemistry ...you get action, humor, mystery, romance, not overly angsty ... strong ML and strong FL. Background understandable and the story is easy to follow with a beautiful ending that is very satisfying before the last episode which is great .FL and ML are attractive. Costumes are nice and hairstyles thankfully are becoming. FL family is not overly bad to her. ML falls first and doesn't realize he's fell in love at first. FL is attracted to ML but because of past misunderstanding she fears him, also at first. Not a real love triangle so that's great.
