During the journey, He faced the challenge of balancing the needs of both guests and team members.

"Although Liu and Meng are older, they have a youthful spirit and are open to trying things that appeal to younger people," He says. "Liu was patient, repeatedly explaining Xuan Zang's story to us."

Before the trip, He's understanding of Xuan Zang was limited to Journey to the West and history books. By the end of the trip, he had gained a deep respect for Xuan Zang's perseverance.

"His journey was tough and required an immense belief to succeed. Seeing his achievements reminded me that hard work truly leads to reward," He reflects.

According to Wang Xin, producer of Juren Media, which produced the show, the idea for this travel variety show emerged from a gap he observed in the genre.

"Most travel programs focus on showcasing scenery, sampling food or playing games in different locations, but few truly blend travel with local culture and human stories," Wang says.

"A good travel show allows viewers to feel the joy of exploration, discover local customs, and, through the guests' interactions, find inspiration, motivation and even a little healing for life's everyday struggles," he says.
