In the latest episode of Channel A's weekend drama "My lovely journey," Kwon Seung-yeon concluded the third proxy trip with a perfect happy ending, touching viewers' hearts.
In the 7th episode of Channel A's weekend drama "My lovely journey" (planned by Channel A, directed by Kang Sol, written by Jeong Hoe-hyun), aired on the 23rd, the heartbreaking first love story of the third proxy travel client, Cha Young-hoon (played by Ha Seok-jin), unfolded along with his shocking secret. Kang Yu-reum (played by Kwon Seung-yeon) delivered a proxy trip filled with sincerity, creating yet another miraculous story and offering a heartwarming emotional experience. Additionally, Lee Yeon-seok (played by Kim Jae-young) expressed his feelings to Yu-reum with sweet messages, and the two's blossoming romance further excited viewers.
The biggest twist from the previous broadcast was Young-hoon's secret. His identity as a patient suffering from a heart disease was revealed, shocking everyone who believed he was merely a doctor treating patients in the hospital. Young-hoon, who had connections as a junior to Oh Sang-sik (played by Yoo Jun-sang), was in a situation where he could not travel himself due to being on the brink of surgery and thus requested a proxy trip from Yu-reum. After being caught by Sang-sik, Young-hoon shared everything about his fateful connection with Haruko (played by Tomosaka Rie), whom Yu-reum had continually encountered during the trip, saying, "When the remaining days are short, only desperate things remain. The most regrettable thing, the painfully missed thing... I should have loved you a lot and loved you to death," he candidly confessed his longing, stirring up tears.
In a subsequent flashback scene, the youthful first love story of Young-hoon and Haruko was depicted. From the confession on the traditional house's porch to the time they dreamed of traveling to Europe together in a basement room, the dazzling moments of two young people who were poor but happy just to be together were captured. However, the truth behind their separation was shocking. It was revealed that Haruko vanished with all the saved travel funds they had collected for their trip. In truth, Haruko had to leave Young-hoon's side because she learned of her sister Midori's pregnancy and had no choice but to give up her love, adding to the heartache.
Having heard Young-hoon's story, Yu-reum tirelessly explored Hakodate to help facilitate the reunion between the two. In the process, she encountered Midori (played by Fujii Mina), Haruko's sister, and learned that the scene she had witnessed the previous night in the street stall, where a wallet was stolen, was a misunderstanding. Haruko did not touch someone else's wallet; she was merely taking action to prevent her sister's overspending. Finally, Yu-reum fatefully met Haruko at the last travel destination of the 10-year-old travel itinerary and conveyed the video message sent by Young-hoon before going into surgery: "Thanks to you, my twenties were radiant, and all the times spent with you were dazzlingly happy. I wanted to watch the sunrise in Hokkaido together," which moved Haruko to tears and stirred viewers' emotions.
Alongside Young-hoon and Haruko's poignant love story, the romance between Yu-reum and Yeon-seok also heated up. Yeon-seok sent a message saying, "I miss you, Yu-reum. Come back quickly," sharing that Young-hoon's surgery had gone well, causing hearts to race. Yu-reum's bright smile upon receiving that message hinted at the development of their relationship and added a thrilling excitement.
Thus, Yu-reum's third proxy journey concluded with a scene of her moving together with Haruko at the airport, hinting at Young-hoon's long-awaited reunion with his first love after 10 years and completing a miraculous happy ending. Additionally, Yu-reum's reflective narration stating, "Travel may be for going back to the place where the loved one lives," further amplified the overwhelming emotions and left a lingering impact. This broadcast beautifully intertwined the miraculous reunion with a first love that connects the past and present, along with Yu-reum and Yeon-seok's straightforward romance, captivating the viewers' attention. The anticipation for Yu-reum's next proxy travel destination and which client and story will await her, as well as how her relationship with Yeon-seok will develop, is what makes the upcoming 8th episode on the 24th even more exciting.
