However, Shi Xiaoyu never imagined she would ever cross paths with her idol. One day, however, the severely anorexic Jing Jiayuan happened to pass by her eatery. He tasted Shi Xiaoyu’s cooking and left four words: “Regret meeting too late,” Then, he passed away. Reborn, Shi Xiaoyu found herself in the body of Shi Xiaoyu, a struggling actress. To her surprise, she realized she had traveled back to the time when her idol, Jing Jiayuan, was just starting his career. She had become a female star in the same era as Jing Jiayuan. Moreover, her agency had secured her a spot on a travel reality show. The guests on the show included none other than Jing Jiayuan! Agent: “This show thrives on drama, and with your fighting spirit, it should make you famous.” Show Producer: “To make things interesting, we’ll only give each of you fifty euros a day for all expenses, including food, clothing, transportation, and sightseeing.” Fans: “Stay out of Jiayuan’s spotlight! Just follow along quietly and don’t try to stand out.” Jing Jiayuan: “I’m not picky, I just don’t like eating bad food.” After some time filming the show— Agent: “Shi Xiaoyu, how come I never knew you could cook like this? Shocked.jpg” Show Producer: “How are they eating so well on just fifty euros a day? What if all the guests gain weight?

My Thoughts on The Days of Traveling with My Idol
"The Days of Traveling with My Idol" promised a heartwarming escape into the world of showbiz, and while it delivered on some fronts, it also left me wanting more in others. The premise – a journey with an idol – is inherently appealing, but the execution felt a bit uneven at times.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the promise of a lighthearted romance set against the backdrop of the Chinese entertainment industry. The idea of a road trip added an extra layer of intrigue, and I was eager to see how the characters would develop as they navigated unfamiliar territories. I'm always on the lookout for a story that can balance fluff with genuine emotional depth, and I hoped this would be it.
What Works Well
The novel shines in its portrayal of minor characters. They aren't just background filler; they're vibrant personalities that add depth and richness to the story. The journey itself acts as a catalyst for growth, not just for the main characters, but also for those who cross their path. It's refreshing to see a story that emphasizes the importance of diverse perspectives and cultural exchange. The narrative has a certain charm, and I found myself appreciating the overall message of embracing the wider world rather than retreating into the sometimes-insular world of entertainment. The focus on character development through exposure to different cultures is a definite strength.
Areas of Concern
While the heartwarming aspect is definitely present, the romance and showbiz elements felt somewhat subdued compared to what I expected. I was hoping for a deeper dive into the entertainment industry and a more intense romantic connection, but these aspects seemed to take a backseat to the road trip and personal growth.
Final Verdict
"The Days of Traveling with My Idol" is a charming and heartwarming story with a strong focus on character development and cultural exchange. While the romance and showbiz elements might not be as prominent as some readers might expect, the novel's strengths lie in its memorable minor characters and its message of embracing the wider world. It's a pleasant read, especially if you're looking for something that prioritizes personal growth over intense romance.
