Journey to the West
*Journey to the West* is a Hong Kong television series adapted from the classical novel of the same name. Starring Dicky Cheung, Kwong Wah, Wayne Lai, and Evergreen Mak, the series was produced by TVB and first aired on TVB Jade in Hong Kong in November 1996. A sequel, *Journey to the West II*, was broadcast in 1998, but the role of the Monkey King was played by Benny Chan instead of Dicky Cheung, due to contract issues between Cheung and TVB. Cheung later reprised the role in another television series, *The Monkey King: Quest for the Sutra*, which was broadcast on TVB but not produced by the station.

Every stage matters — pitch decks and treatments from development, location scouts and table-reads from pre-production, set photos and crew anecdotes from production, edit-bay notes from post, and press kits, festival memories, or marketing ephemera from distribution. Any moment that didn't make the press tour, any document or photograph that's been sitting in a box — please share it so it's not lost to time.
We particularly welcome contributions from writers, producers, cast, crew, festival programmers, distributors, marketing teams, their families, and anyone who was there at any stage.
