About Me

My name is Irwen Wong and I am based in Sydney, Australia. I have been a big fan of the ​Journey to the West story for many years and have taken on reading the full novel in both the original Chinese text and Anthony C. Yu's English translation (2012). Over the years, I have worked on studying and researching deeper into the context within and behind the ​Journey to the West novel. The idea of creating this blog to archive all my studies came to mind one day, which I now dedicate my spare time to develop. Journey to the West is a Chinese tale, and is therefore not too popular in the western world. I hope to be able to spread awareness and love of this Chinese epic, as well as to share knowledge with fellow fans.

​This website serves as a community platform for Journey to the West, as introduced in the Home page. More articles will be published as time passes. My Instagram page, Facebook page and Twitter profiles all act as a news feed about articles on this blog; please follow them for updates.
