Filmed in Lijiang in December, the actors were "drown in the water" in a vicious environment, dealing with a rugged terrain, depressing weather, and the infamous mountain sickness. On the bright side, the director said that thanks to being through all these dangerous scenarios together the characters emanate pure affection to each other.
