Nine days after her wedding, Yang Mi will time travel back to 2004.
Three years after Yang Mi and Feng Shaofeng won over shipper hearts with Palace (宫锁心玉), they will reunite, this time on the silver screen. Slated to open in theaters on January 17th, Snow Blossom (大寒桃花开) was actually filmed in 2004, making it FengMi’s first collaboration.
FengMi fans have been crushed since newlyweds Yang Mi and Hawick Lau first went public with their relationship in 2012. Desperate for more of their OTP, many fans uncovered the existence of Snow Blossom, which hadn’t been screened to air due to too much depiction of bloodshed and mutilation.
Ten years after its initial filming period, and 1.5 years after Yang Mi and Feng Shaofeng reunited for Painted Skin: The Resurrection (画皮2), Snow Blossom has finally received the okay to air in cinemas. Feng Shaofeng will play Da Han (Great Cold), a skilled swordsman who mistakenly goes down the wrong road and becomes a hit man. During one assassination attempt, he meets Tao Hua (Peach Blossom), portrayed by Yang Mi, a clever and studious young lady who is hoping to win the competition to become the daughter-in-law of a well-known government official.
