Plot

[edit]

Three couples in love arrive in Yunnan to tour Shibo Yuan and meet the tour guide Liu Hai. The tour guide forms her own opinions of the couples and, over the course of giving a tour of Shibo Yuan, acts as an intermediary many times and helps them settle their disputes but also stirs up trouble.

The red couple

[edit]

The first couple arriving for the tour are Mark and his wife Chui from Hong Kong. The childhood friends have been married for seven years and want to travel the road together for the latter half of their lives. Due to the market crash the year before, both are busy all day and their feelings for each other are starting to diminish.

The white couple

[edit]

The second couple arriving for the tour are from Shanghai. Xu Jing and Bai Sheng just got married and are on their honeymoon. Bai Sheng is a workaholic, unknowingly neglecting Xu Jing. Xu Jing gave herself a pregnancy test at the clinic where she works and found out that she is expecting, causing her worry because Bai Sheng doesn't want to become a father yet.

The blue couple

[edit]

The third couple traveling are from South Korea. Jino and his girlfriend BoBo are a young couple who have been dating for only about six months. Jino is romantic while BoBo is vain but in tune with reality.
