The good interaction between the 1982-born star (Kim Min Hee) and her 9x junior helps the "hot scenes" have emotions. Their acting contributes to the success of the work.

In early May, the lead pair were welcomed at the Cannes Film Festival while the film received positive reviews. In early June, the film became a box office phenomenon when it was released in its home country of South Korea. This is a fierce story depicting the struggle for women's rights in the early 20th century.

In 2006, Li Xiaoran played the lover of French actress Mylène Jampanoï in the film The Chinese Botanist's Daughters by Chinese-French director Dai Sijie. The couple had many Asian-themed bathing scenes.

The plot follows Li Ming, an orphan girl who comes to study medicine at the home of a famous botanist, and An, the daughter of this tyrannical professor. The director was inspired to make the film by a news item he read in a Chinese newspaper, which wrote about two lesbian women who were sentenced to death for allegedly killing one of their fathers. Critics praised the film as a beautiful love story with a tragic tinge.
