When they were filming in Mongolia, it was inevitable for them to have some alcohol, Hu Jun discovered Charmaine had very good tolerance, even the Mongolian artist had respect for her.

Charmaine explained: \"This was my first Mainland drama after I left TVB a year and a half ago. I knew it was going to be challenging, so before filming began, I hired a teacher to help me brush up my Mandarin for two months.\" She was grateful of Hu Jun\'s care during filming, he was her Mandarin teacher and her horseback riding instructor. Director Tsui Siu Ming disclosed Charmaine accidentally sprained her waist while filming the horse riding scenes. She admitted: \"When I was riding the horse down the hill, I sprained my waist. At the time, I was on the ground for 10 minutes and couldn\'t move. Hu Jun lent his massager to help me loosen up.\" When speaking of the injury she got from the horseback riding triggered her recent numbness condition, Charmaine sighed she has injuries all over from all those years of filming. She can\'t tell which one are new or old injuries anymore. She just hopes she\'ll recover before she starts shooting the new TVB series next month.
