Mainland Best Actress Zhou Xun chose to announce her romance online as she posted a photo taken in Paris and wrote, "This is Archie, everyone please take extra care of him." She also introduced her other half and even added his information. They have been dating for over a year. For Zhou Xun, he moved the center of his career to the Mainland.

They began at a Hong Kong film event as a filmmaker introduced them. Zhou Xun in 2013 took a year long break before making OVERHEARD 3 (SIT TING FUNG WON 3). She probably wanted to spend more time at the beginning of the relationship. She went to New York for a short while and he also came to the Mainland. At the end of last year she thought about publicizing the romance but she was very serious about this relationship. She did not want to be mistaken for covering up rumors with a double, thus she only denied it.

Actually when Zhou Xun was working on OVERHEARD 3 in Hong Kong, according to sources Archie Kao also visited. Her announcement at this moment was from the impression that it "would be able to reduce unnecessary trouble and from now on they can appear in public together."

Zhou Xun's OVERHEARD 3 co-star Louis Koo Tin Lok said, "We worked together on the movie for a long time, we just saw each other last month. I wasn't able to detect that she had such a romance to be envious of. Best wishes." Daniel Wu (Ng Yin Cho) joked, "The three of us in the film played surveillance and anti surveillance experts, but in real life we actually didn't detect the romance of a good friend around us, truly the failure of failures!" Sean Lau Ching Wan joked that he had to "win her back" in the film. Gigi Leung Wing Kei said, "Love opened up your heart! Your smile is warm too! Endless blessing!" Zhou Xun happily replied to everyone, "Dear family and friends, I have received all your blessing. Thank you everyone, please take extra care of us!"
