Every year, a young maiden from a small fishing village is sacrificed to the sea god. This year, A Li who was chosen to be the bride of the sea god arrived at the island by boat. On her wedding night, A Li discovered her husband, Sea God Yan, was an orc; a half-human, half-beast. Later, A Li sneaked into a forbidden room and discovered the secret of the bride in the ice coffin. One day at the beach, A Li saved a small injured fish and brought back to the palace, and named it Hai Da Yu. Da Yu transformed into a human and accompanied the lonely and helpless A Li. The two gradually fell in love. After A Li became pregnant, Sea God Yan imprisoned her while Hai Da Yu disappeared. The maid Hai Fu Rong opened the cell and rescued A Li. But it turned out that what was waiting for her is a long-established conspiracy. (Source: WeTV) ~~ Adapted from the novel “Strange Tales of Liao Zhai” by Pu Song Ling. Edit Translation

Reviews
quiet unique.
I think the story is different. There's many dramas and movies about mermaids but this story is different it's a big fish but not a other mermaid story. I just like the idea that it's about a giant fish it's not something I've seen before so the idea is great. Also heroine is great although it's as expected that she would obviously be scared or surprise at first but she's not cowardly or weak which is a plus.The story has a twist so it's something to look forward to. As you watch the show you may have many questions and maybe confused about what are the character but it would be explained very clearly near the end of the movie.
I think it should be a drama instead of a movie. It just felt so rushed, there's no time for development. However overall it's quiet fun to watch.
One of the better movies out there
I really liked this movie. I would like to see a drama made from it so the story background could be explained more and the romance part made longer. Lol I am a romantic?.Storyline - I liked it. Only thing is that I have found with Chinese movies is that they cut a lot and jump a lot to tell the story. The difference from American and Asian movies, as far as I can tell, is that American movies based off a novel is just that - based off a novel that is anywhere from a couple of hundred pages to a couple of thousand. And I may be wrong but I have noticed most Asian dramas are based off a manga that runs for weeks to months to maybe years to tell the story and so most Chinese, Korean, and Asian dramas are long and many episodes so they can cover all the details. So for me the movies always fall short because there is to much story to put into a couple of hours and it gets chopped. I did really like this one however. It covered the basic and you understood what was going on throughout the movie. I just wish it had more background story to really tell why this was happening and so on. But again that would make for a very long movie like Lord of the Rings. But it was a good show.
Acting/Cast - I really liked the FL. I have seen her in many CDramas and have really grown to like her. She did a really good job in this movie. As for the ML this is my first time seeing him and I was not disappointed. He did a great job.
Music - was good. I liked it a lot as I do all CDramas and KDrama music.
Rewatch - It is a definite YES! I did like it. I recommend it.
