Hurry, hurry.

I'm going!

Episode 1

- What fortune is all this? - I know, right?

Just pick them up quickly.

Wow, it's a full harvest! A year of abundance!

I've never seen something like this.

- Hurry and put them in the basket. - Yes, yes.

What is this?

Come quickly.

Is it a human or a fish?

Where's the mermaid?

This way.

It's a real mermaid.

Here, here, here...

- Be careful, Sir! - Ah, you started me!

- Why? - They say that if you touch a mermaid without caution,

the mermaid will take the human's soul and erase their memory.

What nonsense are you talking about?

I heard that is... a way the mermaids defend themselves against humans.

I heard that there are some seamen who went crazy, by touching mermaids.

Well, that doesn't matter, since I won't be using my hands on the mermaid but

using a sword.

Does it understand?

Anyway, I intend on giving you people a big treat today.

Yes, yes.

Sung Ga, is the feast preparation going well?

Yes.

When is the newly appointed town head arriving?

Sir, many town heads have come and gone,

but it's the first time seeing someone with such great features.

- Is that so? - Yes.

Ever since the time I studied in Sungkyunkwan (UNIVERSITY),

I'm not sure about the academics, but I never lost first place for visuals.

'Head and shoulders above others, ' or 'high and lofty, ' shall I say.

It's a pity that such a great person became a widower so early in life.

You really would be melting the hearts of the ladies in the village.

Sir, have you possibly heard about the mermaid?

- Mermaid? - Yes.

The people of the boats say that, when mermaids come to the land, they gain human legs.

There was a case that they married a human.

Those are all old stories, aren't they?

Although there are rumours about the existence of mermaids, no one has actually seen one,

so how is it different from a ghost story that causes delusions for people?

Is that so?

Today is a happy day when a new town head has come.

I am thinking of showing everyone a very rare sight.

Sir. It's a real mermaid.

Not the kind of mermaid that is told in an old story,

but a real mermaid that I caught myself.

You...

What do you intend on doing with that mermaid?

At the tomb of Qin Shi Huang, there supposed to be a never extinguished flame.

Do you know the secret to that? It's mermaid oil.

They say the oil extracted from a mermaid is of best quality.

Even the whale oil, that is supposed to be the best oil, do not compare to it.

It doesn't rot, even if you leave it for a long time.

So this is just.. the value can't be priced.

After doing my duties and living with goodwill,

I guess these kind of fortunes come.

To someone like you who does his duties and lives with good will,

I'm very sorry to say this but..

What may you happen to be saying..?

I privately checked before starting my post here.

- By what do you mean? - You,

You had prepaid over 1000 nyang worth of tax, and acquired a government position,

and collected over 3 times of that amount from the fishermen.

That is a really bad crime...

and the times are even worse. Recently, His Majesty

has declared that those who make profits with tax,

and make the citizens suffer should be punished severely.

Normally it would be punished with just 100 hits...

Ah, but this time it seems to be the case of taking one's life instead..what a pity.

Then, could you please tell me

what I would have to do?

I mean, if there's something you would wish for..

Anything.

Anything?

Anything that is.

Anything you say...

How dare he comes to my land and causes me disgrace.

We'll see what happens.

A mermaid cannot survive, leaving the sea.

I will definitely put that mermaid in my hands again.

And that naive town head...

I'm going to get rid of him with my hands.

Look, look over there. What is that wily thing doing?

Is she trying to drag that town head guy into the ocean

and take his soul and erase his memory, isn't she?

They say

mermaids only erase memories that they want to erase.

However, it would be better not to take that hand.

The worlds that a human and mermaid live in are clearly different,

whether it's good or bad destiny,

what use is it to form ties with it?

♬ Y'all ready? (READY) I keep doing ♬

- It's time to get off. - Mum, I'll press it.

- Our Seo Won is going to press it? - Yes.

Ok.

I'm Kim Myung Hoon. A lawyer.

I'm Nam In Joong, who called earlier. It's true

that I won't get caught buying stolen goods, right?

- Oh, what's this? - Oh, my!

Ta Da! It's a present.

Thank you, sir!

You know, you're like the Harry Potter of

con-artists. Oh no, you're better than Harry Potter.

Because your visuals are better.

Exactly.

It's the Public prosecutors office.

Our elevators broken so..

Ah yes, sorry for the inconvenience.

Yes, it's right in front, so we'll be there right away.

Yes.

Ok, let's go. Hey, wake up.

- Let's go. - Hey, go!

- I guess you came quickly since you said you were nearby. - Ah, yes.

Work hard.

Just a moment.

Chief Go didn't come? He was the one who always came.

Aigo, I'm telling you! That can't prove the identity!

Don't you know Judge Lee's style?

- Would you like some tea? - No, it's okay.- Have a seat.

You look even better now! #730 prosecutors organization chart

Mr. Prosecutor, I had told you about him before...

This is CEO Han, who brought this work to us.

This is Myungdong Capital's madam.

Myungdong Capital?

I told you about it before. You know, in Gangnam Jeil High School,

a student committed suicide, but his suicide note had her son's name written on it.

He's the crazy idiot.

If he's going to fall, then he should fall by

himself and die. Why write my son's name on there?

Why does my son have to go through this, because of a crazy idiot died?

My son will be taking a college entrance exam soon.

Now is a crucial time to take care of his mental health.

Come out within a minute. The office owner will be coming back soon.

Should we go for some lunch? Ah, I'm hungry.

What do you like, madam?

What is this!

It's good. It's all good but, I can't really do much for you.

Just get my son cleared.

Our secret account is near Virgin Island...

That's not that good.

- Excuse me? - Virgin Island is not so good.

- What? - That is a tax haven.

When it's supposed to be a haven, how can it be so famous? Can you even hide there?

That's true...

Why don't you move it and then hide?

I know a pretty cool place.

Where is it?

It's an island in the Mediterranean sea. I heard the view is amazing there.

Oh yes, Madame! I've just checked the amount!

Of course! We're all on the same boat now.

If anyone gets a hold of that account then of course,

our dear Prosecutor would have to step down

but your company would be left in the dust with tax audits-You are aware of that?

I'll be praying for nothing but success for your son's college entrance exams.

I'll be hanging up now, alright.

Damn, it's so clean!

I had the best dreams with this gig ahead of us.

Hey, Tae-...

Hey! You're not even going to say bye?!

- That little... - Leave him alone, he doesn't know

how to saybye but he can open doors in 2 seconds.

I hate it the most when he just goes without saying bye!

What, and you do? You're the one with the crappiest mannerisms.

In the text that was compiled by royal physicians during the

Joseon Dynasty, they call perspiration, fluids of the heart.

Having a lot of perspiration on your hands signifies

that your heart might have some problems.

Oh, my heart.

Herbalists can really tell with just a glance, can't they.

Nothing but an occupational hazard. Darn-I really wanted to just rest during my break.

But from humanistic aspects, I couldn't let it go by unnoticed. Nothing but

an occupational hazard. Darn-I really wanted to just rest during my break.

But from humanistic aspects, I couldn't let it go by unnoticed.

You must be a man with a lot of love.

We'll be landing shortly so I'll go ahead and open your blinds.

Yes ma'am.

Isn't it beautiful? I've been to a number of countries

but there isn't a place that can match the ocean here.

You're right.

When I flew around here a long time ago, I heard something

the from elderly men who've lived here for a long time,

they said that mermaids still live in these waters.

Oh! Of course.

It's true!

A long time ago, mermaids lived in any parts of the ocean

but now most of them have disappeared

and they say the last mermaids that remain on this Earth, live in this ocean.

Wow!

Mom! Look there!

It's a mermaid in the sea!

I read him a fairy tale once and now he thinks mermaids are real.

Who is that!? What is it!?

What... What mess is this?

Now I gotta clean all this up...

What are you?

I'm asking who you think you are that you're in here!

Are you Chinese? Japanese?

No you're not... You've got that Korean-feel.

- Damn. That... - Damn.-The clothes I really treasure...

Why do you-

The security in this hotel is a damn mess!

Hey! I said that's mine-!

So you kick people when they're not looking?

Who do you think you are! Glaring like that!

What's that you have in your hands?

Hand it over. I said open your hands!

Hey! N-Neck, why'd my neck just turn like that?

I didn't get to stretch my body out because it's

still morning but I'm all stretched out now-!

I am all stretched out but I don't really wanna fight first thing in the morning.

So, if you just put down whatever you have in that hand

then I'll pretend this never happened.

What is it? Is it a watch? A ring?

If you're delusional then put a flower on your head, you're confusing people.

Hello?

Please call the police, somebody broke into my room.

Yes.

You're caught red-handed today!

If you're going to go around doing stuff like this, then say "sumimasen".

And don't go shaming the country, got it?!

I always do that.

Hey, repeat after me.

Hey! Su-Mi-Ma-Sen.

Sumimasen.

This is to make sure you don't try to squirm your way out of this.

Look here, look here! Good.

But what in the world did you steal?

Hey, did you just-

- Oh, I'm so sorry, I apologize. - It's okay, it's okay,

Damn, the security is shit.

Excuse me, I'm just asking but do you need to cuff her?

Couldn't help it, there was a risk she might run.

Oh! Okay.

I'm just saying, she didn't steal anything.

Well that's because we caught her before that happened.

You're lucky, we got a lot of thefts in the area recently.

She's a prime suspect, very much so.

Prime suspect my ass.

No matter how you look at her she's obviously got a screw loose.

Let's see...

What is this?

I sent a picture so look into it.

It looks like a Jadeite.

It's similar to the one I saw that time, this feels serious.

The owner of it?

She's something serious too, one thing's for sure-she isn't normal.

Hey! Hey you! Look at my hand!

Focus! I'm talking to you!

Why did you break into that hotel?! Huh!? What were you trying to get!

You've been to other hotels too, right?

What are you smiling at!?

You won't even answer my questions but got the nerve to smile?

Do you think this is some kind of joke?!

Easy, easy!

- Easy! - Hurry up and get down!

That's right, that's right!

I'm a woman with a principle.

"Connections made on the plane end on the plane"

"No private meetings on land"

But you're making me break promises to myself.

I must have been quite taken with you, Ms. Minji

- But why are your hands so small? - My hands?

Look at this, your hands are so small!

- Oh, what's this? - How did you do that?

I wonder, how'd I do it?

Jackpot! This bracelet is at the very least 400 years old or 99% pure

but I'm 100% sure it's genuine article!

If it really is real then it's worth more than $62k.

For now, let's check it in-person. Who's the owner

of the bracelet, are you with her right now?

This is so pretty, are you giving it to me?

- No! - Excuse me?

Oh. I was just... showing it to you. Wondering if it's pretty or whatever.

I'm relieved you said it's pretty.

It's for my mother. She likes white gold.

I think I have to go now.

- What did you just say? - Till the next time.

That bracelet has something embedded in writing, it's Chinese characters.

Dam Ryeong. I think it's someone's name.

- Dam Ryeong? - They say those bound to succeed end up

throwingoverhead kicks even when they fall backwards.

You're blessed by God to have lucked in on that lotto!

What should I do? Should I go to you?

Hey, what are you doing here?

I got nothing more to ask you.

She didn't steal anything. Please let her go.

You don't tell me what to do.

EYES GAUGED: 60% white, normal concentration Wrinkled forehead, hotheaded,

high and quick emotion variationSensitive, high-than-average temperature

WEDDING BAND: new, newleywed Empty gun holster, low wariness

CONCLUSION: Utilize bonding over similarities to persuade.

She's not a stranger.

Then what was she doing there?

She's actually my wife.

- Your wife? - Yes!

We just got married. Look.

She's wearing a dress.

We need to be on our honeymoon but can't.

Because she's stuck here.

I am so sorry! I'll release her right away.

Okay.

A gift.

Thank you so much.

Congratulations.

Hey! Stay there!

I'm sorry about this morning.

I was heartless. I apologize.

Right?

You don't have the heart to shake my hand yet, right?

Well, let's just gradually do that.

But... that bracelet.

It's pretty!

It's... pretty.

Pretty...? Pretty...

Let's go. Because there are things I'm sorry about, I'll buy you a present.

It's a red light! You should stop.

Seriously, what's your identity?

Oh, it's over there.

Quickly come here.

Ah, really.

Hold on, wait here for a bit.

Wear it.

I said to put it on.

Hey, hey, hey.

That's right. You should wear this now.

Instead of walking around barefoot.

What is this? A woman's foot all chafed up.

Aish, really.

Ah, really. Go inside.

That person Nam Doo

Ah, just wait a little. I'm still with the girl.

Excuse me, do you know where she went?

She's in the fitting room, isn't she?

Gosh, 6 million. Where did you go?

Home For Missing Children

She's having fun.

Why are you, a grown person, in here...?

Hey, I told you to wait.

Do you not know what waiting means?

If you leave without a word, I get really surprised.

Are you okay? You didn't get hurt anywhere?

Yeah, you didn't get hurt anywhere.

What's this? You know how to smile.

You're hungry, right? Let's go eat. You like to eat.

Are you from the jungle?

Are you a werewolf maiden? Why are you so instinctive?

Okay, look.

Like this, okay?

Try it.

That's it! Good.

I think we've really gotten close now, right?

So what I'm saying is... Oh! You got something stuck here.

Is that your first time seeing fire? Why are you looking at it so surprised?

Do you like it?

Pretty.

Eat all of what you ate.

I'm going somewhere so wait right here.

So let's meet each other right now! Should I go there or do you want to come here?

I told you I need to go somewhere.

Where are you going? Leaving something so precious?

There's a place. The world's end.

The world's end my butt. Do you want to go to the end together with me?

- Hey, don't be like that and... - Just wait a week.

Thank you.

Would you please leave? Our business hours are over.

It's closed, closed.

Do you speak English?

Hello. Do you understand that?

She is crazy.

Because of her we are getting off work late.

♬ Always in the same dream ♬

♬ An unfamiliar face and ♬

♬ In a time which is suspended ♬

♬ You and I meet by chance ♬

♬ I guess I was a little terrified ♬

♬ I am afraid it will be a dream forever ♬

♬ Will you open your eyes again now? ♬

It's you.

♬ I can't close ♬

♬ My two eyes which ♬

♬ Only see you ♬

♬ Even if I am bitten again ♬

♬ This is really love you know ♬

♬ This is love story ♬

♬ This is happiness ♬

♬ I'm afraid it might be a dream ♬

♬ I can't open my eyes ♬

♬ This is my love story ♬

♬ I love you, only you ♬

That's pretty.

That's mine. Give it back.

Wait.

Wait is a word that means something good is going to happen.

A word that even when, like a wave, I go somewhere

far away for a bit, my friend will find me.

A word that even when there's something scary like a shark around,

you don't have to be scared or look around (FOR SOMETHING).

No, but why are you, a grown person, in here?

Hey, I told you to wait.

Don't you understand the word wait?

If you leave without a word, I get really surprised.

Are you okay? You didn't get hurt anywhere?

Yeah, you didn't get hurt anywhere.

A word that means my friend is wishing for me not to get hurt.

A word that warms the heart.

A word that means something good is going to happen.

The Legend of the Blue Sea

Hey! Turn on the light!

I'm not even surprised anymore. It's not like there's only 1 or 2 weird things.

Aigoo.

What is love?

That's surrendering.

Meaning you're in big trouble.
