Synopsis and Plot Summary
The cowardly high school student Zhao Longjie (Kent Tsai) just wants to catch a break from all the bad luck in his life. One day, he inexplicably encounters a domineering "merman." In order to find a way to send Ren Yu (Bruce Hung) back to the sea, they begin a bizarre experience of living together.
Ren Yu (Bruce Hung) who is a merman from the legends has not only become a tenant residing in the bathroom of high school student Longjie (Kent Tsai) but also becomes his classmate! He loves to eat, sleep, make trouble and uses brute force all day long to persuade Longjie to help him figure out the reason why he was summoned ashore. It turns out that their fates have long been destined. Even if Longjie is unwilling, Ren Yu is the test that he cannot escape and the friend he is reluctant to let go.
