Comments: Not funny, but still, people looking stupid and acting stupid is only two strikes. Leave it to Hong Kong to strike out with 'sounding stupid' too. Seriously, this is 2016. No dubbing! If you make a movie with actors who speak two different languages, leave them be. I'm reading subtitles. I can't understand either language, but I can sure tell when someone's dubbed. How do HongKongers live with this?

Summary: Xuan's estate project involving reclamation of the sea threatens the livelihood of the mermaids who rely on the sea to survive. Shan is dispatched to stop Xuan and this leads them into falling for each other. Out of his love for Shan, Xuan plans to stop the reclamation. Unfortunately, Shan and the other mermaids are hunted by a hidden organisation and Xuan has to save Shan before it's too late...
