I love you

Was it love at first sight? Perhaps this is the only reason why the mermaid has been obsessed with Alan since the day he met Alan in the sea at the age of 8.
Is it really because of the loss of the ability to love? Why can't he give a clear answer when his girlfriend in reality asks him "Do you love me"? In fact, Alan has been waiting for the unknown her, even though she doesn't know who her name is, where she lives, whether it is possible to meet her in this life...until he thinks that he will die of loneliness, a mysterious calling He came to the shore where he saw mermaids 20 years ago. At this point, the story may have fallen into a cliché, but the more a story with a known ending, the more interesting it is to explore. There is no doubt that the mermaid rescued him and walked towards the boy of his dreams naked. Before Alan could react, she jumped into his arms and kissed him. In many later scenes, she is not very good at speaking, but she has already used the nature of all creatures to express her love. I thought, how cute is this mermaid from a strange country. She is simple and doesn't know how to hide her emotions. She will cry when watching movies, but she doesn't know how to open the box to see when she receives a gift... Even English is in TV commercials in department stores. on a temporary school. But she knows how to love. She always wanted to express how much she loved Alan, always wanted to kiss him, hug him, even sold her necklace and bought the mermaid fountain sculpture in the park back to his apartment. Such a big surprise can be understood as how deep love is? She won't be sweet, she will only say one thing because I love you. The simplest words often convey the deepest feelings. It is precisely because he devoted himself to love that he was even more afraid of losing him. So she was always worried that her identity as a fish would be rejected by him after being exposed - she knew he would reject it, but why did he reject it? Did he forget that every minute spent with her was unparalleled joy, did he forget that the so-called love is to make two people together happy?
Still exposed. Alan's expression went numb to her with a fish tail. He said that he doesn't have high requirements for love, but at least the other party should be a human being. This is the most basic principle... He couldn't accept this reality for a while. God, what does that even mean? As long as she keeps her body dry, she won't turn into a fish, and besides, she's no different from a normal girl, she's more beautiful, isn't that enough to make up for it? Maybe it's because I'm too irrational. I always thought that Alan's scruples didn't stand in the way of their love. If you really believe that the other party is the only partner in this life, why should you care about her past, those secondary factors? Because you love her, you won't realize that such a cute girl can turn into a fish tail when she gets wet. As for the opinions of others, the intervention of the media can't hinder the happiness that should be there, can it?
But he was too sensible. Although he confirmed his love after several struggles, this love is doomed to be fruitless. In order to protect her from public opinion, he crossed many obstacles and sent her to the seaside, and gave her a free life. He said you can only go back to the sea, how much I want to go back with you, but unfortunately I can't. The mermaid said you can, forget that when you were 8 years old, you fell into the sea without getting hurt? That's because you're with me. Alan was ecstatic. How could he have thought that the little girl who made him fall in love with him was the mermaid who gave him his true love? Is it really fate, is fate really wonderful? He almost went mad. However, he hesitated when she said he would never be able to return to human life ashore after he went back to sea with her. Home, relatives, familiar life, and a beautiful and magical love, which one is more important? Love can continue to search, everything can be done all over again... He quickly comforted himself. Then a scene that touched me happened. In order to reassure her to return to the sea, he said out loud "I love you!" I clearly saw the sad and relieved expression on the mermaid's face. For this sentence, for this heart that can't be with her but belongs to her forever, it's worth it. Women, what they want is so simple, but because those three words are so heavy, men usually don't give it easily, creating so many sad stories. With this sentence, it seems to hold the most beautiful promise, a promise that cannot be broken in any time and space, enough to warm the rest of my life.
I think, she compromised and has no regrets, so she jumped into the sea.
Isn't this a comedy, why do you want me to be sad? The story isn't over yet. Alan instantly realized what he was after, so he jumped into the sea and called to her. She swam back, as usual, with a tight hug and a deep sweet kiss, and then pulled him to swim to the most beautiful palace on the deep blue seabed, their sweet home.
Perhaps the most perfect ending can never be achieved in reality, so another fairy tale will be staged to comfort us adults who are eager for romantic dreams. No matter what, life is still beautiful after all.
Let's pursue the fate in the dark, it is not mysterious, nor is it far away, it has been quietly waiting for us to approach. Don't let it get lost easily. It will guide you to a new life!

    Old movie, it turns out that Tom Hanks was like this when he was young~ I am used to seeing him play the uncle.

    I watched this film because of the influence of the Korean drama "Legend of the Blue Sea". I wanted to see what mermaid works in other countries would look like, so I revisited this time-honored work. The hero and heroine who became acquainted with him when he was young, the fate is wonderful, very romantic and funny.
