"The Bride of Habaek" is a comical fantasy romantic drama about a god of water named Ha Baek (Nam Joo-hyuk) and a realist female doctor named So-ah (Shin Se-kyung).

- What will the new "The Bride of Habaek" be like?

"The Bride of Habaek" focuses mainly the romance of Ha Baek the God of water and human So-ah.

"Bride of the Water God" was modernized for the fun of the viewers and was based in Seoul. God of water Ha Baek meets So-ah and falls in love.

- The formation of a new world!

"The Bride of Habaek" is going to appear in 3 structures. If "Bride of the Water God" happens in the underwater world, "The Bride of Habaek" happens in water, the heavens and land. Each structure has a god with responsibilities.

Ha Baek comes down to the human world to retrieve something that acknowledges the successor to the throne. Gods that live in the human world experience new and interesting experiences.

- Realistic characters are reborn

Characters have been newly created. Ha Baek in the original novel is in the form of a little boy who doesn't know anything and turns into a high spirited young man at night. "The Bride of Habaek" is more realistic than that.

Ha Baek is bad tempered but he's a God Fatale in the drama. So-ah is an unlucky psychiatrist who becomes a servant of the god. She's made her own fortune and constructs the probability of the story.

"The Bride of Habaek" claims to have increased the intensity of Ha Baek and So-ah's romance while creating three-dimensional characters to enhance engagement in the drama.
