TV-14Season 1
Synopsis
The Bride of Habaek (하백의 신부, 2017), Season 1 — a Korean fantasy romance with 16 episodes to watch online on iFILM. The water god Ha-baek arrives in the human world on a single mission: collect three sacred stones scattered among humans and return home.
Problem: his powers barely work here. So-ah is a psychiatrist barely keeping her clinic afloat who finds this allegedly divine visitor more aggravating than impressive — until the evidence gets too strange to dismiss. Her family has served the water gods for generations, which makes her his unwilling guide whether she agrees or not. A third party complicates things: Hoo-ye, a half-god behind a resort empire, develops his own interest in So-ah for reasons that the show takes its time revealing. The series pairs the slow-burn romance with a genuine mystery — who is interfering with divine power in the human world — and it's that second thread that keeps the 16 episodes moving. Stream The Bride of Habaek Season 1 online on iFILM, all episodes available.
