00:00but his wife was not as happy as he was.
00:05Ugh! Look at that disgusting cottage!
00:09Moldy and damp everywhere!
00:12I am tired of cleaning every day!
00:16The fisherman was very much in love with his wife,
00:19but no matter what he did,
00:21he could not make her happy.
00:24If he brings her fish,
00:27If he brings her fish,
00:35One day, the fisherman went fishing as usual.
00:38He swung his fishing rod into the water
00:41and started to wait.
00:43After a few hours,
00:45the tip of his fishing rod finally trembled.
00:49Oh! A fish hit the hook!
00:51But...
00:52Ouch!
00:53This must be a stubborn big fish!
00:58The fisherman pulled, pulled, pulled
01:01and was surprised to finally see the flounder
01:04on the tip of his fishing rod.
01:06Because this fish was golden and shining brightly.
01:11You finally managed to catch me,
01:13didn't you, fisherman?
01:15Huh?
01:16Did you just talk to me?
01:18Or am I going crazy?
01:20You heard right, fisherman.
01:22But listen, I'm not like the other fishes.
01:25I'm actually a prince under a spell!
01:29I can't believe this!
01:31Free me, fisherman!
01:33Please don't kill me!
01:35Even make a wish
01:37and I'll make it come true because you saved me!
01:40No, no, no need.
01:42I've never seen a talking fish before.
01:45Of course I will free you.
01:47Come on, go back to the seas.
01:51The fisherman returned home with great excitement.
01:55Why did you come back early?
01:57Didn't you catch fish?
01:59Couldn't you at least bring some fruit?
02:02No, darling.
02:04I caught a fish today, but...
02:07But?
02:08But that fish was talking!
02:11He told me he was actually a prince!
02:14What? And what happened then?
02:17Well, then he asked me to make a wish.
02:20But that moment I was shocked
02:22and I immediately let him back into the water.
02:25So you found a magic fish
02:27and left it back in the water without asking for anything?
02:31Ha! I cannot believe you!
02:34You saved his life!
02:35You could make a wish in return, like a house!
02:39Go catch that fish again
02:41and ask for a new home to make me happy.
02:44The fisherman could not refuse his wife's request
02:47and went back to the seaside.
02:51Flounder, flounder, fish prince,
02:54I just wanna make a wish.
02:56Come on, make true this wish.
02:58Tick-tock, tick-tock!
03:01The fish just came out of the water.
03:04What do you want, fisherman? Tell me!
03:07My wife is not happy at all.
03:10Tired of living in a cottage.
03:12She wants a nice house.
03:14So go home, fisherman.
03:16She has a new home now.
03:19The fisherman ran home and saw his wife
03:22standing in front of a perfect house.
03:25The inside of the house was full of brand new furniture
03:29and everywhere was immaculate.
03:32Oh, husband, we will no longer live in a cottage
03:35but in a wonderful house
03:37and everything is new and clean.
03:40Yes, my wife.
03:41Now we can live happily ever after in this house, right?
03:47We can never know that, my darling.
03:52That night, the fisherman's wife could not sleep.
03:57As soon as the morning came,
04:00she made another request from her husband
04:03at the breakfast table.
04:05Husband, this house seems too small for us.
04:09I want a bigger house.
04:11Even a palace.
04:14What?
04:15I want to be a queen.
04:17Don't you understand?
04:19Go and tell that to the fish prince.
04:23The fisherman went to the seaside
04:25with thoughts in his head.
04:27Flounder, flounder, fish prince,
04:30I just want to make a wish.
04:32Come on, make true this wish.
04:35Tick-tock, tick-tock.
04:37My wife is not happy at all.
04:40Why, fisherman?
04:42She wants to have a palace.
04:44So go home, fisherman.
04:46Your wife now lives in a palace.
04:50When the fisherman returned,
04:51he saw that there was now a huge palace
04:54where his house was
04:56and his wife was sitting on a huge throne
04:59in the palace hall.
05:01My darling, you really have become a queen.
05:05Yes.
05:07So, are you happy now?
05:10No.
05:11I actually want to be the empress,
05:14not the queen.
05:16What?
05:17A fish can't make you an empress.
05:19Do you understand?
05:21Let the fish prince decide that.
05:23Come on, move.
05:25Go ask the fish to make me the empress.
05:29The poor fisherman.
05:33The poor fisherman went to the seaside sadly
05:37to make his wife happy.
05:40Flounder, flounder, fish prince,
05:42I just want to make a wish.
05:45Come on, make true this wish.
05:47Tick-tock, tick-tock.
05:50My wife is still not happy.
05:53Well, is that so?
05:55So what does she want this time?
05:57She...
05:59She wants to be an empress.
06:02So go home, fisherman.
06:04Your wife is now an empress.
06:08When the fisherman came running back,
06:10he could not believe his eyes.
06:13The palace was now much larger than before.
06:16Moreover, there were guards at the door.
06:20His wife, on the other hand,
06:22was now sitting on a more glorious throne
06:25as an empress.
06:28Oh, my darling,
06:30you really have become an empress.
06:33Yes.
06:37So, are you happy now?
06:40Hmm, I don't know.
06:42We'll talk about it later.
06:44I'm so tired today.
06:46We better sleep now.
06:49The fisherman and his wife lay on the bed to sleep.
06:53The fisherman fell asleep,
06:55praying that his wife would not want anything more from him.
07:00However, his wife did not sleep again.
07:05She had been thinking all night
07:07about what more she could want from that magic fish.
07:11A week has passed.
07:13The woman called her husband before her
07:16and made a request.
07:18Husband, time keeps running out.
07:22I want to control time.
07:25I want to live above the clouds
07:28and rule the sun and the moon.
07:32What are you saying, wife?
07:34Why do you want such a thing?
07:36Why is this abundance, wealth, and power not enough?
07:40If you want me to be happy,
07:42go to that fish prince now and tell him my wish.
07:46I can't do this, my darling.
07:48Please stop now.
07:50But don't you want me to be happy?
07:54The fisherman risked everything to make his wife happy
07:59and went to the seaside again.
08:03Flounder, flounder, fish prince,
08:05I just want to make a wish.
08:07Come on, make true this wish.
08:09Tick-tock, tick-tock.
08:14My wife is still not happy.
08:17I'm sorry about that, fisherman.
08:19What does she want this time?
08:21My wife wants to control time.
08:24She wants to rule the sun and the moon
08:27in a palace above the clouds.
08:29Alright, fisherman, go home.
08:31Your wife now has what she wants.
08:36When the fisherman came running back,
08:39neither his wife nor the palace were there.
08:43When he looked up,
08:45he saw that the clouds were far away from him.
08:50Oh, my wife, where are you?
08:53You are far from me now.
08:56The fisherman hurried back to the seashore
08:59and called the fish prince.
09:01Flounder, flounder, fish prince,
09:03I just want to make a wish.
09:05Come on, make true this wish.
09:06Tick-tock, tick-tock.
09:09What happened to my wife?
09:11I just fulfilled her wish.
09:13She gave up everything to rule time above the clouds,
09:16so neither you can see her,
09:18nor can she see you.
09:21Oh, fish prince, I saved your life,
09:25but I never asked you for a wish myself.
09:28I always wanted something from my wife.
09:31Please help me.
09:32Give me back my wife.
09:35Hmm, you're right, fisherman.
09:37Tell me, what is your wish?
09:40May my wife always be with me
09:42and very happy.
09:44This is my wish.
09:46Well, fisherman, go home.
09:48Your wife has everything to be happy.
09:53The fisherman ran home with great excitement.
09:56He was very surprised to see this new situation.
10:01His wife was waiting for him in front of the cottage
10:04just like in the old days.
10:08Oh, my husband,
10:10I couldn't realize the worth of what I had.
10:13I was actually very happy with you
10:16in this small and cute cottage.
10:19Oh, my wife.
