“Mr. Plankton” is a Netflix series that tells the story of a man named Haejo, who was mistakenly born as an unusual ‘sea creature,’ and Jemi, the unhappiest woman in the world, as they embark on a final journey in life together.
Woo Do Hwan takes on the role of Haejo. Haejo, who was born as an unconventional ‘creature,’ without a family, chooses a life of wandering. Suddenly, news that shakes up his life finds its way to him, and Haejo sets out to find his biological father, who he knows nothing about.

Oh Jung Se plays the role of Junga, a prominent figure in the traditional family. To overcome the opposition of the elderly members of his family, Junga resorts to an unexpected tactic of claiming Jemi is pregnant with their child. However, on the day of the wedding, Jemi mysteriously disappears with Haejo, leaving Junga furious and determined to pursue them.
Kim Hae Sook portrays the mother of Junga and the daughter-in-law of the traditional family. As the backbone of the powerful food industry business owned by the wealthy Pungyeong family, she exudes an intimidating presence. Filled with anger at the fact that Jemi, the prospective daughter-in-law she had accepted, disappears alongside Haejo, she unleashes her wrath to capture Haejo without hesitation.
“Mr. Plankton” portrays the journey of Haejo, who has no attachment to anyone and cannot find a place to belong, as he searches for his roots.
