### Summary
The conclusion of the side stories marks the definitive end of the manhwa, prompting an outpouring of bittersweet emotion from a devoted readership. The overwhelming sentiment is sadness that the beloved series, praised for being "too short," has finished. Fans expressed immense affection for the main couple, consistently describing them as "precious," "adorable," and the "Greenest couple" they know. This deep attachment fueled a strong desire for more content, with many readers wishing for additional chapters to explore future milestones. A recurring point of disappointment was the unfulfilled wish to meet Sang-ah's merman family, with many feeling let down that they never saw the parents or the two families meeting to discuss marriage. Despite this, specific moments from the finale were cherished, particularly a "cute" and heartwarming scene where Sang-ah tells a story to children with the help of sea creatures. The series as a whole is celebrated as a "beautiful" and "refreshing" read that provided a "fluffy break" from the angst common in other manhwas, leaving a lasting impression with its gorgeous art and perfectly happy, albeit brief, story.
