Since man made the spear one-hundred thousand years ago, the fish have been a surprising role in human history. They've only been known as food for man who have been hungry! How have they changed the history of humans? Here goes the story...

The KBS documentary program Superfish takes a thorough look into the history of fishing over the past 100,000 years, from fishing techniques to the role of fish in East Asian food and culture. The five episodes – “Fish Planet,” “The Great Taste of Fish,” “Mystery of Rotten Fish,” “Fish on Friday” and “Super Fish” – offer a fascinating essay on the intriguing relationship between fish and humans over the course of global history. Using high-speed and underwater shooting and time-slicing, Superfish also breaks new ground in documentary filmmaking with its stunning underwater imagery and dramatic editing. Narrated by actor Kim Suk Hoon.
