In order to develop the squid(Todarodes pacificus) sik-hae, the changes of TBA, fatty acids, free amino acids, and the number of microflora fermented at different fermentation temperatures and periods were determined. In addition, pretense from squid sik-hae was partially purified. The number of TBA was the highest after 5-day storage and decreased after that, and lipid oxidation was the highest at $10^{\circ}C$. The amounts of linoleic aid(18:2) and oleic acid (18:1) were about $60\%$ of fatty acid composition of squid sik-hae, and linolenic acid(18:3) and EPA(20:5) significantly decomposed with increasing fermentation periods and temperatures. Pro, His, Aeg, Leu, and Glu were composed mainly of amino acid and the composition ratios of Ser, His, and Arg decreased with increasing fermentation periods whereas, those of Glu, Ala, Val, and Tyr increased. The composition ratios of Glu, Val, and Met increased with increasing fermentation temperatures whereas, those of Ala, Cys, Thr, and Gly decreased. The number of microflora generally increased up to 15-days of storage and decreased after that. The rates of increass and decreass of the microbial number increased in proportion to fermentation temperatures. In addition, the bacteria producing proteases were identified as Bacillus spp. Proteases from $60{\sim}80\%$ ammonium sulfate concentration showed the highest activity and had about 15 binds with molecular weights between 20,000 and 40,000 Dalton by the SDS-PAGE.
