(Episode 11)

(An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. You'll suffer the same!)

This is Kim Yang Hee's father...

Kim Yong Deok's last words.

(Prescription)

Actually...

My father is ill.

I...

have to work.

You can't work in your current condition.

I can't allow you to, either.

I'm the only one in my family who makes money.

I'm sorry.

There's something I need to do.

Something very important.

(Doctor Detective)

(I will kill myself.)

Ms. Doh.

Are you really going to keep acting on your own?

I have a connection...

with this case.

Don't mind it.

It's not your fault.

The fault lies elsewhere.

The threatening letter...

I think he sent it because of his dead daughter.

You mean Kim Yang Hee?

Let's all work together to single out the possibilities.

(911, Ambulance)

(Kim Yong Deok, 67, male)

Let's keep this a secret from TL for the time being.

A worker died all alone in an abandoned factory...

due to an industrial accident.

Let's investigate the exact cause of death...

for the deceased.

I thought it was arsenic poisoning at first,

but my conclusion is that it's not it.

What about the pesticide factory industrial accident case of 1998?

Unlike his coworkers, he wasn't acknowledged as a victim.

That means he wasn't poisoned.

Maybe back then, but what about now?

It could be acute poisoning.

The measurements from the abandoned factory came out today.

The amount of arsenic within the air is insignificant.

You can't get poisoned with this.

These are pictures of arsenic poisoning.

Of course, they are of patients who had chronic poisoning.

However, he didn't have Mees' lines,

which show up even with the slightest amount.

He never did.

Kim Yong Deok didn't die of arsenic poisoning.

Then you're right!

He just happened to be at the abandoned factory,

but he found a slight amount of arsenic,

so he can threaten them with that!

That is correct. Lines on his teeth,

pigmentation in the iris,

and desquamation on his arms...

It's chronic mercury poisoning.

Yes.

- "Mercury"? - How?

It's mercury poisoning?

Let's consider the possibilities and go with it.

I requested for autopsy to the police.

If it was mercury poisoning, the mercury will be in his bones,

so we'll be able to find out if we're right.

Let's just wait and see.

We'll have to see how she will react.

What about Moh Sung Kuk?

Yes, sir. Here you go.

You're making too many mistakes.

It won't be as easy as you thought.

You lost track of the homeless man...

and just brought another body.

Then you exposed the scene to the UDC.

I'm sorry, sir.

But since they reported him dead, you shouldn't have to worry...

Is there...

a reason I should be worried?

No, sir. I'm sorry.

"Sorry"?

That's very irresponsible of you.

I don't work with irresponsible people.

I know why the UDC was looking for Kim Yong Deok, sir.

I saw Doh Joong Eun meet up with him several times.

I'm sure that's why they were looking for him.

Should I start the car, sir?

(Report it to him.)

Report it to him.

Gosh, Mr. Ko!

Go and get some rest! You have so much to do.

It's all right, ma'am.

Thank you for trusting me.

No problem.

Let's keep working together.

- Thank you, chief. - Stop cleaning!

Yes. All right.

Ms. Gong, the autopsy results we requested for are here.

- How are they? - He did die of hunger.

His stomach and intestines were completely empty.

And the mercury level in his blood was incredibly high.

Okay.

Where did Doh Joong Eun go?

Let's have a meeting.

- Okay. - Okay.

I'm certain Kim Yong Deok's case was covered up due to mercury poisoning.

But we need to find out if this was recent or in the past.

Mr. Ha, did you find anything?

The results didn't show any traces of mercury in the air.

Neither in the container.

We didn't find any mercury in his hair either.

I told you it's chronic poisoning.

Did he have a job?

I pulled his health insurance data.

He worked until 2016. But...

What is it?

Mr. Kim Yong Deok was the business owner.

He was the president?

Jeil Industry.

(Jeil Industry)

He was the owner of a factory.

But how did he end up like that?

Why would an owner of a factory...

end up dead alone in an abandoned factory?

That's what we need to find out.

Jeil Industry was a subcontractor of TL Display.

But if you search "Jeil Industry"...

and "mercury poisoning" together,

there isn't any information on mercury poisoning.

This means the articles were deleted intentionally.

Hold on.

Why?

What are you looking for?

I'm sure I saw something.

I found it.

(Subcontractors of TL protest about mercury poisoning)

The company that hid this information was TL Display.

Come on in.

Did you call for me?

I heard you joined the headquarters.

How long has it been since you became the president of TL Chemical?

Well, since we got promoted around the same time,

about three years?

How time flies by.

Tell me about it.

It's about time you stop.

Sorry?

Being the president of a subsidiary.

Let's gather...

the executives.

Okay.

Mr. Moh, it's me.

Choi Tae Young has started to make a move.

He's gathering the executives?

I'm telling you.

Do you have a plan?

Don't worry, Mr. Yim. It's nothing to be wavered about.

You talk as if it's nothing.

What should I do now?

Do as I say for now. The time will come soon.

There was a mercury poisoning case...

at TL Display 10 years ago.

I heard about it a long time ago.

Is it related to your ex-husband?

Choi Tae Young...

just dismissed it as an accident for one of the subcontractors.

He probably wouldn't have told you even if you asked.

Due to something involving Choi Tae Young,

someone was poisoned by mercury,

and due to something involving me, that person's daughter died.

But...

Do you know what I'm thinking of right now?

"My Seo Rin..."

"won't be in danger anymore."

It's not over yet.

Let's reveal the truth.

- It's nice to see you here. - Hello.

- How have you been? - I've been good.

- Nice to meet you. - Hello.

- It's been a long time. - Yes.

I heard about the good news.

Mr. Choi is coming out.

- There he comes. - Yes.

You're all here.

I'd like to thank all the executives who trusted me and came here today.

It's time for the beginning of a new era for TL.

Of course there are risks.

There will also be resistance.

But the path for TL and myself is clear.

I will cut out all the wrongdoings in the past.

Please trust the reformation I'm about to make,

and join hands with me.

Let's have a toast.

The laborers of a subcontracting company protested.

TL sold off equipment that had flaws...

Who took that article off the wall?

If it weren't for me, this wouldn't be another bust.

Who is it? Tell me!

- It wasn't me. - Me neither.

It was me.

I heard the president protested together, so I failed to...

Fine, it's my mistake.

From now on, call me "Mr. Huh Min Ki". Come on.

You little...

I can't reach the reporter.

In order to find out what exactly happened,

and how TL covered this up,

we must find the two people who participated in the protest.

Ms. Byun, you should...

go and investigate Mr. Kim's last place of work.

Okay.

The rest can investigate people around him.

Yes, ma'am.

Darn it, how did I miss this?

They are releasing messages related to TL...

(They are releasing messages related to TL...)

There was nothing special today.

(There was nothing special today.)

Nothing special...

Mr. Jung.

Go meet our contact at the UDC tomorrow.

Find out what they're up to,

and report to me how they've changed their minds.

(UDC, Global Inspection Agency That Leads Innovation)

This is Detective Lee Min Ki of the East Police Station.

The last place Kim Yong Deok was seen was a homeless shelter...

- near Yeongdeungpo. - Yeongdeungpo?

Yeongdeungpo.

Hello?

It turns out there are a few men who remember Kim Yong Deok...

near a homeless shelter in Yeongdeungpo.

But when you ask something to guys like them,

they tend not to answer easily.

Yes.

It's near the center in Yeongdeungpo?

Why don't we go together after we're done here?

That's fine. I'll take care of it on my own.

Okay.

(Pharmacy)

It's an elder man with Parkinson's disease.

Do you have any supplements that's good for his health?

Will this do?

Oh, yes. Also,

do you have something healthy, looks cool,

cheap, and comes in large amounts?

- Sorry? - You don't have anything like that?

- Hello. Have some of this. - What is this?

It's good for your health.

Hello.

Have some of this.

- What about me? - Of course, here you go.

- What is this? - This is very good for your health.

Try it.

Hello.

Give me 10 bucks.

10...

Who are you?

Why do you care? Give me 10 bucks.

Do you know me?

I'm very busy right now.

Ma'am. Here.

You punk. Stop being so cheap.

Give me 10 bucks.

10 bucks isn't real money anymore.

You look normal enough. Why are you so cheap?

Ma'am. Try planting a tree. Money doesn't grow from it.

And you shouldn't be so rude about other people's money.

I'm extremely busy right now.

Please leave, ma'am.

You jerk. Who do you think you are?

You don't know me.

What do you take me for?

Tell me. Why am I a "ma'am"?

- But... - Tell me.

I was just trying to be polite...

since you're older...

I mean, it's because I know nothing about you, miss.

What did you just say? Miss?

Say that again.

Miss.

Me.

You punk. Scram, kid.

I went easy on you.

Nice!

Nice.

Nice.

- Hello, sir. - What?

- May I ask you something? - I've cut ties with him.

- Go away. - I've cut ties as well.

- You put me in a bad mood now. - But sir...

Darn it.

The man next door was always mumbling and stuff.

He had a few screws loose.

Did anyone visit him?

About 8 or 9 years ago,

I went over to bring him some kimchi stew,

and he was arguing with some man. They were yelling and screaming.

I remember.

They were fighting about some sort of compensation.

Let's return the compensation,

cancel the agreement, and fight again.

At least one person needs to live.

I refuse...

to protest.

You moron! That's why you're always the victim!

You're the moron! What power do you have?

Think about Yang Hee.

You need to send her to college.

Darn it.

What's wrong?

Are you surprised I came myself instead of Mr. Jung?

Yes.

Why are you hiding it?

I'm not hiding anything.

Do you feel guilty now?

Because you worked with him?

I've felt guilty for years.

Ever since I first met you.

I feel so guilty toward UDC.

You're taking the correct path.

If you side with the powerless, you'll just suffer again.

Side with the powerful.

I can't do it.

Is that right?

So that's the limit of your sense of responsibility.

I understand.

- You may stop then. - Thank you.

We'll keep this a secret.

Oh...

What's going on?

Ms. Gong.

What's going on?

This is Mr. Ko. He's been giving Oshem...

information that we needed.

Don't scold him too much.

I'm sure he couldn't even feed himself...

after suffering mercury poisoning.

The nation didn't help him,

so I did.

Don't go.

Hey! Sung Kuk!

Mr. Ko.

Say something.

It's the same as 10 years ago.

How are you unable to persuade your own friend?

It's harming TL's image.

I told you before every protest.

You need to prevent them.

- Otherwise... - Otherwise?

Will you send in thugs again?

- I can't do this then. - No.

You need to take responsibility until the end.

Moh Sung Kuk!

Yong Deok.

What... What are you doing here?

Why are you with that rat?

No, right?

You... No, right? Right?

Please leave quietly.

I won't tell...

the team members.

A mercury poisoning victim's matter was resolved successfully.

The machine is defective and leaks mercury,

so we must dispose of it.

Yes, of course.

Sir. I apologize,

but I must report something to Mr. Choi.

Dr. Moh.

What's the problem?

Show some respect.

This is a company.

Yes, that's why what I need to say is important.

I handled the matter successfully,

and it won't be considered an industrial accident.

However, the machines can be used for 10 more years.

Rather than disposing of them,

we should send the dangerous machinery to contractors.

Hey, Sung Kuk.

What if problems arise later? What will you do then?

People will line up to be TL's contractor.

We can sell the machines at cost.

If we solve the underlying problem,

we can drastically lower TL's industrial accident rate.

As an occupational health doctor,

I'm telling you...

the most certain way to provide safety to TL.

Outsource dangerous processes along with faulty machines...

and make them take the responsibility.

Will that resolve the root problem?

Yes. Then there will be no industrial accidents at TL.

Are you positive?

You.

Give me that.

Here you go.

(Report)

Do as he says.

Follow the doctor's recommendation.

Why aren't you answering me?

Yes, sir. We'll do as you say.

Let's grab some food together.

- What's your name? - It's Moh Sung Kuk.

What's your title?

I'm just an occupational health doctor at Oshem.

(Director Moh Sung Kuk)

What were you thinking?

Those machines should be disposed of!

It's up to Jeil Industry now.

It's not TL's problem.

Doesn't it even make you feel guilty?

Should I be ashamed of doing what's best for the company?

Even if they are subcontractors,

you know very well for yourself what could happen...

if they get mercury poisoning!

Mr. Ko, why are you still here?

Please give this to him.

Everyone, I've been...

receiving money...

to report the UDC's situation to Moh Sung Kuk.

I'm sorry!

Mr. Ko.

I knew it.

No wonder Oshem was getting in the way for everything!

I still can't believe it.

Aren't we here to do good things?

Did he really need the money?

That's enough. He must've had his reasons.

Still...

How could he act like a spy?

(Anti-dementia drug)

Where are you going?

Sit down. It's all right. I have to go soon.

Here. Take this.

I don't think what you did is bad.

You can get tempted. We're only human.

You're not in good condition, either.

My father was also sick because of an accident at work.

Goodness, it cost a lot.

I know how it feels.

Take this back. You won't feel any better...

just because you return this.

It was hard-earned money.

Go and splurge without leaving any behind.

Ms. Gong.

Have a seat.

Have a seat.

He was a friend from the orphanage.

We were practically brothers.

Then we both got sick,

and when Moh Sung Kuk said he would give us settlement money,

I had to agree.

We have to get compensation.

Darn it...

Aren't you going to send Yang Hee to college?

You can't leave her to live like you and me.

We have to be the last ones to suffer.

That's why we need to keep fighting.

He had a daughter...

named Yang Hee.

She was such a good student even when her father was sick.

She got a job as a researcher at TL Chemical.

She was the pride of the family.

Yong Deok and I weren't thrilled,

but we couldn't be picky.

But not long after,

she died.

She committed suicide from depression.

Yong Deok couldn't hold out any longer.

He had severe paranoia and resentment towards TL.

"Revenge"? Wake up!

Why would they kill Yang Hee?

Are you going to waste your life resenting TL?

What did you get from fighting them six years ago...

when you had mercury poisoning?

Nothing!

You and I mean practically nothing to them.

Even if I'm nothing,

I'll have to get revenge before I die.

Just forget about it.

If you don't want to end up homeless and dead,

just forget about and get a job!

They'll have to suffer the same.

Yong Deok.

They'll have to suffer just like how Yang Hee died.

Just the same!

Yong Deok.

I'm going.

I shouldn't have left him.

I shouldn't have...

taken the money in the first place, either.

I shouldn't have...

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Ms. Gong.

No, we're sorry.

Ms. Gong, I'm sorry.

It's not your fault.

It's all my fault...

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

This sucks.

Why do the innocent have to apologize?

It's me.

Come over to Huam-dong.

This way, ma'am.

Dad.

What's going on?

I'm busy preparing for a conference.

Why don't you...

give up your studies?

What?

The time has come.

Dad, I'm not competent enough.

Take your time to learn.

From me, the other executives,

and even Moh Sung Kuk.

What about Tae Young?

It's you.

Hello?

Min.

Most importantly,

handle those under you with extra care.

Give them rewards from time to time...

and put your trust in them.

However,

never trust them.

Where do you think?

I'm in the pathology room.

I'll be there soon.

(Do Not Shake)

Darn.

What is that sound? Goodness.

Oh, my gosh! Min Ki, is something wrong?

Il Sun, what's your favorite type of food?

Why is that important? Is something wrong?

Tell me! What's your favorite type of food?

5, 4, 3, 2, 1!

Roast duck! Eel! Abalones!

Okay.

What just happened?

Darn, that jerk. I'm going to...

He needs to take his medicine.

I never imagined Mr. Ko would do that.

This is why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover.

He pretended to take care of cats with that kind face.

What does this have to do with cats?

But he did help us out a lot.

Yes, but still...

Wait. Why are you taking that down?

We've decided to stop investigating the mercury poisoning case for now.

What do you mean?

Chief, why so suddenly?

This is the least we can do for the last victim.

This was Mr. Ko's last favor he asked us.

(Roasted Duck)

(Roasted Duck Restaurant, Saori)

You punk.

Why do you keep wandering around near me?

Ma'am.

I have...

a long story too.

I'm a doctor.

I'm a doctor, but not just a regular one. I work at UDC,

and we do Epidemiological Surveys...

Epidemiology?

I know that field well.

You must've been conned by some fake doctor or something.

You know, those shamans that pretend to be doctors.

That's the worst case ever.

They make you give them all your money...

and before you even know it, you're paying them more.

You poor lad. You look perfectly fine,

but you're just a stupid homeless man.

- No, it's not that... - I get it.

We all have stories here to tell and our own issues.

But it's been a while since I've seen someone as pitiful as you.

Here. Drink this and forget everything.

This is what life is about, you know. Bottoms up!

You seem like a pretty bright kid.

Ma'am, thank you.

Here, have some eel.

Thanks.

Everyone, look at me.

This guy here...

is my brother from now on.

Get along well with him.

If any of you give him a hard time, I'll kill all of you.

- Welcome! - Welcome!

Welcome!

You'll adjust here in no time.

Is it because of all the dust?

- This is just... - Are you okay?

- I'm fine. I'll eat this. - No, let me take a look.

- What? Look at what? - Let me see.

Take a deep breath, and exhale slowly.

Oh. I don't hear any abnormal crackling or wheezing.

It's nothing to worry about.

Your throat may go temporarily dry due to the weather or environment.

So please,

drink a lot of water instead of alcohol.

My goodness, you're so smart.

Oh, gosh.

Cheers.

Your food is here.

- Did you order two soups? - Yes, over here.

- Oh, boy. - Why did you come so late?

That guy looks homeless too.

Eat up.

Thanks.

This is to thank you for your treatment.

- Here you go. - But...

It's okay. You don't have any money.

Just eat it already.

Do you think I'm some beggar?

Just eat when I buy you food. You got it?

Yes, ma'am. Thank you.

Good, eat up.

Hey, how will you make a living from now on?

I don't think you're prepared yet.

Well, I'm thinking of begging on the streets...

You talk as if it's so easy.

Do you think it's simple to take other people's money?

Listen carefully to what I tell you.

You need a certain concept.

Goodness, I should be paid for providing counseling like this.

I'll give you a special lesson.

When you first met me,

that was my identity.

I never beg in front of anyone, no matter what.

And homeless people shouldn't be dirty like before.

We need to look neat and normal...

but what's important is, we need to look like homeless people.

But if you look normal on the outside,

who would think that you're homeless?

The smell.

It's important to hang out together.

The smell of homelessness...

isn't something that's made easily.

My identity.

Your face looks pale, and you have jaundice in your eyes.

You need to take care of your liver.

Just pay me a dollar for your examination.

What?

I just examined you, so pay me a dollar.

Are you crazy or what?

Come on, pay me a dollar. Just one dollar.

Fine, then.

Here. Are you satisfied?

- Where is Min Ki? - I haven't seen him all day.

All right. Let's take a look at the path TL...

and Moh Sung Kuk have walked in.

Factories started to subcontract their work since the 1990s.

After the IMF Crisis and by the 2000s,

it was expanded throughout most of the manufacturing factories.

Moh Sung Kuk picked out the industrial accidents...

or cases that had a possibility of becoming industrial accidents...

and subcontracted the work.

The late Mr. Son Yeong Gyun.

He worked at a painting factory for 10 years.

He caught leukemia, and it was accepted as an industrial accident.

The next year, a subsidiary of TL Technical...

subcontracted Mr. Son's work to someplace else.

TL Steel. There was an argon gas explosion.

The laborer died on the spot.

After that, they subcontracted the repair and maintenance work.

Of course TL's industrial accident rate dropped rapidly.

To 30 percent.

They just switched categories and deceived everyone.

How could something like this happen?

What can we do? The current law allows them to do it.

Even if an industrial accident occurred in the same factory,

they were part of a different company on paper.

It worked out good for them in the end.

"Great job." The government even gave them an award.

They're like the Silent Cartel.

People are dying continuously, but the ones on top don't care.

Lastly, this is a case you all know about.

TL Metro.

After installing screen doors,

they subcontracted the management work.

As a result,

a young man we know died at the age of 20.

There's no solution.

The law allows the employer to avoid responsibility.

They take home huge profits,

and they should take the same amount of responsibility.

But they just take the profits and pass on the responsibility.

Moh Sung Kuk is deeply involved in all of this.

He made all the loopholes to avoid the law.

As a result, TL's profits are getting bigger and bigger.

Let's grab some food together.

- What's your name? - It's Moh Sung Kuk.

Thanks to you, we overcame our deficits for the third quarter.

Mr. Moh.

Thank you.

This is on me, so you can enjoy!

He was really good. We don't have to worry about him making a living.

I like your concept too.

- Let's drink! - Okay!

- Cheers! - Cheers!

By the way, isn't it about time we clean out Mr. Kim's spot?

I mean, it feels kind of creepy,

and we don't have enough space.

No one wants to sit in his spot either.

I understand his situation, but it's too uncomfortable...

- Shut your mouth! - Oh, gosh.

Everyone's always trying to get rid of us all the time.

We shouldn't be the same.

He's dead anyway, so just leave it.

We should remember him at least.

Did something happen?

Well, there was a guy named Mr. Kim.

He seemed sick all the time, like he had some disease.

I don't know what his issue was,

but muttered to himself all day long,

and said things we couldn't understand.

He must've been really ill.

I don't know.

I didn't see him around for quite a while,

and I heard he died.

There were some bad rumors,

and some people even said Mr. Kim was killed.

I felt so sorry for him, and as a way to pay our respects,

I told everyone not to clean out his spot.

Gosh, you did something very admirable.

It's here.

This is the spot Mr. Kim used.

(TL will kill me.)

"TL will kill me."

- The results are out. - Okay, let's start the meeting.

Where on earth is Min Ki?

Let me see.

Min Ki is here.

Why do you look like that?

What happened, Min Ki?

You little punk. Where in the world have you been?

Ms. Byun, report him as an absence without leave.

I already did.

My gosh. What is this smell? It smells like pickled fish.

- Il Sun. - What?

I found a critical piece of information at the homeless shelter.

My homeless friends told me.

What did they say?

That if Kim Yong Deok died, it's probably murder.

What do you mean?

"TL will kill me."

Kim Yong Deok was the president of TL Display's subcontractor.

His life was ruined due to an industrial accident,

and he was fighting TL until the end.

If TL really chased after him and kept records all that time,

Mister.

his death may really be a homicide.

(We thank Lee Jeong Eun for the special appearance.)

(Epilogue)

Back then, he really believed that it was another family.

It's her.

After graduating high school,

he was proud of his daughter for getting a job at Samsung.

I was so happy, and whenever I met my friends,

I told them my daughter got a job at Samsung...

and bragged to them numerous times.

However, his bragging turned to self-blame...

less than two years after his daughter entered Samsung.

At the age of 21,

Yu Mi was diagnosed with acute leukemia.

I threw up everything I ate and felt tired all the time.

(Video before Hwang Yu Mi's death)

And I also felt dizzy.

They said there was something wrong with my blood...

and told me to go to a bigger hospital.

I went to a bigger hospital...

and was diagnosed with leukemia.

The cause of her disease was unknown.

The only proof was the fact that her co-workers also died...

from the same disease.

She had to resign from work,

but before that,

the company asked her to tell them anything she wanted to say.

So she requested for workers' compensation insurance.

They said, "Are you really thinking of going against..."

"this huge company, Samsung, and trying to win?"

The company said she was their family member at first,

but a sick employee wasn't a family member anymore.

Another family.

When they received Yu Mi's letter of resignation,

they promised to compensate 50,000 dollars,

but they only brought five 100-dollar checks...

and said that was all the money Samsung had.

They told me to take it or leave it.

He had even given up his work as a taxi driver,

and he had no choice but to accept.

After taking that money with a devastated heart,

on the way home after his daughter's treatment,

he never imagined...

that it would be the last day he saw his daughter alive.

We were on the highway and I looked back,

and Yu Mi's eyes were red...

and she was gasping for breath.

So I stopped the car next to the highway...

and opened the rear door.

But she had already stopped breathing.

I started crying like crazy too.

21 months after starting work,

at the age of 21,

and after fighting her disease for 21 months, she left like that.

There was only one thing her father could do.

I promised Yu Mi that I would find the cause...

of her disease no matter what.

From that moment, he became David, fighting Goliath.

Politicians, the media,

and even the labor union had turned their backs to this case.

Samsung claimed we wouldn't be able to find anything.

That there would be no proof.

They claimed it was confidential information...

and said it would be difficult to obtain any information.

And we didn't know how a semiconductor factory...

could be hazardous at all.

Since no one would dare go up against Samsung,

they told me to go ask elsewhere,

and no one listened to me.

They told me to bring an official letter that she caught leukemia.

Then they would broadcast it.

However, he didn't give up until the end,

and people started joining him on his lonely struggle.

The safety management leader of the semiconductor company...

told me he'd pay one million dollars,

and asked me not to do anything.

Not to meet any reporters,

nor anyone from social organizations.

12 years passed like that.

Her father became a warrior on the streets,

and after a long fight in court...

and dispute regarding the epidemiological survey,

he finally won the battle.

Cleanroom garments were a symbol of that place.

How could an occupational disease occur...

at a place without even a speck of dust?

The fact that it was a disease that was found...

at Samsung, which was...

a conglomerate that had exclusive rights and power...

was one of the important reasons why it took so long...

to reveal the truth.

Just like a small ivy growing over a high wall,

a poor taxi driver from Sokcho...

went against the oppression and tyranny of a conglomerate...

and finally revealed the truth.

Because she was a poor and powerless laborer,

this case wasn't solved for over 10 years.

It breaks my heart.

We sincerely apologize.

Although he kept his promise to find the cause of her disease,

His daughter is no longer here to thank him and rejoice.

When I'm driving around in my taxi,

I often see Yu Mi's friends.

I think about how...

she would be married...

and take her kids around like them,

living a happy life if she were still alive.

Since he has many other...

daughters and sons to defend instead,

he promises himself that he would never stop...

and drives the taxi which has his daughter's last breath...

in order to fight for a world where all workers...

are treated like family.

Regarding their death.

We need to make them take responsibility.

It's good to hear that they're dead.

They got divorced three years ago?

That's when Kim Yang Hee's case happened.

What is it that you want to hear from me?

What happened three years ago.

They had an unknown respiratory disease since three years ago.

We can use the public to terrorize them if a virus goes around.

Is Sung Kuk in?

Sung Kuk!

We're practically family, aren't we?
