(Undiagnosed Disease Center)

He even threatened the UDC.

Our center is under a lot of pressure recently.

You're under pressure?

You didn't know?

Weren't you behind it?

I asked you if you weren't the one behind all of this.

I'm not. Are you satisfied?

What about Father?

Poisoning, blackmail, contract killing.

Discuss the rest with Choi Min.

Instead of wasting time with me.

(Undiagnosed Disease Center)

It's been 60 years.

No matter how much the government and the world change,

this too shall pass by.

Why?

Because TL has no labor union.

No. TL is already rotting.

We need to change.

If TL collapses,

we'll be humiliated not only domestically, but even abroad.

Do you know why TL became number one?

You probably don't know how this empire was built.

This business is all about making money.

Why are you worried about unnecessary people?

This is the limit to those who can't become number one.

Mr. Choi. With all due respect, TL is family.

A family must follow the orders of the breadwinner, and...

the breadwinner must protect his family.

TL boasts its high salaries and welfare system.

Forming a labor union between family members?

How pathetic would it be if others find out about it?

Mr. Moh. Are you kidding me?

How dare you bring up such vulgar logic?

You're the one who's ruining TL with the chairman on your back!

Having no labor union...

is TL's old tradition and our strength as well.

As of today, I don't have a son.

Don't think of doing anything...

and leave...

immediately without asking.

I can't stand the sight of you.

It's too late.

The Labor Union Committee will make an announcement soon.

- Then TL will... - About that...

There's no need to worry.

I took care of the labor union issue.

I believe...

things will be wrapped up by now.

Took care of? How?

Moh Sung Kuk, you...

(Let's unite and establish a TL Labor Union!)

Are you okay? Oh, no.

(Conduct an epidemiological survey!)

(TL should approve establishment of a labor union!)

(Approve the labor union!)

What happened?

What happened here?

Choi Tae Young.

You jerk...

It's all over!

It's all over because of you!

No.

It's not. I...

The documents. Where are the documents?

You really don't know?

They took everything.

Now, we don't have anything left.

No...

How could...

Tae Young.

Joong Eun. This is...

Was this the plan from the beginning?

It's a misunderstanding. I didn't know either.

You didn't know?

The only ones who know about this place are you and me.

You decided today's meeting, time, location, and members.

No. You just notified us unilaterally.

Saying you had someone you wanted to introduce.

But it just so happened that you couldn't make it today,

and this place was attacked.

I can explain everything.

The documents you gave us.

The data on TL group's corruption.

Their crackdown on the labor union.

They already knew where those documents were.

Will you still deny it?

Let's talk after you've calmed down.

You should go to the hospital first.

Why didn't you just kill everyone?

Why didn't you just do what TL is so good at?

Yes, Seo Rin.

Me too.

I miss you so much too, Seo Rin.

- But... - Seo Rin, who are you calling?

Hello? Seo Rin.

Mr. Ha!

Hey...

I hope Ms. Doh and Mr. Huh...

get close to each other again.

She wants to get closer to me?

She hopes to get closer to me?

Gosh, I'm so sweaty...

Did someone turn off the air conditioner?

(Moh Sung Kuk)

Darn it...

Gosh...

(Identification Card, Ko Young Gil)

Mr. Ko?

Hello, ma'am.

You dropped your wallet, Mr. Ko.

Oh, thank you.

- I should be more careful. - I didn't take any money.

Sure, ma'am.

Sit down.

Just tell me what you want, ma'am.

Fine, go ahead and be formal.

Because I won't, ever.

Stop it, already!

Do you think we have a chance against Oshem?

Pick on someone your own size.

Aren't you ashamed, Moh Sung Kuk?

A statement...

will also be sent from the Economic Association and Enterprise Alliance.

And we'll begin to put pressure before the legislation is revised.

At this stage, it won't be difficult to close down the UDC.

You jerk... What did you just say?

Hey, Moh Sung Kuk!

Class 1 of the Department of Occupational Safety and Health!

That's enough.

The police, prosecution, court, Industrial Complex,

and Ministry of Labor will also be in on this.

So just pretend to give in and follow suit.

Goodness... What are you saying?

Gosh, do you really think I'd let that happen?

Think of it as a win-win situation.

Then I'll let you carry on with the survey without investigative power.

So...

you want me to send an official note...

and give you time to clear the site?

Just like it's usually done.

I dedicated...

20 years of my life for this,

and you want me to give it all up?

Just go with the flow and don't stand out.

Everyone's struggling to save the nation's economy.

Figure out a way to survive...

and find justice another time.

All right.

It's Bukang CNC.

Hye Mi's last workplace. It's in Baekseok-dong.

CNC means they cut things.

What do they cut?

If it's that neighborhood, I'm sure they deal with cellphone parts.

I think I know what caused her to go blind.

(Undiagnosed Disease Center)

It's methanol.

The coolant that's used to reduce the heat produced by CNC machines.

I'm sure they're using it in place of alcohol.

It's much cheaper.

If only we knew sooner.

We would've been able to detoxicate the methanol with alcohol.

The companies nearby could still be using it. We need to investigate.

We can prevent any further problems.

Stop the chit chat and let's go.

Min Ki, we should at least report it to Ms. Gong.

When will she get back?

Right. That was your pet theory.

The Fatalism of Industrial Health.

Minimal intervention, which doesn't go against the mainstream...

is the principle and fate.

Give me a call when you've thought about it.

We're always open-minded.

Sit down, we haven't finished talking.

I know you're lying.

Is it because of Doh Joong Eun?

Are you afraid of her, for some reason?

Has she gotten ahold of your malpractice?

Am I right?

Is that why you're following us?

That's funny.

Go on and tell me. I'll report it to the media.

Il Sun.

Don't get me wrong.

This wasn't up to me.

The top executive ordered this.

Chairman Choi Gon.

We've decided not to investigate this case.

What? Are you serious?

What do you think you're doing?

The Center for Industrial Accident Prevention will work on it instead.

Why are we leaving it to them when we can take the case?

I don't understand.

They don't even have search and seizure rights.

Why would we back off all of a sudden?

Why are you sparing yourself?

Hey, are you not going to listen to me?

I won't. Let's vote.

Put your hands up!

Be quiet. You'll obey my words and not vote.

You rude jerks...

Is she out of her mind?

Why is she being so bossy?

Stop it, already. Can't you tell?

The top executives are pressuring her!

What does that have to do with anything?

It's all my fault.

Go back inside.

I'll do whatever I can.

Stay out of this. Spare yourself.

I said, spare yourself. Are you going to go against me?

Joong Eun.

What is it that you want to say to me?

Is it because of President Lim of Chemical?

Or is it because of my brother?

No.

I want to get to know you better.

You're too talented to be wasting it on studies.

I'm not interested in business.

Director Moh,

don't you trust...

my brother and my husband?

TL needs someone like Chairman Choi.

You need to get prepared for your father's sake.

This may be presumptuous of me,

but this isn't my personal judgment, but Chairman Choi's...

Your father's wishes, as well.

We should meet up more often and discuss things.

And catch up with each other, too.

But...

Look.

Let's say it's methanol.

It can't be the first time they used it.

So why is it causing problems now?

It's this. SL5.

This was a huge hit. I heard it's popular overseas, too.

You're right. If they want to keep up with the orders,

they'll have to keep all the factories in full operation.

And all the subcontractor's factories, too.

Oh my gosh, it's methanol!

It surpassed the threshold!

Shouldn't we go inspect right away?

They would've gotten rid of it. Plus, if we act too hastily,

things could get riskier for us.

Let's just make a move, then.

We'll ask the Ministry of Labor to go on an inspection.

After the inspection,

they're going to relax and bring out the methanol.

That's when we will come in.

It'll take time to write an official note, so let's just call Ms. Gong.

No. Let's do this in secret.

That's the only way we can get them for sure.

Gosh, what are you doing? Quick! Hurry! Hurry up.

You guys, what are you doing? Hurry up and move these!

You guys at the back too. Move it.

There's no time to slack off. We need to move these quickly.

Yes, move them over there.

My goodness.

(Ministry of Employment and Labor)

Gosh, it's so hot.

Let's get this done quickly. Come on.

- You received the notice, right? - Yes, of course.

We'll take a look around.

Yes, by all means. These are CNC machines.

We take aluminum... We enter the data into the computer first...

Yes, I know.

Not many things here are done by humans.

- It's safe because we use alcohol. - Yes, I said I know.

Why is it so hot in here? And it's so noisy too.

- This isn't methanol. - Really?

We're done here. Let's go.

Wait! Let us treat you to lunch.

Thanks, but maybe next time. It's just too hot.

- Have a safe journey back, sir. - All right, thank you.

(Workplace Injury and Illness Prevention)

We're from the UDC.

Who was in charge of the inspection of the CNC factory?

It was me. How can I help you?

We came in person as it's an emergency situation.

Please share the results with us.

We obviously know how to handle things. Why do you need to see it?

- Give them the report. - Yes, sir.

(Summary and Recommendations for Improvement)

Everyone at our center went out today.

The 3 teams visited 12 sites in total.

We thoroughly inspected every site,

and the result is... It was alcohol.

Are you sure?

If you think it's necessary,

we can send the entire team to 50 more sites all week...

No, we can inspect 100 more sites.

No, that's okay. Thank you for your help.

Let's go.

(Safety Check Log)

Yes, they left.

They won't inspect us again.

We should use it up.

We'll be sure to meet the net quantity. Don't worry.

(Safety First)

Where did everyone go?

Ms. Suk, you have to make sure Il Sun stays put tonight.

Okay, got it.

Ms. Suk, don't wait for me. You can just call it a day, okay?

By the way, what happened between you and Mr. Huh?

Has the search warrant been issued?

The court hasn't responded yet.

But can we really do this without telling Ms. Gong?

Yes. All is good at the office.

Okay, thanks.

She just fell asleep, so be quick.

And ask them to cooperate first if it's possible.

- Let's go. - See you later.

We're from the UDC!

We're here to inspect your occupational environment!

We kindly ask for everyone's cooperation!

What? The UDC?

Stop the machines!

We have a case...

where the victim seems to have been exposed to an organic solvent here.

We'll measure the levels while the CNC machines are in use...

as usual.

You use methanol as a coolant, right?

What on earth is this about? We work so hard day and night.

Who says you can barge in like this without an official notice?

We are following the law.

Article 43.2 of the Occupational Health and Safety Act.

"A business owner and employees shall fully cooperate..."

"with an epidemiological inspection, and shall not reject,"

"interfere with, or evade such inspection without good cause."

- If not, you can be fined... - Get out this instant!

This is against the law. You should've sent a notice first!

How could you pull this in the middle of the night?

Gosh, seriously.

You sure love paperwork.

We have a search warrant. Here.

All right.

Show me the warrant.

Mister, we're not supposed to show this to just about anyone.

This is considered trespassing and obstruction of business.

We'll show you the warrant after our inspection.

How many times must I explain this to you?

- You folks are driving me bonkers. - Just a moment, okay?

Oh, the police are here.

(Police)

- Over here, Officer. - Hello, who called the police?

- Me. I did. - What's going on?

They lied and acted like they were from the prosecution. Arrest them.

Hey. My gosh, Detective.

- The Human Rights Commission? - You've been well, right?

- You remember them, right? - Let me see the warrant.

What on earth are you doing?

- Gosh. - Darn it.

Sir, this is just a blank piece of paper.

See? What did I say? I totally knew it.

Gosh, what were you thinking?

You over there, what are you doing?

I'm going home.

Our plan failed because we didn't have dinner.

Had we eaten something before we went,

we would've had enough energy to get it done,

and we would've been able to secure the evidence, methanol.

Right, Min Ki?

Mr. Ha, I heard you tried to flee the scene all by yourself.

Well, that wasn't my intention.

Isn't it odd though?

Whenever people heard that we're from the UDC,

they used to get intimidated and be on their best behavior.

All right. After we finish eating all this,

- we should go back there. - No.

We shouldn't.

At the moment, there is nothing we can do.

I don't appreciate what you just said, Ms. Doh.

That's our reality.

No, look. I'll tell you what the reality of our situation is.

At the hospital over there,

there's a girl who's just over 20 years old.

She was hit by a car, and she's very ill at the moment.

She's even lost her vision,

so she's stuck in her bed.

You see, that's...

That is the reality of our situation.

Min Ki, you didn't need to bring it up.

The accident could've been prevented.

Had I arrived at the scene even just a few minutes earlier,

I would've been able to prevent the accident.

Enough! Beating yourself up won't change anything.

But I couldn't prevent it,

so shouldn't we at least punish those jerks?

I mean, wasn't the UDC founded just to do that?

We can do it. Am I wrong?

Jin Hak, let's go.

Let's go back there and grab those jerks like this.

Let's go, Jin Hak.

- Okay. Let's go, Min Ki. - Let's go!

- Jerks! - We're coming for you!

Enough, both of you!

Sit down.

This is why I told you to ask for their cooperation first!

Let's just wrap up here.

I'm off.

Fine, leave!

I don't need any of you, you cowards.

I will...

take care of it on my own.

Darn.

What?

If you just keep your mouths shut like that,

I can't understand you!

Even you, Il Sun.

All you do is worry about the higher-ups.

How can they just sit there and just say no?

What can we possibly solve then?

You too, Ms. Byun.

Mr. Ha, you should be ashamed too!

Why?

Why? Why can't we do anything?

(Dr. Huh Min Ki. Thank you.)

Hye Mi.

(Doctor Detective)

I'm so relieved.

I was worried you'd gone blind.

Happy birthday to you

I'm so happy, Ms. Doh.

The only way is to sneak inside.

We'll act as a married couple today.

Honey. Do you understand?

- Hey. - Honey. Shut up and let's go.

This is insane.

It's like they were working while inhaling toxic substances.

You should've taught him he was in danger.

We won't be able to prevent an industrial accident!

The government is allowing us to screw our own laborers...

and even encouraging us by providing legal grounds.

We should grasp that opportunity. Let's become number one.
