(TL will kill me.)

(TL will kill me.)

Yes, Mr. Huh?

Do you still have Kim Yong Deok's bible?

- Yes, I do. - Could you check that for me?

Remember when I told you it may have been murder?

I think it's true.

I just found out that...

Kim Yong Deok escaped from a psychiatric hospital.

I think he tried to leave a hint for someone...

as he was being chased by TL.

One moment.

Which page did you say it was?

Page 184.

It's ripped out.

Is there anything else?

No, there's nothing.

That can't be.

That's the Book of Leviticus.

How do you know that?

I'm a devout Christian.

Do you remember what it says here?

One moment. Gosh...

"Anyone who injures their neighbor..."

"is to be injured in the same manner."

"Fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth..."

Leviticus 24:20.

"Eye for eye, tooth for tooth."

- The threatening letter. - The threatening letter.

The middle part...

is from Leviticus 24:20.

If this indicates numbers...

What's left...

is "J".

That could work, too.

Then, cross out the "J" and...

2, 4, 2, 0, 1.

2, 4, 2, 0...

seven.

Let's say it's either one of them.

This number indicates...

The CAS Registry Number.

Yes. The chemical substance number.

Il Sun! I found it!

Min Ki!

How did you find out?

- You know? - How did you complete it?

- Your senses? Your intuitions? - No!

- But wait... - Yes?

Doh Joong Eun. Where is she?

She went to go see him.

Again?

I found it.

It's a good thing it didn't take any longer.

This is the toxicity test results for the PHIT...

we were able to find during the search and seizure.

They're all marked as "appropriate".

Even the inhalation test results...

are marked as "appropriate".

So?

The results were all fabricated.

And Moh Sung Kuk was involved in it.

Are you sure about this?

The researcher in charge was Kim Yang Hee.

I don't know if you remember,

but she must have run the animal experiment alone.

It wasn't suicide due to depression.

Ms. Kim.

Congratulations on your job at TL Chemical.

Thank you.

I heard you already got your project.

- What is it? - Oh...

Is it confidential?

I understand. Go on.

- All right. See you. - Sure.

Let's hang in there, all right?

How are things going, Ms. Kim?

The results need to be out by next month.

You can't keep asking for mice.

Sir, we need a pregnant one.

- In order to test the toxicity... - Hey.

Aren't you part of TL now?

You need to do what the company says,

not the school.

Take it easy.

You're going to use the humidifier?

If I want to see the proper results of the humidifier...

What are you...

Just...

put a drop on their noses. Okay?

The deadline is next month.

Good luck.

She must have handled it on her own without any support.

No one would have questioned a project...

requested by TL Chemical.

Wait a minute.

That's just the circumstances.

Her father, Kim Yong Deok,

was locked away in a mental hospital.

Who do you think locked up someone suffering from mercury poisoning?

Moh Sung Kuk...

destroyed Kim Yang Hee as well as her father. No. Actually,

he destroyed all the families that used the humidifier disinfectant.

I'm not trying to appeal to your sympathy.

I'm asking you to see the truth, which all the circumstances...

are pointing to.

Okay.

I'll see what I can do.

Tae Young.

What are you planning?

You'll find out soon.

Recently found evidence...

shows that they tested a drop of the product...

under each mouse's nose instead of proper clinical trials...

to determine whether or not it could have toxic effects on the lungs.

We're speculating that the company...

wanted to speed up the process to meet the deadline for the launch.

I heard the vice chairman of TL has launched an internal investigation.

He is determined to right the wrongs.

We haven't seen any corporate heirs do this in the past.

Professor Park,

who led the toxicity test, should be held responsible.

The company also needs to find out who was in charge...

of product development and hold the person accountable.

- They should quickly... - Dad, stop watching it.

- You need to take your medication. - Okay.

Pass me the water.

Does it really have nothing to do with TL Group?

Did you really launch the humidifier disinfectant knowing it's toxic?

Mr. Yim, we heard that you were involved in it.

Please tell the public the truth.

The truth will come to light soon.

I didn't know anything.

- It's a total disaster though. - Another comment, please.

- Is there anything you want to say? - Please say a few more words.

- Tell us the truth! - How did this happen?

- Tell us! - Another comment, please!

Do Yoon, let's eat.

I made egg rice, which you love.

Here.

You're so good at it.

Here.

It'll be too salty if I put in more.

Then I'll add just one more spoonful.

The compression's been taken care of, so go ahead and push.

- Push. - Push.

- Calm down, please. - Keep breathing.

(1 Missed Call)

Mr. Kwon.

What brings you here?

Why bother coming here?

You shouldn't drink anymore.

You already drank a lot.

You can...

just leave me alone.

Why would you...

care about someone like me?

Do you know why Do Yoon ended up like that?

Because of TL?

No. It's not their fault.

It was all me.

It's my fault.

This idiot right here.

With this very hand,

I...

I killed my wife and my baby, and now...

Every night, I poured that poison...

into the humidifier...

and killed my wife and my baby.

Those who manufactured it should pay for what they did.

Mr. Kwon.

You should just trust me and get some rest now.

How can I trust you?

You're trying to destroy TL with your own two hands.

We must pay the price unless we want the company to go bust.

I will run TL my way.

Min will run the entire company from now on,

so just focus on assisting your sister.

Why Min and not me?

Because you will destroy TL.

No, you're wrong.

I am simply trying to save the company...

from this big rut.

I know that you're planning to do...

exactly what Joong Eun did three years ago.

Know your place.

Just do as I say, like you did back then!

Like I did back then?

No, I don't want to.

(Application for Divorce)

I'll do as you say.

I'll...

divorce Joong Eun.

If I don't, you'll destroy her.

I beg you.

Please don't stomp all over her and destroy her life.

(Application for Divorce)

(Consent to Terminate Custodial Rights)

Now, it's my time to shine.

The world has changed, and TL will change as well.

How dare you!

This time, I will oust you.

Please take care of your health.

Yes.

It's me, Choi Gon.

Yes, sir. It's me, Choi Tae Young. Right.

I'll see you tomorrow, then.

Tae Young.

What is the matter with you?

I'm trying to do what's right. What's the problem?

Do you realize what you're doing now?

Min.

Take your hands off this. Don't get too involved, please.

You're still my sister, you know.

I do not have a brother like you.

(Prosecution Service)

Tae Young.

I want you to tell me everything you've been hiding from me.

I'm not hiding anything from you.

I know that you've been in league...

with Moh Sung Kuk.

I also know what you guys tampered with...

while developing the humidifier disinfectant.

Do you think he or Min can get you out of this mess?

I'll hold a press conference tomorrow and make everything public.

Tell me.

I just met with the prosecutor-general.

Confess everything to me.

Then,

you'll get out of this unscathed.

(Kim Yong Deok, Kim Yang Hee)

Tomorrow, I wish to keep the promise I made...

three years ago.

(Kim Yang Hee)

(TL Vice Chairman Choi Tae Young's Press Conference)

(Apology for the Humidifier Disinfectant Tragedy...)

(and TL's Preventative Efforts)

Mr. Choi.

The prosecution summoned you due to...

accusations that you destroyed evidence...

related to the toxicity of the disinfectant.

Please cooperate.

The company has been hiding this all along.

Do you admit it?

- The FSS... - It dropped by 7.1.

- Among them... - The budget for next year...

Gosh, you're giving me a headache.

All right. Stop changing channels.

- According to... - Let's just watch this.

Mr. Yim Kook Shin, the CEO of TL Chemical,

Vice President Choi Tae Young deliberately left out...

the animal testing results and expedited the launch date...

even though he was warned about PHIT's toxic effects.

- We will thoroughly investigate... - What is happening?

how all of this happened,

and I will personally make sure...

to radically change TL to prevent such tragedies in the future.

On behalf of the entire TL Group...

All the mice died.

PHIT...

is dangerous.

If we don't do anything about this,

the humidifier disinfectant will kill so many people.

You think...

the mice died because of PHIT?

They died because of the virus that causes infectious enteritis.

Or maybe the stress from...

Forget it. Just come up with something else, whatever it is.

This is your last chance.

(Toxicity Studies of TL's New Substances)

If you don't postpone the launch,

I'm going to go public with this.

- Ms. Kim. - I'll tell everyone...

that you knew about the dangers!

And I will tell the whole world about the deal...

you made with Professor Park.

First, calm down and hand it over.

Give me that.

Help! Help...

Be quiet.

(Researcher Kim Yang Hee)

Hello?

It's me. I...

I need you to come here immediately.

There's a dead body I need you to take care of.

Hurry. Please hurry.

(Chairman Choi)

Yes.

Were you the one who sent that letter?

Are you the one who sent that letter?

It wasn't you, right?

You knew everything all along, Dad.

Why?

Why did you do such a thing?

You also know the answer to that.

Dad.

Dad!

Dad! Are you all right?

Dad. Kook Shin!

Dad, Dad.

Kook Shin, call the doctors right away.

Dad...

(1 New E-mail)

You said you'd keep your promise.

You kept me waiting until now,

Choi Tae Young.

(From Choi Tae Young)

If you can't get in touch with me because something happens to me,

go to my office.

you'll find something helpful in my safe.

The password is...

(The Epilogue)

Ms. Doh, I hope this message finds you well.

Do Yoon is doing great, thanks to your concern.

(Labor Union Leader Kwon Joon Il)

(Documentary produced by Park Joon Woo)

Everyone said it was a miracle that he survived.

He couldn't sing along to his favorite song,

and he couldn't even cry audibly when he was whining.

Why are you crying?

Oh, no. My goodness.

Say, "Please." Then I'll give you this.

"Please." Say, "Please."

Just a year...

after he took his first breath as a newborn,

Seong Jun lost the ability to breathe on his own.

Just after his first birthday,

I took him to the hospital because of cold symptoms,

but he ended up spending 5 to 6 months in the ICU.

The doctors made a hole in his neck...

and gave him a breathing tube.

He could come home after spending 11 months...

in the hospital.

He was three when he was discharged.

It was after his birthday.

From eating to talking,

nothing was easy for him.

What did you eat?

You ate meat?

Thumbs up.

Yes, thumbs up.

- The daddy bear is chubby - The daddy bear is chubby

It was only when he was eight that they found out...

the humidifier disinfectant was the culprit...

behind the tragedy that left such a hole in his neck.

We strongly suggest that you immediately stop using...

all types of humidifier disinfectants...

that are currently being sold and distributed.

Let's live a healthy life. Humi-Mate!

It was a dangerous invention...

that was unprecedented in the world.

It was the country...

that allowed the company...

to sell the products to the people.

It was a license to kill.

Stores aren't meant to sell products...

that are dangerous.

That means the country allowed them to sell it.

Currently, there is no law where the country can help...

the Ministry of Environment regarding the damage.

In place of the country, the victims went all the way

to the England headquarters of the company...

that sold the product at their own expense...

in order to hold them responsible,

but nothing changed.

(It has been 4 years, but Reckitt Benckiser refuses to admit it.)

Do you know what they said when I called them?

They told me that they never wanted to hear from me again.

We asked you to help us.

You haven't taken any measures for the victims.

All that has changed for Seong Jun...

is that the hole in his neck has been closed up...

and now has an oxygen tank connected to his nose.

They closed it up after 10 years.

They closed it up, and he breathes through his nose now.

What I'm worried about is...

when he catches a cold.

Our noses get stuffy when we catch a cold.

But he won't be able to breathe if his nose gets stuffy.

I never ever intended to insult any of the families...

The man slaughtering company...

that shamelessly maintained its stance...

and the irresponsible country that turned away from the victims...

made their heart grow stiff...

along with their lungs.

Our country is a place that doesn't take action until a crisis occurs.

I really felt that through this incident.

I wondered if the country would finally take action...

if I sacrificed my life and it became an issue.

They were given a penalty only after eight years,

and the death toll amounted to 1,421.

There were more than 6,000 victims in total.

He shoots! And he blocks it.

And each day...

is a suffocating one for the victims.

He is already 17 years old.

However, the world outside his bed...

is still a dangerous place for Seong Jun.

There are a lot of things I'd like to do.

I want to go watch a soccer game.

When I take my oxygen tube out, I'm going to travel...

or go somewhere with my friends.

For the last 16 years,

it would've been just as suffocating for Mi Ae.

Mi Ae's oxygen tank...

is Seong Jun.

Let's see.

There were so many moms who lost their children.

It may be hard for me,

but I can watch him grow. At least I can smile.

It seems like the country that should put in...

a majority of their effort to guard even a minority of the people...

(Humidifier Duty)

only protected the minority which was the corporation,

even when they harmed a majority of the people.

The tragedy...

is not yet over.

(Doctor Detective)

I will do it.

I will restore TL to how it used to be.

What can you do when you're in here?

Do you want to know how much I can do while I'm here?

We need to find it before they do something about it.

Then you should help the sick old man.

You're a doctor.

Excuse me.

Even the rubber gloves are annoyed.

Look at what they're doing.

We need to be fully prepared so that they can't escape this time.

I know what you're thinking.

So you're going to work with Choi Tae Young to get rid of me?

Are you Seo Rin?

I can't find Seo Rin!

How pretty.
