I'm leaving,

but I hope the new anchor

won't have the same regret as I did.

Let me introduce you News 9's new anchor

who will succeed me.

Hello, everybody. I'm News 9's new anchor.

-Zoom in to the anchor.
-I'm Kyung-jun Park.

I'll do my best to deliver
accurate and unbiased news.

Damn it!

It's all because of Baek-jin.

ANNOUNCEMENT

THREE-MONTH DISCIPLINARY PAY CUT
FOR BAEK-JIN KIM

I'm surprised.

I thought you'd stay home after
hearing the news about your punishment.

You look fine.

I heard you lost by one vote.

If you hadn't applied,
this wouldn't have happened.

I know.

You even stole my team's script.

-What?
-You did it all in vain.

Are you suspecting me?

I'm not suspecting you.

I'm sure you did it.

You're afraid of nothing
since you got disciplined, right?

You're messing with me, right?

I'm telling you to stop.

I don't know who in my team
you're using as your spy.

But don't get my people's hands dirty.

If you want to screw me over, just do it.

Don't coerce my people behind my back,
like a coward.

Did you say I got
your people's hands dirty?

It would make a cat laugh.

Who decided to proceed with
the Sungjong Church case? It's you.

Hyun-tak,

and your writer.
You made them all end up like that.

You were dancing with your sword,
too absorbed in your power,

and you stabbed your own members.
Do you realize that?

You don't care as long as you're in
the spotlight, but what about the others?

No one will welcome your people
if they find out they've learned from you.

Think straight.

It's you who is ruining Argon
and its members.

How many more lives should be ruined
for you to be satisfied?

EPISODE 6

How could Baek-jin lose?
Most of the reporters voted for him.

Thanks to the dirty fight
between Director Yoo and the psycho,

Mr. Park won by default.

Is this a good thing for us?

Obviously. Things will remain the same.

Let's have a meeting.

-Okay.
-Okay.

Since the elections just ended,

we can air special editions
on the elected until Wednesday, right?

People are sick of their success stories
and you want to air them for three days?

We can, not only talk
to the winners of the elections,

but also talk to the losers.

We can look into the losers' lives.

When people don't even
want to see the winners?

Until when will you
depend on me for the items?

When will you stop taking the easy way
by following the trend?

-I'm sorry.
-Seung-yong.

Statistics Korea announced the data
on single-person households.

The number of such households
increased 0.6 percent over the past year.

Among a total of 1,919,000 households...

-So, what is it that you wanted to say?
-Pardon?

I told you to be clear
and just get to the point.

While you mumble those numbers,
the rest of us get distracted.

You present a lot of data
because you are not confident.

If so, who would believe you?

-Min-ho. Is this yours?
-Yes.

"Bribery in the medical world?"

I'll deal with the collusive ties between
hospitals and pharmaceuticals

in depth.

This has no depth.

Pardon?

It is a common issue handled
by all the other channels.

It's an ordinary item
with a safe conclusion.

Do you know that all of your items
are boring?

-I'll hold it pending.
-Who said you can?

You're giving up because I criticized you?

Do you have no persistence
to follow through your item?

Until when will you be relying on me?

You're not trained at all
to make your own report.

What do you have your brains for?
Did you leave your brains somewhere?

I'm sorry.

Bring an item that could run
at least five minutes by tomorrow.

-Yeon-hwa.
-Yes.

We need to talk.

I knew he's a psycho,
but he is really sick today.

He's taking out on us
because he got screwed over.

The psycho has evolved
into a super-psycho.

How far have you worked on Midtown?

I was going to receive the documents
about the licensing.

Receive them?

Receive them from someone else?

You should've gone there
and found something.

How could you just sit back
and wait until now?

It's not like that.

If you work like this, you'll be labeled
as a mercenary forever.

Do you understand?

I'll keep that in mind.

I'll pass it on to someone else if you
can't get another fact this week. Okay?

You can go now.

Mr. Shin, please get up.

Please get up now.

You've been here for days.
Why are you not working?

You're not here to sleep.
It's not a sauna.

Stop bugging me, you jerks.

What is this moron doing here?

Cheol, what the hell are you doing here?

My juniors can't even rest here
because of you.

Come on, I couldn't even come in here
to take a rest when I was a junior.

You're causing such an inconvenience.

Stop! Please stop bothering me!
For God's sake!

I'm getting off work in a while.
I thought we could go grab a drink.

I'm going without you.

My goodness, wait for me.

HYUNGSEOL TIMES

Why are you staying here all the time?

Aren't you too old
to do something like that?

-Aren't you going to go to work?
-If I do, I might kill somebody.

You said you're going to buy me a drink.
Where is the booze?

-I should stop by one more place.
-Gosh, I can't believe it.

My shift is over after that.
We'll drink then.

-Where are we going?
-A daycare center.

Do you have a child?

A kid died at a daycare center.

It's obviously a cot death.

There's little to investigate,
but the mother is too persistent.

I'll go there and just wrap it up.

I'm not following you then.

It's a drama about the world of reporters.

But I think we are focusing
too much on romance.

The characters are not working
and are only involved in romance.

Besides, the heroine is a rookie
at the bottom rung of the ladder.

How could she date
the big boss right away?

I think it doesn't sound realistic.

Don't you know that
the male lead is always better off?

You may not know about this
since it's your first drama.

Dramas are totally different from reality.

Who would watch a drama
if it's the copy of reality?

That's why people disparage medical dramas
as night-duty love stories

and legal dramas as hallway love stories.

-Ms. Yook.
-Yes.

Shall we talk in private?

Sure.

How are you doing?
Is something bothering you?

No, I'm fine.

I'm trying to think in a rookie's
perspective and enjoy my work.

"In a rookie's perspective"?

You are a rookie, Ms. Yook.

Yes.

Okay.

So, tell me, Ms. Yook.
What do you think is your role here?

It's to tap into my experience
and give an edge to the drama.

Being older and more experienced
can be your advantage.

But it makes your colleagues
uncomfortable.

I want you to do easier tasks first.

Yes, ma'am.

What? What is this place for?

A daycare center.

Wow, kids today have
better lives than we did.

-Am I right?
-Haven't you been here?

Why would I come here?

Right. You've never had a kid.

Cheol, wait over here.

I'll see the principal just for a while.

I'm feeling dizzy already.
It's killing me.

Hey, let's just leave now.

-No.
-Please.

Come on, it's my work. I have to work.

Don't be fooled, everyone.

A person is in there.

Come here.

Don't go.

Come here.

Take it off.

Come here.

Stop there!

Come back!

Gosh, those rug rats.

He tortures me just like his mother.

It's hot.

She should've hired a babysitter
instead of a writer.

-The principal looked so distressed.
-How could she not be distressed?

If a detective comes here like that,
people will know that a kid died here.

I think this place will close in no time.

He had diarrhea when he first came here.

We thoroughly check what kids eat here.
I think the mother fed him something bad.

Did you call an ambulance at once?

Of course I did.
We passed a sanitary inspection

and had everything else checked.
We had no problem.

I see. You have a surveillance camera
in the facility, right?

Let me watch the tape.

-Go!
-Wait.

Didn't you say a kid also died
in the daycare center

where you worked before?

That's right.

The kid also had diarrhea for days
and died of enteritis.

Gosh, this creeps me out.

I got goosebumps.

I found it!

-Gosh!
-Get it!

I caught it!

Hit it!

Hit it!

Cut it out!

That's enough!

Hye-ri?

It will back up our refutation
in the Sungjong Church case.

We will emphasize that
the note you made on your script

was not a malicious private comment,

but it was a professional one
for the program.

We can't be sure until the first trial.
But things seem pretty good for us.

Okay.

JIN-HYUNG KIM

What is this?

He'll take care of Argon from now on.

He's a competent one.
You can count on him.

What about you?

Thank you for asking.

I'm sought after from too many places.

I still believe that I did my job.

I have no regret.

But,

please tell Ms. Yook that I'm sorry.

It's not your fault.

It's me that made things this worse.

I'm the team leader.

But I let my team be torn apart to pieces
and took it out on the innocent members.

I think...

you are way more mature than me.

Baek-jin.

Thank you for everything.

Baek-jin, I don't think
you're a nasty person.

When you burst into rage and yell,

is not out of hate.

It's out of concern.

Just give them a hug,

and they'll be just fine.

One more thing, I'm not mature.

I'm tired of pretending to be mature.

Soo-min.

Take care.

Don't get in trouble.

Okay. Bye.

Blacklist of cultural figures?

Why would you bring up a year-old issue?

How about dealing with
Y Group's illegal gift?

It was broadcasted three weeks ago

on SBC's We Want to Know This.

Damn it.

How about you?
Do you have any good idea, then?

My item takes some time.

God damn it, you...

Stop it. Let's get ourselves together.

Didn't you hear Mr. Kim?

Let's not try to bring items
depending on him

but make our own news reports.

We don't have Mr. Cheol Shin
or Ms. Hye-ri Yook.

-Whom is he impersonating?
-Will you clean up

the old devils of Argon with me?

My goodness, people come first.

He's good.

He's really good.

Let me.

-Open up.
-Are you nuts? I won't drink it.

Tilt your head back and open your mouth.

We're not here for a sauna.
You sweating like a fountain.

Open up.

Come on.

-Shoot.
-Open.

Gosh.

How have you been?

Why would you ask someone
who just got fired?

Who said you were fired?

You quit Argon on your own.

Don't say you were fired.

You are so considerate.

Are you here to do some research
for the drama?

Let's just say that's why.

Are you also here to do some research?

On the child's death?

How do you know about it?

I overheard the teachers talking.

They were saying a similar story
that was posted on Argon's website.

Was there a post about a kid?

I mentioned it in our meeting,
but you said it was unsubstantiated

and rejected it. Remember?

I guess, it has been about two weeks.

In a daycare center in Mangwon-dong,
this one in Guro-dong

and another one in... I don't remember.

Anyways in two or three daycare centers,

a mysterious informer wrote
that kids died from the same reason

and is urging us to investigate.

Really?

-What?
-Shoot.

-Leaving already?
-You go mind your own business.

Gosh, it's so embarrassing.

At least answer my calls. Okay, Hye-ri?

As it turns out
that Mr. Kang was hit by the car,

the case is taking a new turn.

The police arrested his wife immediately

for aiding and abetting a murder.

Mr. Jung, who was the driver

and having an affair with his wife

-Last sentence.
-was arrested

-for murder.
-Anchor.

A widow lost her husband
in a sudden accident

and people around her felt bad for her.

However, it was revealed
that she abetted her lover

in killing her husband.

What could make this woman
commit this crime?

Nam-gyu Park investigated the story
in A Widow's Adultery Diary.

Did you leave just for that?

She led a quiet life
and didn't socialize much.

-Those who remember her say...
-Goodness.

Look at what situation you are in.

In the neighborhood, we thought of her...

My goodness.

They're broadcasting it in the end.

She looked like such a quiet person.

I can't believe it. I really can't.

Good work.

VIEWERS OPINION

It was the worst broadcast ever.
I was so disappointed.

Thank you.

-Thank you, everybody.
-Thank you.

Thank you.

-Thank you.
-Good job.

Sir, aren't you coming?

What?

Right.

I'm coming.

I never realized
how big the studio is before.

Do you think this is big?

-Min-ho.
-Yes?

-Come up over here.
-Okay.

Have a seat.

Excuse me?

Sit over here. It's okay.

-No, I'm okay.
-Just sit.

Yes, sir.

Oh, right.

You were right.

This place is bigger than I thought.

It was small when I looked from outside.

I'm sorry.

For what?

For today's broadcast.

The viewers' responses are way worse
that I expected.

I was so afraid of a cancellation
and prepared things too rashly.

-Min-ho.
-Yes.

How long have you been working for Argon?

Five years, sir.

I see.

It's about time for you
to sit at the desk.

What are you talking about?

Sit up straight.

Okay.

You look nice.

Your strength and weakness
is that you're too responsible.

You don't have to
carry everything on your shoulder.

We are a team.

Yes, sir.

-Min-ho.
-Yes.

You have a good sense of balance.

You listen to people
without any prejudice.

So, everybody wants to rely on you.

I hope you keep
your good sense of balance.

Sir.

Don't press on our guys too much
during meetings.

Give them clear pointers, okay?

Okay.

Just don't be like me.

Understood?

I'll get going.

What are you doing?

Well...

Sit down.

Goodness.

-Is something not working out?
-No. It's nothing.

What do you think are
the virtues of a reporter?

Virtues?

A reporter needs to care about people

and question conventional wisdom.

A reporter also needs to have
an insatiable curiosity

and always think about why and how.

Lastly,

when you have a doubt
you must not let it go.

So much are asked for.

I know.

It seems like...

you have one of the virtues.

Find out what it is.

Thank you.

Hello.

Who is this?

Excuse me. Did you call me a while ago?

He's there.

Thank you.

Mr. Shin.

Sir.

Mr. Shin, you should go home now!

Are you awake?

-How much is it?
-Hold on.

Here, can we have...

Gosh! The bill, please.

Are you all right?

The bill, please.

What? Why am I here?

God, my head hurts.

Why am I here?

Yeon-hwa.

Hey, Yeon-hwa.

Did you bring me here?

Oh, you woke up.

I don't know your address, so...

You should've just left me on the street.

Why would you bring me here?

I'm sorry.

Damn.

Have you seen my shoe?

-No.
-No?

Goodness, I found my shoe.

When will you come back?

I'm taking a leave.

Have you contacted Ms. Yook?

I find it quite offensive for you
to mention her name.

Her dismissal was canceled.

Please tell her about it.

We always lock the stable door
after the horse has bolted.

Still, you can't take back what happened.

You broke the heart of your colleague
who you've worked with for ten years.

Does it make any difference
if you say something in court?

You're doing that
to ease your conscience, right?

-Cheol.
-I won't return until Soo-min is dead.

That's it.

Our team will have a hard time
if you don't come back.

We may as well cancel
our broadcast right now.

If you're not coming to the office,
at least bring your item.

I'm your senior.

Don't order me around.

Your tone is getting on my nerves.

-Sir.
-Sir.

-Mr. Shin?
-Where are you going?

Come on!

You guys call that a broadcast?

It made me so embarrassed.

Put some effort into it!

He needs him so bad.

Now that the two are at war,
our team is a mess.

Mr. Shin! Wait!

-Come on.
-For Christ's sake.

Why are you keep calling
and following me like a lost kid?

We barely made the broadcast yesterday.

Without you two,
we have too big of a blank.

Still, how could you make
such a shitty broadcast?

I'm sorry. But as you know,
I can't fill your place alone.

I don't want to make another bad broadcast
in the name of Argon.

Help me.

Email me the items you are working on.
I'll check them out.

Text me if something special comes up.

Thank you.

-Go now.
-Let me see you off.

Just go. I'll just take the stairs. Bye.

-You can take it now.
-Just go.

Jin-hee, come over here.

Come on, hurry!

What happened to this?

Did you change it as you pleased?

I'm sorry. I'll do it over.

-Do it again now.
-Jin-hee!

Hey, are you kidding me?
You got it all wrong.

I told you that the order of my comment
and Nam-gyu's have been reversed.

-Correct it. Take it.
-Jin-hee, look here.

-Do mine first.
-Jin-hee.

Excuse me?

Is there anything I can help with?

Did you really do a spell check?

-Yes.
-Anything?

Check the spelling again.

-Okay.
-Good.

Jin-hee, did you get
the interview transcript ready?

-I'll do it now.
-Come on, when will you get it done?

Gosh, that's why you should work
with an experienced writer.

We weren't short of time
when we had Ms. Yook.

You're right. Things are too hectic here.

Can't we bring Ms. Yook back?

Jin-hee, how soon can you do it?

-Jin-hee!
-Jin-hee.

-What happened?
-Jin-hee!

Is she all right?

-What do we do?
-Let me see.

Jin-hee, are you okay?

It's stomach cramps due to stress
and overworking.

I'll prescribe her some medicine.
She should stay here overnight.

Thank you.

Jin-hee, are you okay?

You should've said that you were sick.

You are busy.

You can go back.

Okay.

Get some rest.

This is quite a sight.

Until when will Nam-gyu stop
obsessing over adultery stories?

Is Jong-tae running all these items?

Min-ho must be pretty upset by now.

Aren't they looking at the comments
posted on our website?

Wait.

Two weeks ago?

VIEWERS REQUEST

Three kids died due to the same reason.
Please investigate.

Seung-yong, access our website
and find this message by a viewer.

It was uploaded two weeks ago
by an anonymous user.

Find out who wrote it.

But I'm kind of busy now, can I...

Hello?

Hello?

For God's sake! How could I identify
an anonymous informer in half a day?

Who am I, a hacker? Bill Gates?

God, I haven't even finished
editing my item.

Who was it?

It was Mr. Shin.

I'm back.

-How about Jin-hee?
-She's fine.

But I think she should rest
for a few days.

I'll take over her work.

Let me know if there's anything I can do.

Yeon-hwa, go to the editing room

and find out how long my item will run.

Yes.

Prepare the interview transcript for me.

-Yes.
-I'm sorry,

but will you finish up my script?

Yes, I'll do it. Let me take a note first.

I believe the winner will do a good job
on behalf of me.

How was the baby usually doing?

He was...

healthy.

He ate well and slept well.

He had diarrhea at times.

It wasn't serious.

But, since he went to the kids' café...

They said the cause of death
was necrotizing enterocolitis.

I just don't understand.

Do you have anything in mind

that could've been a reason
other than the kids' café?

No. He was born prematurely,

so I took great care

of what he ate and everything.

But the police

even suspected me of
feeding him something bad.

The whole world is crashing down on me.

By any chance,

have you written a message
on Argon's website?

Excuse me? What do you mean?

Did you ever write an online comment
on what happened to your baby?

No.

I see.

To Do List

I finished this one.

The script is done. This one, too.

I finished them all.

I made it.

It's way better
than being treated like dirt.

What's my virtue, by the way?

Curiosity?

My animal instincts?

INFORMER

Why didn't you call me earlier?

It's no use calling me anymore.

What? What are you talking about?

I'm quitting my job.

I'm letting you know that
I'm not working here anymore.

What the...

What the hell?

The phone is turned off.

FOOD RESEARCH TEAM

FOOD RESEARCH TEAM

TEST RESULTS

WOULD YOU LIKE TO
DELETE THE FILE PERMANENTLY?

YES

Mr. Jae-geun An.

Yes?

3 kids died due to the same reason.

I think you have mistaken something.

I didn't write it.

Are you sure?

I traced the IP address

to 1024-17, Dongjak-gu,
Sindaebang-dong, Seoul City.

You live in the neighborhood.

And I found something
about the name "anonymous."

You were born in 1978, right?

I combined "anonymous" and 78,

and it was your private email address.

About this message,

I think it tried to say something
important, but hesitated to do it.

What was that
you were really trying to say?

It looks like a joke to me.

I saw people making a joke
out of the death of a celebrity.

As far as I know, nobody makes a joke

out of a child's death.

I should get going now.

Could you stay a little longer?
I have questions to ask.

I have a presentation
for a new product release tomorrow.

Excuse me.

Mr. Jae-geun An.

You're late.

I finished work a little late.

Look at you, you are still awake, Ha-jun.

He won't go to sleep.

Oh, I almost forgot.

I got a call from the bank.

The mortgage loan period ends this week.

I know.

Are you sure your company is going to
guarantee the loan?

Without it,
we can't extend the loan period.

Don't worry.

I think I'll go change first.

Sure.

SUMYOUNG CHEESE PERFECT FOR BABIES
AFTER TRYING SUMYOUNG PLAIN YOGURT

There must be something
he's hiding from me.

Am I right, Jae-geun?

I have a presentation
for a new product release tomorrow.

Tomorrow? Tomorrow.

Nature Premium?

Where did I see it?

I know I saw it somewhere.

I'm sure I saw it. I definitely saw it.

The baby formula!

Right, it was the baby formula.

With Nature Premium Liquid Baby Formula,

there is no need to mix formula
with warm water.

It's packed in disposable pouches
for your convenience.

The use of chemical additives
was minimized.

It has more components
of breast milk and colostrum

This new product also contains
more DHA and probiotics

that help the growth of a baby.

I have a question.

We'll have a Q&A session later.

The reporter must be impatient.
Okay, please go ahead.

Thank you. I'm Cheol Shin,
a reporter from HBC.

The former version of
this baby formula was released

only six months ago.

Why did you upgrade it
to Nature Premium 2.0 so soon?

Our Nature Premium formula
was selling fast.

So, we're releasing a new product early
to thank our customers.

Do you, by any chance, have
any other reason?

Of course not.

We just wanted to repay

-our customers for their love.
-Please stop it.

One more question.

You said the use of
chemical additives were minimized.

Are you sure that's true?

Now. let's see the promotion video

-of Nature Premium 2.0.
-Answer me, please.

Please play it.

Here.

NATURE PREMIUM FORMULA

-What the hell are you doing?
-That's the question I want to ask.

-I didn't...
-Stop.

Don't say

that you didn't write it.

We both know too well
that you wrote the message.

Nature Premium has something
to do with the babies' death, right?

Your company also knows it well, right?

In Mangwon-dong, Geumcheon-dong
and Guro-dong,

babies who were less than 12 months old
died from the same reason.

You requested an investigation
regarding their death.

You knew at what specific neighborhood
each death happened.

Which means, the company
tracked the customers. Am I wrong?

The company found out there was a problem
after the product was released

and it conducted a self-investigation.

I can't say anything to you.

Mr. Jae-geun An.

You deliberately mentioned a new product
and made me come here.

You want to say something.

And I'm here to hear it.

Let's stop sizing up each other, okay?

Tell me. What on earth was contained
in your company's baby formula?

Did they move out?

A new tenant is moving in.
What is this mess they made here?

They have no manners at all.

The number you've dialed is not listed.

Please check the number and try again.

Su-young Han!

I gave her half of my salary.

What the hell do I do now?
I have to report to him by this week.

What do I tell him?

MIDTOWN CONSTRUCTION

It's empty.

There's nothing here.

Jin-hee, how have you been?

How's work?

Is it manageable?

I'm sorry

for leaving you behind in that hell hole.

I'm the one

who handed the script to Director Yoo.

What?

I was short of money at home

and bought some stuff
with the company money.

Director Yoo caught me.

He said he'd let it slide
if I help him a little.

He said I could keep my job.

I didn't know something like that
would happen to you.

Gosh, I had a lot on my mind.

You've just helped me
calm down the storm in my mind.

Thank you

for telling me the truth.

How can you just let it slide like that?

Aren't you mad for what I did?
Why don't you slap my face and be angry?

-Jin-hee.
-You are such a pushover.

That's why everybody pushed you around
and that's why you ended up like this.

Jin-hee.

Aren't you being pushed around, too?

Let's not be pushed around
and used by Myung-ho.

What? Do you have something to tell me?

Seo-u.

Do you want to take
a trip with me somewhere?

Why all of a sudden?

What about your broadcast?
You can't live without it.

I'm thinking of taking some time off.

What?

Did you get fired?

Why would I get fired?

Then, what's going on? You're scaring me.

I'm thinking of quitting
because I'm scared of you.

-Cut the crap.
-Come on, watch your language.

It's late. Go to bed now.

Let me give it a try.

Let me try. Let me fight to death.

When can I fix all of these?

Goodness.

All hell broke loose here.

This one has some letters I can read.

Oh, I can see. I can read it.

Mr. Jae-geun An.

Hello. Good evening.

You're going home quite late.

Please let me drive you home.

Honey.

Pick up a baby formula.

Okay. Come to the aisle.

I will.

Which formula do you want?

Aren't you supposed to buy this one?

This is your company's product.

What on earth are you doing here?

Whenever you choose
a baby formula for your baby,

don't you feel a tiny bit guilty?

Please stop doing this to me.

There is a report that analyzed
the cause of death

in the company, right?

Just hand me the report.

I'll absolutely make sure
to protect your identity.

There's no such report. Nothing like that.

If I'd had such a report,
would I have kept it until now?

If you don't act while you still can turn
things around, I'm sure you'll regret it.

I once made the same mistake...

-Please leave.
-What's going on?

Hey, nothing's going on.

Hello. Is she your wife?

Let's talk later.

Before, I owed your husband a big one.

I can't believe I met him here.

So, I'll see you later.

Please give me a call.
I'll be waiting for it.

-It's nothing.
-Okay.

-Ms. Park, it's about Moon-ju.
-Yes.

Let's say it's a woman.

Are we changing the sex? Really?

-The character is female from now on.
-Okay.

So, what happens to Moon-ju and Gi-a?

It's like this.

-There will be a romance.
-Okay.

It will be a romance
between the four people.

It involves Moon-ju, Yeon-soo and A-rin.

Hello.

Thank you for coming.

How's work?

Is it good?

Sure.

It's my dream job.

That's great.

What is that you wanted to tell me?

Your dismissal was canceled.

I went to the personnel team myself

and changed it into formal resignation.

You'll receive your severance pay.

Ms. Chae says

that she's sorry.

Actually, I should be sorry
for making you go through it.

Are you dying soon?

Why are you acting all weird?
It's awkward.

It's all my fault.

How come even
your apology sounds arrogant?

-What?
-Being hard on yourself

is also a kind of arrogance.

You pushed me so much
when I worked with you.

I was overwhelmed so many times.

To be honest, you made my work seem easy.

Because I could trust and rely on you.

Now, I just think about how heavy
your shoulders must be

because of us.

You are a good leader, Mr. Kim.

I can see it clearly now that I'm outside.

Thank you.

-Aren't you going to bed?
-No.

I forgot that I had some work to do.

Go ahead and sleep. I'll sleep later.

What?

Who was the man we met at the store today?

Nobody.

I'll sleep after finishing this.
Go to bed.

To. Cheol Shin

Thank you.

Hello.

Sir, this is Yeon-hwa.

A package has been delivered to you.

There's no sender's name on it.

Should I put it on your desk?

No, I'm going to the office right now.

TEST RESULTS

SUMYOUNG FOOD

Can we trust what's written in here?

If not, I wouldn't have brought it.

They put a larger amount of thickener
that helps babies swallow

than they indicated
on the ingredient label.

It caused inflammation in some infants.

It was a side effect.

Three babies died of enteritis.

The company knew
that their product had a problem,

but they didn't recall the product.

On top of that, it released a new product
by fixing the faulty one, right?

This is quite a big case.

Who wrote this document?

I promised the informer
to protect his identity.

What if the company denies this report?

Three kids died.

Do you think you can prove a causal link

with only three kids in court?

Will you believe after dozens die?

It doesn't matter
whether I believe or not.

It only matters
whether the viewers believe or not.

This report counts only 60 percent.

We need both proof and witness
for a news broadcast.

The report is not enough.

Wait a second.

An interview?

You said I only needed
to hand over the report.

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

I put myself at risk
by leaking the document already!

The report alone isn't enough
to land a heavy blow.

You want to see me die, right?

I said no.
Please don't report any news about it.

-Please destroy the USB drive.
-Listen, Mr. An.

If we give up now,
this truth will be buried forever.

Can you handle it?

What if you, no, we keep silent on this

and more babies die?

What if another baby dies?

Do you really think you can handle
the weight of the death?

If you say you'd be just fine,

then I'll give up on this case.

Everything is up to you.

Please...

think of kids.

Let's save our kids.

We can't let them die just like that.

MIDTOWN CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS

"A gift to the prosecutor at Tiffany.

A liquor box
with cash of 50 million won in it.

A thousand 50,000won bills
in four bundles.

Prosecutor Ki-jin Han
in Department Three."

I got you.

Please.

Please.

Hello.

I'll see you at my house
at seven this evening.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

-Good evening.
-Please come on in.

Thank you.

It seems like your family is not here.

My wife and child are staying
at her parents' for a few days.

I see.

Okay.

Thank you for accepting this interview.

Your company might punish you.

I can't deny it.

But I'll fight on your side until the end.

I will do everything
in my power as a journalist

to help you.

Okay.

May I start?

-Yes.
-Okay.

When did you first recognize
that the product had a problem?

It was three months after it was released.

A few customers who bought the product
through home shopping

called us complaining
that their baby had diarrhea.

The company launched
its own investigation.

Were you in charge of the investigation?

Yes, I was.

After getting the result
that their product killed the babies,

how did the company respond?

The company ordered the employees
to delete the result of the investigation.

Are you saying
that the company knew about the problem

but tried to cover it up?

Yes.

The bigger problem is that
they didn't discard the faulty products

but sold them at a lower price.

Did you have the report verified again?

Yes, I had it checked
by two private research labs.

And I had the same result
as that of the informer.

Sumyoung Food is
one of the top 30 companies in Korea.

They'd definitely file a suit against us
if we broadcast it.

We had all facts checked.

Both the evidence
and statement are strong.

Even if they sue us, I'm sure we'll win.

How many times did you
screw us over after being so confident?

Chief.

We got the permission.

Let's get started.

Yes!

Seung-yong, send me
Sumyoung Food's organizational chart.

Okay.

Good.

As always, you saved Argon.

Min-ho, come to my office.

Okay.

Jae-geun, the boss wants to see you.

Yes.

Is the tape ready?

Yes, it is.

If the interview takes longer
than expected, we'll kill an item.

Yes, sir.

Bong-gil, did you check the audio?

Yes, it's fine.

Everybody, standby!

Baek-jin.

I voted for Myung-ho.

We have the last commercial on air.

Let's go.

Five, four, three, two, one, anchor!

Hello, everybody. This is Argon.

Today, we have news
about the precious lives of babies.

When I fed her the new formula,

she suddenly got severe diarrhea.

I stopped feeding it to her,
and the symptom disappeared.

I thought it was due to the baby formula.

So, I called the customer service line
and filed a complaint.

They said sorry and sent me
a box of products. That was all.

As for the baby named Ga-on Park,

she died of necrotizing enterocolitis.

To put it plainly,
dying enterocyte caused inflammation.

Among the possible causes,
the thickener in the baby formula

could've been the culprit.

It must've been a hard decision for you.

What made you to come forward
with the information?

I'm also a father.

Whenever I bought
a baby formula for my baby,

I couldn't breathe.

The weight of pain isn't easily lifted.

The bereaved parents

suffer from their kids' death
because they don't know what caused it.

The researcher who knew the truth
but had to bury it

suffered from a guilty conscience

and exposed the truth.

But those that caused the sufferings

seem to feel no pain.

The company held a discount event
for the faulty baby formula.

Sumyoung Food
that is turning a blind eye to the truth,

seems to care more
about their excess inventory

and financial loss than the babies' death.

What if the company had recalled
all of the baby formulas

and apologized to the customers

as soon as they recognized the problem?

If the company had done so,
these babies might still be alive.

You did a good job, Cheol.

The company dismissed what happened
as a rare side effect

and tried to cover up the truth.

We hope they accept the responsibility
as soon as possible

and make sincere apologies.

We express our
heartfelt condolences for the victims.

I'm sorry, everyone. I'm late.

Bravo!

It was 9.5%,
the best ratings we've ever had.

Did you see the viewers' comments?

-There you go.
-Thank you.

All the other stations
are following up on our news.

Consumers' associations and NGOs
all published their statements.

And Sumyoung Food?

-They didn't officially respond yet.
-You did a great job, sir.

Come on, we worked on it together.

What's all the fuss? Good job, everybody!

Good work, everybody!

Thank you.

Good job!

Thank you for your work.

Will you join me for lunch?

-The Chief wants to buy you to lunch.
-I'm sorry I have an appointment.

You're meeting the informer, right?

Okay.

-You said you would treat us.
-I never said that.

-Cheol.
-Yes?

It's nothing. Have a good time.

Come here.

You're acting as if you're my wife,
but you are not.

Nam-gyu is buying us rib eye steak!

Rib eye steak!

Jong-tae Heo!

-Jong-tae Heo!
-Stop it.

Alright, fine!
Why don't you bring your entire family?

-Are you ready?
-Let's go.

Let's go eat.

That's ridiculous.

Let's go.

How about going that place?
Do you remember?

What place?

It was called... I'm sorry I forgot.

I think it was something else.

Mr. Kim.

I have something to report to you.
Do you have a minute?

-Is it important?
-Yes, very much.

You're onto something.

I think so.

No,

I'm sure I am.

Good job.

So, when can I...

Isn't it your day off today?

Are you all right?

Honey.

JAE-GEUN AN

JAE-GEUN AN

The report was rigged.

Please don't broadcast it.

What happened?

Someone must've died. Look at the blood.

CHIEF'S OFFICE

What's up? We have time till lunch.

Please assign me to another team.

I want to leave Argon.

-Did Jae-geun An commit suicide?
-Do you feel responsible?

You said you were confident.

How does it feel to kill a man with a pen?

It was edited

maliciously out of context.

They said the police confirmed
that he sent it himself!

They are mourning for Jae-geun An's death.

We should fire the responsible reporter.

That single text message banished
a number of truths

that we have found out and verified.

-You investigated the slush fund, right?
-How far do you know?

All I wanted was just to make a report.

Do you think such a person
should be a reporter?
