BLOOD FREE

Don't tell me you…

Come home this instant.

SON

It's nice to meet you. My name is Woo Chaewoon.

Can I help you?

I've been waiting for you.

I have something to tell you regarding a request made by the prime minister.

EPISODE 9

Your father probably only told you

that he was going to stop by a base that used to be a battlefield.

And you tipped off your ex-husband.

I apologize. You neither tipped him off nor confided in him.

You just didn't think much of it.

You were married for 40 years. It was normal to talk about such things.

They were the two people you were closest with. Your father and husband.

All you did was tell your husband,

but dozens lost their lives as a result.

You already assumed that it was his doing,

so you divorced him.

That's my conclusion so far.

Please tell me if I'm wrong.

You're wrong about everything.

I lost a fellow soldier to that incident.

Is that so?

I'm sorry to hear that.

I made a vow beside his lifeless body

that I would punish whoever was behind it.

If it really wasn't Chairman Seonu,

I beg you,

please tell me that I'm wrong.

Because I need to go

and fulfill my promise.

My son didn't put you up to this, did he?

There's no way he would have.

You can check with him.

Did you send him here? Did you really tell him about it?

Is that what he said?

That I told him that?

I only told you about it, so if it wasn't you…

I hope you talk it out with him.

"Talk it out with him"?

What are you trying to get out of this?

I want you to find peace.

I know you did it for me.

So tell him the truth for my sake.

-Jae. -The ministers are waiting for me.

I'll call you back later.

Mother?

Don't turn it on.

What could it be this time? What did my father do

for you to be this upset?

Did he find true love instead of a fling this time around?

I'm going to kill him.

That'd be a waste. You've put up with him for so long.

Mother.

Mom.

Did he hit you?

Did he?

I think it was your father.

I think he was behind it.

What did he do?

I wanted to divorce him…

Mom.

…and I was gathering proof.

I'm sorry. It's difficult to get a good photo due to the tight security.

I wanted him to be flustered

and put him in a predicament for once.

It'd never be public though…

since I'd be humiliated as well.

But that man

never ceased to be brazen.

And that's what you saw on his phone?

When did you first see "TATP"?

Was it before or after the attack?

I can't remember.

Are you sure it was TATP?

You are one crazy woman!

How could you say that to me?

I get that you're shocked, but still.

How could you accuse me of trying to kill your father?

I saw it. You can't fool me.

That's exactly why you're crazy.

Yes, I did look it up.

The media was talking about how the explosives were made with TATP,

so I was curious.

My father-in-law was injured.

Should I not have cared

about the explosives that hurt him?

You've always looked down on me. Do you think I didn't check the date?

It happened before the attack. Before my father was injured!

Were you able to foresee the future? Is that why you looked it up beforehand?

Who looked down on you?

You're my wife. Why would I do that?

But you do!

You have no respect for me.

That's why you never bothered to hide your many affairs.

Hey, what chairman doesn't have affairs?

And none of the wives claim that they're looked down on.

You're only insecure because you think you deserve special treatment.

Don't try to change the subject.

It was you. You were behind the terrorist attack!

Exactly when was it?

Give me the exact date you looked through my phone.

Give me proof.

I saw it!

Proof!

He said that I had gotten the dates wrong due to the shock.

The more I listened to him,

the more he convinced me.

Now, I don't know if I looked through his phone

before or after the terrorist attack.

Do you often check other people's phones?

No, I told you. I was going to file for divorce.

So you did that even after the attack?

Your father had lost his legs, but you were still

gathering evidence for your divorce?

I--

It's more convenient to distort your memory.

If you checked his phone after the attack,

that means your ex-husband didn't target your father

and you didn't cover up for the culprit.

It was for your son.

You didn't want your son…

You're busy.

…to have a father who took dozens of lives.

Did that make you feel better?

Will everything be okay if I put this behind me?

TATP is often used for terrorist attacks.

But most people have never heard the term before,

except for two types of people.

Those who suppress terrorism and those who cause it.

And you already know which side…

the chairman took.

Before.

It was before

the terrorist attack.

Are you almost here?

Where are you?

I'm sorry.

We should move on.

I'd like to meet Chairman Seonu's ex-wife.

Were you really…

So, you knew everything.

Father!

My son didn't cover up his father's sins.

He just refused to believe me.

You told him about what you saw on his father's phone, didn't you?

But he didn't believe me.

It's only natural since it was his father.

So Jae is innocent.

BLOOD FREE

Who are you?

Hello, I'm…

My name is On San. I'm from BF.

I'm sorry, but…

What more do you want from us? Should I jump off a building too?

Get lost.

I'm sorry. Please excuse me, but--

Even animals have a conscience.

You didn't even come when my brother died. I'm going to call the police.

I did visit the funeral hall.

I'm not trying to pat myself on the back.

That's when I saw you.

That's why I'm here.

One of our employees died. He was murdered.

Uh, and we believe his killer knows you.

So what? Are you accusing me of murder?

No, that's not what I mean.

Do you perhaps know a woman named Jeong Haedeun?

Here. Simply put, she was an accomplice.

And I think she knows you.

Unbelievable. Are you seriously accusing me?

We definitely don't think you had anything to do with it.

Hold on. Then-- Here.

Do you recognize this man?

-They were both in on it. -What?

You know him, don't you?

How does a BF employee know our pastor?

Pastor?

I see. So, that was his cover.

What do you mean?

Can you reach him?

What do you mean, it was a cover?

Because he's a murderer.

What nonsense is this?

Can you reach him? I'm sure you couldn't for the past two days.

Maybe he's busy.

He killed a man and fled.

Ma'am, where does he live?

EULJUNG POLICE STATION KIM DONGJIN

MYEONGSEON HOSPITAL

Mother.

Hey, Jae.

How is he?

I heard he was hospitalized last night.

Yes, he woke up later in the night.

You should've called me instead of dealing with this alone.

He doesn't know that you knew-- No.

He doesn't know that I told you.

And let's keep it that way.

How are you feeling?

Did you eat?

You need to eat to recover.

Captain Woo.

-Should I call him? -Yes.

What is that?

Painkillers.

He suffered from severe back pain all night.

Thank you.

Right. Are you not busy?

I have some spare time.

Grandfather.

Grandfather.

Why did you want to see Captain Woo?

Is he here?

Bring him.

Grandfather.

You have something to tell him, don't you?

-Forget it. -I'll relay your message.

Forget it. Just…

Just sweep it under the rug, Captain Woo.

To live is to suffer.

You should find peace too.

The more you uncover, the filthier it gets.

So just lay it all down.

Don't you want revenge?

You finally found out who was behind it.

How would that boy feel

if he found out it was his father's doing?

Your grandson?

It must've been eating away

at his mother too.

I'll find peace once I die.

No.

You must take back what you deserve.

It was your lifelong goal,

but you had to step down just because of your legs.

Not a single politician defended you.

And you founded that party.

Grandfather.

Grandfather.

I'm sorry.

Are you leaving?

Okay.

I'm afraid you can't visit him today.

Has it been restricted? By whom?

No one restricted it. The inmate refuses to see you.

In that case…

…could you give this to him?

You were a victim too.

You only learned of the terrorist attack after the explosion occurred.

No!

You only realized after returning home that night

that your family was in danger.

- Hands up! - I'm the terrorist!

You returned to the base before midnight

and turned yourself in.

"I'm the terrorist."

No, no, please don't. N-Not my fam--

I'm the terrorist!

"I'm the terrorist."

"I'm proud of it."

Please don't.

You said you were proud.

No!

You forced yourself to say that even though you were terrified.

The terrorists already knew that the president was visiting.

And they targeted you since you had access to the base.

Was it someone you already knew?

A villager, perhaps?

That note.

You said you knew who I should be afraid of.

You don't, do you?

Why would you think I don't?

Because I think the terrorist was a villager?

But they're not the mastermind.

Even you don't know

who was behind it.

They wouldn't have revealed it to a mere scapegoat.

Seonu Geun.

DORSON Group's owner.

You must know something about him,

even if it's the first time you've heard his name.

A lead that points to him or something you overheard or witnessed. Anything.

What if I could protect your family?

What if I could guarantee their safety?

Will you talk then?

My gut feelings tell me this is our last chance.

You'll be behind bars forever,

and I'll be in my own prison.

He told me

to be even more tight-lipped when I went to Korea.

He said I couldn't break free from him.

"Him"?

It was my cousin.

I accidentally told him one time where our barracks were.

It was over some drinks.

He's my cousin, after all.

I told him where the barracks were.

The command center's location?

He said I wasn't safe in Korea either.

He said the most powerful individual in Korea was behind it.

And that he was the wealthiest.

If I did as I was told,

both my family and his would live comfortably forever.

So your cousin told you

that the mastermind was Korean and forced you to take all the blame?

I recorded our entire conversation.

Do you understand?

But I won't use this until you let me.

We'll meet again very soon.

VISITATION ROOM

Hey.

Hey.

Hey, wake up. You're not here to nap.

Ms. Jeong.

She has a pulse, but she's not breathing.

Maybe she's faking it.

Yeongsil, when did Jeong Haedeun stop breathing?

It's been four minutes and sixteen seconds since her last breath.

Release her.

Jang Yeongsil, release her!

Jang Yeongsil, show me her vital signs!

Don't move. No!

Don't come near. Don't follow me!

I'll kill her. Don't follow me.

Don't follow me,

or I'll fucking kill her!

-You can't leave! -That's bullshit.

-The doors are all locked! -Is that so?

I'll just fucking kill her, then! Hey!

You should know.

As a doctor, you know what'll happen if I stab you here!

Hey, open the door.

Do you think I won't do it? Open the goddamn door!

Jang Yeongsil, open the security area.

Open the door. Hurry up!

Jang Yeongsil, open the door.

Step on it. Fucking step on it.

No! Stop!

Stop! No, stop!

Stop!

Jang Yeongsil! Lock the main gate!

Come with me.

Wait here.

I'm in front of BF's Seoul office.

I'm in front of BF's Seoul office.

Reporters are here to question Ms. Yun

-regarding yesterday's announcement… -BF hasn't made additional announcements.

They seem to have fully explained their standpoint.

- We believe… - Her transplant surgery has

-set BF's open price at an all-time low. -…Ms. Yun will soon start the experiment.

People have high hopes for the organ-transplant industry,

- which is deemed priceless. - BF is a one-person company.

On San, the research director and second-in-command,

has remained under the radar unlike Ms. Yun.

The transplant surgery won't happen.

Who are you?

I'm On San, the research director of BF.

-On San? -The director?

He's the director!

Please say something!

Will Yun go through with this experiment?

Why would she go that far?

BF will not carry out Ms. Yun's surgery.

So the announcement was a lie?

- Why the change of heart? - Did you succeed in culturing organs?

Yes, everything she announced is true.

BF has successfully cultured human organs.

And we're currently running top-notch AI technology that will aid

in the accuracy and success rate of transplants.

Ms. Yun only volunteered to be the first subject

to save those who are terminally ill.

As for me,

I fully understand why she made that decision.

But I can't allow that as her longtime friend and doctor.

Does that mean she made that decision without consulting her staff?

No, that's not what I'm getting at.

I'm only against this experiment

because I want to continue working with her.

Ever since she was 20 years old, she has strived

to create a world where humans don't need to consume living creatures.

And as a result, she made cultured meat.

As a scientist, I look forward to seeing

what other achievements she's capable of.

She is an important figure to our humanity and BF.

That's why the experiment won't happen.

We won't do it.

MISSED CALL

Tell them you're hiring a new research director.

You're trying to beat me to it.

Tell them you fired me for not listening and that the surgery will be postponed.

I know why you're saying that.

Making an empty promise is better than risking your life.

I guess I did something meaningful,

seeing how you took action when you always keep a low profile.

I wasn't trying to take action.

I found out who the killer is.

The one who killed Hoseung?

His name is Ji Sunwon. He's 39.

The police ran his fingerprints and--

And?

We even found his ID, but it's a different face.

Ms. Yun.

Jang Yeongsil, open the door.

Yes, ma'am.

He could've altered his face but not his fingerprints.

Where did you get his fingerprints?

Professor Kim wasn't the only one who was brainwashed by him.

The man who landed on your car.

He approached him as a pastor.

He won that man over just like he did with Professor Kim.

Apparently, he said repeatedly after winning the farmer's heart,

"The government is hopeless.

It's up to the farmers to stop Yun Jayu."

"There's nothing I can do as a pastor, so who will stop her?"

That man pushed the farmer.

The one who killed Hoseung and Professor Kim.

And DORSON was behind it.

Those bastards.

As well as AZORAN.

Seonu Geun organized the terrorist attack.

You impudent bastard!

What if they identify and catch the guy first?

BF identified him when you couldn't,

which you wouldn't have known either had the police not told me.

Still, you threw me under the bus!

It was just an example.

The main point is that I had to check the hotel's CCTV footage

to find out where that guy went after leaving the building.

So I needed a reason.

You have the final say. Tell the police to get the footage.

Should I do that instead then?

"My father and I already know

what room in which hotel the killer who murdered BF's bodyguard stayed in,

so please show us the footage." Should I say that?

How can they possibly disobey me? Why must I ask for the footage

on the pretext of finding out if the cameras recorded my affair?

If you're not up for it, then you're on your own.

You should've already known exactly what time and where

that killer fled to even before I asked you.

Does the prime minister want revenge?

Did he need to make sure before avenging his maternal grandfather

since it was his father?

Is that why he kept an eye on me?

To see if I found any more proof?

If it turns out that Seonu Geun is indeed guilty,

I will expose him at all costs.

What if he tries to kill you off for doing that?

Then he would've been long gone, and it would be just us two here.

The prime minister didn't stop me from visiting the penitentiary.

He knew I had spoken with his mother,

so he would've had a good idea where I'd be headed next.

What bothers me the most is…

My son didn't put you up to this, did he?

You can check with him.

She would've kept her mouth shut had her son interfered.

So why didn't he stop her?

We may not be in the same boat,

but they must've also wanted to know who was behind it.

That would make the most sense as to why she opened up to you.

He looked up the explosive material prior to the attack.

That fact would put him at a great disadvantage in court.

Seonu Jae isn't the type to share information.

But did he even share anything?

He's not trying to frame someone.

It feels like he wants the world to know who the real terrorist is.

How would he benefit from revealing that it's his father?

What about Jeong Haedeun?

What did she say?

Why is she being quiet at a time like this?

She doesn't know everything.

It's unlike you to take someone's side.

I'm not taking her side.

I'll take care of my people, so focus on stopping that crazy woman.

She promised to operate on patients pro bono after her surgery,

but that would only be a few hundred.

If she succeeds, she'll be opening an entirely new market.

Even I can't predict how much in demand it'll be.

It will change the entire business industry.

Can you imagine BF surpassing DORSON?

Is DORSON in a state where you should be worried about that?

It's not just about the organ transplant business's growth.

Do you think people will switch their worn-out cars

or their aging organs first?

Nothing will come before new organs.

What if…

…I brought you some samples?

Then can DORSON make them too?

What if I brought you all sorts

of BF's cultured organs?

The only way to do that is to bring Jayu.

She said she'd replace all her organs.

So if you brought her,

we'd have our hands on all the organs.

Is that your plan?

If I do bring them…

…will DORSON be able to make them too?

We must.

Those items will never get old.

When was it decided that you'd accompany Lee Mungyu on his trip?

About one week prior.

That short of a notice?

When did Seonu Geun's ex-wife look through his phone?

She said it was about two months before the trip.

So, it happened before I was chosen.

The Blue House suddenly invited me, so I looked into it.

They were originally going to take Chairman Kim Dongsik of Taeseong.

-Who changed the plans? -I wonder who it was.

Apparently, he had found a lump in his body.

Could it have been DORSON again?

-I doubt it. -Then why?

It'd be a relief

if the terrorist attack wasn't targeted at you.

Why would Seonu Geun harm his father-in-law

when it'd do him no good?

That's not for us to find out.

We just need to find the connection.

What happened at AZORAN was a massacre.

And Hoseung was killed too.

It's worth the fight if we can prove that DORSON was behind it all.

I can finally subdue Seonu Geun.

The problem is that only we know that DORSON is involved.

Mr. On, we need to prove that DORSON planted Ms. Jeong here.

We also need to prove that Seonu Jae ordered her

to help Mr. Woo get hired. And one more thing.

We need proof that it was Seonu Geun or his son

who tipped off the killer and helped him run away.

Make sure she provides this connection.

Seonu Geun's wife only lied out of spite,

and Kir also lied about what he did.

-We must prove this isn't true-- -Hold on.

Ms. Jeong was in a car crash.

-But she was tied up-- -What do you mean?

She tried to run away? How did she free herself?

Okay. I'm on my way.

She hit the main gate and is now hospitalized.

How is she?

They don't know yet. I'll call you.

How much coffee have you had today?

Five cups.

Kir's cousin was the one who told him to take the fall

and mentioned that the most powerful and wealthiest Korean was behind it.

We must find the cousin.

We must track his flow of money. But the problem is that

this could all be part of the prime minister's plan.

We'll only know once we make our move.

Where is his cousin?

In Dubai with his family.

Go get him. I'll inform the Dubai office.

I'll do that as long as you keep one promise.

Don't worry. I'll take care of Mansik.

Please don't get the surgery

until I return.

It'll take some time anyway.

I'm in no hurry whatsoever.

-The medical team must prepare-- -I need your word.

Go get ready.

I'll tell them to book the earliest flight.

I give you my word.

I'll wait until you come back.

I didn't want them to know that another incident happened at BF,

so I told them it seemed like a sudden unintended acceleration.

I didn't mention BF at all.

But I'd have to tell the police the truth.

How about Ms. Hong? Is she okay?

Yes. She was going to come here with me.

But she said the doctor would be suspicious

once he saw her injury.

So she chose not to come.

I wasn't even gone for that long.

How can I trust you with anything?

I'm sorry.

I had no idea she had a weapon.

She had carved some plastic.

Jeong Haedeun, that idiot.

Plastic?

Yes, a plastic spoon.

When did she get her hands on such a thing?

Mr. On, I…

The doctor is more concerned

about her psychological injuries than the physical ones.

Mr. On.

Ms. Yun is already stressed as it is, so could you let her down gently?

Sure. I'll do that.

Thank you.

Haedeun hasn't been home?

Not even for a bit?

Keep watching.

Did she run away?

Or did she get caught?

PUNISH YUN JAYU, THE MURDERER!

I'M LEAVING NOW

Yeongsil, read the text.

"I'm leaving now."

I'M LEAVING NOW

SURPRISE ANNOUNCEMENT BY YUN JAYU CAUSES A STIR

RESEARCH DIRECTOR STATES BF HAS SUCCEEDED IN CULTURING ORGANS

PETITION TO PUNISH BF FOR MOCKING INCURABLE PATIENTS

Today, we're holding our first meeting about the supplementary budget.

But none of you has commented on that.

- Here is my answer to your question. - Hmm--

I'm relieved that we could save someone as precious as Ms. Yun.

Furthermore, I don't know if the research director acted on his own

or if he had talked it through with Ms. Yun.

But I respect his decision not to go through with something

that could greatly impact society.

However, irrespective of their decision regarding the surgery,

BF underwent an illegal project…

-That's rich coming from you. -…and must be investigated

by the prosecution--

You're much worse than I am.

I have the right to order a search

and seizure for the illegal acts committed by BF.

I'll confiscate all evidence and related technology.

Please don't get the surgery until I return.

Tell the PR manager to see me.

Please give me your word.

MR. SEO

I'll be back.

Okay.

We don't need to worry anymore.

Ms. Yun made an announcement

that she wants the best organ-transplant doctors in the country.

KIM JAEHWA LEE DOYEONG

Seeing how she mentioned the exact number of doctors,

she must've had this plan in place for a long time.

But the problem is this surgery has created a heated debate among doctors.

HONG GISEON

The most notable doctors are tenured professors.

So who will risk the criticism and agree to help?

This will affect their social and professional status if they fail.

It'll be an absolute humiliation.

But if they succeed?

In that case, they'll deserve the Nobel Prize.

Still, who knew

the Transplantation Society President would come?

PARK SINYEONG

Why don't you try to dissuade her?

How would I do that? She would never listen to me.

So will you just sit and watch? Will you let her go through with it?

Everything will be fine if we succeed.

What?

This would be the best thing ever if it turns out to be a success.

It'll be a new achievement, and we'll gain respect. I mean, what if?

What if one of us got into an accident? We would've done this anyway.

That's a what-if.

Okay? Don't be ridiculous--

Ms. Yun is calling for me.

He's ecstatic about this.

Ms. Hong escorted the doctors.

We're ready, ma'am.

Is Ms. Jeong still unconscious?

Yes, she hasn't woken up yet.

But I have a hunch that she's pretending to be asleep.

Is there a way to fake her voice?

By using the commands she'd been giving to Jang Yeongsil?

Are you asking if we can create her voice using the data we have?

Yes, so that she can say whatever we want. As if she's having a conversation.

What would you like her to say?

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

-Please see them out. -Yes, sir.

Yes, what is it?

Who?

He's not in Korea?

Where is he headed?

Okay.

- Yes? - We got in.

A new firewall was put up right away. But we did get in.

-Did they make a move? -No, they didn't.

We were able to fool them by disguising our system as theirs.

All right.

Hello, sir.

BF.

Yes, sir. What should we do?

Captain Woo isn't in Korea right now. He's left for Dubai.

Let's do a search and seizure.
