BLOOD FREE

"What kind of meat would you like?"

I asked you all this question
just four years ago.

"What kind of meat would you like?"

But I no longer ask this question.

Because BF successfully commercialized
cultured meat for the first time in 2022.

Consumers worldwide have shown
an overwhelming preference for our meat.

We have our answer.

But I have asked you a similar question.

What kind of clothes
would you like to wear?

Killing. Slaughtering.

Is there no way to enjoy meat
without sacrificing animals?

BF SUCCEEDS AT CULTURING FUR

Fifteen years ago,

BF was founded
on the basis of this question.

And thanks to you, we were able to achieve
a phenomenal market share of 72%.

We can now confidently say

that what we put on our tables

is more transparent and safer than ever.

Meat that requires slaughter

is forever a thing of the past.

You and BF, a biotechnology company,

have made this remarkable achievement
possible.

Ladies and gentlemen.

Let me introduce you to the woman
who accomplished the impossible.

Ms. Yun Jayu, the CEO of BF.

Hello, I'm Yun Jayu.

First, I'd like to thank all of our guests
for coming here tonight

to attend BF's new product presentation.

Especially on Christmas Eve.

How's everybody doing?

Last year, a news program named me
greediest woman on Earth.

It's okay.
You can agree with them.

It's true that I'm greedy.

I'm never satisfied.

Wanna hear something interesting?

Cell culture requires only 1%, just 1%,

of the land needed to raise livestock
and cultivate feed

in order to produce
the same amount of food.

You knew that already? Okay.

Then what about this?

Did you know that one cow

produces more greenhouse gas
than a car does?

Why would I mention things
you already know?

KIM SINGU
BF RESEARCH TEAM 3 LEADER

Because I wanted to boast.
I'm extremely proud that...

SEO HUI

...BF contributes to the prevention
of global warming.

HONG SAEIP
BF LAB'S YOUNGEST LEAD, MEDICINE

However, we're not quite there just yet.

"BF."

"Blood Free."

Some people think of it as "beef"
when they read these initials.

Well, it does seem appropriate
for a meat-producing corporation.

However,

perhaps it is time
to change our company name.

We have expanded our territory
to include products from the sea.

We refuse to be complacent
and only culture what's on land.

Ladies and gentlemen.

We'd like to introduce
our new masterpiece for the end of 2025.

How does our new product taste?

This food has
all been cultured?

That's correct.

Not only has BF succeeded
in culturing livestock,

but we've also succeeded
in perfectly culturing

the four most consumed seafood varieties,

tuna, salmon, shrimp, and mackerel.

All the fish in the ocean are dead.
I can't catch a single one.

JEONG HAEDEUN - BF
LEGAL ADVISER, PLANNING DIRECTOR

I'd like to point out
something important.

Our seafood does not include any
of the following three contaminants.

Parasites, microplastics, or mercury.

In addition to being free of blood,

our products are risk free too.

Enjoy, everyone.

We can produce an unlimited amount.

I have a dream.

There's something I've yet to achieve.

To live in a world where we no longer need
to destroy one square foot of land

on Earth for food.

My company and I will work
to bring that day closer.

I make this promise before the world.

We'll have successfully cultivated
in six months

all varieties of grain and food crops
including rice and potatoes,

as well as palm oil, which is responsible
for the destruction of rainforests.

We'll make it happen.

I give you my word.

In six months,
I'll see you all again right here.

Please welcome
Professor Kim Singu from BF Laboratory.

Hello.

As mentioned, I'm Kim Singu
from BF Laboratory.

I'll take a peek at this
only when I'm stuck.

Very soon...

I will be retiring.

As a scholar of biotechnology...

They've already surrounded
the entire building.

We demand an apology from Yun Jayu,
the murderer!

The government must support BF!

Support BF!
- Justice against Yun Jayu!

We stand with BF
and their good work!

We support BF!

We stand with BF!

- We support Jayu!
- Murderer!

Justice against Yun Jayu!

The government
must actively support BF!

The government must actively support BF!

BF!

A GLOBAL COMPANY FOR A REASON!

Support BF!

BLOOD FREE

This road is the only way to get
on the highway, and traffic's awful.

I'm sorry, ma'am.

What did you say?

This road is the only way
to get on the highway

but there's heavy traffic.
I'm really sorry, ma'am.

Tis the season.

Damn!

Ms. Yun.

This door is stuck!

Hurry! It won't open!

- One, two, three!
- One, two, three!

Out of the way!

Don't touch her!
You could injure her spine.

Don't move her
until the ambulance gets here.

Ms. Yun, hang in there for a while longer.

Who are you? Do you know this man?

No.

Is he alive?

He was.

But now...

I'm not sure.

- Have a Merry Christmas.
- You too, sir.

What do we know?

SEONU JAE
CURRENT PRIME MINISTER

He was a cattle farmer in his 50s
who went bankrupt because of BF.

Surveillance footage shows

that he was hanging around the overpass
for an hour and a half.

I believe Ms. Yun was his target.

He passed away while in the ambulance.

How did he know she was going to be there?

BF asked the lead detective
the same question.

The detective said
that it was the only road

leading out from BF's venue.

Plus, traffic light cycles
are typically lengthy there.

He said it would've been the ideal spot

to jump and land on a vehicle.

How's Ms. Yun?

Thankfully, she only has a few bruises.

Huh.

Schedule a visit to the funeral home

and send some flowers
to the cattle farmer under my name.

- And to her too.
- By her, you mean...

- Ms. Yun, of course.
- Yes, sir. Will do.

Do you have to watch that?

He waited for the best moment
to break your neck.

Ms. Jeong went to the police
to ask about the deceased.

ON SAN - RESEARCH DIRECTOR
& TEAM 2 LEADER

Whether it was really on his own accord
or someone else's,

we'll have to see.

- Is the cause of death ruptured organs?
- Yes, it is.

Huh. Ruptured organs.

He could've been useful.

Had he fallen right on top of you,

it would've been your organs
that ruptured, right?

Huh?

He must've miscalculated his fall.

I heard he went through a lot.

Even his final moments
didn't go as planned.

Who is that man?

Beats me.

Can you not make me watch that?

I brought you some clothes.

Don't tell me you're working right now.

What did the police say?

I asked them to look into the possibility
that he may have been incited to do this.

His call records,
how many times he had visited the spot,

and whether he was alone or not.

But the police want
to speak to our bodyguards.

Why the bodyguards?

What if the bodyguards

disclosed the route
Ms. Yun was planning to take tonight?

I'm sorry, ma'am.

This road is the only way
to get on the highway,

but there's heavy traffic.

I'm really sorry, ma'am.

The driver was the only one who would've
known the exact route she would take.

I always felt uneasy about that.

Should we get a full-time bodyguard?

That could be even more dangerous.

And she doesn't like
being escorted all the time.

Let's be thorough with the vetting process
and find someone best suited for the job.

We can't always hire private security.

You sure?

To be honest,
it has been a hassle

contacting new services every time--
Actually, no. It hasn't been.

Mmm, we just have no idea
who we'll be recruiting.

Did they hear us?

Wow.

Whoa. Check out these flowers.
Guess who sent them?

"Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Prime Minister Seonu Jae."

Who is this man?

That man said that he was just passing by.

Do you know this man?
- No.

Is he alive?

He was.

A passerby who's willing to intervene?

And touch a bleeding man?

I don't think I could ever do that.

It looked as though he was a paramedic.

I think I have seen him somewhere.

I was so out of it during the incident.

Where in the world have I seen him before?

I'd also like to know.

He just happened to pass by that route.

He just happened to be a paramedic too.

And you recognize him.

What are the chances of that, Ms. Jeong?

I'll make sure to recall the location
where I saw him, ma'am.

Mansik.

Mansik.

CONTROVERSY BEHIND BF'S CULTURE
FLUID BEING FULL OF GERMS

CURRENT NEWS HEADLINES
BF'S CULTURE FLUID CONTROVERSY

30 MINUTES AGO

Hello, Ms. Hong.

TEAM LEADER OF RESEARCH TEAM 3
KIM SINGU

It's fine.

I can do it by myself, really.

I'm sorry. I should be helping you.

Ms. Yun is at the hospital,
and I'm still home.

Please set aside anything
you need to move.

I'll put them back later.

All right then.

What?

What's the matter?

What is that?

Professor Kim,
all your files have been encrypted.

I think your computer's been hacked.

They told us to follow the directions
to decrypt the files.

So I opened the "read me" file.

And I got this.

They want 80 billion won in Bitcoin
within the next 48 hours.

Only then will they unlock
our lab computers and files.

CitizenX is a ransomware organization.

They target companies
and government agencies,

then render their files inaccessible.

No one, to this day,

has successfully decrypted any files
they've encrypted.

They've hacked our servers?

How?

One of the security officers
is on his way here.

We'll have to ask him.

Only the lab?

What about HQ and Seoul?

They're both untouched. It's only the lab.

Are the hackers behind the article

claiming they found germs
in our culture fluid?

I just arrived at the newspaper agency.

I'll ask them about the source
of their information

and get back to you as soon as possible.

What we know so far is that

there's been an anonymous tip
about how the research that we do

is illegal and that the culture fluid
used for the cultured meat

was contaminated with several pathogens.
That's all for now.

I'm on my way,
but there's so much traffic.

It looks like everyone in Seoul
is out and about this evening.

I'll be there soon. See you.

Yeah, talk soon.

Yes, okay. Bye.

What's this nonsense?

I can't open the files I created
on my own computer.

That's what ransomware is.

Imagine someone changing
the passcode to get into your house

and demanding a ransom in exchange
for the new passcode. That's it.

What about the culture fluid?

I made those serums myself.
Who in the world...

How did this happen?

Yeongsil, look up articles
regarding germs at BF.

There are 1003 articles
regarding germs at BF.

Oh. That's a hell of a number.

If you'd like me to read them, please say,

"Jang Yeongsil,
read articles about BF and germs."

No, that's okay. Get lost.

Ms. Jeong,
you need to be kinder with your words.

Had we been the only ones
who received the tip-off,

we would've confirmed it with you.

We would've asked,
"Someone claims your research is illegal

and your culture fluid
contains pathogens. Is this true?"

After all, you and I
aren't exactly strangers.

So how did you know
that every news agency got this tip-off?

Because there were dozens
of email recipients.

They were all news agencies, Jeong.

It was delivered via email?

I debated whether
I should delete it or not

because I was worried I'd get scammed.

But it was sent to pretty much everyone
in this line of work.

I had to open it.
I didn't want us to be left out.

"Most would think culture fluid is clean
since it's fed to the meat,

but that's not true.

BF's culture fluid is full of bacteria.

Simply put, they are germs.

BF has been selling meat
that has been fed germs."

Is it true?

Whoever said that made a mistake.

So it's not true?

As Korea's largest news source,

I'm pretty sure
you'll be able to find the sender.

They sent it anonymously,
but you'll catch them soon, won't you?

I used KISA to track down the IP address

and looked up their email address
on Google.

What'd you find?

The IP is from Canada,
but the address doesn't exist.

As for the email address...

"Schrosky."

"Schrosky?"

That was their name?

The IP address and the name...

directed me to this.

So I open the readme file...

and I got this.

Could you please forward the email to me?

Is it true about the bacteria?

Come on. This isn't
your first rodeo. You should know better.

Only BF is worthy of conspiracy
on a daily basis.

Yeah.

What did Ms. Yun say
about the cattle farmer's death?

Thanks for your cooperation.

Hold on.

Shouldn't she be vehemently denying
the allegations

and saying that it's all a lie?

They're the ones behind it.

The ones who hacked our lab.

Here.

This is how they got in.

They hacked us remotely
by using the router on the fourth floor.

They infiltrated
this afternoon at 4:19 p.m.

How do we send them the money then?

This is their account number.

They want us to send the Bitcoin
within the next 48 hours.

Their account?

Then can't we catch them?

We can trace it back to them.

Do you agree?

There must be a name behind that account.

It may be a false name,
but if we keep digging--

You don't need
to verify your identity when making

a cryptocurrency account.

And a transaction won't happen
through proper channels,

which means we can't track them.

How is this possible?

But apart from that,

can we catch those bastards
who said my culture fluid was trash?

Sir, they didn't say that.

They said it was full of germs!

Then the media reported it
and people believed them!

They're all the same!
I devoted my entire life to this.

They are basically insulting me directly.

Really, what a bunch of cretins.

How could they give us only two days
to prepare 80 billion won?

They just happened to hack us
right when we presented our new product.

Do you think they knew
we'd all be at the event

and that the laboratory would be empty?

It only took them 20 minutes
to hack our system.

To think that our lab is so vulnerable...

I'm sorry, but we can't block
the ransomware unless we cut off

our network from the Internet entirely.

Shut down the lab for the next two days

and don't let anybody in this weekend.

We're gonna keep quiet?
We need to report this to catch them.

Reporting this won't guarantee
that we'll catch them though.

Ms. Yun, what's your plan?

Will you really pay the ransom?

Eighty billion won
is pretty cheap if you think about it.

Due to these allegations,

the market cap of the third market
transactions has been plummeting.

Team leads, what's your top priority now?

Well, we need to find out...

...if anyone accessed external networks.

But we told
the employees numerous times

to only use the company network.

Isn't it crucial to find out
if they only locked the files

or if they actually read them as well?

The computers contain
the core technology of our lab.

Ransomware rarely opens the files.

But there's no guarantee
that they haven't.

Then we need to assess the damage
and actually see how much work

we can do without opening the files.

Well, then do that.
And set up a new firewall.

Deny all probable allegations
and threaten to take legal action.

Request culture fluid analysis
from food safety organizations

from several nations
and present every report.

As for the hacking...

the six of us will keep it private.
Understood?

Sir.

Oh, Ms. Yun.

Uh, it's about that man
I said looked familiar.

You had a meeting the other day
with Chairman Park Daeseong of Sanghwa.

I saw this man when I was waiting outside.

He was standing guard.

And that's why he looked familiar.

- Standing guard for what?
- He was Chairman Park's bodyguard.

I asked Sanghwa,
and this man no longer works there.

You mean he quit?

Or got fired. They didn't provide
any further explanation.

Well done.

I only did a simple background check.
Should I dig further?

Are you okay, Ms. Yun?

He'd be perfect
if he hadn't been fired from Sanghwa.

Perfect for what?

Yeongsil.
Yes?

Give me a list of all the companies
and organizations attacked by CitizenX.

There have been seven
that were attacked by CitizenX.

July of 2025.
Maypal, a pharmaceutical company.

January of 2025. Pacific Bank.

- September of 2024--
- Jang Yeongsil.

- Yes?
- Did any of the victims pay the ransom?

I'm sorry. There are no related articles.

Any cases in Korea on file?

The Naval Intelligence Command in 2022.

The navy?

Read me some related news.

I'm sorry. I can't find any.

They're all covering it up.

The Intelligence Command?

He worked at the NIC
from 2020 to February of 2023.

Jang Yeongsil.
Yes?

When did CitizenX attack the NIC?

It was in September of 2022.

OCTOBER 2020
NAVAL INTELLIGENCE COMMAND

"Woo Chaewoon."

Too much of it fits together.

But why?

Is he a resource that I should use?

Or should I avoid him at all costs?

Welcome. Please sit.

LEE MUNGYU
FORMER PRESIDENT

It's been a few years.

I should've visited you sooner.

I apologize, Mr. President.

There is no need.

You may be wondering
why I suddenly contacted you.

I am. What is this about, sir?

Did you attend BF's presentation?

Were you the one who sent me the invite?

Mm-hmm, it was me.

You know why, don't you?

No, sir. I'm afraid I don't.

Captain Woo.

The reason why you accepted the invite
from someone you didn't even know.

The reason why you quit
even when Chairman Park dissuaded you.

But aside from that,

the reason why you decided
to work for Chairman Park.

Have you found the real terrorist?

Not yet, sir.

You asked me when

I had informed my associates
about visiting the troops.

And you said it was

seven hours prior.

I did.

Because it was the truth.

JANUARY 2024

Having the company of business leaders

on international trips
was nothing out of the ordinary.

But it was a last-minute decision
to visit the troops overseas.

So I explained to them

that I wanted to make a surprise visit
to those abroad.

The war may have been over,
but it was once a battlefield.

So I told them in advance.

After all,
they were all influential individuals.

I asked them to wait for me on the plane
since I wasn't going to take long.

They were all delighted about the visit
and said they'd be glad to accompany me.

It all happened within 30 minutes.

The two ministers died,
so it couldn't have been them.

Or secret service agents who retired
due to their severe injuries.

Therefore,

Chairman Lee Namjin of STL.

Park Daeseong of Sanghwa Group.

Han Giho of Tech Games.

Yun Jayu of BF.

It was one of them.

Not even the troops were notified that
I was coming due to security reasons.

One of them violated the orders
to keep it top secret.

If there was someone who was trying
to kill me in the explosion,

it was one of those four.

You thought so too, didn't you?

That's why you approached Park Daeseong.

However, the fact that you left him
means you don't think he's responsible.

You have changed your target.

Are you saying BF is the next target?

Thus the invite to the presentation?

It was Yun Jayu. I'm sure of it.

May I ask why you think it was her?

Are you perhaps insinuating
that I have no proof?

You wouldn't have called me
if you had concrete evidence.

Yet you're convinced it was her.
I'd like to be sure as well.

I want to be sure that they don't have
the wrong person behind bars.

I want to be sure that

the time spent since I left the service
hadn't been a waste.

Why do you believe it was her?

When I took office,

she requested a meeting with me.

Yun asked me

to overturn the law labeling cultured meat
as genetically engineered.

She said both the US and France
finally accepted cultured meat

as normal meat.

She suggested I follow suit.

That brazen woman made a covert effort
to convince me to alter the law.

- And she got what she wanted.
- Because I had to resign.

Because of these.

Do you know how much BF grew
after that incident?

It grew exponentially.

Do you know how much BF
is backing the current president?

I've watched you ever since
you visited me at the hospital.

From the moment

you asked me when I had told the others
about the surprise visit.

You pursued this matter
even though you were on your own.

You were tenacious despite the individuals
you were up against.

Captain Woo, I'm here to assist you.

Let me support you.

Even if it's too late
to bring up the past incident,

I'm certain that
she's still committing illegal actions.

Find out what it is.

Then we can bring her down.

Mr. President.

I'm not trying to bring anyone down.

You didn't succeed in keeping me safe.

It was your duty
to protect the head of state.

You can't let it happen again.
You can only fail once.

Go to Yun Jayu.

Become her right-hand man. Gain her trust.

PRESIDENT LEE MUNGYU

BLUETOOTH AUDIO

Yun Jayu of BF

is currently facing a lawsuit
filed by USMEF...

"And NCBA, and is receiving
numerous death threats."

"She's building a safe house
with state-of-the-art security.

She seems to be staying
at different hotels until it's complete.

Her younger sibling succumbed
to a degenerative brain disease.

She doesn't speak to her family.

Other than those affiliated with work,

she doesn't seem to have
any acquaintances."

Does he trust you?

He shouldn't call himself a soldier
if he doubts me.

Obeying a superior's command,
absolute submission,

that's what a soldier does.

Hmm.

I hope he's a soldier to the bone.

"There's a rumor that On San,
the research director and a colleague

from college
chose to get divorced because of her.

If the two are indeed lovers,

he could be the only connection
who allows her to be vulnerable.

Her only weakness."

BF will be hiring a bodyguard.

I can help you get in.

How would you do that?

You see me as incapable because I'm lame?

I do not, sir.

I apologize.

Since BF grew in power,
many have filed for bankruptcy.

And farmers have resorted to suicide.

But Yun Jayu didn't bat an eye.

She was only interested
in making even more money.

I tried to stop her.

And that's why...

she got rid of me.

Captain Woo.

Isn't it a soldier's duty
to protect the people?

Have you already forgotten
the humiliation you felt that day?

Salute!

At ease!

I will catch you.

No matter what.

Hello.

This is Woo Chaewoon.
