In the latest episode of Blood Free, CEO Yoon Ja-Yoo shared her personal reasons for establishing BF Group, a company that dominates the genetically engineered cultured meat market. The revelation came in a conversation with Chae-Woon, her bodyguard, who had previously expressed anger over being experimented on by BF Group researchers.
Yoon Ja-Yoo revealed that her twin sister suffered from Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), also known as mad cow disease for humans. After her sister passed away, the government refused to acknowledge that the disease caused her death, leading to rumors and speculation. This experience left Yoon Ja-Yoo with a deep desire to help humans live longer and without pain.
In addition to her sister’s illness, Yoon Ja-Yoo also witnessed the horrors of animal slaughter at a young age. Witnessing the pigs being slaughtered during an epidemiological survey left a lasting impression on her, fueling her determination to break free from the food chain and create a perfect, dominant species.
However, tragedy struck in this episode when one of Yoon Ja-Yoo’s bodyguards, Ho-Seung, was killed by Park Sang-Min, a mysterious individual who had been attending counseling gatherings for people who have lost loved ones to cancer. Ho-Seung and his fellow bodyguard, Chae-Woon, had been investigating Park Sang-Min in connection with the ransomware attack that targeted BF Group.
Ho-Seung’s death leaves Chae-Woon devastated and determined to uncover the truth behind his comrade’s murder. The investigation into Park Sang-Min and the ransomware attack is sure to unfold in the upcoming episodes of Blood Free, as the series continues to explore the complex world of genetics, technology, and the human condition.
