The upcoming episode of 'A Story About the Day', titled 'The Mysterious Secret of a Dream Job', will delve into the shocking human rights abuses at a textile factory and the subsequent 47-year-long fierce battle for the honor restoration of the female workers. Actors Lim Semi, On Joo-wan, and Jung Young-ju will join as listeners, deeply empathizing with the struggle of the female workers.
During the recording, Lim Semi shared her thoughts on her first appearance on 'A Story About the Day', surprising Jang Do-yeon by revealing, "This is the first time I'm saying this, but my father also appeared on this show." It turns out her father was Detective Lim Man-gyu, who had garnered attention for his kind deeds towards a victim in the 'Circus Girl Episode' aired last February. Lim Semi expressed her honor in following in her father's footsteps to appear on the show, marking the first time in the show's history that a father and daughter have appeared together.
Meanwhile, Jung Young-ju became the listener who has met all three MCs of the 'Jang Trio' - Jang Do-yeon, Jang Hyun-sung, and Jang Sung-kyu. She effortlessly charmed MC Jang Sung-kyu, showcasing her prowess as an 'expert listener' and eliciting laughter.
The recording session revealed the appalling human rights abuses at a textile factory targeting female workers. The record of the 1970s, when female workers fought for their rights in a hostile environment, was shocking. The factory had thrown toxic human waste at the female workers to disrupt their union activities, a blatant violation of their rights.
On Joo-wan expressed his dismay, saying, "This could leave a trauma," empathizing with the humiliation the female workers must have felt. Lim Semi was moved to tears along with the female workers in the footage.
The situation escalated with the firing of all 124 female workers and the mysterious delivery of a blacklist to prevent them from finding employment elsewhere, leading to shocking revelations. This raised questions about the truth behind the textile factory female workers' case. The ongoing 47-year battle for the rights of these workers, not for a unilateral dismissal but for voluntary resignation, will be unveiled in the main broadcast of 'A Story About the Day'.
The 'Mysterious Secret of a Dream Job' episode of 'A Story About the Day' will air at 10:20 PM on the 1st.
