The series will be a thrilling account of high-octane action, nerve-jangling tension, and profound social reflection.
A World Reliant on Lab-Grown Meat.
In a far future when natural meat eating has become a thing of the past, “Blood Free” is set. To feed, the population a company called BF is known for influencing big firms. This biotech company under the leadership of Ja-yoo Yoon (Han Hyo-joo) who is persistently ambitious had replaced natural meat with lab-grown meat that is genetically modified.
A CEO and Her Bodyguard: An Unlikely Alliance.
However, none of the fame that Yoon Ja-yoo receives would come for free. Corresponding to the growing power of BF comes the increasing levels of surveillance and the growth of distrust. To travel through the constantly changing and more precarious environment, she gets Woo Chae-woon (played by Ju Ji-hoon) as her bodyguard. Chae-woon, an ex-soldier with a story of his past that is yet unexplained will be one of the best team players for the mission.
More Than Just Meat: A Question of Power.
The description notes the presence of an intricate cat-and-mouse game, but the movie seems to be more complex than that, addressing deeper issues than physical threats. This series appears to be on the precipice of investigating the ethical underpinnings of BF’s tech. Lab-grown meat is considered to be a solution or does create new problems in the food chain. Does this innovation lead to an imbalance in the balance of power in society?
