Season 9 Episode 24: Deliveries Among COVID-19 in South Korea

COVID-19 is forcing many South Koreans to shop online, increasing the number of online purchases by 30% in 2020. However, the delivery drivers who bear this burden lack job security or basic labor rights. Drivers are responsible for providing their own vehicles, but pay for each delivery is meager, pushing many to severe overwork in order to replace the income lost to the pandemic. This episode depicts the harsh work environment these drivers suffer.
