'Apartment 404' Yoo Jae-seok became the ending fairy for episode 5.

tvN's 'Apartment 404', which aired on the 22nd, highlighted the 1991 Phenol incident through the fifth episode, 'Abandoned Conscience'. Yoo Jae-seok caught the culprit of the incident, security guard Lim Woo-il, and achieved his first solo victory.

Yoo Jae-seok, Cha Tae-hyun, Oh Na-ra, Yang Se-chan, Jenny, and Lee Jeong-ha were summoned to 1991 to clean up water with apartment residents. However, residents who drank the coffee given by the women's association president fell down one after another with foam at the mouth, creating an unusual atmosphere. Accordingly, the residents assumed that it was a poisoning incident between neighbors and searched for clues at the women's association president's house in room 505.

During the residents' activity time to obtain clues, the 'Rainbow Dice Item Finder' game was added to the fun by finding items matching the keywords written on the dice. 'Yugane' Yoo Jae-seok, Cha Tae-hyun, Jenny, 'Ogane' Oh Na-ra, Yang Se-chan, and Lee Jeong-ha showed off their bickering chemistry by hindering the opposing team's movement for victory.

'Yugane', who won the game, obtained a clue video tape and realized that the incident was related to bottled water. 'Ogane' looked around the house using the hint written on the kalguksu ramen bag and realized that the keyword in the case was water.

However, everyone was perplexed when the detective found out that the women's association president was not under suspicion, that there was no one else who drank the coffee, and that there was no problem with the bottled water the women's association president sold. In addition, blue spots, which are said to appear as a reaction to poison, also appeared on Yoo Jae-seok, Cha Tae-hyun, Oh Na-ra, Yang Se-chan, Jenny, and Lee Jeong-ha, making the case even more mysterious.

The criminal's belongings must be placed in the police car by 5 p.m. in order to arrest the criminal, and a reward is offered to the resident who catches the criminal, raising the morale of the residents. 'Yugane', who obtained the clue video in the second game, found out that this incident was the phenol incident through Yoo Jae-seok's video in 1991.

While Yoo Jae-seok put Lee Jeong-ha's artificial tears into the police car while they had to find Mr. A, who was instigated by an insider of the company and attempted to commit a poisoning crime, Lee Jeong-ha was not the culprit. Yang Se-chan shared that the culprit was security guard Lim Woo-il through the hints of clovers posted throughout room 504. As a result, a chase between the residents and Lim Woo-il took place.

Oh Na-ra's barefoot fighting spirit(?) increased immersion. As soon as he spotted Lim Woo-il, he immediately took off his shoes and bag and ran, followed secretly, and even begged. Yoo Jae-seok, who stole Lim Woo-il's hat, put the item in the police car just before the end, winning and becoming the ending fairy.

The 2049 target audience rating of this day's broadcast (based on a paid platform integrating cable, IPTV, and satellite, provided by Nielsen Korea) ranked first in the same time slot, including comprehensive cable channels, both in the metropolitan area and nationwide.
