Editor's note: Despite protests from neighboring countries, the Japanese government insists on its plan to discharge the Fukushima nuclear-contaminated water into the ocean. As the discharge begins on August 24, it not only endangers the global ecosystem but the well-being of humanity as well. T-House's satirical animation features a hypothetical conversation between a Japanese salesman and a female student from South Korea. How dangerous could the nuclear wastewater be? Have a look!

Male: Kampai Juice? Kampai Juice?
Female: Annyong haseyo. What is Kampai Juice?
Male: Oh, you're Korean? Konichiwa.
Female: Yes. I'm an exchange student.
Male: Then you must try our legendary Kampai Juice.
Female: What is it?
Male: Fukushima Special Water. For you, special price. $15.
Female: What? $15 for a cup of radioactive wastewater?
Male: Yes. Made famous by our MP Yasuhiro Sonoda who drank a glass of it in 2011.
Female: Is he still alive?
Male: I don't know. But I think we shouldn't throw such valuable water into the ocean. Old Japanese proverb: Spilled water cannot return to the bowl.
Female: Really? And what else will you do with your Fukushima wastewater, besides selling it for drinks?
Male: Pour it into our own dams, of course!!
Female: For what?
Male: So that we can farm more Glow-in-the-dark-Sushi.
Female: Seriously?
Male: One of a kind!!! And we own the patents!!!
Female: Doesn't radioactive water kill people?
Male: Have you never heard of Spiderman? You know, radioactive spider... bite bite...
Female: But that's Hollywood fiction!!!
Male: And we can start our very own Godzilla Farms.
Female: What on earth would you want so many Godzillas for?
Male: To make movies, of course!!!
Female: You are insane!!!
Male: Imagine how many "Godzilla vs Ultraman" movies we can create, without ever using arubber suit!!! And how much money we could make!!!
Female: You've lost your mind!!!
Male: If Japan releases this precious juice into the ocean, the whole world will have their own Godzillas. How will we make money then?
Female: But the reports say drinking radioactive water will KILL YOU!!!
Male: You know the old proverb: If you believe everything you read, then better not to read.
