Korea's Nuclear Safety and Security Commission on Thursday said some of the company's mattresses were found to contain monazite, a phosphate mineral with a high content of thorium, a radioactive metallic chemical. The commission launched an investigation on the mattresses after reports that radioactive materials, such as radon, were detected from them. / Yonhap
