Consumers surveyed 100 kinds of slime and spare parts collected from 20 slime cafés nationwide, 19 of them were found to be unsuitable for safety standards, and sales were stopped.

In the case of part parts, one of the three phthalate plasticizers was detected in excess of the allowable level, and some products have reached 766 times the standard value.
