Lee Jun-ho and Kim Min-ha Embark on Rescue Mission for Lee Chang-hoon in 'Typhoon Trading Company'
Lee Jun-ho and Kim Min-ha from tvN's weekend drama 'Typhoon Trading Company' are working tirelessly in Thailand to rescue their colleague, Lee Chang-hoon.
In the previous episode, Go Ma-jin (played by Lee Chang-hoon), who had offered $50 to customs for a meal, was unexpectedly arrested by Thai police, ending the episode on a cliffhanger. What was intended as a simple gesture for lunch quickly escalated into a bribery charge, worsening the situation instantaneously.
The preview for the 9th episode reveals a poignant reunion as Kang Tae-pung (Lee Jun-ho) and Oh Mi-sun (Kim Min-ha) visit Go Ma-jin in jail, who appears disheveled and distressed. Amidst a crowd, their reunion evokes a sense of longing, akin to separated family members finding each other.
Furthermore, the situation is more challenging than it appears. The $50 bribe has been officially recorded as $10,000, raising questions about how a sum meant for a meal ballooned into over 15 million Korean won.
Compounding the crisis, the customs clearance for helmets has been completely suspended due to Ma-jin's case. If the issue isn't resolved, the entire shipment faces disposal. To make matters worse, a crucial meeting with Thai company Nihakam has been canceled, leaving 'Typhoon Trading Company' in a desperate situation where the success of their export contract hangs in the balance.
Consequently, Tae-pung and Mi-sun will be working day and night across Thailand to prove Ma-jin's innocence and salvage their shipment. Mi-sun's earnest gaze and hurried movements in the preview clearly convey their desperation. The duo will exert all their efforts to find a way to save Ma-jin and persuade the Nihakam Group once more.
With a trial now pending, attention is focused on how Tae-pung and Mi-sun will rescue Ma-jin and ultimately protect the helmets. The upcoming 9th episode promises to be thrilling.
The production team stated, "This week, Tae-pung and Mi-sun will engage in a desperate struggle to save their colleague, running tirelessly throughout Thailand. Amidst the dire circumstances, their humanity, teamwork, and evolving relationships will be highlighted, delivering a deeper level of enjoyment in the second half of the drama. Please look forward to their exhilarating performance."
'Typhoon Trading Company' episode 9 airs today, the 8th, at 9:10 PM.
Korean netizens are expressing sympathy for the characters, with comments like "Lee Jun-ho and Kim Min-ha look so pitiful ㅠㅠ", "How can $50 turn into $10,000? That doesn't make sense!", "I really hope they resolve this safely!", and "The second half of 'Typhoon Trading Company' is so exciting." They are showing high anticipation for the unfolding events amidst the characters' crisis.
