The story, without the spoilers.
Kang Tae-poong has lived a comfortable, carefree life as the son of the owner of Typhoon Trading Company. Then the 1997 financial crisis hits Korea, his father dies suddenly, and Tae-poong inherits a small company on the edge of bankruptcy, with a handful of loyal employees and a mountain of debt. With the help of Oh Mi-seon, a sharp and practical bookkeeper, he must learn to lead, to sell, to survive — and to grow up. Typhoon Family is a warm, funny and nostalgic period drama about ordinary people fighting to keep a business and a family alive during a national crisis. Lee Jun-ho is charming as the reluctant young boss learning responsibility, Kim Min-ha is steady and smart as Mi-seon, and the 1997 setting is full of period detail and humour. The business stakes are modest and the romance is gentle, but the heart is large. It is a drama about work, dignity and the people who refuse to quit.
A little curiosity. A new favourite.
