The comeback of Goma-jin (Lee Chang-hoon) brought new life to Typhoon Corporation. After positive discussions with helmet manufacturer Kang Sung, it succeeded in securing supplies and hopes turned once again. Now the key was 'Which country to sell to' with most of the major markets already preoccupied. However, everyone was puzzled when the typhoon pointed to Thailand, which first hit the IMF, but the judgment had a clear basis based on the analysis of information accumulated by scraping newspapers. The key was not 'How much do you make?' but 'How much do you spend?' Thailand had the highest purchasing power in South Asia, with the largest number of department stores, the second-largest purchase of expensive German cars after Germany. Moreover, Typhoon predicted that helmets have recently become mandatory in Thailand, where motorcycles are the main means of transportation, and that the crackdown will be intensified with Park Chan-ho's visit to Bangkok.
Marin introduced 'Sawadi Trade' operated by 6th cousin Goma-yong (Lee Han-wi) in Thailand for more than 15 years and presented a realistic implementation plan. He was like a sales veteran with long field experience. However, there was a subtle tension within the sales team ahead of the business trip. Oh Mi-sun (Kim Min-ha), who became the head of the sales team in the accounting department, advised that the undesirable margin was "The sales are not so easy." It was an unwritten rule at the time that only men should do business. Mi-sun, who dreams of becoming a boss man, confronted firmly, saying, `I'll get the evaluation from the customer, and I'll show you the proof in numbers.' but she couldn't hide her bitter feelings.
The first overseas business trip of the three typhoon companies, who left for Thailand, was not an easy journey, contrary to their excitement. Even at the first meeting with Ma Yong, the margin slightly crossed Miseon's introduction, and at the dinner table, the typhoon gave people a hand-picked soup, showing signs of discomfort. In addition, Mi-sun, who wanted to go to the port of Ramchaya where the goods would come in, excluded her, saying that it was a place where the boss and the business went. The air was further cooled by Margin's straightforward attitude, asking what he could do when he went. It was the typhoon that brought a dinner tray to take care of her who didn't eat properly that came to Mi-sun who went back to her room. However, Miseon went off the hook, saying, `I'm hearing that because the boss covers me like this.'
Even in the port of Ramchaya, the confrontation between the US and the margin continued. The margin was visible to customs officials, so they poked a carton of Korean cigarettes that Thai people like and $50 for lunch. Surprised Miseon restrained her, saying it was a bribe, but the margin did not bend, calling the basics of business. At the same time, Mi-sun was caught in a snatch and even cried at his attitude, which seemed to be ignored again.
For the first time, he firmly instructed that a typhoon trying to change such tight air should go to the club together as 'President'. It was to meet Nitsa (Davika Fune), the youngest daughter of Nihakam Group, who has a clue to exporting helmets at a club called the venue for network building in Thailand these days. Nitsa, who was introduced to the beautifully dressed typhoon, encouraged him to sing on stage. Like a love serenade, he sang 't Take My Eyes Off You' sweetly, capturing the atmosphere on the spot.
Nevertheless, Mi-sun's heart was still uncomfortable. I also felt guilty that I only paid for my flight without doing anything in Thailand. Looking at the heels of his uncomfortable shoes, he looked even more stupid. The typhoon, which followed Miseon out of the club, tied the handkerchief directly to the wound. And "Don't try too hard. I know everything (how hard you're trying)." Miseon's bitterness gradually eased as she watched the typhoon humming again for her.
But the calm did not last long. That night, the police stormed into the accommodation, and the three were taken away from each other. While anxious because she didn't know the situation, Mi-sun, who has been studying basic Thai, managed to grasp the situation. The beginning of the problem was $50 that the margin handed over to customs officials. CCTV was also secured in the case of bribery allegations. The police, who were trying to match their faces, eventually arrested Margin. Expectations have exploded on how typhoons and missiles can overcome the crisis in a faraway country where words cannot be spoken. 'Taepung Corporation' airs every Saturday and Sunday at 9:10 p.m. on tvN.
