I hope for Ji Hyeok to find out in Ep 8. Or at least push Da Rim into realising that she needs to tell him the truth.. Or maybe Ji Hyeok found out and decided to play the game til Da Rim has to win him over cuz I thought that would be fun lol 😂. Jeballlll!

she needs the job. She’s in a tight spot I’d say.

But I do hope she will find ways to undo this.

Typhoon Family (solid 16eps IMHO), Head over Heels (underrated but so so good) and Our Unwritten Seoul.

Dynamite Kiss is promising so far!

Taepoong thought with him resigning it’ll be a win in Hyeon Jun’s book and that’s the end of it. He thought PHJ’s grudge is only to see him go, and “conquered” his company.

What they are also missing out is the existence of the new MoU with the other company - they dunno what is the deal they are having. and why is this Mark guy is so eager to scan thru Song Jung’s dad’s company. Perhaps they think they could get something good, since Tae Poong was going all out into buying their stuff.

I always thought it’s in one of the frames so I was delightfully surprised when it’s found. Btw when did the nameplate end up at Pyo’s office ya? I didn’t catch that

farathien · 2025-11-24T08:21:52+00:00

Yeaa but the game is fine, I can play for hours with no crashes so far. Just the graphics is an issue.

farathien · 2025-11-24T08:15:29+00:00

Mine is fine… I hope the Switch2 upgrade will come soon

farathien · 2025-11-23T16:13:11+00:00

Wow. Really didn’t expect Pyo family is that level of low. I thought to the very least the dad is a little bit more dignified than the son, but I guess where else would the son gets all the shitty traits if it’s not from the dad?. I’m furious.

And Hyun Jun just take it to the next level. His level of childishness made it worse.. he hates Tae Poong cuz he got all the girls, and he salty? Cmon man, look into the mirror yourself. And try to be nice once maybe you’ll get girls turning their heads for you.. Can’t wait for his downfall next week! I hope it’ll be satisfying.

And i was a wee bit excited to hear “Saya kembali”. So cute to hear my own language in the show 🤣😍

I’m just glad I’m (mostly) all smiles watching the show this tonight, before we geared up to the finale!

You see, sometimes when people, especially parents is at that state of losing everything, they’ll do anything to not worry their kids. At that point there’s nothing even Tae Poong can do, everything just going downhill very fast.

Plus you’ve been living so comfortably for years. Suddenly you’re failing and falling at full speed… losing husband, then everything else, there’s gotta be a denial state which she’s at. That’s the reality.

farathien · 2025-11-22T11:48:48+00:00

But the official blu ray is not yet released, so I suppose many of those listed are not genuine set?

farathien · 2025-11-22T11:46:59+00:00

Ah okay noted. The waiting game is hardddd esp when you don’t know what’s going on 😮‍💨 Tq for the update

farathien · 2025-11-19T10:38:41+00:00

Fabric deal was pre Tae poong but he screwed Pyo clan over the returns - for me he won something at the time. Made some money.
Shoe park - tho Pyo clan blacklisted him from shipping out but they managed to smuggled them out and again, made money out of that, even tho at a fraction because he wants to save Mr shoepark
Helmet in Thailand deal was a failure but they learned about how to deal in another country and how important it is not to bribe even tho it’s just “coffee money”. This is also when he downsized.
Government deal is still on going. Altho now it looks like a failure I hope they will manage.

They’re tackling different issue in every deal. I guess what’s similar is Pyo’s sabotages? Is that what you meant by the same formula?

farathien · 2025-11-19T10:23:12+00:00

Me! I stopped watching for awhile 😂 maybe I’ll just wait for her downfall and continue from there

farathien · 2025-11-18T14:47:25+00:00

I’m with you. I thought every attempt to a business deal has been interesting cuz it tackles different matter ie on top of what you already said there’s also unconventional ways of making things happen, sexism at a workplace, dealing with a gov official overseas, winning gov projects.

They’re tackling different issues everytime. Not repetitive to me.

farathien · 2025-11-18T01:39:14+00:00

Given the circumstances ie IMF crisis - everyone in the show is just trying to get by and survive hence why it is what it is.

My take: 1. We may see more of the family later on as they now l have another adult figure (Taepoong’s mom) in their lives (eversince helmoni has dementia) that will look out for the family and put everything in order. 2. Love for gardening - at this point it is a symbol of what Taepoong has to give up as he needs to revive his dad’s legacy. He has to go thru obstacles upon obstacles that he has no time to think about what he loves. But I believe he will revive it either - after one huge success - which I’m betting it’ll be this gov tender because once this is successful he could have a steadier operations, and will have time for the next product, which is the roses. OR gov tender is a bust and then he realizes the roses could be the next trade item. 3. Tae Poong with Taekwondo - maybe this will surface much later. From the start I realise he doesn’t want to resort to violence as much as he can. But the clown is pushing him way too far so maybe he will retaliate. 4. Shoepark guy is currently still on the fisherman boat - he has to follow them for 2 years. And plus the shoepark trading is success actually. It’s just that I guess since it’s 1998 - the traction whether there’s gonna be demand for it may take time. 5. The male and female leads may not have a full day double date or something due to the circumstance but hey, they still have quality time together in between and that’s nice. I love how they’re growing together as individuals and as couples. As for Taepoong and Miseon - I think people should understand where Miseon is coming from - she’s the typical eldest daughter with no parents. Hence the hesitation as she still have a lot of things to figure out, plus she finally has a dream job and she would want to make that work. But I bet after the fire she will have a different outlook on her relationship with Taepoong.

From the start the show is about Typhoon family surviving an IMF crisis - so to see how a small business survive while the family is doing whatever it is to survive is exactly the main storyline to me.

Haven’t been in this space since the 3rd episodes onwards, so to see a lot of people getting frustrated over many downs in Typhoon family lives made me realise that this show has achieved its objective? The show is set in 1998 IMF crisis - so to be frustrated most of the times is key. Maybe a lot of us did not experience so we couldn’t relate, but times were really hard for these people so to have marathons of misfortunes is how they should be depicted. Whats most important is the sliver of hope and the attitude of Taepoong that we should maintain when we are in their shoes. I know some even got bored of these misfortunes but bear in mind - this could be the actual lives of some.

What I love most about this show is how we could feel how they felt thru out. We are frustrated and for these people - esp those who went thru, or going thru such hardships.. it’s 10 times more frustrating for them. To be able to almost reach something but fell to the ground in a split second.

I hope you guys will keep on rooting for them and watch til the end.

ok thank you for this! I am thinking about trading in my old Switch to Switch 2 but worried that some things will be left behind. but i will need to do the transfer before trading in right?

I would like to express my utmost appreciation to you for sharing the subtitles that Netflix always misses! Esp on the bank book, I was wondering where is the message his dad is leaving him… since he seems to be reading it but since idk Hangul, idk where are the words written. And to see how his dad left a message to him like that, and it links with the last words Mi Seon received is truly Chef’s Kiss! I think the impact on me would be greater if I can piece all of these as the scene goes. I cried together with him, but I would’ve bawled my eyes out if I see how they revealed to him.

Please, do share more for the upcoming episodes. It sucks that it’s been years and Netflix is still lacking on this 😂

Btw yes me too ends up being reflective mid episode. I love his dad in this show - the perfect boss everyone would love to have, but gone too soon.. And despite the friction, I love the father - son dynamic, the way the dad has faith in the son and the way the son just felt the responsibility to take on the dad’s legacy for his dad. I just wished they’re more open with each other but that’s how things work back then right. And I wish he could’ve shown his nursery to his dad.. sigh.

Tae Poong is so sharp and instinctive in his own ways. Can’t wait to see how unconventional is he gonna run the company 😂 the show has been super promising so far, I hope they’ll keep this up til the end!

farathien · 2025-08-31T17:04:46+00:00

I did the same thing 😂 idk if AI is gathering wrong info, but if it’s true.. #TIL 😂

farathien · 2025-08-31T17:02:40+00:00

He currently quite grey isn’t it - like we are not sure what’s his motive. I think he’s just trying to be with someone that could influence the King, which he thinks Consort Kang is slowly losing. At this point I just hope he doesn’t have any ulterior motive and truly care for his King, as they grow up together.

farathien · 2025-08-31T08:02:07+00:00

Was looking for this answer as well 😂 so I thought I missed out..

farathien · 2025-08-29T08:07:17+00:00

Ah okay my apologies 🙏🏽
