Typhoon Family (2025) #kdramareview

Tengok cerita ni sebab nak Junho impressed me after a meh King The Land. Also sebab aku suka cerita timeline berbeza. Kali ni kita ke tahun 1997, when IMF hits the world.

Female lead Kim MinHa sesuai watak dia dengan muka classic beliau. Dalam Way back Love pun best lakonan dia. Drama ni rajin juga guna real fact walaupun melibatkan other countries, tak sloppy gitu. Liking the FL character.  She still have a dream ( to be a trader) in the midst of survival. Lagi-lagi zaman tu bila women in trade are look down upon. She works hard from the bottom and keep holding on.

Watak Taepoong pula ada arch nya bila dia finally step up his game dan bertanggungjwab bukan saja pada bisnes ayahnya malah pada keluarga juga. He got gut plus a beginner confidence. Then he learn that his best asset are the people around him.

And these people confidence in him and his father helps him navigate the business world yang mencabar bukan saja dari keadaan ekonomi zaman tu, malah sifat dengki manusia lain. When Ms Oh cakap "Good Job", " You've work hard today" , " it must've been a long day. It was rough, wasn't it?" entah kenapa aku yang rasa lega dengar. 

Quote dari Kang Tae-Poong

Dari drama ni juga aku mengerti kata-kata "trust the jockey, not the horse" meaning bet on the person not the product. Sebab tu Taepoong not only buy and sell the safety shoe but also save that man live. Dia hire Ms So as senior staff, dia cari balik old staff to support him. Walaupun diorang start dengan jual fabric, with the right people they can sell other thing from safety boots to helmets. 

Cerita ni love line dia tipis-tipis je secukup rasa. Dah hujung-hujung ni dapat dengar gelak Junho sebenar. I bet banyak je adlib yang director masukkan dalam drama macam scene diorang cari sea mustard and dalam kereta terhentak kepala tu.

Spoiler, ending dia dengan both FL ML nak wujudkan kembali dream masing-masing. Tapi mereka pilih untuk teruskan live seperti sekarang dan realize sometimes our dream manifaste dalam bentuk lain. And for Taepoong, his people is his flower. 

Junho tebar pesona dengan scene dance dan menyanyi. Untuk adik-adik yang tak mengenali, dia idol so ni tadehal. Also salah satu OST drama ni dinyanyikan oleh Han dari Stray Kids. Ekceli aku tak tahu pun, but come onnn I know my fellow malaysia schooled kid from a split second punya sound. Go Hanpop!

Drama tak heavy sangat, tak ringan sangat.
