The newest airing of the tvN weekend drama "Typhoon Family" catapulted it to new heights when it recorded a 9.9 percent viewership rating on November 16 and marked its highest performance since its premiere. This episode combined high-stakes business battles with an emotionally charged rescue sequence.

According to the story this week from AllKpop, it was a tense bidding war over surgical gloves. Things didn't start out very well: the U.S. supplier insisted on full-price purchases regardless of quantity, and Pyo Sang Sun held a competitive advantage with his already developed logistics network.

The outlet noted, "The U.S. supplier insisted on full-price purchases regardless of volume or conditions, and Pyo Sang Sun held a clear advantage with his fully developed logistics network."

The breakthrough came with the opportune tip about wholesale pricing by Wang Nam Mo, played by Kim Min Seok. The character Tae Poong, played by Lee Jun Ho, managed a very unconventional workaround by bypassing the headquarters in the U.S. and negotiating with a Malaysian factory directly.

He sent Song Jung, played by Lee Sang Jin, two days before the bid, to Malaysia to seal the deal.

However, the overseas situation soon became complex. As per Insight, the factory had already terminated its contract with the U.S. headquarters and shifted production to pillow manufacturing. The surgical glove facility had been relocated somewhere among Malaysia's hundreds of islands.

Insight reported, "The factory... had already terminated its contract with the U.S. headquarters and shifted its business to pillow manufacturing."

Typhoon Company faced growing anxiety as the bidding deadline approached due to unstable communications. Then, three minutes before the cut-off time for submission, a brief but critical telegram came from Song Jung: "5111, 40, ok."

In an instant, Tae Poong deciphered it; within seconds, he worked out the bid and made a dramatic come-from-behind win.

The victory crushed Pyo Sang Sun, who witnessed severe tensions in his camp after having suffered a gigantic financial setback and the defeat of a national project. His strife with Pyo Hyun Joon mounted, showing cracks in their internal cohesion.

The climax of the episode was when Mi Sun, played by Kim Min Ha, got caught up in a warehouse fire while inventory checking. Seeing her through the flames, Tae Poong pushed through burning debris and leaped into the inferno to save her, offering one of the most intense moments of the series. "Typhoon Family" is broadcast every Saturday and Sunday at 9:10 p.m.
