Kang Tae-poong, played by Lee Jun-ho, expressed his longing for his late father, Kang Jin-young, portrayed by Sung Dong-il.
In the episode of tvN's 'Typhoon Company' aired on the 29th, Kang Tae-poong was seen saving the father of Bae Song-joong, played by Lee Sang-jin, who was in a life-threatening situation.
After a phone call, Bae Song-joong returned to the office, tearfully saying, "My father is dying... please save him." Bae Song-joong and the employees of Typhoon Company rushed to save his father.
Upon meeting Bae Song-joong's father, Kang Tae-poong introduced himself, "I am Kang Tae-poong, working with Deputy Bae Song-joong. Everyone is worried about you," and noticed a promissory note on the floor. Bae Song-joong's father lamented, "The cursed IMF is to blame. Last night, my employees gave me this, to help pay off the debt. I haven't been able to pay their salaries for three months, yet they told me to use this..." burdened by a 30 million won debt, he contemplated a drastic decision.
Hearing his story, Kang Tae-poong shared, "When my father passed away, people advised me to declare bankruptcy. They said all debts would disappear if I renounced inheritance... but I didn't. Doing so felt like losing my father all over again. I am a CEO, but first and foremost, I am my father's son. So, whenever something good happens at the company, I miss him, and when something sad happens, I miss him even more. I want to see him every day, whether I'm sleeping or eating. My father," he expressed his deep longing, embracing Bae Song-joong's father tightly from behind.
