In the 15th episode of tvN's 'Typhoon Company' aired on the 30th at 9:10 PM, Kang Tae-pung was forced to resign from his position as president of Typhoon Company due to the schemes of Pyo Hyun-joon, portrayed by Moo Jin-sung.
During the episode, Pyo Hyun-joon visited his father, Pyo Bak-ho, played by Kim Sang-ho, who was locked in a warehouse after being assaulted, to extract information about Kang Tae-pung. Pyo Hyun-joon discovered a guarantee letter that Kang Tae-pung had used for a glove deal, hidden in his father's clothes.
Using this as leverage, Pyo Hyun-joon pressured Kang Tae-pung to relinquish his position. Kang Tae-pung acknowledged the inescapable situation and resigned, but not before finalizing a contract with Dabontek, operated by Baek Song-jung's father, as his last act as president.
Kang Tae-pung embraced a tearful Oh Mi-sun, played by Kim Min-ha, saying, "That was the last thing I could do as president," and asked the employees to protect the company before leaving. Now unemployed, Kang Tae-pung began working at Dabontek, continuing the contract.
Later, Oh Mi-sun found Kang Tae-pung in a neighborhood alley and handed him a newly made business card, urging him to remain the president of Typhoon Company, saying, "No matter how hard it gets, we'll always wait for you." Kang Tae-pung, moved by her words, embraced her, gaining strength.
Meanwhile, the Typhoon Company employees rushed to help when Baek Song-jung's father faced a financial crisis. Unable to repay 30 million won, he contemplated a drastic decision on the factory rooftop but was comforted by Kang Tae-pung and the employees' heartfelt support. Dabontek, possessing various patents and surveillance cameras, secured a contract with Kang Tae-pung on the spot.
However, Pyo Hyun-joon's schemes continued. Although Kang Tae-pung managed to repay the 30 million won thanks to the Dabontek deal, he grew suspicious upon seeing Pyo Hyun-joon leaving the bank after the credit union closed earlier than usual, leading to a default. He discovered that the appraisal process for the factory's seizure and auction was being conducted by Mark, Pyo Hyun-joon's foreign associate, and became furious.
The Typhoon Company employees devised a plan to sneak into Pyo Sang-seon's company at night to uncover the contract details between Pyo Hyun-joon and Mark. Baek Song-jung distracted attention outside while Oh Mi-sun and Go Ma-jin, played by Lee Chang-hoon, stole the keys. Gu Myung-gwan, played by Kim Song-il, who was on patrol, witnessed Ha Sil-jang, played by Kim Do-young, carrying a tray out of a warehouse and suspected Pyo Bak-ho's confinement.
Inside Pyo Sang-seon's office, Kang Tae-pung found his father Kang Jin-young's nameplate, which fueled his anger. He met Cha Seon-taek, played by Kim Jae-hwa, who was already searching the office, and they escaped together. While Baek Song-jung turned off the lights in the control room, Kang Tae-pung used the nameplate to fend off the staff's batons and, with Cha Seon-taek's help, safely exited the company. During their escape, Kang Tae-pung discovered a promissory note hidden inside the broken nameplate, the very document he had been searching for. Though initially disheartened, he realized it had been close by all along, and the employees rejoiced, anticipating a counterattack in the next episode.
Meanwhile, Oh Mi-ho, played by Kwon Han-sol, broke up with her ex-boyfriend Woo Tae-min, handing a business card from an entertainment company to Wang Nam-mo, played by Choi Joon-young, and said, "Don't use me as an excuse. That's what you really want to do," before walking away.
