"All winds are in ten-minute sustained standards unless otherwise stated." - that's in the first note. Why do you have "standards" there? Is that word needed? Perhaps you should mention that is the wind speed of choice by the JMA?
Given that you say it was the strongest storm to hit the Korean Peninsula in (nearly) a decade, you should say how strong it was at landfall in the lede.
Added measured gusts to the intro.

Any status on the missing in North Korea?
I've been periodically checking, but there's nothing on it.

"On August 18, an area of showers and thunderstorms associated with trough about 520 km (320 mi) west-southwest of Guam." - that's not a complete sentence, and you should put "a" before trough.
"In light of the improved structure" - I don't think "in light" is the appropriate wording. "Due" would work fine. You use the same phrase later in the MH.
"By the morning of August 22, the typhoon was characterized by a large central dense overcast with extensive banding features to the south" - that's almost identical to a sentence you said a few lines before. I think it's redundant.
" A second anticyclone developed over the center of Bolaven later that day and enhanced the cyclone's poleward outflow." - does this mean there were two anticyclones over a storm? Or was this to differentiate from the anticyclone that caused the shear? I'm assuming the latter, but can you confirm they were actually two separate anticyclones?
Yes, it's a second, separate anticyclone as the wording suggests.

"several additional feeder bands formed along the south side of the circulation." - this is the third time you mention outflow, or something, to the south :P
Not sure what you want me to do here :P

"atmospheric conditions became increasingly hostile towards tropical development" - is it still development after the storm had peaked? I think you could cut "toward tropical development"
You mention Typhoon Tembin for the first time in a brief sentence regarding Philippine impact, and yet they were active for much of the same time. Did they have any interaction? Fujiwhara?
Looking into it now, I'll add some more info later (there are mentions of "binary interaction" that controlled Tembin's path but had little bearing on Bolaven)

Bolaven basically didn't feel anything from Tembin, it just yanked it in a counter-clockwise loop. Added a sentence on it.

"The majority cancellations were domestic flights" - put "of" in there
Was there a reason damage wasn't as bad as expected in Okinawa?
I can speculate with OR but I can't add it in :P

"The first area in South Korea impacted by Typhoon Bolaven was Jeju Island." - given this starts the new paragraph, maybe just detail it a bit by saying the island is offshore the southwestern portion of the country?
"Throughout the country, at least 19 people were killed by the storm and hundreds were evacuated" - this sentence seems unusual, linking deaths with evacuations.
