=> Both are Song Joong Ki dramas, both are about revenge. The people SJK is doing a revenge against are very rich/high on the social ladder (at least during the time SJK character is doing the revenge). SJK did fantastic acting in The Innocent Man, here's hoping Reborn Rich has enough where SJK can show his acting ability.

Set in the early 12th century, war threatens to erupt across the land of Da Chu, and the Imperial court is filled with corruption and intrigue. The cruel Emperor and his corrupt cronies plot to kill the Empress Yao Mo Xin – and are successful in their malicious efforts. Meanwhile, other vindictive parties chase down Yao Mo Wan, the Empress’s younger sister. In the night full of mystery, the dead queen’s spirit enters the body of her younger sister, intent on taking revenge on people who wronged and poisoned her to death. The Empress in Yao Mo Wan's body, enters the Imperial Court, bent on seeking vengeance. She also meets (and falls for) Ye Jun Qing, a young Da Chu prince. As she discovers the scale of the corruption at court, she decides to do her best to see that Ye Jun Qing deposes the evil Emperor. She uses the best tools at her disposal: her wits and natural intelligence to help her beloved in getting the throne.
Both kdramas have great revenge plots that make your heart beat faster with each episode.
As a phoenix, the protagonists in both kdramas manage to rise stronger from their ashes, only to take revenge from the ones who caused their distress. Albeit one is more violent and blood-filled, they both have great arc developments and intense dynamics with other main characters (in "Reborn Rich" the Grandfather and Grandson), (in "My name" the female lead and the Mafia boss).
A cocktail that leaves you thirsty for such a bond, but with no desire for unnecessary romantic plots. They both have great melancholic OSTS that leave you with a bittersweet taste towards the end.
