This was so close to being a 9.5
To make this review more fun: drink every time I say disappoint. LOLI honestly was going to give this show a high rating up until episode 16. I'm just so disappointed in the ending. I loooveed the concept of him being able to go back in time and change the future. So for him to jump back into his first life at the end was the worst.
I don't even know how to properly express how disappointed I am from how the writers decided to end the show. Everything was coming to a close and he was right at the precipice of taking over Soonyang and officially becoming chairman. Only for him to wake up in a hospital after being shot in the head and none of it was real. This is not a plot twist that is going to grab your viewers or please your audience. This was just disappointing overall.
What I did like was that he ended up building up Miracle Investment again when he wakes up and trying to go back to living the life he was before. But yeah.... I would recommend watching this up until when he calls his gf to meet up and hops in the car. (make up your own ending because I promise you if you keep watching, you'll feel the same amount of disappointment that I'm feeling now.)

Revenge of the chaebol's youngest grandson
Wow, this drama is really recommended!
The story idea for the Korean drama Reborn Rich is very telling, which is about the Samsung chaebol which is certainly closely related to the lives of Korean people.
It was San Kyeong who caught the idea and arranged it into a riveting story through the web novel "Chaeboljib Maknaeadeul” published from February 20, 2017 to January 11, 2018 via Kakao. Then visualized it coherently to present the Korean drama Reborn Rich which was able to hypnotize the audience.
Although there are some hollow scenes anyway. Like the accident that happened to Jin Yang-Cheol. Can a chaebol go on a business trip without an escort? He controls the Korean economy you know. His death could shake up the Korean stock market.
The incidental scene is also quite disturbing. One of them was when Jin Do-Jun was tugging at the Soonyang Card company's offer with Jin Dong-Ki, uncle number 2.
Then, when you called uncle number 2, how come it was so fitting for Jin Do-Jun to visit uncle number 1? So that Jin Do-Jun can go around and get high selling points for the Soonyang Card.
But that's it, right? It's also a drama. It takes a coincidence factor to create an exciting story. Because Lee Sung-Min's acting as the owner of Soonyang, can cover all the shortcomings of the Korean drama Reborn Rich.
Yup, Lee Sung-Min became the star of the Korean drama Reborn Rich! His acting as the overlord of the Soonyang empire is to be admired. Starting from acting angry, sad, laughing happily, and proud to see the success of his grandson.
The epic scene is Lee Sung-Min's angry and embarrassed face when he is in the elevator and unconsciously pees in his pants due to his illness. Like losing a war after saying:
Managing a company is like an endless war
The place he had to kill first
To survive
Really hoping that Lee Sung-Min will get the 2023 Baeksang Arts Awards, completing his award winnings in previous years such as the 2019 Baeksang Arts Awards, 2018 Daejong Film Awards, and many more.
What about Song Joong Ki? Mmmm…..I'm still not comfortable with the thickness of the makeup to the point where I want to let go because it's like a second skin. Hahaha….??
The love story of Jin Do-Jun (Song Joong-Ki) and Seo Min-Yeong (Shin Hyun-Bin) is also disturbing. Similar to a piece of the story attached to the entire Korean drama Reborn Rich. It doesn't matter. It's not effective, and the chemistry is really weak.
However, apart from the love story that should sweeten the Korean drama Reborn Rich, this drama is really recommended. Its strength lies precisely in the ability of the aging actor, Lee Sung-Min to translate the character of the owner of the Soonyang kingdom.
As well as the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren that melts the heart.

One of the only times you should trust the low reviews
This sucked. I'm not a fan of shows like this and I thought it would be a good reincarnation/reborn show with revenge but most of the time it felt more like a Wall Street show. The ending sucked so bad, I can't imagine why someone in the comments said this show is a masterpiece. This has to be one of the worst shows I've seen. I stuck it out to the end since I wanted to give it a chance, but I was bored. It's a waste of time.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Yejibros we were edged by this Kdrama.
Yejibros we think that the story was good for the first 15 episodes. The build up was nice and the plot was intricate enough for us to be invested in it. The acting from the cast was top notch as well, especially for the grandfather. We also think that the OST was good. However, our main gripe with this drama is that it is just an edge session where the show writer needlessly wrapped it up for some unknown reason. It should have been done into a two-part series or a two season show. It defeats the whole premise and title of the show by having that atrocious ending.Yejibros, we got edged and we did not like it.

Interesting storyline but the ending .........
Pros: Interesting storyline and plot- love the grandfather and grandson interaction.
- the way history unfolds and you get to see how they incorporate it into the story
- fast paced
- Lee Sung Min definitely shone in this drama and has no doubt garnered even more fans after this
Cons:
- ML portraying himself as a student. Kdramas are mostly like this and sometimes, they can get away with it. Like the leads in Our Beloved Summer. Those two really looked good in their school uniforms.
- FL. Boring boring boring. Not only her looks, but also her fashion styling and her acting. Don't think she is cut out to be a lead.
From what I have seen in the comments online, many agree that she was not suitable for this role. Her line delivery is predictably boring. She can't even pass as a prosecutor. A male actor would have been better.
- Chaebols fighting over dominance and money. A frequent trope in kdramas. Different actors but still the same greed and money grubbing issues. A bit tiring in its repitiion, but SJK on screen is definitely a worthy watch
- The ending was a big DUH for me. I don't know the actual webtoon ending, but this one AAARRRGGHH... Seriously, is it just me who finds it weird that no one even wondered why Do Jun looked exactly like Hyun Woo????

Everything Spoiled with a single Episode...
Reborn Rich is the perfect example for how a simple ending episode can ruin all the 16 episodes experience for a drama.. Before I begin i want to Ask the writer why....? For what...? Actually where did your thoughts go wrong in the ending episodes...?Sad to say this but it is probably the worst ending i ever witnessed in my kdrama career.. A complete let down finale episode.
Until E15 it was brilliant. I meant for studies behind the long lasting journey of the past of soonyang, all the business, tactics and share market and family succession war, every single detail looks super awesome. Also the character development of each and every character. The brilliant jin do jin and his greed, his fire, his swag all the things which i saw through the whole E15 made me wow. And am curious about the ending..but it was nothing and just like every other kdrama may be worse than that.
Logically everything was good. Of course it's a fantasy concept, so you have to accept some things and it was okay till the finale. But in episode 16 everything related to the logic became shit. I have many questions about many things.. and the writer wants to hurry and conclude everything very soon without explaining any of that..
Anyway i actually didn't expect my review would be like this. I was really frustrated and disappointed at the moment. Nothing more to say to be honest i can't accept that ending.. that's all..
Only my personal view...

One of the best Kdrama!
I know the drama still on going and not reach the end yet but my hand is itchy to give some review. I don’t care what the ending will be but from my personal view, this drama is daebakk! Awesome! Song Jong Ki and all the stars in this drama were awesome and cool! Applaused!For some people, I am sure they will get confuse, blur and boring because this story more focused on business and for some scene, you will not understand at all what are they talking about. Nah, forget about it. Just focus on the way they were acting and I am impressed how they carried their own role effectively especially for Jong ki and his grandfather (I forgot his name. Lee Soo Man? Or Lee Sung Man?) Song Joon Ki really never disappointed.
And, Do Jun parents later after he reborn were handsome and beautiful. What a good match parents. Ngeee~ I’m not sure if this drama was based on true story. I have no idea. But I really like this drama. Whatever ending this drama would be, I will just accept it because from the start i watch this drama, I just focused on their good acting. And one more thing. I agreed when they said about the function-less of the heroin. Whatever. Enjoy watching!

Amazing plot with great acting and cinematography
From the same director (Jeong Dae Yoon) from Designated Survivor: 60 DaysHas the same lead actor (Song Joong Ki) from Vinchenzo and Descendant of the Sun
Each episode ends with a cliffhanger
Plot is 11/10
In my Top 5 Kdrama list
Adapted from the web novel "Youngest Son of a Conglomerate" by San Gyung

Title is more interesting than the story
The idea is fun almost like a plot from a Manga. Sadly the direction is a bit boring and predictable. The male lead always plays the same kind of roles. The only people that vote this 10/10 are clearly fan girls of his. While he is nice to watch I found it very similar to other roles he’s played. Just like a Manga that goes back in time. The story unfolds in not a very interesting route when the male lead seemingly has almost everything under his control.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Not Good ?Enough
Korean Drama " Reborn Rich " is a revenge drama with a time travel trop.The drama is quite intense right from the start, with some intriguing characters. But, those who dominated were the main lead (obviously) and the grandfather. Their dynamics were on point and the drama mainly moved around them. The rest of the family members were all deliciously despicable.
However, the drama got quite boring after a while. The time jumps were not smoothly handled, and the romantic subplot was boring. The plot twists, in addition, were overused and that pattern of having a big plot twist in the end of each episode was tiring.
So, overall, three out of ten.

REBORN RICH
It's quite interesting how this film turned out in the end, to be honest, I was waiting for what the author would do to get out of the past life mess they got into in the first place but kudos to them they got out of it quite well. Many reviews have been talking about how bad the ending is or how bad the story is because it's completely different from the webtoon. I don't read webtoonsand I don't really care about it that much either. I'm a movie critic, I don't care about the actors or the directors I just watch movies to feel good and give my honest opinions about them. Now let's get into the Review.
1. HIS PAST FAMILY - He went to see his family, their restaurant, and everything before his mother died. if he was that concerned about them knowing about their Money woes, Why didn't he just give some money to his former parents...everything would have been easy tbh. You have over 200mil dollars and you still want your past Dad to keep earning that little amount in his AHJIN MOTORS job? That's ridiculous to me. You can say he wasn't too attached to them because he has a new family now but it's not that easy because he basically grew up with them so I feel there would still be an ounce of affection towards them.
2. WHY HIM? - During the course of the movie, I was curious too as to why he, why Hyeon woo because he wasn't related to them in any way so why was he chosen to relive the past life of Do Jun. Well, in the end, we got to know he was at the crime scene so I guess it is because 1. he was the accomplice at the crime scene 2. he had no information about jin do jun. 3. he was another victim of their evil doings.
3. I sympathize with the Grandfather of Soonyang Fr. Watching your children and grandchildren doing wrongful deeds because of inheritance and even being scared for your life because they're trying to kill you is not a good sight one wishes to see.
4. THE ENDING - It was good everything was a dream cos I'd been thinking about how the author would get out of this. it was a nice way to make it seem like repentance. I loved it.
5. HIS LOVE LIFE - I love how his feelings were portrayed in this movie, very short and simple. Those complaining about his love life and how disconnected they felt watching him and the prosecutor are not to be judged either, I understand, But if you've never been in this kind of love you won't really know how it feels. I've been in that kind of love and that was exactly how it felt. It is love to them, the simple things, the little conversations, we all have different ways of expressing our love and that was their way. Besides, the drama isn't about their love life but the life of Do Jun.
As for the final nail in the coffin, the recorded conversation that ended everything. It's an absolute joke and I think it was disrespectful of the writers and authors to think we were fools. To think a flip phone in 2004 can automatically record a conversation as soon as a call was made was absolutely RIDICULOUS.
All in all, it was a very good drama with a good story and moments. like all other Korean dramas out there its ending was not good.
But is REBORN RICH worth the 8.5 rating...Absolutely.
PS: Don't mind my Rewatch value, I can't and I've never watched a movie twice. I'd rather sleep than do that.
