Song Joong-ki reprises his role as an anti-hero in JTBC’s upcoming reincarnation drama Reborn Rich. On October 14, JTBC released a trailer for Reborn Rich, starring Song Joong-ki, Shin Hyun-been, and Lee Sung-min. Reborn Rich, Song Joong-latest ki’s drama, delves into themes of rebirth and vengeance. The fantasy-retribution story, based on the online book, is set in the 1980s and revolves around a chaebol family’s secretary, Yoon Hyun-woo, and his desire for vengeance against the family for whom he works.
The secretary’s thirst for vengeance resurrects him in the next life, and he takes birth in the same family as their youngest son, vowing to punish those who brought him grief in his previous life.
The teaser also calls into question the protagonist’s motivations:
“Is bringing reborn a gift or a nightmare?”

In Reborn Rich, Song Joong-ki, the youngest son of a rich family, has hidden objectives.
Song Joong-ki portrays Yoon Hyun-woo, the devoted secretary of the Sunyang Group family, who is killed after being crushed under a bus. He was also implicated in the company’s misappropriation before his death. Betrayed, he is reincarnated as the family’s youngest son, Jin Do-joon, and swears for revenge on those who have wronged him. He has a hidden agenda to destroy the Sunyang Group for assaulting him.
Kim Tae-hee (not to be confused with the actress of the same name) and new writer Jang Eun-Jae wrote the drama. Previously, Kim Tae-hee wrote Designated Survivor: 60 Days and Sungkyunkwan Scandal. Fans are eager to see Song Joong-ki reprise his role as an anti-hero and have flocked to social media to express their excitement.
A fan enthusiastically jots down their thoughts:
“This isn’t a practice, Song Joong-ki has returned!”
The teaser creates a tense environment in which each cast member expresses their deepest feelings. Jin Yang-chul, the CEO of Sunyang Group, will be played by veteran actor Lee Sung-min. He has spent the most of his life in abject poverty, and he has fought tirelessly to rise up the social levels. As a result, he has become brutally ambitious and ferociously competitive, with just one aim in mind: to increase his wealth.
Shin Hyun-been of Hospital Playlist fame will play anti-corruption probe prosecutor Seo Min-young, who comes from a well-known legal family.
She is a Sunyang Group enemy who has been tipped to play a key part in exposing their terrible actions to the public. Unsurprisingly, she has acquired the moniker “Dark Reaper of the Sunyang Group.”
The dramatic poster for Song Joong-ki’s forthcoming drama
The next drama by Song Joong-ki promises a dramatic group poster with all 14 members of the Sunyang family. All of the family members, spanning several generations, are sitting together on the poster, yet one individual is coloured differently. Jin Do-joon, the family’s youngest son, is the reincarnation of Yoon Hyun-woo, their secretary. The following text appears underneath the poster: “Reborn as the lineage of the family who murdered me,” piques viewers’ interest.”
