A bright morning sun streams through the window as the leaves outside sway gently in the wind.
Staring into the mirror in disbelief, a pajama-clad teenage boy murmurs,"What… what happened to my body?"
To his utter shock, he has awakened in the body of Jin Do-jun, the youngest grandson of the powerful Soonyang Group's chairman. Last night, he was just an ordinary corporate drone, drowning his sorrows in soju while hate-watching the K-drama Reborn Rich.
Now… he's literally in it.
A rebirth? A second chance? He's not about to waste it.
He remembers every plot hole, every infuriating decision the original protagonist made—especially turning down the seductive, wine-and-candlelit advances of his sister-in-law! That scene alone nearly made him hurl his remote at the screen.
"Do-jun, are you blind? The sister-in-law was literally waiting for you to say the word!"Refusing her not only insulted her pride but turned a potential ally into a powerful enemy. Foolish.
And don't get him started on the "noble" nonsense of sacrificing billions for pride or playing nice with enemies. The original Do-jun was all bark and no bite.
But this time, things will be different.
This Do-jun has only one goal: make money.First, though, he has to survive his childhood and the dysfunctional chaos of the chaebol family.
Three months pass, and we see Do-jun preparing to attend his grandfather Chairman Jin Yang-chul's birthday celebration—a massive event full of tension, politics, and opportunity.
But just as he begins thinking of ways to fund his first moneymaking scheme, his father drops a bomb:He's blown 300 million won on an art film… that only earned 3 million. Oh, and the family is 17 billion won in debt.
Yeah—he's definitely not counting on that side of the family for help anymore.
As they drive to the mansion "Jeongsimjae," Do-jun reflects on the hierarchy of the Jin family, from legitimate heirs to disgraced outcasts (like his own father), and starts mapping his next move.
As luxury cars pull up to the grand estate, it's clear:This isn't just a family gathering—It's the first battlefield.
