Song Joong-ki replaces Lee Sung-min’s grandson in JTBC’s Reborn Rich
by tccolb
The first poster is out for JTBC’s upcoming fantasy Reborn Rich (previously Youngest Son of a Chaebol Family), assembling our ensemble cast in a big family portrait fresh from the 1980s.
The odd one out in the poster, of course, is our displaced hero Song Joong-ki (Vincenzo) who stars as Yoon Hyun-woo, personal secretary to the Soonyang Group’s leader. The conglomerate betrays him, though, forcing Hyun-woo to become a scapegoat for Soonyang. But he’s given an unexpected opportunity to take his revenge when he somehow finds himself in the body of the family’s youngest male – Jin Do-joon – back in the 1980s.
Lee Sung-min (Juvenile Justice) plays the esteemed head of the family as Jin Yang-chul. Coming from a poor background, he started out with nothing to his name and built the company from the bottom up. But even though he now enjoys great wealth and success, he remains mercilessly fixated on making more money.
Yang-chul’s three sons, eldest to youngest, are Yoon Je-moon (The King’s Affection), Jo Han-chul (The Law Cafe), and Do-joon’s dad Kim Young-jae (The Witch Is Alive). In the role of their wives, respectively, we have Kim Jung-nan (Snowdrop), Seo Jae-hee (Twenty Five Twenty One), and Do-joon’s mom Jung Hye-young (Snowdrop).
In the family portrait, we also get a look at Yang-chul’s wife Kim Hyun (Link: Eat, Love, Kill) and daughter Kim Shin-rok (One Ordinary Day) along with her husband Kim Do-hyun (Tracer). Moving onto the third generation, Yang-chul’s grandchildren – in addition to Do-joon – include Kim Nam-hee (The Law Cafe), Jo Hye-joo (A Love So Beautiful), and Do-joon’s brother Kang Ki-doong (The Witch’s Diner).
Although not featured in the newest poster, the drama also co-stars Shin Hyun-bin (Monstrous) as prosecutor Seo Min-young, who is nicknamed as Soonyang’s grim reaper.
Directed by PD Jung Dae-yoon (I’m Not a Robot, W-Two Worlds), scripts were co-penned by Kim Tae-hee (Designated Survivor: 60 Days, Sungkyunkwan Scandal) and Jang Eun-jae. JTBC drama Reborn Rich premieres next month on November 18, and is pioneering a new airing sequence of three days a week on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
