The drama may be tagged as "fantasy" but the execution, the directing and the acting seem so real and believable. The fact that real sociopolitical events are interspersed with the story makes the drama more compelling.

Song Joong-ki once again chose a very good drama. Initially I was apprehensive that Reborn Rich may be similar to Vincenzo, his last drama prior to Reborn Rich where his character left an indelible mark on me, but was I in for a surprise. He tackled his character differently in Reborn Rich so I never saw him as Vincenzo but as Jin Do-jun/Yoon Hyun-woo. He is likewise supported by veteran actors whose performances are top caliber, making Reborn Rich such a treat for all Kdrama lovers.

Kudos to the whole Reborn Rich team.

I loved Song Joon Ki in Vincenzo and when I saw he was starring in this new drama, I wanted to see it. Each week, I had to wait for new episodes and it was really tough waiting because they were so good! I could rewatch this whole series again and probably like it even more the 2nd time around.

The fantasy part (a guy is shot and somehow is reborn about 20 years earlier as a grandson of the Chairman of a huge conglomerate in Korea) is just the kind of thing I love. These types of scenarios don't always work as well as I would like, but in this case it was handled just perfectly.

I am going to find out who wrote this script and look for more by this person.

Since ep 01, this drama kept me intrigued. So many amazing K actors with a strong brilliant storyline...quite a rare occasion for a drama lover. Everything was well till ep 15, as an audience I could feel the protagonist. But they ruined it completely. Never once did I imagine that ending would be so cliche and depressing. They didn't justify it at all. I feel betrayed tbh. And way disappointed rn. Nobody treats a story like this -_- Only giving it 7 stars for those 15 episodes....efforts and work of actors should be appreciated.

I hope this series gets to remake again with a different ending.

This would have been a 10/10 drama but the way it ended was just a complete lack of effort by the scriptwriter. It's as if the Game of Throne creators managed to get their hands on this script too.

You've got a great cast, such solid actors who were able to convey so much with every glance and action. The grandfather in particular was a force of nature. The premise of the show was fantastic, you could do so much with the plot! I'm sure everyone has asked themselves at some point, what they would do if they could go back in time to relive the past with their memories intact. So many possibilities, especially when one has the knowledge of what's to come! Yet the scriptwriter had to ruin everything with that ridiculous and lackluster ending that spat on everything that the earlier episodes had set up. Honestly they should be ashamed of themselves for that last episode.

I watched a couple episodes and thought it was interesting, fun, good cast (so many recognizable faces - or maybe so few top ranked Korean actors?), well shot, good locals, basically everything to make it worth watching. I'm about to watch episode 11 and find myself wishing they released the entire season in a single go. This really has been a fantastic series, I had to come back and increase my rating and write this review. Too many Korean shows start very well then begin falling off in the later stages (Bad Crazy, Aelliseu, Ghost Doctor) but so far this show has only gotten better. This is better than some very good shows like Vincenzo, Zombie Detective, Weak Hero Class 1... and a bunch of shows I never finished. Hoping this continues with top quality.

And I wish Song Joong-ki would work a bit on his English accent :-)
