*** “Reborn Rich” is topping streaming platforms in the Asian market, according to Hong Kong-based streaming service Viu TODAY, Thursday December 1st. Six episodes have been released so far, and the show quickly became “the most watched show” in Indonesia, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand and the Philippines over the span of the past 10 days. Viu, which currently holds the exclusive rights to distribute the drama to foreign markets, commented that the series’ popularity is noteworthy considering that K-dramas which have gained global popularity before were usually focused romance, while this drama generally focuses on revenge and corporate infighting.  The drama releases three episodes per week, which, I think is a contributor to the show’s quick rise in viewership.   :heart4:

*** Can "Reborn Rich" reach or surpass the 15% rating soon since attention is focused on the rating performance of this drama. Its rating increase through episodes and recorded 14.9% in episode 6, which aired in the second broadcasting week. Therefore, I am expecting the new episode 7 this week to surpass 15%.   :heart1:

Exclusive Interview: Song Joong Ki Talks About His “Reborn Rich” Characters, Chemistry With Co-Stars, And More

 

Exclusive Interview: Song Joong Ki Talks About His “Reborn Rich” Characters, Chemistry With Co-Stars, And More

 

Song Joong Ki has taken time for an exclusive interview with Soompi!

 

Ahead of the recent premiere of “Reborn Rich,” the actor sat down to share insight into the drama, what he is like as an actor, and more.

 

Check out his responses below:

 

In this drama, you had to play dual roles. How did you express the difference between the two characters Yoon Hyun Woo and Jin Do Joon? What was the most difficult aspect about playing these characters?

While preparing for “Reborn Rich,” I placed a lot of importance on physical appearance. When expressing the character Yoon Hyun Woo, I wore glasses for the first time in a drama, and when I was portraying Jin Do Joon, I prepared a lot of props and outfits that college students would have actually worn and used at that time. At first, I also thought it was one person playing two roles, but because of the fact that Yoon Hyun Woo entered into Jin Do Joon’s body, I came to the conclusion that I am playing one character. Afterwards, I could navigate [the drama] and act more comfortably.

If you were to be born again like in the drama, what kind of life would you want to live other than being an actor? Also, if you were to go back to the past, what age would you want to go back to?

It is hard to imagine anything else other than being an actor. If I could go back in time, I would like to go back to my freshman year of university.

How similar are you to Yoon Hyun Woo?

I think about 60 to 70 percent. I feel we are alike because I have somewhat cold and nonchalant sides within me, but the difference is that I laugh a lot while Yoon Hyun Woo doesn’t.

When starting a new project, do you have any special way of becoming closer to the other actors?

I think I tend to show my candid side. I think the most important thing is having conversations, and I try to find common interests while having meals or working out together.

The billiards match with Jin Yang Chul (Lee Sung Min) in one of the teasers was quite memorable. How was your chemistry with actor Lee Sung Min?

I had very natural chemistry with Lee Sung Min. He often put me first and was very considerate of me, so we could match each other’s acting even without elaborate conversations. I was very much looking forward to working with him, and it was indeed a great experience.

Viewers are curious about the relationship between your character and Shin Hyun Been‘s character which has yet to be unveiled (at the time the interview took place). How was your chemistry with Shin Hyun Been?

I met actress Shin Hyun Been for the first time through this project. Shin Hyun Been has a very wide perspective, and she has an instinctive nature to be considerate of others. She helped me a lot, and our chemistry was great.

There have been a lot of dramas with the theme of revenge. What makes “Reborn Rich” special?

I think it’s a bit more interesting because it’s revenge that makes you think more about the process and self-reflect rather than revenge where the outcome is important.

What do you consider the most when choosing a project?

I think it is the project’s narrative. I tend to think the direction of how the story flows is the most important. I try to select projects that are interesting and worth watching for viewers.

What do you look forward to the most as an actor when starting a new project?

It would be the people I work with. I look most forward to creating the project together with new people including actors and staff members.

Please share a memorable event or the most interesting thing that occurred while filming!

The K-drama fans I met while filming in Turkey left the greatest impression on me. I was very surprised that the Turkish fans who came to watch have seen so many Korean dramas and that they even remember the details. I could feel that they love K-dramas a lot, so I don’t think I’ll ever forget that.

Please give a shout out to global fans who will be watching “Reborn Rich” through Soompi and Viki!

Hello! The narrative of “Reborn Rich” progresses as it introduces events that actually happened in Korean society since the 1980s. These incidents may be unfamiliar to global fans, but I think it will be more helpful and entertaining if you search about them on the Internet while watching the drama together. Please enjoy!

Song Joong Ki And Girls’ Generation’s Tiffany Face An Unexpected Crisis In “Reborn Rich”

JTBC’s “Reborn Rich” has shared an intriguing sneak peek of its upcoming episode!

 

“Reborn Rich” is a new JTBC fantasy drama starring Song Joong Ki as Yoon Hyun Woo, a loyal secretary to a chaebol family. When he dies after being framed for embezzlement by the very family that he had faithfully served, he is reborn as the family’s youngest son Jin Do Joon, and he plots to take over the company in order to exact revenge.

 

Spoilers

Previously on “Reborn Rich,” Jin Do Joon was devastated after losing his mother from his original life for the second time. The shocking knowledge that Jin Yang Chul (Lee Sung Min)’s greed and corruption led to her death made him more determined than ever to take his revenge.

 

Pulling the strings from behind the veil of his investment company Miracle, Jin Do Joon threw his support behind his uncle Choi Chang Je (Kim Do Hyun) and helped him successfully run for mayor. With the mayor of Seoul now in his corner, Jin Do Joon managed to beat out Soonyang Group and win the highly-coveted rights to oversee the development of the Sangam neighborhood. The episode ended on a major cliffhanger, with Jin Do Joon boldly revealing to his grandfather that he was Miracle’s majority shareholder.

 

In newly released stills from the drama’s next episode, the battle between Miracle and Soonyang grows fiercer than ever. However, while Jin Yang Chul and Jin Sung Joon (Kim Nam Hee) seem to be happily celebrating a welcome new development, the atmosphere at Miracle is visibly darker. Jin Do Joon looks worried as he pores over a map, and the matching expressions on Oh Se Hyun (Park Hyuk Kwon) and Rachel (Girls’ Generation’s Tiffany)’s faces suggest that not everything is going according to plan.

 

The contrasting vibes on the two sides of the battle raise the question of what kind of attack Jin Yang Chul has made—and what strategy Jin Do Joon will come up with in the face of the ensuing crisis.

The producers of “Reborn Rich” teased, “In Episode 7, Jin Yang Chul will set out to play a revenge match with his eldest grandson Jin Sung Joon by his side. The new side of the ‘Soonyang Republic’ that surfaces during this process will make Jin Do Joon feel a sense of crisis.”

 

“Please keep an eye on what kind of method—and whose help—Jin Do Joon uses to fight his way through this adversity.”

 

The next episode of “Reborn Rich” will air on December 3 at 10:30 p.m. KST.

According to Nielsen Korea, the eighth episode of “Reborn Rich” scored an average nationwide rating of 19.449 percent, marking an impressive 3.3 percent jump from the night before.

*** Viewers expressed their negative thoughts regarding the love line between Song Joong Ki and Shin Hyun Bin in 'Reborn Rich'. I agree with them, too. The love line itself is not convincing, it's totally unnecessary.  I can say they have no chemistry, i really see no spark with them or is it just me?  I don't even understand how they fell in love. Even there's no romance the story will proceed the same.  :getmygrooveon:
