'Reborn Rich' Episode 2 Recap

The second episode continues with Yoon Hyun Woo, who was able to meet Soonyang Group's chairman, Jin Yang Cheol as his youngest grandson Jin Do Joon.

In addition, he and his family went to visit the chairman at his iconic estate, Jeongsimjae for his 60th birthday.

In "Reborn Rich" episode 2, Jin Do Joon personally witnessed the incident involving the heir, Jin Sung Joon, who at his present life is the vice chairman of Soonyang Group.

Do Joon saw Sung Joon stole an artifact and broke a porcelain vase after surprisingly seeing him.

Sung Joon tried to pin the situation to Do Joon, but he disallowed it causing a commotion. The duo's parents along with their uncles and aunts check the situation and were told by Sung Joon that it was Do Joon who broke the vase but he showed them that Sung Joon not only broke a vase but also stole an artifact.

The exact situation was written in Jin Yang Chul's autobiography and was in awe of how he was able to experience it firsthand.

Despite making a mark, he wanted to personally apologize to the chairman, but Jin Yang Chul refused to see his grandson.

However, what caught his attention is how the kid mocked the adults by giving his opinion regarding the election, which the chairman heard.

It was something about the upcoming election with Jin Do Joon suggesting that the chairman should give his support, not to the two leading candidates.

After a news flash rocked the nation, Jin Yang Chul was impressed with how Jin Do Joon knew about politics at his age.

With this, he gave him a quiz, and in return, the chairman would give him what he wanted.

He asked a simple riddle that Jin Do Joon wasn't able to answer.

The next day, he was able to analyze the question; however, it is also the day that a bomb attack would kill the chairman.

To prevent this, he passed on a message answering the riddle and is confident that the chairman would change his flight due to this.

Thankfully, Jin Do Joon's answer made a mark for the chairman, and immediately booked a flight to Seoul.

Not only did Jin Do Joon save the chairman, but he also won his heart with his smart move.
