Reborn Rich Episode 5 Recap
Reborn Rich Episode 5 sees Song Joong Ki depicting the national crisis that will affect the whole country. Because he had already experienced it in his previous life, he managed to avoid being affected by it and therefore held hands with Oh Se-Hyun in creating Miracle Investment.
In the wake of repeated bankruptcies and surging restructurings of companies, Chairman Jin faced a situation where he had no choice but to acquire Ahjin Motors to save Soonyang Motors. However, the "winner’s curse" created by Jin Dojoon caught them by their ankles.

Dojoon has his own reasons why he is so obsessed with acquiring Ahjin Motors and not letting Soonyang Group take the company. This is to prevent his mother’s death. In his previous life, his mother died after his father got laid off from his job at Ahjin Motors.
However, public opinion calls Miracle Investment "speculative capital," making them execute their next move with difficulties. In response, Miracle Investment proposed a method of paying acquisition funds to Soonyang Motors in exchange for Ahjin Motors’ employment succession. Chairman Jin accepted it after much consideration.
As a result, Dojoon, who had resolved the layoffs of Ahjin Motors’ employees, which led to his mother’s death in his previous life, visited his old house again with hopes to see his mother once more. Despite this, his mother died, contrary to his expectations. Dojoon felt frustrated as he realized that he could not change the past.
