Reborn in 1988: My Directionally Challenged Brother and I Break Up Our Parents' Coupledom

[Reborn] [Beloved by All] [Comedic] [Period] [Getting Rich] [Feel-Good Power Fantasy]

Synopsis

Lu Xingxing died of illness at thirty, only to learn that her lifelong suffering had all stemmed from her older brother getting lost on the road to the afterlife before he could be reborn.

The underworld kicks the siblings back to 1988 to be reborn in new bodies.

She becomes her biological father's younger sister, while her directionally challenged brother becomes her biological mother's younger brother.

Their parents, who suffered in their previous lives, are now falling in love after a blind date.

The siblings join forces, determined to break up the couple and find each of them a better match, so they can avoid the disastrous fate of their last life.

But fate keeps working against them. Every attempt to sabotage the romance turns into a matchmaking assist.

While she keeps trying to split up the couple, her hapless brother gets lost everywhere and creates one mortifying spectacle after another: a citywide search for a birthmark broadcast over the radio; neighbors taking turns escorting him home after he shows up at the wrong place for a date; and a school mix-up that lands him an invitation to bring his parents in.

At the same time, they seize the opportunities of the times to make money, repay the kindness of friends and family, expose the relatives who spread rumors back then, and complete the underworld's life-and-death mission.
