Summary:

In the realm of high finance, a pair of bankers stands out for their prowess. A savvy and celebrated banking professional and his protégé are well-known for their achievements. However, the protégé engineers a strategic career move by orchestrating the transfer of his mentor to an overseas division. Tragically, the mentor's life takes a dramatic turn when his plane goes down.

Surviving the crash, the banking guru wakes up to a bewildering reality: he now inhabits the body of a young man from the 1990s, who lives under the care of his aunt. As he navigates his new life, he witnesses his protégé getting uncomfortably close to his own spouse and begins flirting with a wealthy young heiress.

Eager to reclaim what he has lost, the protagonist forms an unlikely alliance with an elderly gentleman who has faced a similar bizarre fate of body-switching. Together, they delve into the mystery of their predicaments, hoping to revert to their original selves. Their quest reveals shocking secrets, including that the young man's true heritage links him to an influential banker.

Driven by revelations and a desire for vengeance, the duo devises a plot. However, things take a turn when the protagonist's former protégé ends up in a severe accident, leading to a cascade of realizations and remorse.

In pursuit of redemption and resolution, the trio navigates treacherous social and familial waters. The former mentor starts anew at the lowest echelons of banking, intent on working his way up, while his protégé disrupts a major engagement, and their elderly accomplice sows discord within a powerful family. As this intergenerational confrontation unfolds, the characters find themselves forming a surprising and transformative new reality.
