Live & Reborn: My 7-Year-Old Genius Goes Viral

About this drama

"Mason, a top-tier scientist, is reborn into the body of a 7-year-old boy who once suffered from school bullying. Determined to invent controlled nuclear fusion ahead of time to benefit Great Xia, he secretly conducts research on the technology at home. Meanwhile, his impoverished father, Leon, participates in a reality show to earn money for his son’s transfer to a new school. Through the show, Leon unexpectedly reunites with his ex-wife. Unbeknownst to Mason, their home is filled with cameras as part of the show. As the program airs, the inventions he creates in secrecy shock the entire nation. However, one of the show’s guests, Cici, relentlessly targets Leon, accusing him of inappropriate behavior and provoking widespread outrage online. In a reckless act, she even destroys Mason’s nuclear fusion device, unaware of the catastrophic consequences. Her actions enrage Professor Elio from the national academy. Cici’s son then claims he can replicate Mason’s invention and challenges him to a competition to prove who the real genius is. Mason accepts, and the contest revolves around controlled nuclear fusion. As the show and the competition progress, Mason is stunned to discover that his opponent can keep up with his reasoning and produce identical answers. Cici’s family accuses Mason of plagiarism, turning the guests, audience, and online commentators against him. With his sharp intellect, Mason quickly deduces the truth—his opponent has been copying him. With everyone’s support, he suppresses his rival and turns the tables, ultimately winning the contest. However, his true identity as a reborn scientist is exposed to the world, leaving everyone in awe. In the end, his father sacrifices himself for the sake of scientific progress, earning deep respect from all."
