Summary: Since middle school, Yeongha has lived his life using the way of the fist. With his unmatched strength, he managed to reign over the schools near him. However, Yeongha soon begins to doubt his strength and question himself as a person, after suddenly being humiliatingly beaten down, alongside with his crew, by a lone stranger wearing a red-colored gym jacket. Unable to cope with the loss due to his pride, Yeongha tracks the attacker down, and sees him entering an underground fighting place named PVP, where he is the king.

If you've enjoyed Hajime No Ippo, Kengan Ashura or any other ... delinquency story that involves martial art tournaments with a MC as an underdog, then this story is for you.

Been reading this manhwa since early 2022 and it has grown to be one of my favorite manhwa stories. The artstyle is unique for manhwa and has a pretty consistant quality to it (for the male characters and action scenes).

The characters for me are the strongest part of the manhwa. Younghas journey to become the strongest so he can fight for the weak is a bit corny and foolish but thats part of the charm. Whilst hes someone who looks intimidating he still has a good heart. Hanlim Lim is another contender for one of ny favorites due to how strong her writing is ... despite her limited screentime in season one. Her ties to Suho Kang is handled well and their story explains why she was the way she was in the beginning of the story.

The overall aesthetic of Hanlim gym is a unique one and it gives off vibes similar to tekken and kengan asura. I feel if youre a fan of either of those series id say check it out. Personal 9 to me but a high 8/10 overall. Especially for a manhwa.
