Synopsis
Ex-criminal kingpin reincarnated as bullied teen seeks redemption in high school, confronting past violence and new cruelty.
Lee Gangjin was once the most feared and respected figure in the criminal underworld, having clawed his way to the top through sheer strength and determination. But when everything he built is suddenly torn away from him, he finds himself given a second chance at life - waking up in the body of Lee Kangjin, a bullied high school student who had reached his breaking point. Now trapped in this new life, Gangjin must navigate the unfamiliar world of high school while carrying the weight of his past experiences. As he struggles to adapt to his drastically different circumstances, he begins to see the parallels between the violence of the streets and the cruelty of school life. Determined to make things right this time, he sets out on a path that will challenge everything he once believed about power, loyalty, and redemption. (Source: Kakao Entertainment, translated)
