Synopsis
Disabled officer Gwak Lee masters Jade Temple System, vows to become true warrior after recovery.
Gwak Lee, an ordinary military officer, loses the ability to use his arms and legs after being brutally beaten by Ilhyeon Gwan of Shinmaryeon clan. In the depths of despair, Gwak starts learning the "Jade Temple System," thinking he has nothing left to lose. After mastering the ultimate somatic technique, his body recovers from the disability. And now, Gwak promises to himself that he will not live as an ordinary martial artist as he was in the past, and continues to train in order to become a true warrior. (Source: KENAZ)
