Bae Joo Hyun

*Prologue* The Korean air enveloped Sarah James like a foreign shroud. An 18-year-old Nigerian, she had never imagined herself in this world. The strict norms and expectations threatened to suffocate her, but her love for K-dramas and K-pop sparked a curiosity that refused to be extinguished. Her heart, once full of hope, had been shattered by Yong Jo-sang's betrayal. The memories still lingered; he broke her heart even before she gave it to him. But fate, it seemed, had other plans. In the library, Sarah's eyes met Hyun Min's, and her world shifted. The brooding introvert's piercing gaze drew her in, and she found herself captivated by his quiet strength. Their awkward encounter belied the depth of his character; he was being a jerk, he had swooped the book she wanted and was even cold about it. Sarah soon discovered a hidden charm that left her breathless. Yet, Hyun Min's life was a complex web of obligations and expectations. His parents had bound him to Na Yeon, a girl chosen for him. They were to get married when they reached their second year of college. But Na Yeon's reputation was about to take a devastating hit. Chuchu's jealousy had unleashed a scandal that would change everything. As compromising photos of Na Yeon going to a hotel surfaced online, Na Yeon was devastated, couldn't bear the shame, and ended her life. But in the aftermath of Na Yeon's tragic demise, a sinister plot unfolded. The woman who is claimed to be Hyun Min's mother, driven by a deep-seated hatred of Sarah, would stop at nothing to keep them apart. But as the truth began to unravel, a shocking revelation turned everything upside down: the woman was not Hyun Min's real mother, And Sarah's own life was about to get even more complicated - her friend, Racy, was revealed to be a spy, tasked with keeping tabs on her and reporting back to Hyun Min's fake mother. racy was also interested in hyun min,and to get him..she had to do all that dirty work as hyun min fake mother had promised. But Hyun Min's heart already belonged to Sarah, and he was resolute in his defiance. With the web of deceit and lies tightening around them, would their love prevail, or would the weight of family obligations and the darkness of the past tear them apart? but then again who was hyun min's mother?

10 years since dungeons began to appear in the world. Humanity, on the brink of extinction, received a gift from God. They suppressed the monsters that emerged from the dungeons. Hyun, who was a victim of the initial dungeon emergence, now lives alone with his sister, Sera. For those who have reached the age of 17, it is the time when God's power manifests. Hyun, who wishes to obtain a good job and live a normal life with his sister, is forced to be swept away by the currents of the universe due to his 'Devour' job. How will the journey of a boy who has just risen and still has little experience unfold as he fights against the cruel fate that has been bound to him?

He gave everything. His strength, trust. His heart. And in return he got betrayal, death, and a bullet through the head. Lee Hyun Woo was supposed to be one of the rising stars of HEX, the top hunter academy. A rare Holy Magic user, chosen for greatness. But his own teammates stabbed him in the back, used him as fuel for a demonic seed, and threw his body into the abyss. He should have died. Instead… he woke up inside the cursed Abyssal Tower, barely alive, and face-to-face with a bratty little goddess, and a massive wolf named Fenrir. Now reborn as “Kim Na Yun,” no one knows who he is. Not his killers. Not his ex. Not even the academy that once welcomed him. But he remembers everything. And he’s not here to forgive. He’s here to take it all back. New name. New powers. New rules. This time, the one who was abandoned… will become the one they all fear.

In a world where dungeons and monsters invade through portals, hunters rise to fight back with swords, spells, and brute strength. But Jin Tae-Hyun, an F-class failure, is killed by a mutated monster—and awakens ten years in the past with an SSS-class skill hidden behind an F-rank label: **\[The Maker] — A skill that lets him craft weapons, armor, and accessories of any rarity.** From Common to Mythical. From basic swords to sentient, elemental blades. Jin chooses to hide his true power, forge his own path, and rise from the shadows. With each battle, he improves his gear, copies fighting styles, and builds a team of loyal allies. But when a hidden realm tied to ancient crafting appears, Jin’s journey begins to reshape the very world. The blacksmith of tomorrow isn't just a support role— **He's the one who builds legends.**

> What if you could farm stats, build muscle, earn money—and never lift a finger? Kim Do-hyun is a broke, chubby college gamer who awakens a skill so lame it’s practically a meme: Cloning (Lv. 1). But this "trash skill" turns out to be the biggest cheat in the awakened world—because when his clone trains, grinds, and suffers… Do-hyun gets stronger without doing anything. One body lives in bed. The other body becomes a legend. In a world ruled by stats, mana, and dungeons… Do-hyun is about to break the system from the shadows. --- Synopsis > In a world where 80% of humanity has awakened supernatural talents, life is a brutal competition. College loser Kim Do-hyun is barely surviving on game bots, instant noodles, and debt. That is, until a government-mandated awakening throws him into the spotlight… only to declare his power total trash. Cloning? Level one? Cooldown? One body? What a joke. But this clone is real. It sweats. It works. It eats. And when it trains… Do-hyun's stats increase. Now, while the clone grinds 24/7—running, working, even getting beat up—Do-hyun chills in bed, reaping the rewards. His strength rises. His body transforms. His life begins to change. But power attracts attention. And when an S-Rank hunter known only as The Jumper starts watching, Do-hyun realizes something terrifying: He might not be the only one cheating the system.

“Kangho refers to the world of martial artists, akin to the ‘jianghu’ in Chinese wuxia literature.” “The Martial World doesn’t belong to the strong—it belongs to those who endure until the end.” Lee Do-Hyun, an ordinary office worker. Trapped in a monotonous routine, he stumbles upon a mysterious book that changes his life forever. When he opens his eyes, he finds himself in a new world—the Martial World (Kangho)—reborn as the weakest of the weak. With no power to rely on, Do-Hyun is saved by Chun-Hyang at the Pungwolru, a house of pleasure that’s much more than it seems. There, he learns the ways of survival from women who have mastered the art of turning weakness into strength. Quick footwork, exploiting openings, and the psychology of battle—skills not meant for the strong, but for those determined to survive. Then, fate intervenes. Do-Hyun discovers a legendary blade—the Ego’s Sword—a weapon that chooses its own master. The blade whispers, “I will test your will.” With this cursed gift, Do-Hyun rises from obscurity, becoming a beacon of hope for the oppressed. His name spreads through the Martial World, and the once-mocked women of Pungwolru stand proud alongside him. But the Martial World doesn’t change so easily. • Rising prodigies who believe in the supremacy of raw strength • A corrupt leadership within the so-called “just” Beggar’s Sect • And secret powers scheming to revive the legacy of fallen gods… At the heart of these battles, Do-Hyun makes his stand: “I’ll shatter the rules of Kangho. I’ll show them the true meaning of strength.” Will he become the master of the sword—or will the sword master him? The story of a man who became the hope of the weak begins now. #MartialArts #Isekai #Swordmaster #UnderdogRising #ReformingTheMartialWorld
