On the way home from school, Kang Tuji meet Yu Sena accidentally. Yu Sena was apparently the daughter of Yu Jinhang who is the successor of the secret martial arts Gyukmundo. Yu Jinhang himself is the ninth successor of the Martial arts Gyukmundo who gets drunk because he has not found his successor yet. When he met Kang Tuji, Yu Jinhang regained his spirit again. Apparently, Kang Tuji have characteristics of the successor that he has been waiting for, and Kang Tuji started practicing Gyukmundo Martial arts.

Finally, the battle between Kang Tuji and Han Kang Ho is inevitable again, then the combatants were met.The fight was ended with Kang Tuji as the victory. And this time, Han Kang Ho acknowledge Kang Tuji`s power.

After the problems with Han Kang Ho finished, as nectar which always coveted by beetles, as well as Kang Tuji, always chased by the problem.
This time the source of the problem is the movement of Guryong, the school of athletes to the area where Ginsang high school, Kang Tuji`s school is located. The existence of this Guryong high school brings the inevitable conflict with Ginsang high school and other schools nearby.

Short story... there is a man named Ji Kang Hjuk who is famous for his skull emblem and he challenge Kang Tuji into a battle just to test his strength. Fortunately, this time, Kang Tuji`s fight was rescued by the police who arbitrated their battle.

On the other hand, Wusu Choi (which in fact, Kang Tuji who is harsh) busy himselves with his new situation, but he finally managed to meet with his body (which in fact is the original Wusu Choi) at the hospital. In there, Wusu Choi (Kang Tuji) who temporarily doesn`t have home and lived in the street, was given advice by Kang Tuji (Wusu Choi) to returned to his home.

And, he entered the real Wusu choi`s house which is apparently a rich kid, who is spoiled and loved by his mother so much. So, from that moment Wusu Choi enter the best private schools, where only rich and intelligent students could enter.

But, in the new place, according to his original character, began to be a gangster and start challenging the other students. Student Council members has been made unorganized and the school become disorderly since that. Even the student council`s chairman was hit. Then, many bad guys started to surround him to test his power. But unfortunately, this body has not been trained all this time.

***

If you look at the picture quality, this comic has good pictures, but a bit cruel indeed. Blood from the wounds that came out during a fight described by way of extreme but that makes the comic become more realistic. The idea of the story is good and not boring too. The story is not serious because there`s many jokes and silliness too XD
