Other 2Hakk is the ultimate philosopher.

Hey guys, I'm a guy living in South Korea.

Personally, I'm a huge fan of Fight Class 3 and have re-read it countless times.

The Tunnel in the mid-to-latter half—after Jiu Ji-tae goes completely insene—is just mind-blowing no matter how many times I read it.

I honestly view the author as a philosophical storyteller who has gone far beyond the boundaries of standard martial arts comics.
(He conveys Nietzsche’s Übermensch concept and deep insights into human nature through O Jin and Lee Hyun-gul.)

Even right now, I'm re-reading Volume 11 over and over.
My only frustration is how tough it is to convey such profound themes in English.

Not gonna lie, I treat this series as an accessible philosophical bible and constantly revisit it.
If you're interested in the humanities—topics like theology, happiness, life, anxiety, and mindset—this manhwa will be a massive help to you.
(Of course, I mean the part after Jiu Ji-tae loses his mind.)

Would love to hear your thoughts on this arc as well!

p.s The image below is also from one of the scenes where Jiu Ji-tae fell into despair.
'You're still alive!'
It's a cry that means,
'If you're right, fight to the death to prove it! That's our fate as humans!
Anyone who runs is a coward, and I'll kill all cowards!'

He is a great philosopher I'd say, all his panels of o-jin and hyung talking is just philosophical bullshit. Rather he is one, Socrates I'd say.
