Realism: Rise of GHOST
"The throne of the underworld sits empty, and the crown belongs to a Ghost."
In the neon-lit, ruthless streets of Seoul, peace is nothing but an illusion. For years, the legend of the supreme mafia boss’s only child—known in the deepest shadows of the criminal underworld as the "Ghost"—was buried and forgotten. Everyone believed he was dead.
Park Leo wanted nothing more than to escape that bloody heritage. He tried to hide his monstrous conditioning, locking away his lethal martial arts background to live the quiet life of an ordinary student at Shinwoo High. But in a world ruled by corrupt elites and violent teenage syndicates, weakness invites predators.
When the notorious crew 'Dismantle' pushes him past his limits, Leo's fragile facade shatters, exposing his terrifying existence to the world.
Now, the secret is out. The balance of power among the city's major crews has completely fractured. From the calculating masterminds of the West District to the brutal enforcers of the South, every apex predator is locking their eyes on the boy who single-handedly shook the streets. And lurking in the darkness is Mr. X, a ghost from the past with a scarred face and a lethal obsession to hunt Leo down.
With no normal life left to return to, Leo must accept the blood in his veins. To protect the ones he loves and survive the executioner’s noose, he will have to climb through the ranks of the underworld, forge dangerous alliances, and conquer the four major districts.
The normal teenager is gone. It is time for the Ghost to rise.
