Lookism :The True King

Synopsis: A former Thug was able to achieve his dream of entering the teaching profession by becoming a high school teacher. Unfortunately, he later died because of a high school girl who could not tolerate that our protagonist did not accept her feelings . Author's Note: The protagonist has read some webtoons and manhwas because of his friend, so he has some knowledge about manhwas and webtoons, but he is not an expert. And a little bonus information, he is around the same age as the members of Generation 1 and he is the son of Tom Lee. There will be other manhwas like High School Mercenary (yes, I like the guns) and other stuff like Castle.

Chapter 0: Suho Kang from Hanlim Gym

Author's Note: In this Chapter 0, I will talk about Kang Suho since my protagonist has inherited his abilities.

Abilities and Martial Arts:

Suho Kang is an incredible martial artist since he is ranked number 1 throughout Seongbuk and Seoul. 

Having won 204 matches undefeated in PVP. He mainly fights with his fists, but can use weapons if his opponents bring them and if it is a specific fighting style.

Copy - His main special ability seems natural to him. He can copy the fighting style of his enemies during combat or from a single demonstration, and perfect it in almost a matter of seconds, but he cannot copy movements that have no ready stances like instinctive attacks.

* Martial Arts Styles - The following styles he has copied:

- Kali Arnis

- Kyokushin  

- Capoeira

- Boxing

- Taekwondo

- Muay Thai

- Judo

- Jeet Kune Do

….

* Origin: A concept ability created to defeat and/or kill an opponent using only the user's own fighting style, rather than a traditional martial art.

Origin allows the user's breathing, senses, and movements to be fully optimized and pushed to their highest possible level in order to create an independent and original martial art specially for them.

Another example is the existence of water in liquid and solid form: Water changes form into ice, which is solid. Origin, in this case, consists of modifying the user's original fighting style to fit the user's unique mold in order to obtain the best optimization. Due to this direction, it is the opposite of "Zone."

Limitations

Although it is indicated nowhere, it can be assumed that each Origin is closely tied to its specific user and thus cannot be shared or taught to others like normal martial arts.

Author's Note: It is possible later for the protagonist to learn other stuff from the "Hanlim Gym" verse like "Zone" and others, but he will obligatorily learn stuff like the Invisible Attack from Lookism.

Little Bonus Info:

The Zone: This is an ability in Hanlim Gym (the original webtoon of Suho Kang). It is an ability where the state of mind allows the user to fully immerse themselves in a single activity and display their best skills. It is the opposite form of Origin.  

The key to the Zone is concentration. A bit like concentrating on a test or a sports match. It is a phenomenon that constitutes a regular stage of concentration. By being immersed in a particular activity and manifesting all the senses; combining all prior knowledge and experiences into one. When each aspect is combined, it will manifest and enhance all possible prior movements.

Another example is the use of ordinary and boiling water. Water changes state by boiling but maintains the same liquid form. The Zone, in this case, consists of maintaining the established form of the user and pushing it to the limit. Due to this direction, it is the opposite of Origin where in that ability, the form changes completely.

Zone Control

Identical or similar to Origin's Zone, but this time it has more manual control instead of feeling it in the moment.

Limitations 

This goal will not be achieved if the user does not maintain training and discipline. Like being lazy and doing other procrastinating activities instead of pursuing training.
