Teenage Mercenary (Webtoon)

As I mentioned in my previous post in this community, I've been reading a lot of Webtoons lately, so I'd like to share another story that really caught my attention. It's called TEENAGE MERCENARY.

The story is about a teenager named Ijin. When he was eight years old, the plane he and his parents were on crashed. He was the sole survivor in an unknown land, where he ultimately became a mercenary.

Actually, before becoming a mercenary, he was part of a group called "Numbers". They're trained in an environment where you have to do everything to survive. At that time, he lost his memories following the plane crash.

However, when he slowly regained his memories and humanity, he decided to escape the organization, which led to his life as Mercenary Jin.

Fast forward ten years after the plane crash, with the help of some soldiers deployed from South Korea, he reunited with his family, his grandpa and younger sister named Dayun.

Returning to his family, Ijin was determined to live a normal life as a high school student. He's finally able to experience what a family and a regular life are like.

However, trouble doesn't seem to leave him alone. His sister was bullied at school, and other issues arose, prompting him to show his skills to protect his loved ones. His past was beginning to catch up to him.

Will he be able to live a normal life with the people he holds dear?

The story is available to read on Webtoon. It's ongoing, with 225 episodes, all of which are free to read. The latest episode on the app is 241, which you can unlock using coins, but will eventually be available for free.

I really like the story. It's action-packed, but it's also really touching. It emphasizes the value of family and friendship. There are many amusing characters.

Among them, one of my favorites is 004, who is a member of The Numbers. He's so crazy that I always find myself laughing every time I see him. I love eccentric characters like him. He's also a massive tsundere, which made it a huge plus for me. Despite his looks, he's such an adorable character!

I look forward to reading the rest of the story. I'm curious because the latest chapters were so exciting! Questions about his past have been gradually answered.

One thing, though, I want the people from his past and his current friends to meet and perhaps play some games together. It would be heartwarming to watch. Ijin is such a beautiful soul, and he deserves the world.

He may be tough and scary at times, but in the end, he's just a naive child. I hope he'll get more chances to catch up with the childhood he'd missed, together with the people precious to him.

If you're looking for something exciting yet heartwarming, I highly recommend this Webtoon.

One more thing before I end this post, it's going to have an anime adaptation! The release date hasn't been set yet, but it will be called Nyuugaku Youhei. I really hope the anime version will do justice to the Webtoon. I can't wait to see 004's anime version, but I bet I'd have to wait longer to do that. XD

That's it for this post. :) Thanks for reading and see you around! (^^,)/
