The Park Tae-joon Universe is a world where various webtoons from the company founded by cartoonist Park Tae-joon share one large story. Works like "Study Group," "Viral Hit," and "Manager Kim," centered around the representative work "Lookism," are interconnected.
This world is based on the Seoul and Gyeonggi regions of South Korea in reality, but characters much stronger than ordinary people appear.
The biggest characteristic of this worldview is that it is a school action genre dealing with fights in schools and on the streets. The protagonists are initially weak but become stronger through various crises. Protagonists or supporting characters from each work make surprise appearances in other works. These encounters provide great fun to the readers. Although each work deals with slightly different themes, they ultimately show a grand society intertwined with power and loyalty.
As the story progresses, it goes beyond simple school fights to reveal large organizations and the dark side of society. The characters use real martial arts such as boxing, jiu-jitsu, and taekwondo. In addition, comic book settings such as superhuman abilities or special physical 'states' are added. Because of this, the scale of the fights gradually increases and is filled with tension.
Ultimately, the Park Tae-joon Universe moves like one grand heroic legend, with individual stories coming together. It provides catharsis as the weak become strong and evil forces are overthrown. Readers feel the fun of finding relationships between new and existing characters within the expanded worldview. This world continues to grow with new works and settings being added even now.
