Synopsis
David Lee was supposed to be dead. Nineteen years old, terminal cancer, nothing left but hospital beds and webtoons about gang fights, brotherhood, and underdog heroes. But when he opens his eyes again, he’s not David anymore. He’s Seo Joonwoo, fifteen, awkward, quiet, and newly enrolled in the most infamous school in the city: Taeyang Technical High, where fists rule the halls and teachers look the other way. It should’ve been a nightmare. Instead… it’s everything David used to dream of. And when his first fight begins, a strange blue screen appears before his eyes: [Romanticism System Activated.] “The stronger your conviction… the stronger your punch.” Now, armed with a second chance, Joonwoo isn’t just here to survive. He’s here to live the kind of story he once only read about — a story of loyalty, friendship, fights under flickering lights… and maybe even love. This isn’t just delinquency. This is romanticism.

Chapter 1 - Prologue

Let me tell you how it all began...

 

The hallway lights flickered half-broken, like this school's soul.

 

Paint peeled off the walls. Blood stained the lockers. Somewhere in the distance, a desk crashed against a wall.

 

This wasn't a school.

This was a battleground.

 

And at the front of the group, standing like it was just another Monday, was Lee Seojun third-year, infamous gang vice leader of ROMZ

 

He looked over his shoulder, face cut, bruised… but smiling.

"We're ready."

 

Right behind him, Seo Joonwoo stepped forward.

 

His jacket the one everyone at Jungang High had come to recognize rustled as he pulled on his black gloves, fingers tightening with each breath.

 

His hair was slicked back.

His eyes were calm.

And on his chest?

 

A faint glow — invisible to everyone but him.

[Conviction: 78%.]

 

Joonwoo smirked.

"Let's go."

 

No one questioned it.

 

Let me tell you all… This guys? They weren't just a gang.

 

They weren't heroes.

 

They were just teens…

...fighting for something that still mattered. Something romantic…
