Starting to read this having binge-watched the first two seasons of the anime. First off, this is my first time reading manhwa as opposed to manga, so I can't believe it's in full colour. What an absolute treat for the eyes! The art is crazy good.
This volume is the origin story, where it all began for Sung Jinwoo. It's also by definition the weakest we'll ever see him, and I must say I like how you can see his instincts and intelligence helping him to keep himself and even other hunters alive for longer in the double dungeon. He may not be strong, but there's a reason he's somehow managed to survive this long, and it's paid off in terms of experience. I feel like that becomes irrelevant in the face of his power later on, so it's nice to see here.
Gosh, he was such a cute little bean at first. I kind of miss this face.
