The anime, adapted from the best-selling Korean web novel by Chugong, has gained immense popularity worldwide. The first season, which debuted in January 2024, follows the story of Sung Jinwoo, a low-ranking “hunter” in a world where people battle dangerous creatures inside mysterious dungeons. As Jinwoo survives a life-threatening encounter, he unlocks a unique ability that allows him to level up his strength, unlike any other hunter.
