Jung Hyunwoo used to live for the octagon.

Before the injury, before the drinking, before his career ended in a hospital bed, he was a striking prodigy chasing the UFC dream. So when he stumbled across a web novel that treated striking like a joke and worshipped grapplers like gods, he did what any bitter ex-fighter would do:

He left the longest hate comment of his life.

Then he woke up inside the novel.

Not as the protagonist. Not even as a rival.

Just some extra nobody.

Fortunately for Hyunwoo, the author made one critical mistake.

They dropped a real striker into a world that has no idea what elite hands look like.
