As he starts to get stronger, Jinwoo faces more and more powerful opponents and starts learning more about the dungeons and why they suddenly opened up. After the massive success of season 1 in 2024, the second season of the anime has also been well-received by the fans. A live-action drama has also been revealed to be in the works.
