[Opening panel – A sleek, modern office building in the heart of Seoul. Inside, Jinwoo stands confidently in front of a glass-walled conference room. The morning sunlight floods the room as he faces a group of investors.]
Narration (Jinwoo):
“It’s funny how quickly people forget the small players.”
“They think they’re too big to notice the ones who start from nothing.”
“But nothing is where empires are born.”
---
[Panel – Investors sit around a polished table, skeptical. A confident-looking man, Mr. Kwon, addresses Jinwoo.]
Mr. Kwon:
> “You’ve only been in business for three months. Why should we trust your company with our money?”
“What makes you different from all the others?”
Jinwoo (smiling calmly):
> “I’ve seen the future, Mr. Kwon. I know what the next billion-dollar idea looks like.”
“And I’m already making it a reality.”

[Panel – Close-up of Jinwoo’s phone screen. It shows an app that has already begun trending on social media, with thousands of downloads in just a few days.]
Narration:
“The app. Our app. It’s viral.”
“But I can’t rely on just this.”
“I need leverage. I need more than just code.”
---
[Panel – Jinwoo walks away from the meeting room, leaving the investors whispering amongst themselves. He heads toward the elevator, his expression calm but resolute.]
Narration:
“Viral success is just the beginning.”
“Now, I need to turn these small wins into something bigger.”
---
[Scene shifts – Jinwoo in his apartment. He’s on the phone, his voice steady and authoritative.]
Jinwoo:
> “We need to secure the next round of funding. Our valuation is skyrocketing, and we need to leverage that.”
“I’ve already spoken to a few key players. Once we have the capital, we’ll control the tech market.”
---
[Panel – Jinwoo sits in front of his computer, tracking stock prices and investments. He’s already predicting the rise of certain companies and shorting others.]
Narration:
“Knowledge of the future isn’t just about trends and technology. It’s about timing.”
“I’ve watched billion-dollar companies fall because they couldn’t keep up with change.”
“But I will.”
---
[Panel – Jinwoo receives a message on his phone. It’s from Seo Mira, the tech mogul’s daughter. She invites him to a high-profile tech gala, with a cryptic message.]
Seo Mira (text message):
> “I hear you’re making waves. Let’s talk business at the gala. The future doesn’t wait for anyone.”
Jinwoo (smirking):
> “It’s time to make my move.”
---
[Scene shifts – A luxurious gala. People in formal attire mingle, drink champagne, and discuss tech. Jinwoo enters, wearing a tailored suit. His presence immediately commands attention, even in this elite crowd.]
Narration:
“This is it.”
“I’ve been waiting for this moment. The chance to step into the world where power is measured in influence and connections.”
---
[Panel – Seo Mira approaches him with a smile. Her beauty is undeniable, but it’s her intellect that commands respect. She extends her hand.]
Seo Mira:
> “Jinwoo Han. I’ve heard a lot about you.”
“I’m curious… what is it you want from me?”
Jinwoo (coolly):
> “I want what your father has.”
“But I’ll take it from you, not him.”
---
[Panel – Seo Mira narrows her eyes, intrigued by Jinwoo’s confidence.]
Seo Mira:
> “Bold. You think you can take on my father’s empire?”
“He’s built something far greater than your app.”
Jinwoo (smiling faintly):
> “The best part of an empire is that it can be broken down and rebuilt.”
“And I’m very good at that.”
---
[Panel – The crowd at the gala buzzes with excitement. In the background, an ominous figure watches them, hidden among the shadows. Its eyes gleam red.]
Narration:
“The dark presence that’s been following me… it’s closer now.”
“I can feel it. Watching. Waiting.”
“But it won’t stop me.”
---
[Final panel – Jinwoo and Seo Mira walk away from the crowd, exchanging quiet words. The future is uncertain, but Jinwoo’s resolve is unshakable.]
Narration:
“The game has only just begun.”
“And I’m not playing to survive. I’m playing to own everything.”
He died with nothing.
Betrayed by his closest friend.
Used by the woman he loved.
And forgotten by the world he tried to change.
But death wasn’t the end—it was the deal.
Now, Jinwoo Han wakes up seventeen again, in the filthy apartment he started from… but this time, he remembers everything. Every betrayal. Every mistake. Every future trend, invention, and downfall.
Armed with knowledge of the future and a genius mind sharpened by failure, Leon won’t just survive—he’ll rise. He’ll build an empire from the ground up. He’ll crush those who stepped over his corpse.
And maybe, just maybe… he’ll learn to love again.
But power comes with a price.
And a dark presence watches from the shadows, waiting to collect what it’s owed.
One life ended. Another has just begun.
This time, he’s not playing fair.
He’s playing to win.
