Reawakened Man

“I'll be back, alive.”
Despite unwavering support from his best friend Young-ha and the unwavering support of his younger sister Ye-rin, job seeker Seok Hwan just can't seem to land a job, repeatedly failing interviews. One night, after yet another disastrous interview, he returns home only to be attacked by a group of strangers and killed. But 72 hours after his death, Seok Hwan suddenly opens his eyes as if nothing happened. He soon discovers that he possesses a special ability: no matter how many times he dies, he comes back to life. But there's little time to process his extraordinary new power before a mysterious figure known as Black, who has discovered Hwan's existence, begins hunting him down. Yet with each resurrection, Seok Hwan grows stronger, unleashing powers beyond anything he could have imagined!
