Synopsis
Mysterious tombs appeared all over the world one day, each containing a relic which grants its owner supernatural abilities. Jooheon Suh is a tomb explorer, excavator, and raider. Betrayed by his employer, he’s about to die at the hands of a powerful new relic when he suddenly finds himself 15 years in the past, before any relics or tombs made their debut. Driven by feelings of revenge, how will Jooheon use his knowledge of the future to become the Tomb Raider King?
What Tomb Raider King Is About
One day, mysterious tombs appeared all over the world, each holding a relic that grants its owner supernatural abilities. Jooheon Suh makes his living exploring, excavating and raiding these tombs, until his employer betrays him and he is about to be killed by a powerful new relic.
Instead of dying, he finds himself fifteen years in the past, before any tomb or relic had appeared. Driven by revenge and armed with knowledge of what is coming, Jooheon sets out to claim the relics first and become the Tomb Raider King.
Tone and Themes
