Compared to manga, originating in Japan, manhwa enjoy much less popularity. Comics originating in South Korea are often mistreated, but nevertheless some of them emerge particularly and conquer a large portion of the public. Among them is Tower of God, one of the most famous manhwa along with The Breaker.
Tower of God saw an announcement a few months ago regarding the production of an animated series. It is almost unique in the panorama of Korean comics and the news stirred fans who were so excited to see Bam and Rachel animated, but who did not know what to expect from this production.
