After his master (Goomonryong) destroys his Ki-Center, Shi-Woon leaves the world of the Murim for a normal life believing that this is what his master wished for him.
However, for the disciple of a most hated and feared villain in the Murim, holder of the Phoenix Medallion of the Sun-Woo Clan and successor of the Black Heaven and Earth Technique, the world of the Murim will come to him.
New allies and enemies await Shi-Woon, who once again rises in the dangerous and merciless world of Murim where everything is permitted.
My second re-read in the second installation of The Breaker. New Waves basically picks up a few months after the conclusion of Breaker. Shioon tries to deal with his destroyed center of ki, as well as the disappearance/ abandonment of his teacher. Told to forget about the Murim world, Shioon tries to adjust to a normal life once more but unfortunately, the forces beyond his control have other plans for him.
The storyline in fantastic, and the character evolution is on point. I have nothing to complain bout except that now, I have been waiting a year for the final season. Rumors has it that the author will resume near the end of the year after completing another series, so YEAH!!!!!!! I am very impatient especially how everything ended and the epilogue chapter left me gasping with more even though it was a foreseeable scenario. The fight scenes will not disappoint and the blood, carnage and death count is pretty high.
