In the quiet rural village of Seongcheon, South Korea, lives a boy named Joon, whose world is filled with manhwa, anime, and novels. With no clear path ahead and no real prospects, Joon often dreams of a life filled with purpose, ambition, and adventure. He longs for the kind of power his fictional heroes possess — a System that could change everything.

One evening, that wish is granted.

A glowing, floating System Window appears before him — not inside a phone or computer, but in midair, responding only to him. It offers a life-altering opportunity: the ability to choose any profession and master it from scratch. With no one else aware or involved, Joon is the only system user in the world.

He selects his first class: Trader — the art of buying and selling stocks, navigating markets, and building wealth from knowledge and strategy. Starting with ₩500,000 in capital and a beginner’s toolkit of stats like Market Insight and Negotiation, Joon takes his first step into a reality-bending journey of XP, quests, and mastery.

From studying charts late into the night to executing risky trades with trembling hands, he gains XP one task at a time, leveling up and earning precious stat points. Every action matters. Every reward is earned. And every coin spent is tracked.

But this is only the beginning. With the power to one day become anything — from a footballer to a scientist, a chef to a tycoon — Joon must use his wits, will, and wisdom to ascend, all while keeping his System a secret.

This is a tale of dreams made real — one profession, one quest, one chapter at a time.

The soft hum of the early morning filled Joon's room as he sat before his desk, eyes fixed on the glowing system window. His recent victory still warmed his spirit. Level 2—he could feel the shift, the promise of something greater ahead.


The system pulsed softly, delivering a new message.


Study recent stock market trends and identify a promising sector to invest in.


Joon smiled to himself, recalling how vital market insight had been in his first trade. This quest felt right.


He spent the day reading market reports, news articles, and expert analyses. He compared sectors—technology, energy, consumer goods—and noted patterns. Technology still held strong, but the renewable energy sector was showing impressive growth and government support.


He jotted down notes, making mental strategies for future investments. The work was intense but thrilling—he felt like a real trader.


As night fell, the system chimed again.

Joon stretched his arms, energized. The system's steady guidance was becoming a part of his daily rhythm, a lifeline in this new world of trading.


In the corner of his eye, the system window flickered once more.


Tip: Increasing your Market Insight stat will help you analyze trends more effectively.


Joon made a mental note. When he gained more stat points, Market Insight would be his priority.


With his ambitions growing and his skills sharpening, Joon felt ready to take on the market's next challenge. The path ahead was long, but he was no longer just a boy dreaming in a small village. He was a trader in the making.
