The anime Tomb Raider King premiered on Crunchyroll with a Korean dub. The protagonist Jooheon Suh is betrayed and given a second chance, drawing comparisons to Solo Leveling. However, the writer finds the protagonist less sympathetic, starting with a vengeful attitude, and notes the series is not in the same class as Solo Leveling. The writer, who read three manhwa volumes, says vengeance remains the primary characteristic.
Jooheon Suh, a former orphan who gained power from tomb relics, is betrayed by his employer Taejoon Kwon. A mysterious force grants him a second chance, sending him back before the tombs erupted.

The writer, having read three manhwa volumes, notes vengeance remains the primary trait. Tomb Raider King streams on Crunchyroll.
