Recap of the previous episode

In the fifth episode, there was a strong emphasis on Hobin’s growth as a fighter and his comprehension of the qualities that make a fighter great, a concept that has been gradually unfolding throughout the series. Additionally, the brewing tension between Hobin and Pakgo was a central focus of the episode.

Despite Pakgo’s annoyance towards Hobin and his sudden success as a NewTuber, it all began with Hobin filming his victory over Pakgo in the first episode. This episode can be viewed as the climax of their ongoing conflict, as the two characters finally face each other in a final showdown, with Hobin’s character showing significant growth as a result.

One of the most memorable moments of the episode was when Hobin successfully executed the low kick he had been practicing during training, ultimately leading to his victory over Pakgo. This demonstrates his progress as a fighter, although he still has plenty of room for growth.
