The God of High School[b] is a South Korean manhwa released as a webtoon written and illustrated by Yongje Park.

In GOH, the action takes place and involves the inhabitants of three different realms: At the dawn of time, humans, demons and gods lived together on Earth.

[4] At the beginning of the story, he is invited to join a Martial Arts tournament called "The God of High School" (or GOH).

The event, sponsored by a shady corporation, brings together people from high schools all over South Korea on a regional and then, national level in order to select three representatives for the World Tournament.

During the opening rounds, he comes across two other martial arts prodigies: Full-Contact Karate expert Daewi Han and epeeist master Mira Yoo.

As the tournaments preliminary rounds finish, and teams assemble, plans for many different people within the organization, and those pitted against them begin to make their moves to achieve their goals.

Inspired by action genre and Dragon Ball,[16][17] Park made his debut with "Tough Guy" (쎈놈), published on Naver Webtoon from 2008 to 2009.

[25] On August 14, 2014, YD Online announced that they had acquired IP rights for The God of High School to develop a game based on the webtoon.

[31] The anime is directed by Sunghoo Park, with scripts by Kiyoko Yoshimura, Manabu Akita designing the characters, and Alisa Okehazama composing the music.

[36][37] The anime also has an easter egg in it, where the fighting ring has the Crunchyroll and the Naver Webtoon logos on it, implying that the competition is sponsored by them.
