Reach the top, and everything will be yours. At the top of the
tower exists everything in this world, and all of it can be yours. You can
become a god. This is the story of the beginning and the end of Rachel, the
girl who climbed the tower so she could see the stars, and Bam, the boy
who needed nothing but her.
SIU launched the manhwa on NAVER WEBTOON in 2010, then launched the digital comic on WEBTOON in English in July 2014.
