The Viral Hit manhwa is written by Taejin Park (also known for Lookism) and illustrated by Kim Junghyun. The serialisation of the series had begun in November 2019, with the comic platform Webtoon responsible for its English serialization in October, 2020.
Viral Hit is an action manhwa series that narrates the experiences of a high school student named Yoo Hobin. He is intensely bullied by his classmates and Pakgo who is a streamer on NewTube, a popular streaming platform. His domestic life is full of troubles too, with his mother in the hospital and his part-time jobs to make ends meet.
One day, while Pakgo is streaming, Hobin accidentally spills water over his cameraman, Jiksae. This causes him to get disconnected and of course, Hobin faces his rage. However, they later find out that the camera was still recording, meaning the boys were caught fighting.
The fight gets uploaded on the internet which garners a revenue of a whopping ten million won. This leads Hobin and Jiksae to partner up and make as much money as possible through NewTube.
