A complete Korean-localized Initial D style manga project created by me.
One day, Park Take asks Choi Hyundai if he wants to join Project HD, an expedition team for racing outside the local prefecture. As Choi Hyundai approaches high school graduation, he grows as a driver while contemplating his career path and life.

Songni). How will the future unfold...

After eventually defeating Namgoong Seop, another challenger appeared who desperately wanted to battle Hyundai: Gong Seung-hyuk.
