Time travel is a fascinating concept that has been a recurring theme in manhwa’s lately. The profound theme of the protagonist’s venture to the past to seek redemption or right the wrongs of history continues to be a compelling and enduring narrative in the rich landscape of manhwa.
What’s more, the incorporation of supernatural, action, and horror-drama elements in such types of stories adds extra layers of thrill to the series, driving readers to the edge of their seats. In this article, we’ll take a look at some of the best manhwa where MC goes back in time. So, without further ado, let’s get started.
10. Swordmaster’s Youngest Son
A new addition to the regression stories, Swordmaster’s Youngest Son isn’t an ideal manhwa for newcomers, regardless it has its own good elements. The story follows Jin Runcandel, the youngest of the Runcandel family, who’s destined to become the head of his prestigious swordmaster clan.
But despite his best efforts, he’s banished for his shoddy swordsmanship and eventually meets a rather unfortunate end.

With his newfound powers and knowledge, Jin swears to fulfill his destiny and become the ultimate swordmaster.
9. Kill The Hero
Kill The Hero takes place in a game-like world where dungeons, monsters, and players appear. The series tells the story of Kim Woo-Jin who is betrayed by his most trusted friend and gets killed in succession. However, he returns to the past and gets a chance to start over.
With his sights set on revenge, Woo-Jin quickly garners notoriety among the game plebs while boosting his stats, as he masterminds his way closer to the top. Now that he knows how to play to win, Woo-Jin will stop at nothing to destroy the hero! Kill The Hero is a must-read dungeon system manhwa like Solo Leveling.
8. Return Survival
Return Survival is a fast-paced zombie apocalypse manhwa with a strong emphasis on action and survival. Known for its violent and gore plotline, the series takes place in a post-apocalyptic world outrun by the undead and mutants.

7. Doom Breaker

When he’s killed in battle by Tartarus, the god of destruction, all hope for humanity seems lost. But Zephyr’s fate brings him back to ten years in the past when everything was normal. Zephyr is determined to use his second chance at life to avenge humanity and defeat Tartarus once and for all.
6. Tomb Raider King
Tomb Raider King offers a descriptive manhwa with op MC and leveling system that explores the historical and supernatural elements.

However, betrayed by his employer, Jooheon is about to die at the hands of a powerful new relic when he suddenly finds himself 15 years in the past, before any relics or tombs make their debut. Driven by feelings of revenge, Jooheon uses his knowledge of the future to become the Tomb Raider King!
5. Return Of The 8th Class Mage
As the title suggests, The Return of the 8th Class Mage revolves around a powerful magician named Ian Paige who devoted his days to serving his friend and lord Ragnar. Yet despite their closeness, Ragnar views Ian as a threat and subsequently poisons him.
In his last moments, Ian somehow saves himself using time magic and returns 30 years to the past when he was a novice. Now as a young boy, Ian joins an elite order of mages to hone his abilities once again so that he can change his future and reclaim glory as an 8th class mage.
4. A Returner’s Magic Should Be Special
A Returner’s Magic Should Be Special may not entirely fall in the manhwa with op MC category but it sure does have fantasy elements that make it an entertaining manhwa to read. The series takes place in a world ravaged by the Shadow Realms, which have rendered most of the land uninhabitable.
During this time of immense darkness, six mages band together to rescue the world from falling into certain doom. However, the group is unsuccessful and the survival of humanity hinges upon magician Desir Arman who’s transported back in time where he has the chance to prevent human civilization’s fall.
3. Leveling Up With Gods
