I’m Not a Regressor (Korean: 회귀자 아님) is a high-octane, dark fantasy manhwa and web novel that brilliantly subverts the "Regression" trope that has dominated the genre. Written by Sancha and illustrated by JB (of Studio River), it is praised for its psychological depth, brutal action, and a protagonist who has to "fake it until he makes it" against literal gods.

The story follows Oh Han-seol, a man who is summoned to a tutorial tower alongside a group of "Regressors"—people who have lived through the apocalypse before and traveled back in time with their memories and powers intact. Han-seol is the only "Normal" person in the group. However, due to a massive misunderstanding and his own survival instincts, the Regressors mistake him for a legendary, hidden Regressor of immense power. To survive their suspicion and the tower’s monsters, Han-seol must use his wits, acting skills, and a "System" that rewards his deception.
