Reincarnation of the Fist King (Korean: 권왕환생, RR: Gwonwang Hwansaeng) is a high-impact Murim (martial arts) manhwa written by Lee Moon-hyeok and illustrated by Kim Kyu-sam. It is highly praised for its refreshing take on the "overpowered master" trope, focusing on pure physical dominance and a protagonist who doesn't use the typical "slender swordsman" aesthetic common in the genre.

The story follows Cid, the legendary "Fist King" who was the strongest martial artist in the world. After reaching the pinnacle of power and dying, he is reincarnated into the body of a young, frail noble named Leo. Despite his new body's weak appearance, Cid retains his 1,000 years of combat experience and his "Fist King" soul. He decides to forgo the complicated politics of his new life and instead uses his overwhelming physical techniques to punch his way through any obstacle, proving that even in a world of swords and magic, a single fist is all you need to rule.
