Crunchyroll describes the story:
Reach the top and everything will be yours. At the top of the tower exists everything in this world and it can all be yours. You can become a god. This is the story of the beginning and end of Rachel, the girl who climbed the tower so she could see the stars, and Bam, the boy who needed nothing but her.
SIU launched the manhwa on NAVER WEBTOON in 2010, then launched the digital comic on WEBTOON in English in July 2014.
