SEOUL, August 19 (Yonhap) -- Webtoon “7FATES: CHAKHO” motivated by boy group BTS is picking up where the earlier story left off after four months of hiatus.

Webtoon “CHAKHO” will be published every Saturday starting this Saturday, according to Naver Webtoon on Friday.

HYBE also posted about “CHAKHO”’s characters, storyline, and relationship that will appear on the new episode through recent official social account of “CHAKHO.”

“CHAKHO,” reinterpreting a tiger hunting team “Chakhogapsa” during Joseon era, is about forming of a tiger hunter team in a fictional world where humans and tigers fight each other.

The webtoon, which started the series on Jan. 15, published until April 1, episode 12. It is back after four months of hiatus, which was originally scheduled for two months.

The webtoon drew attention in that HYBE made an original story motived by BTS members. But with the concerns over the commercial consumption of the BTS image and the long pause at the beginning, star rating by the viewers is only 8.1 (out of 10).

HYBE said, "'CHAKHO’ will show dynamic story of 7 tiger hunters overcoming difficulties, and eventually figuring out whe they have to be 7 people and what their destiny is.“
