History Manhwa / PhDPhantasyDegree

%%* {{Bishonen}}: Majority of the cast qualify but special mention goes to Chun-Lang and Lance.

%%* DarkSkinnedBlonde: Stonia and Notra.

* SplitPersonality: Sang's personality switches whenever she activates her power rings, and so far we've seen 4 of them: her "default" character is a childish GenkiGirl IdiotHero who is prone to causing trouble, another personality, as already noted earlier, is an AxCrazy BloodKnight who uses explosive magic to cause as many destruction as possible, then there are the adult male and female forms who are calm and cool-headed.

* BlindingBangs: Ryushi has long hair and bangs that covers his eyes. He is also the most mysterious of the Zeus survivors, and is the only one who didn't get curb-stomped by Cho-Hyun during their battle training.

* GenderBender: The [[[RingOfPower power rings]] introduced in the series allows the characters to switch gender whenever it is worn.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Noru's hair is blue.

''[=PhD: Phantasy Degree=]'' (original title: ''Maseuteo Seukur Ollimpeuseu'', lit. ''Master School Olympus'') is a horror-themed comedy/action-adventure {{manhwa}} that focus on the adventures of Sang, a young woman who travels to Demon School Hades in hope of becoming a student there. The thing of it is that the school is meant strictly for monsters, so you can pretty much see the problem there. As the series goes on, we find out there is more to Sang and her motives than meets the eye.

* ForcefulKiss: Sang, while in "his" AxCrazy personality, saw a female Chun-Lang tame a Gigantes, immediately falls in love and kisses her. Chun-Lang did not take it well.

* ArcaneArcher: Iris normally fights using a magically conjured bow and arrow. Hexion can also use her hair to create magic arrows.

* {{Elfeminate}}: Henduh notes that, since all elves are effiminate looking, male and female is almost interchageable. This is apparently how Hexion managed to disguise herself as a guy for so long.

* SweetPollyOliver: Hexion is a female elf, who spent the majority of her appearance in a male disguise. When her cover is blown, she looks decidedly more feminine.

* MagicPants: Initially averted. When Sang first uses her RingOfPower and transformed into a larger man, her clothes got torn apart. However, when she transformed again, her clothes remained intact, and this fact did not go unnoticed by one of the author's assistants, who mentioned in her Omake that Sang's clothes is "suspicious".

* AnArmAndALeg: Cho-Hyun lost one of his arms when the Madosa Guild attacked Zeus. This doesn't stop him from being a good fighter, though, as he managed to battle his 4 students and easily curb-stomped three of them (the last one were forced to surrender at this point).

* BareFistedMonk: Gyo-Hee from Athena is classified as a "Monk" and fights without weapons. Noru, one of the survivors from Zeus, is similarly and hand-to-hand combatant -- though he is never explicitly stated to be a monk.

Licensed and released in the United States under {{Tokyopop}}. Ten volumes of the series have been published; however, the story is currently on hiatus and it is unknown whether the creator will continue it. He seems to have moved on to other manhwas, such as ''Manhwa/DorothyOfOz''.

The series provides the following tropes:
