A cute romance story about a pathetic, awkward male lead and an adorable vampire girl.

I should warn again that the ML is quite pathetic (especially from today's perspective), but that kind of male lead was much more common in older romance webtoons from the 2000s to early 2010s. Compared to some others from that era, I'd say he is... alright.

Anyway, its a decent read.

One of the most iconic webtoons by Taeho Yoon, possibly one of the greatest artists in the medium, portraying the lives of ordinary people in the corporate world.

genre: drama

In a world where everyone is born with a cliche of their own, the protagonist, Seona, is stuck with a romance cliché. She absolutely hates romance and just wants to focus on her studies, but inevitably gets entangled with a regressed shonen-protagonist type and a character saddled with a villain cliche.

fun read. a lot of manga paradies too.

genre: comedy, romance (including straight, BL, GL, incest, adultry)

A romance webtoon about a girl who lies about dating her older brother (well, they are cousins but portrayed more as siblings,and students dont know they are related) in order to get the attention of a boy she fell for at first sight.

As you can probably tell from the tags, it is a romance series, but one that includes elements like BL, GL, and incest. The work itself is essentially an exploration and dissection of love across different kinds of relationships, and it brings in these various forms of love to support that theme. I must say It handles them quite well.

So i guess the best way to enjoy this series is to focus on how the relationships between the different characters are redefined and reconstructed over time.

Anyway, its a fun read

genre: romance

A school romance story centered on Shin Yi-seok, a girl from a countryside who is often misunderstood because of her delinquent-looking appearance.

It is under quite classic shoujo setup of 2 boys and 1 girl, but as the story progresses, it turns out to be surprisingly straightforward (kinda reflects her character i guess).

decent read.

genre: drama

A story about Joo Jae-yeol, a 39year old adjunct lecturer and unknown writer who lives lamenting how his life has never quite gotten on track (orbit). One day, a junior writer he deeply cared about dies, and Jae-yeol happens to come into possession of that junior’s manuscript.

The raws recently wrapped up s1 at 42 chapters, while the translation seems to have only covered the prologue so far. Even so, I was honestly surprised to see that this is being translated at all.... because this is one of the best webtoons currently running, and arguably 'the' best work right now (there are few more contenders tho).

so yeah. dont sleep on this one buds.

genre: drama, slice of life, fantasy, adventure

Haesul and Miru have been childhood friends for ten years. Haesul is known for having a terrible personality, but he is kind only to Miru. Miru, on the other hand, is gentle, kind to everyone, and almost naively good-hearted. The story begins when Miru discovers Haesul’s secret.

It’s a romance webtoon with a fairly simple setup, but a warm and comforting tone. You know, theme of kindness, friendship, wolf wanting Miru's heart and Miru winning his heart through kindness and such.

Decent read.

genre: sci-fi, post apocalypse

A massive volcanic eruption blankets the Earth in ash, plunging the world into a long winter.

its a good read.

its a short webtoon, yet very compelling and heartwarming.

genre : comedy

104 chapters in raw, ongoing

A chaotic adventure story about a slightly unhinged hero party, packed with plenty of lewd jokes.

genre: apocalypse, horror, drama, mystery

A story about a young child living in a circus.

At first glance, everything seems bright and cheerful, but the world outside feels drastically different from the one we know. What happened to this world, and what exactly is going on with the circus troupe?

I usually avoid posting about works that haven’t been translated, but I still wanted to bring this one up. It’s only 22 chapters long, and despite having wrapped up just recently, it’s far too good to ignore just because there’s no translation yet.

Also, in cases like this, once the series becomes paid content, there’s a real chance that a translation may never appear at all. So if there’s anyone here who can read the original, I strongly recommend checking it out while you can.

Again, I mean this without exaggeration. This was easily one of the best webtoons I’ve read in the past few months.

genre: comedy, reincarnation

Hui-won is an ordinary high school student in Korea. But his normal life is turned upside down when So-hee, a beautiful transfer student, reveals that he was once Union, a hero from another world. And soon, Hui-won also learns the truth about So-hee’s own identity — a truth he never wanted to know.

With both the hero’s party and the Demon King’s forces now gathered in Korea, can they survive the chaos that follows?

This is a new work from the author or 'teenage dragon', and the official translation just came up few days ago. Pretty fun read.
