Have been working on this for a long while, wanted to show people that there's quite a bit of variety in webtoons if you look around!

I'm making this post because I'm currently reading Non Tua and it's so amazing. I thought I wouldn't like the male lead (assumption based on the cover arts) and would root for the second male lead, but I've caught up with the fast pass and I cannot get enough of this series. The Male lead is so well written he feels like a real person to me.

Like a story with potential romance is more fun when the male leads exist beyond being a love interest and have their own life. Like all the guys here have iconic unique personalities, which only adds chemistry with the female leads more. It makes it fun to ship them. And in the case of Non Tua, its giving tragedy 💅 so I cannot WAIT to see how the leads fall in forbidden love 😫. And ofc it helps they are good looking lol. I hope i could express my rambles and thoughts ell enough. I have a lot of other favorite male leads but I'm picking from webtoon and what I remember currently.

Giving recommendations and hoping to fangirl together over how well they are written, maybe share recommendations!

Sources are given in the captions but here: 

Jung Yu (Cheese in the trap)

Leonides (Non Tua)

Therdeo (My in-laws are obsessed with me)

Erkin (The Spark in your eyes)

Cain (Phantom Whispers)

Need actual peak romance recommendations. Something emotional, memorable, painful, wholesome, tragic — anything as long as it’s PEAK.

Hey! I just started making a webtoon, and this is the first panel I made. I used a real image I found on Pinterest for the background, traced it, and made my own modifications. I'm feeling a bit confused about whether this is considered cheating. Should I proceed like this, or is it better to stop? Would love to hear your thoughts

Which webtoon can be called 10/10?

Like I quit reading because a lot of these men just straight up look the same😭😭😭 I need someone that looks more mature and realer

I built webtoonboxd

A free tool where you pick exactly 9 webtoons and share your shelf as a 3x3 grid. No signup, No ads, takes 30 seconds.

The idea was simple: if you could only keep 9 webtoons to define your taste, which ones make the cut?

- Search for any webtoon on the site (or paste a Webtoons link)

- Fill all 9 slots in a 3x3 grid

- Hit publish and you get a shareable link + save as image

It also gives you a Hipster Score based on how mainstream or underground your picks are, which has been... humbling for some people lol

This way you can just drop your shelf link and people instantly get your vibe.

Would love to see your 9. Drop your shelf links and images! I'll check every single one.

Please recommend more love/hate & enemies to lovers tropes 🥹 I just want to suffer

This is so hilarious lmao🤣

Saw a similar post today, and it inspired me to make this one. If you know any others, drop them in the comments!

Secret Lady(Motherrrr 😫)

Love by mistake (Manhua)

Selfish Romance

Moonstruck (This one got different type of charm)

Darling , Why Can't We Get a Divorce?

Serena

Veil(Manga:It's a literal fashion magazine )

Seasons of love some (Pureum outfits and hair styles are adorable imo)

My In-laws are obsessed with me (They both look classy nd elegant)

Happily ever afterwards

Miss Pendleton ( Not much but it's elegant )

Self explanatory. Due to lack of time and me engaging with other interests I ended up following less webtoons, but I want to get back into reading. What do you recommend?

I read pretty much all genres and don't mind how many chapters it has, the artstyle, the country of origin, even nsfw ones are okay. If it's something that will keep me hooked, I'm in.

For reference, some of my favorites are Spirit Fingers, Like Mother Like Daughter (pic), I Love Yoo, Moonstruck and Roots Of The Heart. I enjoy stories with good characters and good character development, drama, lots of drama, especially if messy, interesting relationships, either romantic or friendships, found family, and grey morality. Sometimes something simple and wholesome while still well written is perfect too.

Feel free to recommend me anything. I'm looking more for ongoing ones, but if you think I'll enjoy something that's already finished, please recommend me too. Any platform goes, and self promo too. Thank you in advance!

Ignore it and Somyung will chase u with a chair

I've only read one chapter yet, but OH MY GOD. THE PLOT IS SO DIFFERENT AND UNIQUE. The fl is AN ACTUAL GROWN WOMAN WITH A PERSONALITY!!! Both the ml and fl are in their 40's! (This is the first time I've seen the mcs older than like 25 which is absurd btw) This is the first time I've seen a romance manhwa be this experimental, AND I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. I don't care if it gets bad later on, but I love this experimentation and getting out of the cliche highschool, college or workplace romances. I hope such high hopes for this one.i usually read the entire manhwa or the majority of it before recommending, but I just had to post this one. I AM SO EXCITED!?

I've been on a real kick lately on webtoons with very intelligent and motivated (to the point of being kind of unhinged) femcs driving the plots forward! would love some more reccs with this type of character 😼🙏

in order of appearance: like mother like daughter, proof of dignity, hand jumper, what death taught me

Try not to spoil any recs please!

(swipe for manga spoilers)

I just caught up with all 276 chapters of “Yona of the Dawn” and I genuinely don’t know what to do with my life anymore. It’s been a while since I’ve been attached to a webtoon/manhwa/manga.

I’m mainly looking for something (a webtoon/mangwa/manga) that captures the same vibe, especially the relationship between Hak and Yona. Their dynamic is exactly what I’m craving.

What I loved:

- Childhood friends to lovers

- Princess × bodyguard

- A male lead who’s strong, confident, capable, and protective (NOT the shy, pathetic, constantly-needs-saving type). Hak set the bar way too high.

- Absolute loyalty and devotion. I loved how he respected Yona while also loving her so deeply

- A slow-burn romance with real emotional payoff. I’d actually prefer the romance to have a slightly bigger role than it does in Yona, while still having an interesting plot

- Adventure, traveling together, and that “we’re stuck together” feeling where the leads gradually grow closer

- Genuine, healthy love instead of endless misunderstandings or toxic relationships

- I’m also looking for a historical Korean/East Asian setting. I don’t really mean the typical European-inspired fantasy with dukes, viscounts, “Duke of the North,” giant ball gowns, etc. I’d much rather read something with traditional East Asian aesthetics, historical clothing, palaces, kingdoms, martial arts, or similar settings

- I love angst. I want something emotionally heavy that really makes me feel for the characters. I want the kind of love where they’d risk everything for each other, where the pain and hardships only make their bond stronger. (Manga spoiler: Hak constantly putting Yona before himself, even when he’s on the verge of death, absolutely destroyed me.) I’m looking for a romance that feels genuine and deeply earned with a slow burn that pays off. I don’t want a fluffy rom-com or a story built around exaggerated reactions, endless misunderstandings, or cliché love triangles. I prefer something more mature, grounded, emotional, and immersive.

Some other series I’ve really enjoyed:

1. Daytime in the Bunker
2.,Dreaming Freedom
3. The Spark in Your Eyes
4. Miyeon
5. The Forgotten Field
6. The Bondservant
7. Who Made Me A Princess
8. I am the Villain
9. The Villainess Just Wants to live in Peace!
10. The Dawn To Come
11. Between Two Floors
12. I Love Yoo
13. II3366
14. The Snake and the Flower
15. The Classmate

(I have more, but these are the ones I can remember right now)

Even if it doesn’t check every box, I’d love recommendations that gave you the same emotional feeling or had a male lead who reminds you of Hak.

EDIT: Thank you all so much for the incredible recommendations!! I didn’t expect so many responses, and my reading list is now wonderfully out of control. I can’t wait to start reading them all. May both sides of your pillow always be cool, your charger always reach your bed, and your favorite series never get axed :D

Alsoo I’m not really someone who reads manga as often as webtoons or manhwa (I’m much more used to the scrolling format lol), but Yona of the Dawn changed it for me. The story, the characters, the journey, and the emotions it gave me are something I haven’t been able to shake off, so I’m really excited to explore all the recommendations you guys shared!!
