Jin Jeongeun, the number one hunter in the country, who has been living in hiding, pretending to be dead.... more>>

He receives a request from Heero, the current number one hunter he has secretly admired for a long time.

The request is to protect Dasol, the man Heero has a crush on.

Though his body is damaged from injuries and status effects sustained a year ago, Jeongeun accepts the request out of a desire to be with him.

“I will… help the guild leader with his unrequited love.”

After all, he has dedicated his life to the guild, only to end up as a discarded tool. If it’s for his long-time favorite, the great angel who descended to Earth in human form, the pinnacle of god’s creation, the water fairy Heero who captures both innocence and allure…

Discarded tool? What’s one more time, anyway? <<less

A man who, since childhood, had been handed business cards with the question of whether he ever thought of becoming an actor. ... more>>

Moon Chaehyuk.

Two years ago, in the rain, a man named Seungho, drenched and desperate, leapt into his arms, and in an unplanned twist of fate, they spent the night together.

When Chaehyuk woke up the next morning, the person who had been lying next to him was nowhere to be found.

All that remained was 30,000 won and... “this”?!

What on earth made him leave this behind?

Chaehyuk couldn't help but wonder, puzzled, frustrated, and intrigued. Soon, it was embedded in his memory.

Now, this mischievous man who came back looking for him, Chaehyuk finds himself unable to stop wondering what's going on inside his mind.

But this cheeky little puppy, who’s completely forgotten about him, feels uncomfortable and scared by the presence of the large, intimidating superior.

Two years ago?

What in the world happened back then?

“Seungho, do you... not like me?”

“Pardon?”

Moon Chaehyuk slowly turned the pages of the book he was holding and placed it on top of the pile of books Seungho had stacked.

As his sharp features tilted slightly, the defined line of his jaw became apparent.

The slight smile on his face didn’t seem angry, but there was something about him that made people feel strangely intimidated, like a thug coming to collect on a loan.

His height and build only added to the pressure.

Seungho found himself trailing off involuntarily.

“Sir, what do you mean by that...?”

“I was wondering if you threw that book because you didn't like me.”

“No, no, that's not it! Why would I... misunderstandings, that's all!”

Seungho hurriedly explained, not understanding why such an assumption was made.

Moon Chaehyuk lightly lifted the neatly stacked books and stood up.

Seungho quickly rose to help, but Chaehyuk casually dropped the pile of books onto the desk.

“If it wasn’t because you disliked me... then is it because you like me?” <<less

It had been roughly ten years since Sihyun found himself trapped in a martial arts game. He knew that once he completed the final quest, he would finally return to reality. Yet, the thought of that reward no longer brought him joy. However, the system, in its cruel way, gave him no time to say a proper goodbye to the precious child he had grown to cherish. Without mercy, it forcibly sent Sihyun back to reality.... more>>

Sihyun reassured himself that the child would be fine without him, and so he returned to the real world. But something felt off—everything had strangely changed during his absence. Sihyun found himself in utter confusion.

"No way... Has it been three years? And what is this? A gate?"

After enduring the hardships in the game world for ten years and leaving Taewoon behind, how could the world have ended up like this? But that wasn’t the worst of it.

"Master, I’ve missed you."

His disciple, a character who should have existed only in the game, stood before him, as real as ever. And not just a little different, but vastly changed.

***

Without hesitation, Sihyun ran toward Taewoon, pulling him into a tight embrace. His lips trembled as he bit down hard to keep himself steady. Taewoon, in turn, lifted the hands that had been hanging loosely at his sides, wrapped his strong arms around Sihyun, and buried his face in his master's neck.

Finally, he had him back.

"Taewoon! Is it really you? How is this even possible?!"

"Master, I don't know either. When I came to my senses, I was all alone...."

Sihyun’s eyes, now red and puffy, filled with shadowed sorrow as he gently wiped his tear-streaked face. How long had Taewoon been by himself?

"Master... I missed you so much.... Why did you leave me? If I did something wrong, please forgive me. Please… don’t abandon me."

The soft, hoarse voice struck Sihyun’s heart with an unbearable clarity, cutting into him like a sharp blade. His heart ached, a deep, searing pain that he could hardly bear. He couldn't bring himself to meet Taewoon’s gaze and hung his head low.

Taewoon’s expression barely changed, but his eyes brimmed with dark, unidentifiable emotions and agony. Slowly, tears began to roll down his cheeks, one after the other.

“No, don’t cry, Taewoon. I— I didn’t leave you because I wanted to! Haa… I’m so sorry. I truly am.”

“…Then, you won’t leave me again, will you?”

“Of course not!”

Guilt surged through Sihyun like a tidal wave, each wave piling on top of the last. He vowed then and there, tightening his fist, that he would protect Taewoon to the very end. <<less

At the age of 30, S-class guide Park Hyunsoo, who belonged to Team D, closed his eyes for the last time. ... more>>

After escaping the exhaustion of his former life, he thought he could finally rest comfortably, only to find himself suddenly possessed by the body of the rookie guide Lee Jaehee.

‘No matter how I think about it, this is just like something out of a novel or webtoon, isn’t it?’

However, unlike the protagonists in those creative works who easily accept possession and shamelessly mimic others, he has no intention of living like that. The only thing left to do now is:

“...Actually, I’m not Lee Jaehee but the ghost of Park Hyunsoo who recently died.”

All he has to do is exorcise himself!

“The reason I gathered you all here so suddenly is not because of...”

As the man hesitated, Minchan’s brow furrowed deeply.

“What do you mean, ‘not because of’? Why are you stammering?”

Minchan snapped, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere in the meeting room. The delicate-looking man, who had been silently observing the situation, let out a deep sigh and mumbled in a low voice.

“Chan-ah.”

The unexpected use of his nickname made Jung Minchan frown. The only person who could address him so familiarly had recently passed away.

“What the hell?”

“What kind of language is that in front of adults?”

“…What did you say?”

“I told you to be polite to adults. Did you really act like this when I wasn’t around?”

“You... what the hell are you doing?”

In response to that question, the young man—no, Park Hyunsoo—grimaced.

“Your Hyung. You little shit.” <<less

I possessed a sub-male character in an Internet novel I only read eight pages of.... more>>

He was also the main female character’s childhood friend, the sub-main character.

I didn’t think it would matter anyway. I was going to live quietly without being involved with the main characters until I could return to the original world…

“Welcome to Mirgun Training School, the best school!”

The more you try to avoid, the more you get involved with the Four Great Heavenly Kings.

On top of that, this was a world of a novel where supernatural powers exist.

…Somehow, it seems the genre of this Internet novel I knew has changed. <<less

In the grand duchy, the young noble Hailen uncovers a shocking truth at the age of ten: he was switched at birth with the maid's child. This revelation fuels his hatred for Gairlont, a prodigy who seems to embody the true heir. Desperate to protect the secret and eliminate Gailront, Hailen's plans backfire, leading to his own downfall. ... more>>

Facing death, he acknowledges his deep-seated inferiority complex, only to awaken back when he was ten. Resolved to not obsess over Gailront or the heir's title, Hailen decides to start anew.

However, Gailront's unexpected declaration changes everything. 'I don't covet that position. What I want... is you,' he says, offering Hailen his rightful place in exchange for staying by his side. <<less

For some reason, twenty-year-old Hahyun, who has given up on dancing, is asked by his uncle, a broadcast station PD, to participate as a substitute in the idol debut program ‘SurvivalID’. He thought he would be easily eliminated due to the condition of participating in the full-edited program, but the reaction is surprisingly intense. With a single profile picture that turned the internet upside down, Hahyun, who raised his name in the debut rights rankings, gets closer to debuting against his will.... more>>

After much consideration, Hahyun, who decided to take the program seriously and gave up on dropping out, eventually makes his debut. He expected it wouldn’t be smooth sailing, but…

“Can’t I do what I love, though?”

Right after his debut, he is confessed to by a member who became part of the same group. <<less

Day by day, a person who used to be mine is stuck in my mind.
I needed him to forget about ‘that person’.
Kang Sehyeon, that madman.... more>>

Kang Sehyeon. Same age as me. Cold and silent. Close to only a few. Doesn’t make new friends. I heard he was fussy, but he seems to treat me differently.

"Give me your number. I’ll call you."

Kang Sehyeon handed his phone to me, whom he had just met. Let alone being friends, we’re not even acquainted.

I thought he said that out of courtesy. I didn’t think he would call me the very next day. I also didn’t expect that he would keep going.

On top of that, he would suddenly come to find me wherever I was.

“Until when will you be here?”
“I don’t know. I still have to work two or three more hours.”
“Move somewhere else, then.”
“To where?”
“My house.”

His unpredictable words and behavior.

What on earth is he thinking?

Why is he, who’s edgy towards others, being good to me?

“Is this a dream…?”

The moment he came to his senses, it seemed he had somehow entered the fantasy novel he was reading just moments ago. What’s more, he possessed the body of an extra who wasn’t even mentioned by name in the original work!

‘Does this make any sense?!’

Before the man could properly gather his wits, the original story had already begun. The man, now “Nathan Nover,” strives to survive the original story’s events that will unfold in 3 years and tries to establish a connection with the original protagonist…

***

“What are you doing there?”

Fortunately, it wasn’t backlit. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have quickly noticed who the boy standing in front of him was.

Golden hair that seemed to have been melted from pure gold sparkled even in the dreary weather. The refreshing eyes were slightly furrowed in puzzlement, and the blue eyes resembling the summer sky stared directly at Nathan.

At that moment, a tremendous shock struck his mind. Nathan unwittingly exclaimed. Ah, his instincts whispered.

This person was Azar. Azar Erasmus.

The boy before his eyes truly looked exactly as Nathan had imagined while reading. That’s why he recognized him at a glance. He couldn’t even dare to imagine the protagonist looking any other way. <<less

Shin Woo Seo has been in unrequited love for his friend Kang Ji Seok for 5 years. As soon as he learns that he has a ring connected to Kang Ji Seok’s older brother, Kang Ji Geon, he desperately tries to hide it in fear that Kang Ji Seok will keep away from him for this reason.

“Choi Sunwoo. Are you good at kissing?”... more>>

Choi Sun-woo quietly looks at him in response to his gentle question. He looked to see if he was drunk, but there was no sign of drunkenness at all, so he looked suspicious.

“Are you curious?”

“Yes.”

“Why are you curious about that?”

Choi Sun-woo answered his question very calmly. The body, disconnected from its brain, folded its eyes finely and smiled at Choi Sun-woo.

“I was thinking about kissing you.”

Honestly, I thought about it. Whenever I saw Yoo Ha-jin floundering after falling in love with Choi Sun-woo in the webtoon, I wondered how good Choi Sun-woo was. I wondered if Yoo Ha-jin, who had been very temperamental throughout the kiss, was real or not.

But that didn’t mean I had to ask the parties myself to confirm.

“Why are you thinking about that?”

“It’s my taste. It’s you.”

No, no, no. It’s not my taste, but Yoo Ha-jin’s taste.

If Yoo Ha-jin’s evil spirit is possessed by me right now, I hope he will leave only the best part of his brain behind. However, when you see him smiling, there’s no way he’s Yoo Ha-jin. That b*stard had an illness that he couldn’t smile. So now, this was my subconscious murmur.

“Really? You have a unique taste.”

“I want to kiss you.”

“Now?”

“Yeah. I want to try it. Can’t I?" <<less
