This story is also known as《The Beloved Actress and Her Dangerous yet Charming Doctor Gu》... more>>

In her youth, Yan Zhen enjoyed teasing Gu Qinghe, a flower on a high peak, seeking opportunities to approach, pluck her, and claim her as her own. Whether she succeeded or not was another matter entirely.

Now a highly popular actress, Yan Zhen remained unwavering in her original intention, focused solely on “picking” Doctor Gu.

She always thought her beloved was just an “ordinary person”——

A cardiothoracic surgeon, though naturally cold and abstinent, was kind and gentle, captivating those around her.

Of course, she still couldn’t make Doctor Gu’s heart flutter, which troubled Yan Zhen.

Gu Qinghe, however, saw things differently. Born with the blood of a demon coursing through her veins, her thoughts were steeped in darkness. She had long harbored the desire to tear the other apart and consume her, right down to the bone. She would eliminate all threats, ensuring that Yan Zhen belonged only to her.

—2014 marked a rare period of peace for the world and its magical girls.... more>>

All because they finally managed to lock me in their basement.

I've been called many things: Master of Monsters, The Faceless Villain, Demon King, Savior of Evil.

I, Nekokawa Gin, had finally lost the war against the magical girls.

"So justice really does triumph over evil in the end. Congratulations," I said, facing my captors. "Just kill me and be done with it."

I accepted my defeat with dignity. If anyone had the right to end my life, it was them. After all, I'd defeated them three times before and had pushed them to the edge of sanity more times than I could count.

Just look at them.

The pink-haired girl, whose body now flickers between light and darkness—my handiwork.

The red-haired girl, whose eyes have gone as lifeless as cold ashes—another trophy of mine.

The blue-haired girl with her missing right arm—permanent proof of our battle.

My crimes against them were unforgivable. Death was the only fitting punishment.

But instead of execution, those girls just smiled at me with unsettling grins, pulled out their wands—heavy as crowbars—and thwacked them against my skull.

...Now I go by Nekokawa Shiro.

And I'm... a "special" magical girl under their supervision.

"Wait! Don't you dare use that purple wand on me again!!!" <<less

1.The 21-year-old Xu Ci, spoiled by Fu Sheng, became independent and domineering. After Fu Sheng went overseas, Xu Ci grew sensitive and paranoid. At 23, Xu Ci reunited with Fu Sheng at the birthday party of the crew’s female lead. He extinguished a lit cigarette in his palm, tiptoed to give Fu Sheng a fiery kiss, and possessively declared to the boy who had confessed to Fu Sheng, “Please don’t get involved with a married man.” Yes, they had been separated for three years, but they never broke up. ... more>>

2. After reuniting with Fu Sheng, Xu Ci had three desires: To hug him, kiss him, and imprison him with his feelings so he could only ever look at Xu Ci. The scar on Xu Ci’s wrist, the drugs he carefully hid, and his sleepless nights all seemed to be unintentionally revealed in front of Fu Sheng. How do you gain love forever? By making the one who loves you feel a debt they can never repay. How do you possess someone forever? By letting them know you cannot live without them.

3. Three years ago, Fu Sheng, exhausted from balancing work and Xu Ci’s suspicions, suggested they take a break to calm down. Unexpectedly, when he saw Xu Ci again, the rose he had so carefully nurtured was nearly withered. After painstakingly protecting it, he once again embraced the scarred bird. He bought a new home for the willing bird to nest, but while moving, he found a diary that detailed Xu Ci’s numerous schemes against him.

You Qiuqiu transmigrated into a book and became a cool female N number in the entertainment circle. The position is the supporting role that has no name.... more>>

In this world where people are struggling to get to the top and become a frequent visitor of hot search, looking at everyone around her who is full of ambitions, You Qiuqiu has no fluctuations in her heart and just wants to be a salted fish.

But even if she is a salted fish, in order to become a salted fish with a high quality of life, she is being forced to do business for money.

You Qiuqiu: Paralyzed Salted fish jpg.

So the audience saw this scene –

You Qiuqiu sits in the shady place with her little stick in the variety show while cheering for the guests who have a hard time playing the game with their hideous faces.

Other female stars show off their eighteen martial arts in the live broadcast room to sing and dance. The worst thing was to remove makeup from the live broadcast. You Qiuqiu took out five takeaways.

Today I’m going to show you a live broadcast of fried chicken, kebabs, ice cream, crayfish, and doughnuts.

Audience: “…”

When You Qiuqiu was photographed at the awards ceremony, a handsome man and beautiful woman were sitting dignified around her, but she was sleeping with her mouth open.

You Qiuqiu thinks she is most likely demand to cool down.

She just took a nap! How could she be photographed! So angry!

Then…let’s calm down. The salted fish didn’t want to waste too much brain cells. When she was forced to do business, she still has some money. There are two apartments in the city center, enough to be a charter wife.

Who knows, she is on fire.

"Someone like you, working in an unstable job as an adventurer, wouldn't be thinking about the future, right?"

From the first impression, he was a senior who looked hot. He drove a different foreign car every day and had bleached hair.... more>>

With his handsome appearance and tall stature, he was the center of many rumors.

From light ones like a one-night stand, a clubbing idiot, a womanizing punk, to serious ones like a marijuana smoker and orgy.

“Sleep with me.”

“Why me?”

“Because you’re the most handsome man I know.”

However, the rumors had nothing to do with Yena.

“I want to sleep with a handsome man.”

It was just a deviation to get rid of the image of a “careful eldest daughter” that was constantly being forced upon her.

“Min Yena, why are you ignoring my calls? And who’s that punk next to you?”

“You told me not to act clingy just because we slept together once.”

“No, I told you not to act clingy. Who said I would follow?”

Did that senior, who hated being clingy, know?

“Yena. You really don't know what you're talking about. Do you think I do this to just anyone?"

That he's being really clingy.

"Did you really get me wrong? Do you think other guys are as good as me?"

Oh, right. So who are you asking? <<less

Shen Nanxing died in a very frustrating way—he had stayed up late reading a substitute romance novel and died suddenly. When he woke up, he discovered that he had transmigrated into the very novel and had become the cannon fodder "white moonlight" character. Not only did he share the same name as the original character, but even his face was identical.... more>>

In the original story, Shen Nanxing had cong**ital heart disease and couldn’t handle any emotional stress. His so-called fiancé not only betrayed him but also found someone who resembled him to be a substitute. Eventually, the substitute came to confront him, causing Shen Nanxing to die from anger.

After Shen Nanxing's death, his wavering fiancé finally came to terms with his feelings and began his journey to win back his wife...

Shen Nanxing, lying on the hospital bed, felt hopeless. To change his fate of being cannon fodder, Shen Nanxing decided to distance himself from the main characters. However, he inadvertently caught the attention of someone he shouldn’t have...

—Fu Zhiyuan, upon meeting Shen Nanxing for the first time, was immediately moved. He never expected to fall for Shen Nanxing at first sight, just because of a photo without a face. <<less

In 2008, Yu Xing woke up from a dream to find himself back on the eve of the financial crisis, facing investment losses. That year, as giants took shape and capital awakened, he was forced to navigate a dual path: struggling to build his own business for profit while also, out of necessity, profiting from short-selling other companies.

Much later, when his short-selling alias was exposed by the media, Yu Xing openly admitted, "It was me."

Everything exploded! How could the most conscientious entrepreneur and the most ruthless global short-seller be the same person?! <<less

Sujin, who once had a one-sided crush on Junseong during her college years, became distant from him due to a small misunderstanding. Still unable to forget Junseong, Sujin is working passionately at 'Lavita', the hotel run by his family...... more>>

After 10 years, her one-sided crush returns, now as a powerful director.

[...This spring, I want to pack a lunchbox and go see the cherry blossoms with you.]

And then... she made a huge mistake!

Junseong, the third son of HJ Group’s chairman, and the director of Hotel Lavita. A man who has always grown up to be the best as if it were a given, Song Junseong.

To him, Sujin is the first real obstacle he has faced.

When he was 20, his worry during his college years was “How can I make the girl I have a crush on fall for me?”, but now, at 30, his concern is “How do I make the woman who says she likes me but runs away stay?”

***

“You seem to be under some misconception, but you have no choice in this matter.”

His blunt words left me speechless.

“As you know, I’m a busy person and the one thing I can’t stand in this world is wasting time, so for now, I expect you to be diligent and show up when I call. Whenever it may be, without fail.”

“…”

“Never ignore my calls. By the way, I absolutely hate it when I don’t get an immediate response. Especially when, like yesterday, you turn off your phone, I can’t stand that at all.”

My mouth went wide open in shock.

The man sitting in front of me was definitely the same Song Junseong I knew... But the smile that fleetingly came to mind, the sharpness in his eyes, and the words echoing in my head were all unsettling.

Was this the kind of intense man you were? <<less

Why shouldn’t you read a fantasy novel the day before the college entrance exam?... more>>

There are roughly three reasons.

1. If you read a fantasy novel the day before the college entrance exam, there’s a high probability you’ll get hit by a truck and transmigrate.

2. Usually, a South Korean high school senior who dies right before the entrance exam becomes overpowered in another world.

3. Nevertheless, they face all sorts of hardships before actually becoming overpowered.

Han Yoo-an, guilty of reading the 17-volume traditional fantasy novel "The Book of Irkuth" the day before the college entrance exam, ends up being hit by a truck on the way to the exam and dies.

Did the heavens also feel sorry for the death of a student who scored perfectly on the September mock exam, on the very day of the college entrance exam?

Han Yoo-an is abruptly dropped into the world of "The Book of Irkuth."

Is this finally the start of an overpowered high school student wreaking havoc in another world? That expectation was short-lived.

Not only is it frustrating enough that he doesn’t understand the language, but he was mistakenly dropped into the imperial palace and became the empress’s pet human. On top of that, there are still four centuries left until the protagonist appears.

Others, when transmigrating into novels, live well and comfortably, but it seems he must have committed some grave sin in his past life. There’s no way he’d be cursed with immortality unless he betrayed and sold out his country.

After rolling around and surviving for 400 years, Han Yoo-an, acquiring the title of Great Sage, now simply... just wants to die peacefully.

However, in order to die, he must make sure the descendant of the witch, Yekarina, who left the curse, becomes emperor…

“Who are you? Why are you helping me?”

‘Oh God, have you finally decided to let me die? Thank you!’

Could this really be a birthday gift from God for his 400th birthday?

The descendant of Yekarina, and the protagonist of this novel, has rolled right into his lap. <<less

When novels invade the real world, one by one, self-important protagonists with their novel wills begin to disrupt reality’s order and safety. The Novel Crisis Management Bureau is a specialized agency tasked with handling such situations.

Duan Team Leader, known as the "Nemesis of Protagonists," listens to reports pouring in from all directions. Crawling out of bed, his face—perfect for the agency's beauty idol—remains shadowed by the dark cloud of early-morning grumpiness. Just as he's about to set out to patch up this broken world, a new report comes in: 

"Re-Report, Captain! A rebirth novel has invaded. A large group of reborn individuals is approaching you. They claim you’re the future end-of-the-world boss. Some want to win your favor (flirty looks), some want to heal and warm your heart, and others plan to annihilate you entirely!"

Duan Chunshui: "…Forget the patchwork!"
