In attempting to recruit a successor, Naryecheong’s chief exorcist, Yoon Taehee, searches for a ‘gwijae’, someone who has the ability to see and hear ghosts.

Everyone in the Immortal Realm knows that Xuyun Sect had produced two powerhouses.... more>>

The eldest disciple, Lin Fuqing, was extraordinarily gifted and brilliant, and everyone who met him was captivated by his outstanding talent. After the Immortal Calamity, he became the Demon Lord who looked disdainfully upon the world.

The second disciple, Fang Zhiyuan, born an evil star of misfortune, was wild and unruly. Everyone who saw him said that this child would go astray in the future. After the Immortal Calamity, he became the respected Immortal Sovereign.

After a hundred years of opposition, they were reborn. The pair of brothers who were able to shake the Immortal Realm with a stomp of their feet realized: What’s the point of being the Demon Lord and the Immortal Sovereign? On the surface, they seemed full of glory, but in secret, they couldn’t even hug their senior (junior) brother. It’s better to retire back to the sect.

Retirement was wonderful, and swords were sheathed in exchange for fine wine.

Happy and carefree, and still might even be able to practice dual cultivation.

Until those familiar cultivation families, peerless masters, powerful monsters, and demon supremes from the previous life…were reborn one after another and came to the door to curry favor. The “happy” Demon Lord and Immortal Sovereign only then remembered that there was a terrible immortal calamity waiting for them.

The world, ah, so annoying.

To live a peaceful life, one must save the three realms.

–The most unrestrained spirit, shattering the red star, in exchange for the blue sky. <<less

Jiang Heng lived a carefree life until he was eighteen, when he was suddenly informed that he was the fake young master in a switched-at-birth scenario. The pampered young master of the Jiang family instantly became an orphan with no one to rely on. Before he could recover from this news, an out-of-control truck overturned, crushing him on the spot and ending his life.... more>>

When he woke up again, he found that he had not only transmigrated to four years later, but had also become a stray cat.

A newly weaned, little over a month old, seriously ill kitten, one that could kick the bucket at any moment.

Jiang Heng held up his furry paw, bewildered in the wind, "..."

How can this meow live?

With no survival experience, after getting himself covered in dust and dirt, Jiang Heng, having learned his lesson through painful experience, decided to find a sucker – a human to scam.

So he snuck into the university he had applied to before his death.

He saw Lu Yichuan in the crowd, his childhood friend he grew up with.

The dirty little kitten darted out from the bushes, bumping into Lu Yichuan's shoes, then delicately fell to the ground, his intention to scam very obvious.

Lu Yichuan was about to leave, but when he saw the kitten's bright, star-like eyes, he paused, slowly squatted down, extended a fingertip and poked the kitten's forehead, his voice as gentle as always, "Do you want to come with me?"

"Meow~"

Top-tier meal ticket, activated!

****

Lu Yichuan, a second-year graduate student in the Philosophy Department of A University, is the university's recognized male god, with a reputation so good it's breathtaking.

He is gentle and reasonable, treating everyone with good temper, his words and actions impeccable.

Over the years, countless men and women have confessed their love to him, and he hasn't agreed to any of them.

Someone was curious about what kind of person he likes.

The man looked up at the sky, the sun dazzlingly painful to the eyes.

He smiled and said, "Someone like the sun, I guess."

It's just a pity that his sun sank to the bottom of the sea in his twentieth year.

Since then,

The world could no longer be illuminated by a single ray of light.

****

Jiang Heng felt that becoming Lu Yichuan's cat was the most correct decision he had ever made in his life.

The man never restricted his freedom, cat food was plentiful, canned food was readily available, and he could wander outside for days and nights without being noticed.

Until Lu Yichuan was suddenly hospitalized. When he woke up, he tied a red string around his neck, and everything changed.

The perpetually open window was shut tight, and the man, who often stayed out all night, now spent almost twenty-four hours a day in the dormitory.

If he felt stuffy, the man would take him for a walk. If he felt the dormitory was small, the man would take him to a large villa...

As long as he left Lu Yichuan's sight for more than ten minutes, the man could always pinpoint his location.

He held his favorite canned food in his hand, his eyes holding an unreadable darkness, "Rongrong, it's time to go home."

Jiang Heng: QAQ

He didn't want to go back either, but he had canned food! <<less

7 years of unrequited love and another 7 years of relationship.... more>>

Kyeoul believed that the love completed over a long time with Ithae would continue forever and beyond.

But.

“Looks like he’s out with that person again today.”

There was a reason why Ithae was diagnosed with fatigue syndrome.

Meetings with another person, continuing since last spring.

Ithae no longer smiled when looking at Kyeoul, and Kyeoul simply resigned himself to looking at such an Ithae.

“If it’s not fate, we need to break up.”

For both Ithae’s sake and his own. Holding onto each other was wrong.

Rather, we needed to let go and at least preserve our memories.

That brilliant youth once upon a time.

So that the past, which burned with a bright fire, would no longer become pitiful.

Kwon Ithae (32).

Lived a monotonous life. Until meeting Kyeoul. After meeting Kyeoul, his monotonous world began to move. With trembling excitement and beauty. This thrilling feeling that love gives cannot last forever.

Choi Kyeoul (32).

Even 7 years of relationship turned out to be useless. Constant communication and meetings with a person who is not me. Cold attitude, different from before. There were no more reasons to desperately cling to this relationship. I just needed to let go, but somehow it turned out to be so difficult. With age, he absolutely couldn’t stand fatigue.

When to read: When you want to see the outcome of love irretrievably destroyed by fatigue.

Your Highness, it seems that I’ve transmigrated.... more>>

In order to make a living, she starts working as a maid, but ends up being tricked by the interviewer and entering the obsessive and crazy Duke Hector’s manor.

‘This doesn’t seem quite right…’

The only consolation is that there is still one year left before it descends into disaster!

One year later, the appearance of the female protagonist Liliana and the start of Hector’s mad obsession and massacre.

Ji Xiao Zhenren wielded his divine power, splitting mountains and parting seas, penetrating the heavens and the earth, known as the 'First Sword of Han Shan'.... more>>

Fellow cultivators respected him, disciples admired him, and demon cultivators feared him. If it weren't for his ignorant, incompetent, and inconsiderate Dao companion, he would have been almost perfect.

Meng Xueli's talent in cultivation was mediocre; he lacked a refined and ethereal demeanor and had never cultivated seductive skills. He was merely an ordinary beauty. The cultivation world was not short of beauty; being ordinary was almost synonymous with being tacky.

Ji Xiao unexpectedly took a liking to such a tacky Meng Xueli, revealing that cultivation does not necessarily elevate one from having bad tastes. His aesthetic judgment was indeed questionable.

It wasn't until the untimely demise of Ji Xiao Zhenren that Meng Xueli, at a young age, found himself widowed.

With the upheaval in the sect and enemies knocking at the door, chaos ensued. Eventually, with the collapse of the tree, the monkeys scattered, and the collapse of the wall, everyone pushed... pushed, but they couldn't move?! <<less

“I have no intention of touching a woman. That applies even to my wife.”  ... more>>

Ryu Sung-woon, a man seeking a child through in vitro fertilization from his blind date partner. Instead, Su-hwa steps in for the woman who stormed out and offers him a contract marriage.  

“I’ll give birth to your child.”  

After five years, she reunites with her first love. But Sung-woon fails to recognize her—not even realizing she was the intruder who once climbed over the villa’s wall.  

However, on their wedding night, when she expects them to sleep in separate rooms, her husband climbs into her bed.  

“W-Why are you taking off your clothes?” 

"Then, do you prefer keeping them on, Ms. Song Su-hwa?"  

Sung-woon had even come out as a man who preferred men. He didn’t want to be with a woman, which was why he had insisted on in vitro fertilization. So why…?  

“What’s the problem? You said you’d bear my child. It was clearly stipulated in the prenuptial contract and notarized, wasn’t it?”  

Looking into his wife’s wide, startled eyes, Sung-woon smirked in satisfaction. The intruder who had once made him question his own s*xual orientation had walked right into his life.   

How could he have forgotten those dark, pebble-like eyes? He had imagined kissing her countless times.  

“I won’t let you slip away a second time.”  

It seems my preference has always been the same. Back then and now, it’s still you.   <<less

"Ah, him? He's just Daeyeong's acquaintance." He hated those words.... more>>

Choi Seolwoo is trying to leave behind his teens and twenties, which he spent as Won Daeyeong's shadow.

Won Daeyeong (gong), the national team captain who became the first Korean track and field athlete to qualify for the Olympics in the 400m, and Choi Seolwoo (soo), a newly qualified Certified Public Accountant, are childhood friends of over a decade. Choi Seolwoo, weary of the pain of his obsessive unrequited love for Won Daeyeong, impulsively enters into a contractual relationship with a sub-seme and declares a break-up with Won Daeyeong, intending to completely remove him from his life and start anew.

Won Daeyeong is displeased with Choi Seolwoo trying to end their friendship over a relationship. Just how much attention had he demanded since they were young? Even he himself acknowledged how incredibly well he’d treated him. It wasn't as if he had expected anything in return for looking after him, but still, this is absurd. To take him for granted and push him aside like this.

Won Daeyeong proposes that if Choi Seolwoo appears on five episodes of a segment called "An Acquaintance" on his Xtube channel, which has 1.1 million subscribers, he will agree to the break-up.

The filming of a variety show exposing every detail of Won Daeyeong's life begins. Unexpectedly, the view count explodes due to the spicy and entertaining talk with frequent bleeps, the genuine bromance chemistry and realistically fierce fights, and Choi Seolwoo's idol-like visuals. Choi Seolwoo, the "break-up guy," ends up advertising himself to the entire nation as Won Daeyeong's best friend.

Wait, somehow this… seems to be moving further away from a break-up…? <<less

Two years ago, Baek Sanghee (Ji Geonoh) caused a stir due to a mutual assault incident with a fellow actor and enlisted in the military as soon as the matter was settled. Even after his discharge, public opinion remained unfavorable, his contract with his previous agency was terminated, and his debts from penalties continued to grow. With Baek Sanghee himself lacking the will to make a comeback and no one seeking him out, a return to the entertainment industry seemed unlikely. At that moment, a newly established agency, SSIN Entertainment, proposed an exclusive contract with unprecedented terms.... more>>

“The principal is 1.4 billion won, with 1.13 billion won in interest accrued over two years and three months. Of that, 780 million won has been repaid, leaving a remaining debt of 1.75 billion won.” Seo Hanyeol tossed the documents he had been reviewing onto the table. “Let’s use that 1.75 billion won as Mr. Ji Geonoh’s signing bonus.”

A sudden laugh burst from Baek Sanghee. Seo Hanyeol watched him curiously, a smirk spreading across his own face. “Why are you laughing?”

“I was wondering if you’re starting a charity instead of an entertainment company.”

“You came here knowing full well, didn’t you? That I’m the only one who’d throw that kind of money at you right now.”

“Still, I didn’t expect you’d treat me this generously.”

“If you think this treatment is generous, you should also consider how harsh the alternative would be.”

Seo Hanyeol, the CEO of SSIN Entertainment, who cleared Baek Sanghee’s massive debt in one fell swoop under the guise of a signing bonus, was actually someone who had become a sort of non-biological brother to Baek Sanghee long ago due to their parents’ remarriage. The relationship between the two, which had been fraught since their high school days, became steeped in a complex mix of affection and resentment over the course of ten years. From their first meeting, Seo Hanyeol showed an unusual interest in Baek Sanghee and eventually offered to be his sponsor. <<less

In the midst of a harmonious and blissful newlywed life with her beloved child and dependable husband, she was surrounded by happiness, every moment a precious gift, even if it meant trading her own life.... more>>

Or so she thought. But then, she died.

…Huh?

‘I didn’t mean I actually wanted to die!’

She was sure she had only fallen asleep and woken up, but when she came to her senses, she found herself a translucent body floating in mid-air.

How perplexing.

-Hey, can’t you see me? You too, over there? …Butler? Head maid?

To her utter confusion, not only had four years passed since her death, but she had also become a ghost.

-…Oh my?

"..."

-Oh, oh my, it’s true? … it’s true?

Apparently, her ghostly form was only visible to her four-year-old son. Left with no choice, she initially pretended to be a guardian angel sent by his mother to watch over her son. However, upon observing the clear signs of neglect he had endured while being confined to the attic of the mansion, her heart sank.

As if that wasn’t enough,

-My baby, how long have you been living here?

"I’m not a baby…"

-…Right. So, what’s your name?

“… Young Master?”

…He didn’t even have a name at the age of four.

Had my f*cking husband lost his mind? When had he ever shown any genuine gratitude for me giving birth to our child?

She vowed to give her husband, who was currently away on business, a piece of her mind when he returned. She would avenge the suffering her son had endured.

With that thought in mind, she gritted her teeth. But then she noticed…

‘…What on earth is that?’

His once handsome face was now gaunt and haggard, with dark circles etched beneath his sharp, piercing eyes.

She was shocked by the stark difference from the last time she had seen him.

"I can’t quite remember how your voice sounded anymore…"

Unable to bear the thought of her husband’s contempt, Alyssa tries to avoid him, but for some reason, Kieran keeps approaching her.
