"Since we can never go back to being just friends, us." Han Gyeom and Seoyoon, childhood friends who’ve never been apart for even a moment since birth, for 30 years. But their once unshakable bond crumbled overnight because of one reckless mistake. "I liked that day. Didn’t you, too?" "I…" They’re neither lovers nor just friends. Han Gyeom, who wants to keep this ambiguous relationship going, looked unusually bright today. "Make your choice. Either we go on like this, or we never see each other again." "If we can’t stay partners like this, are you saying we should cut ties completely?" Thirty years of friendship were hanging by a thread. Seoyoon’s face turned pale at the weight of those words. "Still confused? Then let’s check again." "Check what?" "Whether I can still be just a friend to you." The moment Seoyoon looked into Han Gyeom’s burning gaze, he realized with certainty— they had already crossed a river they could never return from.

I have a friend. A friend I only meet at night—my night friend. I don’t know his name, his age, or even his number. All I know is his sculpted, handsome face, his intense gaze that freezes me in place, and the way his powerful movements drag me into pleasures I’ve never known before. It’s been a month since I started this secret relationship with my night friend. Then one day… I saw him. In broad daylight. At my workplace.

Baek Gil is a specialist in morphological medicine at Yeonggwang Hospital and a famous star doctor known through TV appearances and lectures. With top-tier skills, striking looks, and even being called the ideal alpha husband candidate, he seems absolutely perfect. However, he has one fatal flaw… He suffers from pheromone insensitivity, a condition that prevents him from sensing others’ pheromones—making it impossible for him to become aroused on his own. To solve his problem, Baek Gil begins serious research into pheromone control. While searching for research samples, he meets Kim Rohee, an omega nurse with pheromone-related issues. During a routine sample collection, Rohee’s pheromones suddenly amplify— and Baek Gil unexpectedly reacts. Thus begins a chaotic, sweet omegaverse romance between So Baek Gil, a perfect yet oddly clumsy alpha doctor, and Kim Rohee, an omega nurse who carries a complex about her pheromones. ♥

"Shall we make a bet? If you, Moon Soo-ah, can disappear from my sight for more than 24 hours, you win." "And if I lose? What happens then?" "Then I do whatever I want." He caressed the area beneath Soo-ah’s lips stickily with his thick, long thumb. While her body stiffened at the erotic sensation, he tilted his head and leaned in closer. Soo-ah was terrified, but she looked up at him, pretending not to be. Seomun Hwon was smiling with the face of a victor. It was a proposal she had agreed to, but neither her heart nor her body was ready. Just as she was about to reject him out of fear, their lips overlapped.

Sehui, who had been an ordinary college student, visits a rural village during a club activity. There, due to a mysterious power, he suddenly turns into a woman. He must find a way to return to his original body quickly, but… “You’re Oh Se-hui, right? I’ll keep your secret… but in return, let’s have some fun together from time to time?” (A dangerous proposition from someone who discovers his secret.)

"Get on your back like a dog. I'll use you properly." Web novels are her life and truth. And among them, dark/angst-filled stories are her love. It was perhaps natural that Maeng Hae-eun was captivated by Nam Ju-gang, who was the spitting image of the male lead from her novel. An executive of a powerful, shadowy organization, disguised as a corporation. Tall, with broad shoulders and thick muscles. Even his cold way of speaking and charisma. To capture her dream ideal type, Hae-eun decides to become the female lead in a dark/angst-filled novel. ©Chamishop, Jjeong-i (Original: Gudgi)/Metatoon

“Should I just cum inside and keep two households? Haa….” Right after graduating high school, she was ensnared by Han Joo-eon, a sweet but married man, and became his mistress. But she didn’t care—because she loved him. “Is this an affair or are we lovers? Say it yourself.” “……” “I said, say it.” “Fine, it’s an affair. So what? What are you going to do about it?” However, when her classmate Hwa-ik discovers their illicit relationship, cracks start forming between the three of them… “Wanna try?” “……” “Think of it as screwing over your old man too.” Hey, mister— Even if I sleep with another guy, you still won’t divorce your wife? Really?

“I’m pregnant. And it’s not your child—it’s another man’s.” Jaehyuk’s cold gaze swept over Soyun’s stomach. “Didn’t you say you liked me? And yet, another man?” “It was a misunderstanding.” “What?” “I mistook admiration for love. Longing for something I could never have…” In her childhood, Jaehyuk had seemed like a prince when she met him in a mansion as vast as a castle from a fairy tale. That first love became a long, painful unrequited one that tormented Soyun. Because Han Jaehyuk was a man she could never have. “So let’s end it here. Our relationship.” “……” “Executive Director Han Jaehyuk.” Just as Soyun was about to walk away from him, Jaehyuk shoved her against the wall. “What are you doing?” “It’s fine. I’ll overlook your reckless behavior—just this once. Of course, it’ll be the last.” Right before their lips touched, Jaehyuk whispered low into Soyun’s ear. “Don’t even dream of running away from me. For the rest of your life.”

If you don’t remain pure, you’ll be cursed…?! I opened my eyes underwater and saw splendid, historical palace-style buildings. There’s no doubt—I’ve possessed someone inside a story!
