We are shifting gears from action to horror with RD and Kiro’s The Last Passage. The story follows Huiseo Yun’s journey into what he suspects to be the afterlife. But this terrifying world isn’t what he expected hell to look like. Nothing about this is what he expected.

Our first official romance series on the list is Puik’s Hiding in the Moon. The story follows Siomara after she escapes the capital and tries to live her life avoiding the Darkness. But when a stranger moves in next door, she has to decide if he is worth risking everything for. It’s an outstanding balance of romance, supernatural and minor suspense.

The Gwichon Village Mystery
A surprise must-read for us in 2024 was Daehan LEE and Yellow Sheep’s The Gwichon Village Mystery. This thriller WEBTOON series follows Mumyeong Heo. After a visit to his late grandmother’s home, he begins to realize that her neighbors aren’t thrilled with his visit, and slowly, they start disappearing, one by one.

Red Spine
Swapping thriller for action, we have Zeroci’s Red Spine. And if the action WEBTOON series is a must-read in your book, this should be at the top of your list. In this world, monsters live among us. In fact, they are so terrifying that a group was created to protect the world when the breakout occurred. Venix is one of those soldiers who is trying to prove himself among his comrades. But little does anyone know; a monster lives among them.

Star Catcher
Sliding back into romance, we have Ro-taniah’s Star Catcher series. The series features heavy mental health tones as it follows Lucas’ battle with his demons that take him from a ray of sunshine to a meek and depressed young adult. Little did he know that when he decided to shut out the world around him, someone would show up to change everything. What he thought was an everyday run-in with a stranger becomes his chance to forgive and love himself again. The series doesn’t shy away from Lucas’ struggles, and we love seeing him find himself again.

Winter Before Spring
We loved the drama scene in 2024 and Moonbun00 and Rinucomics’ Winter Before Spring was a big reason for that. The story follows Hana as she falls in love with her best friend. But as their love blossoms, Hana learns things about her girlfriend that paint a terrible picture of who she thought she was. When Hana thinks all is lost in love, a new face arrives to remind her how beautiful love can be. It’s a heartwarming story of finding yourself, finding love and finding love again.
Winter Before Spring updates every Thursday. Readers can find it on the official WEBTOON page.
My Best Friend is an Eldritch Horror
Who would we be without diving into a series with HP Lovecraft vibes? Actus and AETHON’s My Best Friend is an Eldritch Horror is a fantasy WEBTOON that follows Damien Vale who is learning that rushing into things isn’t always the best choice. In fact, this decision bound him to an unfathomable and utterly evil Eldritch creature who goes by Henry. But Damien isn’t going to let that stop him from learning magic and becoming the best of the best. It’s a great series that deserves a read.

A Spell for a Smith
ArtSasquatch’s A Spell for a Smith took us by storm when it was released in February of this year. We thought we were diving into a sweet fantasy series where a shy witch and surly blacksmith fall in love. But we were met with so much more than that. As the two try and find solace in their respective peace, they can’t help but be drawn to each other. But after years of dealing with their own mental health and struggles, they find it hard to allow themselves the ability to let the universe in. It’s sweet but also deals with heavy tones that might not suit all readers.
A Spell for a Smith updates every Saturday. Readers can find it on the official WEBTOON page.
Not So Silent
Our final must-read WEBTOON released in 2024 is Roseoak’s Not So Silent. The romance series follows Lewis, a perfect student with absolutely no time for himself. But when Fern arrives on the scene, things begin to change. But what happens when one stops living up to the expectations of the world around them? Is it okay to change priorities even though it upsets the balance of everyone else? It’s rough being in high school, and Lewis is living it.
