Top 5 Naver Webtoon Picks

1. “Love Bites”

When Kieran meets his new classmate, Mason Kane, he bristles with an unexplainable disdain. Soon it becomes apparent why: Mason is a werewolf. But when a fight turns into a sudden kiss that neither expects, Kieran’s feelings for Mason turn to attraction in an instant. None of it makes sense—vampires and werewolves are supposed to be mortal enemies, so why does Kieran find Mason so irresistible?

2. “Osora”

Prince Osora is destined to rule over the Calaveras Kingdom in a life planned out by his family since birth, when his father presented him to the kingdom as male. However, the magic-wielding race called the Sergos has a different plan for Osora: to use him as collateral in a war with humans. Bound by what others force him to be and trapped in a love triangle between a promised fiancée and his childhood best friend, Osora must recreate his own story. This series contains themes regarding sexuality, gender identity, homophobia, transphobia, and other prejudices.

3. “Tears on a Withered Flower”

Romance, flowers, and dates—once upon a time, that was the perfect description of Haesu and Mincheol. Now, all Haesu has are the ashes of their marriage and a mountain of debt. But her world shatters completely when Mincheol cheats on her with a young coworker. Hurt and betrayed, Haesu finds herself drawn to Taeha, a young man who seems desperate for her affection… and may be hiding more than he shows.

4. “Rules for Dating Trash”

After a messy breakup with a trashy ex forces Ihyeon Seon to take a three-year break from college, the last thing she wants to do upon her not-so-inconspicuous return is dive straight into another relationship. But then comes Chanu Nam, a notorious bad boy who finds himself having a vested interest in Ihyeon. Suddenly, what was supposed to be a low-key senior year is looking like it’s going to be anything but. The harder Ihyeon pushes Chanu away, the stronger he keeps pulling her back. But something’s got to give—so who’s giving in first?

5. “The Mafia Nanny”

Being an Elite Nanny is simple: protect the charge, obey the principal, and don’t get emotionally attached. Easier said than done when Davina’s first client is a dangerously compelling Venetian underboss who’s determined to get under her skin. What he wants from her, she can’t imagine, but Gabriel Angelini drags her back into the glittering world of organized crime she thought she’d left behind forever. She might get answers about her past if she digs deep enough, but can she protect Mikey from his father’s ambitions and keep her heart from getting tangled up in their treacherous web?
