Low Tide in Twilight by Euja

 

A dark Boys’ Love omegaverse romance about an omega at his limit and the alpha who plans on making him repay his debt—with his body. The hit webcomic is finally available in English print!

Kim Euihyun is an omega at his limit. After living a life of troubles and owing an unpayable debt that isn’t even his, he’s ready to give up. Hoping to spare himself and his little brother a life of more pain, he opts to walk into the cold depths of the sea. With his escape in reach, it seems like everything will be over soon—until someone catches him. Yeo Taeju, a sadistic alpha who seems to take pleasure in other’s pain, gives Euihyun the choice to pay off his debt with his body but when the omega refuses, Taeju proves he has no other choice.

Still desperate for escape, Euihyun tries to plan his next attempt while doing restaurant work. But with a sorry paycheck that barely covers his interests and his little brother to care for, will Euihyun have to sell his body after all just to survive? And, is it even worth surviving if this is what his life is meant to be?

My Rate: 8 (amzn.to/43EYokZ)

I think I read this manhwa at least three times, and everytime I enjoy it a lot. Not the first chapters, Taeju is basically forcing Euihyun to have sex with him (=rape), and there is no excuse for it, but basically Taeju is an egotistic piece of garbage, and it's only his love for Euihyun saving him. I like this story cause not only Taeju and Euihyun are full fledged characters, there is a whole lot of side characters that made me want to read their story, first in front of all Taeju 's parents. And then, in the side stories, Taeju's brother and sister make an appearance, and even Taeju's grandfather, even if just on the phone. They are all so well drawn, and with their own personality, that you really want more. This is a 100 episode manhwa that leave for thirsty for more once you finish it.

Cherry Blossoms After Winter by Bamwoo

 

Despite growing up together, these childhood friends have grown apart. The fan-favorite boys’ love manhwa turned K-drama comes to print for the first time.

Seo Haebom was seven years old when his parents died in an accident. With nowhere else to go, he moves in with the family of his childhood friend Jo Taesung, who suddenly grows cold and distant, destroying their friendship.

Now it’s their senior year of high school and, after years of barely speaking to each other, Haebom and Taesung are in the same class for the first time. Haebom struggles to make friends and is plagued by bullying, but after the handsome and popular Taesung fends off his most persistent bully, everything changes—they sit together at lunch and begin to act like friends again. Haebom is unsure what to make of the shift, but this could be his last chance to mend their relationship.

My Rate: 8 (amzn.to/3FEmaWk)

The manhwa is way sexier than the drama adaptation but I think I enjoy both. Probably I enjoyed a little more the manhwa cause you see more of the development of the love story between Haebom and Taesung after they go to college, and there is even the figure of Taesung's father, who in the drama adaptation is totally absent if not for buying the apartment where Haebom and Taesung live together. The manhwa is nice in both story and graphic, the sex is not the first thing, like many manhwa, and it arrives later in the story, but then, when it arrives, they will recuperate all they didn't do at first. This is a story who span from high school to college to first employment, so you have plenty of time to enjoy these two characters, and you will miss them once it's time to say goodbye.

My Way with You by Upi

 

Some wounds are slow to heal. Giran’s been alone ever since his grandmother died, and he has no intention of letting anyone into his life. But one day, out of nowhere, he meets an exceptionally pretty face…who’s also exceptionally good in bed. This one-night fling turns into something more when Giran finds out that his meeting with Seon-gyeong was more than just a coincidence. The two have similar pasts that are stained with painful losses. Trauma can be all-consuming, but every walk through life is made better with someone by your side.

My Rate: 8 (www.lezhinus.com/en/comic/way_with_you)

This is basically a short story, just 3 episode, that for a manhwa is basically a preface, but it was long enough to made you wonder about the character of
Seon-gyeong. Some manhwa can be twisted, so even if this is a romance, strange things can happen, and more they are cute, more they are evil. Be aware that the cover is very nice and stylish, but this is a black and white manhwa so it can be disappointing on that regard (I love the full color manhwa), but in this case, I advice you to not be discouraged and to read it, the story make it worth the lack of coloring.
