Korean Manhwa/Webtoon Recommendation List (Romance-Fantasy Genre)

I recently got into the romance-fantasy (rofan) genre of Korean manhwa/webtoons and wanted to make a recommendation list about it. This is a recommendation list but I want to briefly talk about some newly released rofan manhwa that I really liked.

(My recommendation list will be divided into different categories so you'll be able to understand what kind of stories they are...)

So recently, I got into these newly released rofan manhwas:

The Wicked Ladies in Waiting

The Promise Isn't Mine

Turning the Mad Dog into a Genteel Lord

Fallen to Paradise

I Swear We're Just Friends

Please Don’t Reply!

High Society

The Wicked Ladies in Waiting

Yulia, who was born an orphan, was killed in exchange for falling in love with the Young Master of the Marjoram Family and was left on a snowy mountain. But when she opened her eyes, at the same location as any other day, she was rescued by the Commander of the Imperial Army, Carus. She was hit by a curse of being unable to die, and this is now her 8th life. After realizing that she would be stuck in the loop forever if she didn't take down the Marquis, she became a servant (2nd prince's lady-in-waiting) within the Palace to utilize the Royal Family’s power to demolish the Marjoram Family in her 8th life. I really love both the FL and the ML here. At first, the ML was suspicious of her when she revealed the truth to him in her 8th life that she had regressed back to the past 8 times, and each and every time she died in various ways, she encountered the ML and he somehow always tried to save her each and every life (even though he doesn't have the memories of his previous 7 lives like the FL). To make him believe her, she offered him help by predicting some future events that were going to occur later on because she had already seen or known about those events from her previous 7 lives. In this way, the FL saved the ML and his comrades' lives in this 8th life, and because of that the ML believed her regression story and offered to help her lifetime. Their relationship progressed well from suspicious strangers to trustful allies. Although we haven't seen much of them yet, I'm still waiting for some romance and fluff to happen in their relationship. The 2nd prince whom she works for and the 1st lady-in-waiting who is her colleague are also interesting characters and have immediately become the FL's good friends and strong allies just like the ML. The FL is strong, smart, and lovable, and the whole revenge plot is really interesting. You would love to see her succeed in her missions. Highly recommend this manhwa/webtoon.

The Promise Isn't Mine

When her twin sister Leyla, the Holy Maiden, suddenly disappears one day, the ordinary Elena finds herself having to marry Crown Prince Kyle, a man infamous for his ruthlessness, in her stead. After a dreadful marriage ceremony, Kyle demands that a certain promise be fulfilled, to Elena’s confusion. Elena and Kyle are actually childhood sweethearts btw. They've both been in love with each other since their younger days. The ML immediately realized who she was, but she didn't recognize him; although she does vaguely remember him from her past, but doesn't know that the man she married is the same boy from her teenage days. I can't wait for her to realize who he actually is; that he's her childhood sweetheart. Also, it's kinda funny how the ML and FL look like Iske and Ruby from "How To Win Over My Husband". However, this ML is a whole lot different from Iske since the ML is genuinely nice, kind, and caring towards the FL from day one. And not to mention that he's still in love with her and immediately recognizes her after meeting her so many years later again. Highly recommend this series.

Turning the Mad Dog into a Genteel Lord

Diarin, a priestess without any noteworthy family background or connections, always gets the toughest assignments. So when her boss tells her to help Ceres, a war hero, reintegrate into society, she decides to stop being a pushover and get as much as she can out of it, including a juicy promotion. But upon reaching Ceres’ manor, she’s greeted by a growling hound instead of a human. Tasked with the impossible job of turning the mad dog into a proper gentleman, she dedicates herself to caring for him. But his unexpected obsession with her was never part of her plan. This one is my No. 1 personal favorite at the current moment!! You can tell by the pictures how funny and hilarious this series is. I won't tell you guys anything more. Just go and read this one as quick as possible!! STRONGLY recommend this series!!!

Fallen to Paradise

Ange, the daughter of Duke Glaster, believes her life is all planned out as she is set to marry Philip Cardiner, the rightful heir to the throne. However, her plans are disrupted when Philip's brother, William Cardiner, schemes against him and removes him from the line of succession. In order to secure his power, William forces Ange to marry Aiden Fitzroy, an illegitimate child born between the emperor and a commoner. Will Ange learn to love the humble stranger she was forced to marry? Another hilarious yet very cute manhwa!! At first, the FL didn't like the fact that she was getting married off to the illegitimate son of the emperor and that the ML lived in the countryside and was also a farmer. The ML also found her a nuisance in the beginning because of her whining and throwing tantrums, but as time went on and they started to understand each other, they began to fight less and tried to get along. Romance also started to blossom between the two as they went on with their lives in the countryside on the farm by planting crops and vegetables and raising cows and pigs. I love how the FL, who was the Duke's daughter and was once the next crown princess, is now just a military officer/farmer's wife, and yeah sure, in the beginning, she used to complain about everything and anything, but she quickly went through a major character development, and now instead of whining and throwing tantrums, she tries to understand her husband and even willingly participates in the farming works. The ML was cold at first and found her annoying, but eventually he also later tried to understand her and her situation and started warming up to her. Very cute manhwa!! Highly recommend this!!

I Swear We're Just Friends

When Rienne transfers to the elite Alena Academy, she never expects Karcion, the most popular mage in school, to recruit her into his club and she definitely doesn't think he'll fall for her! But the grumpy Karcion soon makes it clear how much he adores her, and she starts finding him too cute to ignore. Still, he's a future duke and she's a commoner, so Rienne knows his feelings won't last. Can Karcion magic his way out of the friendzone? Or will Rienne prove they're just friends after all? A typical high school setting kinda story with enemies to lovers troupe; the only twist is that it's a historical fantasy story, not your typical modern high school romance. The FL is a cool smart girl and I loved her from the start. Meanwhile, at first, the ML is also shown to be this cool smart dude and is very popular in school but later it is revealed that he's actually a big tsundere crybaby and is very expressive when showing emotions which makes the FL want to tease him more and more whenever they interact. Since it's a high school romance in a historical fantasy setting, it has a different spin to it and has made the read very much enjoyable which was unexpected. Definitely check this one out! Highly recommend this series.

What’s worse than someone who leaves you on read? How about someone who doesn’t know when to end the conversation? Mira Hexen is cursed to always be the last one to reply for a whole year or she will be turned to stone. But that’s a bit difficult when you’re the chief of a company that produces a massively successful messaging device. Mira’s latest VIP client is Euryx Deyra, an extremely friendly duke who feels the need to respond to every little thing she says. If only she could just tell him to shut up already...! By reading the synopsis you can already tell where this story is going. Read only 4 chapters and found it really cute, funny, and wholesome. Definitely worth checking out. Highly recommend this as well!!

High Society

While scheming to get out of an arranged marriage, Cesare runs into Adele, a shoeshine girl from the slums. The two make a 3-month deal to help Cesare elude marriage. However, Adele is so different from the women he's met before that he can't help but be drawn to her. Okay, so this series might not be everyone's cup of tea since the ML is a super red flag, and the FL is kinda like a doormat. Sure she fights back from time to time, but since she's under a contract with the ML and he's the Duke of a powerful ducal family, she always can't say anything she wants to him. At first, the ML didn't care that much about her and didn't see her as a woman with whom he could have a potential romantic relationship but as time went on, he fell more for her beauty and personality, but there was a problem - the ML had already introduced the FL to the high society that she was his blood-related little sister. Now how could he have a romantic relationship with his so-called "blood-related little sister"? The thing is, the ML was trying to get out of this arranged marriage alliance that was set with this crazy woman from another powerful ducal family. But this marriage alliance was very important for political reasons and also to maintain a good relationship between those two families in the empire. But the ML didn't want to marry that crazy woman, so he found the FL (who was willing to help him out btw) on the streets one day, took her in, and used her as a shield to stay away from that marriage. How so? By offering the FL as the bride of that crazy woman's little brother. The FL would get married off to that crazy woman's brother while the ML won't have to marry that crazy woman anymore, and therefore with that, the alliance would still be made between the families without him getting married, of course. But what is he gonna do about this situation now that he's falling for the FL? Is he gonna let the FL go and let her get married to that crazy woman's little brother? Or is he gonna seduce her and make her his and only his?? The ML is super toxic and a huge red flag, but he's so fucking beautiful that I just can't, y'all!!! Like, look at his dimples OMG!!! Although the ML is super toxic and a major scumbag at times, the story is still super engaging not gonna lie. Highly recommend this to check it out!!

Also, here's the link to the photo gallery of Cesare Bonaparte, a toxic yet sexy and beautiful male lead - Link

The reader can be gender neutral or fem reader. The choice is yours.

Take care💖

(Thank you for the request Juve!)

Melissa Podebrat X Reader Dating HCs

✯ Dating Melissa is a chore on its own, a cute and amazing chore, you wanna do every day, but a chore nonetheless. She is always running around with Nine and Yuri, causing problems for you and Yona, but at-least Yona gets paid for it, you’re signed up for it and you’re not getting any pay, except maybe her whole love, kisses, hugs and clinginess.

✯ You and her taking Liev for a walk in the evenings and sleeping with it, spending time with it, it’s your baby now. Melissa may not like Live a lot in the beginning, but she does now but she doesn’t at the same time, it takes your attention away from her for too long.

✯ Melissa, you, Nine and Yuri all three go around causing trouble and having fun and causing a headache for Yona, you and her you both annoy each other and challenge each other all the time!

✯Melissa is most likely to keep you relationship a secret because she doesn’t want her father, her brother or any annoying person who hates her say she’s love sick, but that doesn’t mean you aren’t important to her and she doesn’t love you and your relationship.

✯Nine is the third wheel who accompanies you both to you dates and he is getting annoyed with Melissa for this. Mainly because he feels so awkward around you and Melissa being lovey-dovey conversations, where he’s always laughing loudly and stiffly and awkwardly and then Melissa will get a bit mad and shoo him away, making him happy…

✯Melissa would often go to Yuri to ask for gift suggestions because she has no idea how a relationship works. Not that she does, but since you’re very special to her, she always asks for suggestion to ensure 80 times that the present and the things she doing for you is gonna make you happy!

✯Melissa and you both often ask Heini to make you both foods in the middle of the night when you have sleepovers with each other and she complies because she loves you as a friend.

✯You often watch Melissa practice sword-fighting and sometimes she even asks you to practice with her. And then you both will practice, swinging you swords around and then you both will kiss in the middle of it, don’t ask why, it’s something you both just began doing and it confuses everyone including you and her…

✯Ever since Jake found out about you two dating, he started to pull more pranks on her because he knows you will calm her down when she’s angry to stop her from hurting him. So like he will throw a bucket of cold water on her when she’s just done taking a bath and then you will try to calm her and then prank Jake back, but worse….

✯You often take Liev for walks when Melissa is busy, so he knows you well and loves you just as much as Melissa. Live now knows when you both are going to come, so when he hears you come he gets excited and jumps up and barks and if Melissa doesn’t join you, you are always happy to spoil the doggo with treats and you also try to teach him tricks and buy him doggy sleeping gowns/ dresses, because first why not?? Second, it makes everyone laugh and smile!

✯Melissa often has you on her lap when you both sleep. Like Melissa will come back tired and she is doing like paperwork as a duke now, so she will have you on her lap as she kisses you in between and when you fall asleep, she will kiss you and then hug you as she falls asleep too…

✯She loves to put kisses on your lips. She will do it randomly too, like you both are just sitting eating food and she will go, *puch* and you’re like ‘bruh, we’re in front of your dad and he’s talking with me and I was answering, can you not? Your father will kill me…’ and she does not give a shit…

✯ Melissa is definitely the one proposing, she has a ring and everything, you know how she proposes to Nine, please act as dramatically as you can make her smile and laugh while she cries out of happiness, it makes you both happy!

✯ You and Melissa always bake pizzas, she taught you how to! And you both decorate them prettily and then you both have too much pizza left, so you give it to Heini and Yona and tell them to distribute it between the servants! And give the rest to Yuri to distribute it between the people in the Elizabeth manor, that’s how much pizza you and Melissa make!
