Literally insane to me how small the general webtoon fandom is outside of the webtoon app itself (and maybe reddit??)

I've talked to multiple people irl who LOVE reading webtoon, but the online community is borderline threadbare ! Most people on Tumblr have no IDEA who our blorbos are! I've checked tags for some fairly popular webtoon and it was like visiting that Tatooine town in the Mandalorian where there are 5 citizens total, but only if you also count the Mayor, the sheriff, and the deputy.

Lore Olympus is the most popular webtoon and has under 2,000 fics on AO3. Lookism has roughly 1,000. Unordinary, THEE legacy webtoon, only has 600, and it's been running for almost 7 years now. It has nearly 6M subscribers and still gets 50K+ likes each week. It's not dead by any means.

I guess it doesn't help that each webtoon is its own micro ecosystem and once a webtoon ends, that ecosystem typically fades with it. But webtoons can go on runs longer than most shows on streaming services, and those fandoms burn hot and bright even if only for the first month of a new season drop.

By comparison, webtoon fans are largely casual about their enthusiasm, even if they're highly invested in the story or characters. From my experience, only the most passionate try to connect with other fans online. But when you're passionate about one webtoon, I suppose it's hard to show constant excitement about the 20+ other stories one might keep up with. Still, between the 85 million monthly readers, you'd think each major webtoon would at least have a dedicated fan base (meaning people who regularly post theories, thoughts, fics, and fanart) of mere thousands outside of the app.

One exception for this is that Batman webtoon? It actually trends on Tumblr every now and again. But it doesn't count, because Batman has a built in fandom who'll eat up and yell in the streets about any content where he's a decent dad.

People who read romance webtoon all tend to read the same comics, and actively understand the references to other popular romance comics (Trashta, Team Seojun, SLS), so you'd think there'd be a greater sense of unity. More people actively searching out others to discuss with and posting their thoughts online and not just in that webtoon's comment section.

I mean, C'MON girls!!! Millions of people log into that app like everyday!!! WHERE is the community?? WHERE is the fanart?? WHERE is the fanfic?? WHY does Odd Girl Out only have 7 fanfics?? WHY are there like 2 people on Twitter posting about Weak Hero?? Head in hands fr

Ch. 1 Ch. 2

You loved the cool breeze after the summer. The gentle breeze also coaxing a calm psithurism that had the power to lull you to sleep on the sharp but flimsy tails of grass your towel sat above. You could feel it through the small holes in the towel. Behind your home stood a thick tree with beautiful baby pink blossoms that were stuck to the branches of the tree until they were ready to fall to the ground through the wind. There was a swing on a bigger branch that stuck further out from the tree. So peaceful you thought to yourself whilst looking forward at the calming sight in front of you. The view of the sunset above the large body of water that was just below the hill you sat atop of was just enough to make you shed a tear. This was a time for you, for them.

The breeze danced againt your glistening cocoa skin and combed through your small faux locs. You felt the hair tickling at the smalls of your exposed back, just above your red panties and passing by your matching red bra.

In clothes, you felt almost suffocated, but that never meant you would wear small clothes and walk in pantie sized denim shorts. When you thought of that, you meant nothing to the women who did, at least they knew how amazing they looked in them. With the right sense of style you could make literally everything look like it's part of a fashion trend.

But in the privacy of your own backyard, since you didn't have neighbors so close by, you loved to lay down a towel in a specific spot behind the swing, and once you were sat on the towel, you rested you arms on it, along with your head laying above your arms while you gazed lovingly at the sunset or sunrise.

It made you feel more at peace than you ever were. While you looked at the sunset above the wooden swing you rested your head on, the twins you carried looked below. And with every second that passed watching the sun set, she felt more and more down to earth.

You were always told by your mother that your kids will always be your future, the reason you can live in peace knowing that they would unconditionally love you, and even more after your mistakes, they learn what to avoid as they grow. Your mother was one for beautiful speeches, a woman who was also down to earth but equally delusional. Other than, your mother was calm, loving, precious, greatful, and more. Overall, you'd describe her as a charming and warm person.

These thoughts were running wild through your head, and you hadn't noticed you'd began to fall asleep until you peeled open your eyes slowly, your lashes fluttering in the air. The breeze, the sound of the blossoms and the green white rose bushes as the flowers and leaves rustled together, the waves of the body of water in front of you crashing and splashing gently against the rocks below. This helped you to sleep. The live sounds of nature were so calming to you, you often left your bedroom door open before you fell into a deep sleep.

You felt a cold fluid slowly sliding down the back of your thumb, where your mouth had been slightly open at. Spit.

You'd been drooling while you slept. Something you sometimes found yourself smiling a small smile at. Guess I should head inside... You thought as you stood up and stepped off of the towel that was sprawled out beneath you, taking it up in your hands and folding it neatly. You were going to miss staring at this scenery behind such a small but gorgeous house. You were going to miss the cool gusts of wind that blow through your hair and made goosebumps rise on your skin. But you thought it was for the better. Your landlord was a bit of a creep, staring you down whenever you opened the door to him, making comments on your body that made you super uncomfortable. You weren't going to stay in this house and take any of what the man was doing to you.

So you've been looking for bigger houses, not too big, with a similar view to the one before you now.

You turned your back to the water and started forward to the backdoor, waddling over with a hand on your back.
