Request Update
All requests for Windbreaker will be worked on. It may take longer than planned due to the recent events and honestly, needing some time to heal from it. But, again, I'll be getting them done.
Requests are still open and other requests regarding DC are also in the process of being completed as well.

There's a lot of misinformation that's being spread on X, reddit, and insta, so this post is meant to clear the biggest ones that's been circulating so far:
Windbreaker was discontinued due to tracing, NOT from stealing lines of other characters or parts of a story from different series or AI. More can be read about this in this post here
In the featured chapters on JYS's blog, this character:
Tumblr media
is not June. It's revealed to be none other than Mahon Jo as stated in the panel above that one:
Tumblr media
TL: Mahon Jo get up, the VIPs are here
3. The blog/final manuscript mentioned in the announcement contains the finished colored chapter of 556 which was planned to be released the upcoming Monday, incomplete version of 557, and the outline of next Windbreaker series which can be found here.
4. Naver has taken down the official, KRN Windbreaker while JYS studios account on insta is deleted. (Edit 7/12/25)
Lastly, this is a reminder that it's okay to be angry. It's okay to be disappointed. It's okay to be heartbroken. But it's never okay to send racist or threatening messages to other fans or the author, himself.

So about Windbreaker...
Yes, it's officially over and the webtoon is no longer going to continue. Naver Webtoon's KR just posted an announcement with JYS's apology regarding the situation about how he had traced other's fan arts and manga scenes during the last two arcs iirc.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It started after some readers noticed the similarities between the poses the characters were making which a redditor compiled here. The readers who brought the issue up also used similar and other pics btw. Naver Webtoon's did a full out investigation and brought down the decision that yes, JYS traced and terminated Windbreaker.
Further proof that Windbreaker will no longer continue is seen on the official webtoon site, where all 555 chapters are released from paywall here.
That being said, please be kind to one another as many fans are feeling down including myself for the time being.

Do you have a thing for reverse harem? If so, i would LOVE to see that in Sabbath Crew... Like they have crush on reader and try to flirt with reader, they also be jealous of each other when someone receives more warmth from reader, obviously reader ofc hehehe, ty ♡♡
a/n: feat. information from the krn namu wiki including Joker's apparent love for apples, Hyuk being a polyglot according to Windbreaker's insta. q&a because he's a "secret character", and more
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This ain’t it.
This really isn’t it.
“Get. Off!” You growl, one hand shoving the arm slung around your shoulders while the other shoves the body leaning against you.
“Aw, don’t be like that babe.” Wooin snickers, his signature smirk on his face while Hyuk takes another bite of his banana and repositions himself so that you won’t be able to move your arm.
“Babe? Babe?! Who’s your-!” 
Today was supposed to be your day. The one lone day you’ve been looking forward to spending all to yourself, away from everything and everyone. 
Splurged on every grocery trip so you’d be prepared and well stocked, cleaning every so often to be free of any house-chores. When Wooin texted if you wanted to hang out anytime soon, you straight up lied and replied no and you’re working the whole month. 
This morning, you positioned your black-out curtains like all the other times whenever you’re about to go to work and proceeded to stay inside your unit, not even taking  a single step out. 
Just like Rome wasn’t built in a day, your day-off wasn’t going to happen unless you planned. And planned, you did. You planned for so long- just how the actual fuck did they know you were home????
“Are you guys going to eat or not?”  Standing in front of the table with a pot of ramyun, an irritated sigh slips out of Vinny. 
“Well, I would help if I wasn’t-“ 
“Not you.” His eyes soften a quick second before going back to a glare. “I meant those two.” 
“Hah? You and Joker are already cooking and hogging up all the space in the kitchen.” 
“I can’t cook.” 
As if the murder in Vinny’s eyes isn’t enough, you can feel Wooin instantly on the edge for some reason and, in the corner of your eye, Hyuk giving the other an indecipherable look.
All which you have no heart dealing with currently. Like, no. Nope. You’re not in the mood to deal with bloodshed. You would like to stay in a single piece, unharmed, please and thank you. 
With a few harsh tugs, you stumble getting up from the floor, mumble an apology after (purposely) stepping on Hyuk’s thigh, and head towards the kitchen. Not noticing the smug grin Vinny makes and the scowl on the other two ravenette’s faces.
Ironically deeming the kitchen as the safest place, you’re welcomed by the smell of stir-fried rice and dumplings that Joker was cooking up on the stove. 
“Right behind you.” You warn, worming between the counter and the tall-male to open the cupboard behind him to grab the necessities. 
It seems like he didn’t hear you though, taking a step back to toss the rice up only to bump into you. 
You instinctively close your eyes and yelp in surprise as you prepare for the incoming impact between you and the frame of the cupboard. Only, it doesn’t happen. 
“You okay?” One large hand firmly holding your waist, it takes a hot second to put two and two together what happened. 
“Uh, er, yeah. I’m fine. Thanks.”
Heat builds up under your cheeks, your heart skipping a beat and your body hyper aware of everything. His blue-steels eyes, the warmth seeping into your side, his face less than a book’s width away from yours-
“Hey. Are you guys done or are we going to starve?”
…Right, the two of you aren’t alone.
There and then, the rest of the food gets served and somehow you end up once again getting stuck between the chaotic duo. As if that isn’t worse, Joker keeps placing a dumpling into your bowl only for Hyuk to casually eat it every time you look away as Wooin would snark about it on the side.
Trust Vinny to be the normal one out of the four and your sanity, being a gentleman in cracking open and handing you another can of Chilsung Cider as you find yourself on fruit-cutting duties with the rest of the apples (all that were getting consumed by Joker by the way albeit with hesitation because they were shaped as bunnies) and Wooin nagging for who knows for what this time. 
“By the way, didn’t you say you were at work?” The second Hyuk asks, the room stills and all eyes are directed on you. 
“W-well, why were you all coming over to my place I said I wasn’t here?” You mentally curse at both him and yourself, him bringing up the question you’ve been avoiding this whole time while you fumble over your words out of nervousness. 
“ ‘Cause that one coworker you hate was at the club Wooin was doing business last night and mentioned you had the day off to him?” 
There goes another reason for you to add the list as to why you hate them. 
“Scusa, parlo solo Italiano.” 
“Va bene, so parlo anche l’italiano.” 
What the-You thought the only other two languages he knew were English and Spanish???
In the end, peace and quiet you desperately wanted gets ripped out of your hands. On top of making every excuse that could possibly exist, you kept getting moved around where you’d be seated next to one of them only for another to make a fuss and have you sit next to them instead until they decided, on their own accord, to crash at your place. And that’s after complaining about how it’s too late and dangerous to head back to their own places then accusing you for wanting them to be in danger when you said no.

Spoiled
Summary: he's in a mood and wants to get spoiled but you're distracted by the show you're watching and don't notice
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dick:
He’s unhappy. Grumpy. And it’s getting worse because he’s not being given what he needs (wants): you.
Having dropped himself right next to you on the couch, he plops his head onto your shoulder, waiting for you to give him head pats. 
A second pass. Two. A minute.
Both his eyes and lips flattens, not at all pleased that you’re distracted with whatever you’re currently watching.
Shuffling a bit into a more comfortable position, he grunts and pushes his face into the crook of your neck. 
With some nuzzling, this time, you rest your head on top of his which, really? You’re going to tease him now of all times? He is in need of all your time and attention, but you’re choosing to tease him-? 
“Okay, okay. I get it- just stop looking at me that way.” 
“Hmph.” He sniffs, rubbing his cheek against your shoulder. 
Arms wrapped around your waist, he finally gets what he wants and  uncoils under all the touch you give from playing with his hair to spooning with you being the bigger spoon and him the smaller one. 
Jason:
He does not brood. He gets in a mood while brooding? That’s reserved for a certain someone else. 
Tension rolling off of him, he slouches on the couch with arms crossed and legs spread.
 It takes a lot for him to not scowl, a tick in his jaw, listening to you munch on another piece of popcorn when he's right there next to you, clearly not in that great of a condition.
Leaning his head back on the headrest, he lets out a heavy sigh through his nose. Half-lidded eyes glances at the screen with a very-judgmental tiny frown before closing them completely and deciding to simply settle with your presence. Because why not; he has you and you’re busy watching your show, not at all making him feel neglected- 
“You know, you can always ask.” 
You pull his arm and wrap it around yourself, resting your hand over his while your head is on his shoulder. 
Apparently that’s not enough, pulling you onto his lap so he could place his ear over your heart while enjoying being completely engulfed in you.
Tim:
Lips pursed, eyes dull, slouching on the upholster- practically all the signs when he joins you in the living room.
There’s no reaction. No shifting or shuffling leading to him lull his head to the left only to see your attention not on him whatsoever. It’s just a smidge, so minuscule you would’ve HAD to pay attention to notice that he’s sucking on his bottom lip. 
Still nothing from your end though, not even batting an eyelash or peaking at him from the corner of your eye. What does a guy have to do to get his S.O’s attention? 
He turns his head the other direction, propping his chin on the hand resting on the arm rest while the other is placed over his abdomen lifelessly. 
“Haaaahhhhhhhh-“ 
Cue an arm wrapping around his, his head suddenly tucked under yours with a hand supporting the back. 
“Please, Tim. Use words, not action.”
Well, you didn’t need to put it that way. 
Ears burning, he cuddles into your side, his arms around your waist and squeezing you back while finding himself, happily, drowning in the affection you pour into him.
Duke:
He’s just sitting next to you. That’s all. That’s it. Totally not expecting anything despite his leg and arm brushing against yours, moving time-to-time a millimeter closer to you. 
But, Despite everything, what do you do? Nothing. Zilch. You’re so engrossed in the show, it’s obvious that you’re assuming he was simply joining you to have an impromtu “together” time when he’s giving the hints, the nudge and wink. 
It’s not like he can bluntly ask you either. The last thing he wants, needs to appear childish. Teasing? Sure. Petty? That’s just part of human nature. Childish? N. O. 
The cringe. The first-hand and second-hand embarrassment. He can already see his future flashing before his eyes-!
“You know, you don’t need to bounce your leg right next to mine to get my attention.” 
Your head is on his shoulder while you snuggle into his side. The warmth of your hand seeping into his, fingers tangled together, palms touching. 
That’s how he finds himself blushing, trying to hide his face behind the other hand that’s free at the same time as getting what he was wanting from the very start.
Damian:
Dense. Inattentive. Can’t read the air, vibe in the room. 
For the longest time (cough five minutes cough), he’s been waiting for you to turn around and notice him. Realize what he’s demanding. Hell, with his arms crossed, huffing, consistent clicking of his tongue, and scowl it should be obvious by now.
Instead, his scowl deepens as he glances at you and sees you’re invested in the plot when you should be invested elsewhere, in particular in him. But whatever, be that way. 
He repositions himself where he’s leaning onto the arm rest, his gaze fixated on the wall.
“What? No way.” His eyebrow twitches, agitation flaring up at each gasp you make on top of the mumbles related to the story until finally, he reaches his limit.
“Agreed. No way did it take this long for someone to notice that they are wanted despite everything including behavior and action.” 
…That was not what he was planning to say.
It doesn’t comfort him when he feels your head on top of his back and your arms around his torso though he does eventually turn around after getting kissed on his very burning cheek.

Windbreaker Chapter 555 Spoilers! ⚠️
There's a lot mixed vibes going on for this chapter, mostly psychologically regarding Sangho, Mahon, and Jay
Spoiler pics + notes/summary below!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Chapter starts off from the end of chapter 553 where all the other cyclists watching the match realizes Sangho is off his game starting when both him and Jay entered the third part of the race. Jay continues to psychologically attack Sangho as Sangho goes on to even hallucinates Jay as Mahon while recalling all the times he spent with Mahon and how not only was he considered to be the latter's friend but closest partner. Sangho then recalls a memory with Jaeuk as to why he wanted to suppress Jay no matter what when as Jaeuk points out, he could simply ignore Jay and let things be. It's at this time Jay's able to get pass Sangho and cycle ahead of him, showing off his training with Kaneshiro. However, every one points out that though it may seem Jay will win, the chances of Sangho winning is still high since he hasn't reveal his full capabilities. As for Sangho, the guilt continues to eats at him to the point he gets mad for remembering it. The chapter ends as a cliff hanger, not revealing who was the one that won despite both crossing the line.
Side Note: During the conversation between Jaeuk and Sangho, it implies that Jaeuk was wanting Jay to step in and get trapped by his own volition, using him to amp up LOS's popularity and business both to the public and the organization

hi lovely if u dont mind i was wondering where u read ur webnovels? and which ones r u reading or have u read?
Hello! Of course I don't mind sharing ✨✨✨
For webnovels I've been recently reading or re-reading for a few (I'll share names in both krn and their english counterpart):
Lout of the Count's Family (formerly Trash of the Count's Family)/백작가의 망나니가 되었다
Children of the Holy Emperor/성황의 아이들
Got Dropped Into a Ghost Story, But Still Have to Work/괴담에 떨어져도 출근을 해야 하는구나
Lord Baby Runs a Romance Fantasy with Cash/아기님 캐시로 로판 달린다
Return of Mount Hua (a.k.a. Return of the Blossoming Blade officially but that's absolutely incorrect) /화산귀환
As to where I read most of the webnovels I've already gone through are actually the krn webnovel websites, mainly they are:
KakaoPage
Ridi
Return of Mount Hua, that one I'm reading on Naver. But to read a good amount TLed to English, Tapas probably has the most webnovels officially translated and published (though I personally have some issues with how they TL some things). As for fan TLs... I won't venture into that realm as there are a lot of factors to take into consideration and many topics to cover.
Hope this answers your questions :)

Lookism Chapter 562 Spoilers! ⚠️
Despite the lack of action, there's a lot of lore dropped in this chapter regarding the previous Incheon Kings as well as the reveal on who's related to who
Spoiler pics + notes/summary below!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Chapter starts with the old lady's restaurant getting demolished by Dark Society's members as she hides Speed + Daniel. It triggers Daniel and he tries to go out and fight the whole group that got sent only to be held back by Jagyeon. When Daniel's irritation gets pointed to Jagyeon, Yeowool is the one to step up and defend the leader of Speed, logically pointing out if Speed and Daniel were to come out of hiding the old lady would be put in bigger danger and that because the citizens of Incheon has always done their best to hide Speed, Jagyeon had always had to hold back like this (panel showing a very devastated and angered expression on the leader). Speed and Daniel are then seen to be moving through an underground mall, heading to Dark Society's HQ which was located in Incheon's Chinatown. As they go, it's revealed how Incheon was originally a nice city where people who liked cars moved there while Og!speed members protected the people. Dark Society, however, started to invade Incheon at that time to take over the city's port and increase their illegal businesses which included mostly every bad thing that could happen. And as part of their plans to take over Incheon, they were also getting rid of all the original citizens living in the city one way or another. Hence the war that got triggered by an excuse. It's also revealed that the Og!speed's Incheon king had a daughter who's revealed to be none other than Yeowool.
Chapter moves to Speed revealing that they've been waiting to invade Chinatown and take down Dark Society the second Seon Yujae came out which leads to why little Daniel was there fighting. Going back to the current situation (Chapter 560) Jake and Daniel both tell each other that they were able to make an alliance with the kings while the chapter ends with Yujae telling Jake to make his decision who he's going to side with.
side note: it’s also implied the reason Yeowool is wearing the body suit is because it seems that Dark Society knows about her and she’s the daughter of the previous Incheon king.

Spoiling
Summary: when he suddenly gets spoiled by out of the blue
A/N: or when he becomes a devastating victim to DC's horrible writing (iykyk)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dick:
It isn’t expected but whole-heartedly welcomed nonetheless as he chuckles at your administration. 
“Every part of you makes you attractive, you know that? Every part of you is so damn attractive. Well, except for the occasional emotional constipation and being cunning towards everyone close to you.” 
The last part he isn’t sure if that was meant to be an insult though he lets it slide as you continue peppering his face with your lips. 
When you had gone out, he was going to watch T.V. in the living room, making himself comfortable on the sofa. However, almost as if you turned around the second you got there, it wasn’t long at all for you to walk back through the doors, crawl into his lap, and cradle him in between your hands. 
“Aw, if I didn’t know better, I would think someone missed me already.” 
“Don’t get too full of yourself, mister.” He yelps, more out of over exaggeration when you pinch (and lightly in fact which you argue later) his cheek.
Letting out a whine, he turns his head and presses his lip against your hand. 
“But, you still love me.” Giving you the puppy-eyes all while he says that. 
“Yes, every part of you.” 
He grins and pulls you down with him, returning the favor you showed him while listening to your laughter ringing sweetly in his ears.
Jason:
He doesn’t know what’s possessing you, but he’s not complaining.
“You’ve never done a single wrong in your life.” 
“Mhm.”
“You’re not crazy whatsoever.” 
“Right.” 
“Your face is worth more than a billion bars of gold to get punched with a nasty right-hook.”
“O…Kay?” 
Earlier, you said you were going to go to the bookstore to pick up the books you ordered only to come back in less than five minutes, huffing and puffing. He was planning to do some light reading as he waited for you on the couch, not at all expecting himself to get pulled into a hug. Well, just his head anyways, his cheek feeling the fabric of your shirt while your arms wrap themselves around him. 
And as much as he would like to know what exactly had happened to cause you to be like this, he didn’t plan asking anytime soon. He’s currently enjoying all his senses being engulfed in you with the occasional kisses you press into the crown of his head while telling him how you love all of him in every way and will support him unconditionally. 
By the time you're finally done showering him in your affection, he kisses you on the lips and cuddles you for the rest of the day, spoiling you back as his blood runs warm and his heart pounds loudly in his chest from his love for you.
Tim:
He doesn’t know how much more he can handle. Your thumbs drawing circles on his cheeks, your eyes clear and trained solely on his that makes him wonder if you’re peering into his sole. That? All of that isn’t even the worst part.
“I really don’t get it. You’re pretty, you like to skateboard and play DND, you have a social life with a bunch of civilian high school friends including Sebastian Ives, - did I already mention you’re pretty? Like pretty, pretty?” 
Yes? No? How’s he supposed to know when his brain is currently fried? No thought, all the heat and high blood pressure getting to him because his face is too close for comfort to yours. 
Plans to confront you regarding what had happened while you were out flies out the window, mentally noting away the hints you’ve given starting from your abrupt return to you holding him as if he’s the most precious being in the whole world. Not that he dislikes it, he’s more concerned that if he asks you to do it every day,  it’ll cause you to end up getting exhausted and no longer have the energy to continue. 
Reminding himself to check the security cameras later, he lets himself melt and become puddy while letting a happy hum when he catches you now rambling how he’s your pretty. 
“Exclusively yours?” Eyes squinted, lips curled up into a love-drunken smile as he wraps himself around you, snuggling into your warmth.

Ty for answering! 90s Conner, my beloved 🥺💕💕 can I make a request of 90s Conner x male!reader (if you only do gn reader, feel free to change that!) who’s part of the Bat Family? Just the two lazing in bed, with reader trying to get extra work done on his laptop despite promising Conner the day before that he’d take it easy (reader may have also gotten pretty banged up on a mission the night before, too). Can’t be helped. Reader’s a workaholic and needs some convincing to relax. Been craving some soft, affectionate Conner lately. 🥰
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A happy Conner is a Conner who’s with you. But right now, despite having you in his arms and in bed, he’s not happy.
“Babe? Please?” Rubbing circles on your tummy, he rests his head on your shoulder. “Can’t you do it later? Preferably tomorrow?” 
The past few minutes, he was throwing a fuss. Whining, complaining, grumbling, essentially everything a petulant child would do.  
It was supposed to be his day. Cuddle-in-bed-while-watching-movies day. 
He was very much enjoying spending time with you, nuzzling his face into your hair while watching a movie until you expressed the need for snacks and extra pillows. He didn’t want to lose your warmth and scent, but ended up, begrudgingly,  getting up and doing as requested because he was a good boyfriend. only to return to the sight of his spot being stolen and occupied with one hand holding a ridiculously large bowl of popcorn, the other freshly polished pillows. 
It was one thing to express betrayal at his one and only reserved spot getting stolen, it was another to catch you doing what you were explicitly told not to do: working. Batman and the doc, which was his butler who apparently is medically trained like an actual one, ordered you not to and to take things easy considering the minor sprained wrist and nasty gash on your forehead you got from your mission. 
So yes, as he argued and accused you of since the second he came back to the room and caught you in the act, you are going against the doctor's order. 
“I’m pretty sure that doc said you’re supposed to be resting, not working.” He grumbles, lips pushing out when your bandaged fingers continue typing on the keyboard. 
“Well, it’s not me working per-se…” 
Okay, you know what? That does it.
“Sure and Tim sleeps.” 
“Wuh -Conner! Give it back!” 
“Nope.” He dodges your hand, whistling at your quick reflexes from how close you were grabbing it back, and places your laptop on the nightstand by him. “In as much as I find your working side extremely attractive, you’re supposed to be resting. R-E-S-T-ing.”
When you open your mouth, he beats you to it, leaning forward and giving you an Eskimo kiss then a quick peck to the top of your nose for a good measure. 
“Besides, didn’t you promise you’d spend the day with me?” 
“...You think you’re so smooth.”
He chuckles. Despite your words, he can see through you, literally and figuratively, your hands feebly attempting to cover the blushing-mess you’re in while you shuffle back a bit to free up more space on your lap. 
With a victorious grin, he plops his head down and purrs at your fingers gently carding through his hair. He did have to place his hands on top of yours once he starts another movie you happen to like after sensing your hands reach over him to grab a certain object.

tiny FYI: for any rambling regarding how a character's name is spelled or anything related to a series that's TLed, it's most likely because i know and am reading the series in its og language so i'll tend to be nitpicky on certain things on how the context is being presented😅

Windbreaker Chapter 553 Spoilers! ⚠️
In a long while, we finally get more lore regarding the organization and their affiliation with Mahon and Sangho while getting the truth behind Mahon's accident.
Spoiler pics and notes below + a bit of rambling
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The chapter starts with Sangho's memories of Mahon and him where Mahon's teams wins the race but the glory was solely given to Mahon. Sangho is seen standing in the back, venting to Vale/Bale about it and how the rest of the team should also be given credit though Vale, being good natured, tells him how it can't really be helped considering Mahon is their ace. We also get a memory flashback from the early chapters when Mahon and Sangho talked about why they cycle. It's after this memory, it's revealed what truly led to the accident where, after Mahon once again declines a deal with the organization, glasses-man, who's the organization rep, goes to Sangho and offers him a deal where if Sangho takes Mahon down, glasses-man will give him what he always wanted - fame and money. However, after the doping incident, Mahon continued to investigate who caused it that led Sangho to be on the edge and call glasses-man, who's name is revealed to be Jaeuk, on what to do. Later that night, Mahon is taken out by truck that was driven by two of the organization's members and the crash gets set up as suicide. Despite having staged the doping incident, Sangho tells Jaeuk was it truly necessary to take Mahon's life which Jaeuk tells him to simply treat it as the organization taking out trash. The chapter ends with Sangho struggling to not feel guilty as the memories resurfaces during his race against Jay.
Side note: on top of seeing younger Vale/Bale (still biased towards his name starting with a V instead of B), personally I don't feel sorry for Sangho. It makes the whole incident with Mahon to be more tragic considering Sangho didn't actually hesitate to pull down and betray the person who considered the former a close friend. The only thing that separates Sangho and Jaeuk is the moral consciousness where it obviously eats at Sangho's mental state while Jaeuk, with him being part of the organization and all, doesn't have one in the first place.
