Horror Webtoon Recommendations

Here are some of my favorite horror webtoons for those who enjoy this format. Some are already listed on my recs page, while others I’m currently reading. I’ll keep adding more as I discover ones worth checking out. Since I read so many, I might separate this from my horror manga list.

I’m not ranking them, so I’ve arranged them in alphabetical order (this also matches the order of the images at the top - from left to right).

Okay so I did a brief digging into the manhwa works of Taejun Pak, the creator of Lookism. I won't go too deep into it all because these stories all are basically about hyper-violence in one way or another, and that's not something I feel I can enjoy. I don't mind a battle story, but Pak's creations are... a bit too much for me. I said how much I disliked Lookism, his more recent works like My Life as a Loser seem to be a bit better, though still not my cup of tea. Though this is obvious that it is because Pak is still making himself out as a manhwa creator - Lookism was literaly his first creation, and it shows as it bears all the marks of a "first project". His later projects seem more focused, more well-handled, more precise in what they try to do. However, I digress...

What I meant to say is that Pak clearly has a certain interest in exploring the various male body types and indeed, as I thought, almost all of his works contain presentations of fat male bodies to various degrees. (Since this post is VERY long, all under cut)

All was sparked recently due to the main character of "My Life as a Loser 2" being a very muscular guy who turned basically obese since the last time we saw him

I already talked a long time ago about Lookism, which started out and maintained this very bad habit of depicting all the overweight characters as... inhuman, grotesque, half-chibified abominations.

Except for this one side characters, originally the main antagonist, then turned sort of side-kick, then co-protagonist? I don't know, Lookism is very convoluted... but this guy who is drawn like a regular person, and does get an entire arc of him losing weight, and then regaining all back and some more, before returning to his usual size. Logan Lee, that's the name. And apparently from a quick image research he at one point loses the fat and get buff? Okay...

Oh yes and you can count the main character who, as he loses the weight, slowly turns more and more human-looking but... I mean come on, that's typical Korean fatphobia to the max, the guy literaly has to slim down to be human.

Well I would have said "typical Korean fatphobia" if there wasn't all those other detailed, constantly shirtless, and shown as strong fat characters that keep popping up in th artists' other works.

Another one of Pak's famous works is "Questing Supremacy" which also has its share of fat characters (notoriously shown here as hard to fight due to their weight apparently? I am relying on the screenshots I could find)

Though it makes sense since most of these series all take place within the same universe, with recurring background, organizations and characters. One of the fat guys is actually a (tertiary I would say?) antagonist that started in Lookism and then returned in Questing Supremacy. Someone did a compilation of how his frames were reused, and you can see the style evolution between the two works)

Viral Hit (also known as "How to fight") also contains some characters with fat on them (though I don't know much about this series), most notoriously Donseok Ok (referred to as "the fat boxer" by some Internauts)

And this guy everybody is crazy over apparently, Mangi Hwang

There's probably many more but, as I said, I probably won't get too deep into this all because... I just don't have the time to explore entire multiverses of webtoons about gang members and bullies beating up each other - no matter how cool or good-looking the fat guys might look. If anyone has specific info, indications or screenshots they want to share, as usual don't hesitate (I think I should open a "Submit" option on this blog...).

And why do I have the strange feeling that someone Pak hesitated drawing fat men early on but as time passes by he just goes all in and takes a huge kick out of it?

I am thinking especially about "My Life as a Loser 2": the main protagonist, after letting himself go massively, returns to the past (though in a different body) and we get to see back his muscular, fit self... Only for this old body to become just as massive if not more as the "future obese" self for reasons yet unknown and unclear (I will be on the lookout for explanations as to how he could grow that big in just a month). If there's no explanation, it's just that the creator wanted to have this fat design for as much as possible...

when calla and lapis kissed i experienced extreme emotions i haven't felt since pak taejun teased us with a fake out of hobin x taehoon couple channel. I did not expect it to be shappic omg omg omg i never thought it was going to be canon i mean it was obvious but like daniel x jay is hella obvious like they were already acting like a couple but no they're just friends lololololololololololol they're relationship fucked me up. Maybe i'm just shocked because it's a manhwa but tbh we don't see alot of like plot oriented manhwas feature a main queer ship. We need more of that, like make them an official couple or acknowledge their feelings of gayness. Like KDJ and YJH are acting like they married and divorced with teen children be fr.

About The Author

"I like to draw ever since I was a child. When I was 6-7 years old, I liked to copy the comics that my mother gave me. I've taken comic majors but I’ve quit since I couldn't afford it at that time. Subsequently then. I tried many jobs; from doing business online, modeling and staring in variety shows. But my interest in illustrating. rebound when I found Line Webtoon. This digital platform facilitates anyone to take part in and it has a wider medium to draw. Thus, I decided to create this Comic from my Past experiences in school."—Taejun Pak (Indonesian Interview Magazine-2016) [2]

anime: Viral Hit, Season 1 - 12 eps.

I highly recommended this anime show, I laughed my face off from ep 1 to 12, by the end I was cheering for that misfit band of friends and their friendship.

You'll like the face animation / style, by that. The general look for most animes are the common giant eyes, small nose and lips which will alter in size depending on the scene. The drawing on the faces I noticed are drawn well and are somewhat of a human like for an animated show. From my perspective / viewing of this show. I miss these types of face animations. (probably talking crazy, please forgive & ignore)

Definitely looking forward to a season 2 and hope the main lead can pay off the surgery bill for his mother. And strangely enough the pacing of the series episode oddly has the same beats as a korean show. No surprise as its based on a korean web toon by Taejun Pak , Kim Junghyun.

I am wondering if Netflix will pick this up and actually make a live action version of it.

thumbs up, go see it.

The Galaxy Tab S9 : Bringing Your Creative Visions to Life Creators are the engine that drives the digital world we live in today, bringing new concepts and works of art to life through the use of mobile devices. The Galaxy Tab S9 series comes into play here since it was developed to free the mind and encourage the expression of creativity. Find out more about the collaboration between Taejun Pak, a creator of Korean webcomics, and Samsung in order to demonstrate how strong the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra can be. Since their introduction, webcomics have taken the world by storm as an integral part of Korean culture. They provide users of mobile devices a viewing experience that is simple and scrollable, making it ideal for those who enjoy reading comics. The well-known webcomic creator Taejun Pak, whose Webtoon series called LOOKISM was the first Korean webcomics to be turned into an animated series by Netflix, was instrumental in helping to jumpstart the popularity of this type of entertainment all over the world. Because of this, Samsung collaborated with him during the Galaxy Unpacked event that took place in Seoul a month ago in order to showcase all of the capabilities and creative potential that the Galaxy Tab S9 series has to offer. This image credit to google A Blank Canvas on Which to Transpose One's Creative Ideas The Galaxy Tab S9 family of tablets establishes a new benchmark for what a premium tablet should be capable of, from its Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, which provides an immersive viewing experience both inside and outside the home, to its portfolio of fan-favorite apps, which enable creativity and productivity in a way that no other tablet can. Taejun Pak used the S Pen to create a series of cartoons in the style of webtoons in order to demonstrate the capabilities of the Galaxy Tab S9. These illustrations focus on various aspects and functionalities of the tablet. The graphics bring the advantages of the new tablet into animated focus, including the IP68 rating for resistance to water and dust as well as the revolutionary Vision Booster technology that maintains the display's vividness and clarity even when exposed to bright lighting conditions. A Guide for Industry Professionals on the Galaxy Tab S9 series As much as it was developed to maximise work and give an immersive entertainment experience, the Galaxy Tab S9 series was designed to stimulate spontaneous creativity. This was one of the primary design goals. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 provides its customers with the resources they need to explore their passions, regardless of whether they are just starting out as artists, students, or seasoned creatives. Taejun is a professional creator, and he collaborated with Samsung to demonstrate and motivate customers on how to make the most of this instrument. The Pinnacle of Creative Instrumentation in Action During the Galaxy Unpacked event that took place a month ago, Taejun hosted two master workshops that demonstrated how participants could use the Galaxy Tab S9's robust collection of creative tools to make comic book versions of their own selfies. During the master class, attendees received instruction on how to utilise the brand-new S Pen Creator Edition as well as the Clip Studio Paint software, which has a user interface that has been streamlined and is optimised for the Galaxy Tab S9. The session provided a first-hand look at how the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra can make all the difference in bringing creative thoughts to life by providing a step-by-step lesson in turning a selfie into a webcomic character.
