Itaewon Class
By Kwang jin
The original series the hit drama is based on!
Itaewon is a hotspot of freedom and cutting-edge trends like no other place in Korea. But even within this melting pot of colorful lives, few have a story like Saeroyi Park’s! He runs a bar with an unlikely crew of misfits as diverse as the neighborhood it’s in. His goal—grow it into a franchise big enough to take on Jangga Group, a titan in the dining industry owned by the ruthless Jang family, who killed his father. They come at Saeroyi with every dirty trick in the book, but he’s about to teach them—money can buy power and status, but not real class!
Itaewon Class is a dramatic slice-of-life manhwa that deals with bullying, revenge, and familial relationships. This completed series has received over 446 thousand views and 30 thousand likes on Tapas. Itaewon Class also received a live-action Korean drama adaptation that became one of the highest-rated dramas in Korean cable TV history and can be streamed on Netflix.
The Uncanny Counter
By Jang E
The word is that the noodle shop on the corner serves broth that’s out of this world. But little do they know… it’s actually run by people from the afterlife! To be more precise, the restaurant is a front for individuals called Counters who have formed contracts with souls from the hereafter. They were given special powers for their job—hunting down renegade souls who have escaped into Earth to prey on the living. When So Mun, a highschooler disabled by a tragic car accident, is invited into the group, he hesitates…until he’s offered a chance to meet his deceased parents as a reward. Can he complete the mission and tell them the words he never got to say?
The Uncanny Counter is a popular supernatural manhwa full of action, thrills, and mystery. The webcomic has received over 844 thousand views and 51 thousand likes on Tapas.
