Ryu Cheong-Hyeon has a name engraved on his skin that is identical to Baek Han-Yeong, however, Baek is a 'no-namer', and such a possibility is entirely rare. Baek goes on the quest to find out if there is someone with the same exact name as him, along with the same birthdate timeframe. This ends up being difficult. In the end, Baek just decides on stripping in front of Ryu to prove that he is a  no-namer. Chapter 7 - stripping. Secretly, during the stripping, Ryu finds out that Baek, indeed, has a name  engraved into his skin. The name placement is in a difficult area, on the upper left thigh underneath the ass.  What's happening currently: Baek found another Baek, a woman, and set her up with Ryu. But this makes Baek conflicted, now starting to get feelings for Ryu and is wondering why he even did this in the first place, especially since now they aren't as close as before. Under the guise of asking how their relationship is going, Baek goes to Ryu, and finds out that they didn't start a relationship yet and they're talking. Baek feels troubled and bothered by this notion. Baek ends up texting the girl-Baek to ask for more details on her and Ryu's relationship. But something weird is going on. They meet up in a cafe with another man, who said that this was all a trick for Ryu because they were curious why he was so interested in his soulmate and Baek in general because he never acts like this (car rides, going over to people's houses) with anyone else, except a girlfriend in high school. So, it seems like Baek and Ryu are the true soulmates. Ch. 27 ends off with Baek going to Ryu's house unexpectedly. Tropes: - Introverted x Extroverted - Virgin x Experienced

Hwang Young's Misery

Ongoing | Yeaze | 2022 released

Manhwa notes: Kim Hyunjae → Sheldon (webtoon alias); Choi Hwanyoung ('fictional character') Yoo Jaehyuk; Do-hyuk ('fictional character') One day, while Sheldon is drinking alone at the bar, he is approached by a black-haired man who looks extremely similar to one of the characters in his story.  They talk for a bit at the bar, have sex, and  Sheldon wakes up to an extremely painful broken leg; he wakes up in a bedroom that looks very similar to his own.  The black-haired man is named Park Do-hyuk, and he thinks that he is a character in Sheldon's story and wants Sheldon to change the ending to make it favourable for both of them.  Sheldon, in his own story, would 'play' his own character, Choi Hwanyoung, in the situation. He tries his best to escape Do-hyuk, or just find out why this is going on. Later in the story, it is revealed that 'Do-hyuk' is a craft artist who is accurately named 'Yoo Jaehyuk'. - Do-hyuk is manipulating Sheldon, saying that nobody is going to find him, and that he's the only one he'll need. It's a dependency situation - In the actual story, Do-hyuk is considerate to Hwanyoung, his character is meticulous. - There is a constant hammering sound in the background. Do-hyuk also carries a hammer. - Sheldon believes that if he creates a favourable ending to the story, Do-hyuk will let him go. He wonders if making an ending to the story that Do-hyuk wants will allow him to get released, but Do-hyuk  says that he will not interfere with any creation of the story, and that Sheldon should write it himself. Essentially, Do-hyuk is confining Sheldon so he can alter the storys' conclusion, but does not want to tamper with the process of how the story itself is made. - The storys' true ending would be one where Hwanyoung returns to a reality where An-on is waiting for him - Chapter 13 - The red/brown-haired man with the black undercut (Ju An-on) seems to be Hwanyoung's second love interest. In real life, the connection of that man with Sheldon, named Kang Wonil, seems to be a close person with Sheldon, maybe having one-night-stands together. - ???: Wonil and Sheldon met each other at school, Sheldon is a little bit older than Wonil. They go drinking one day and have sex. Then they become boyfriends, then after a while their connection to one another had turned ambiguous. - Sheldon sees parallels between Wonil and Do-hyuk. - Chapter 33, 42: Jaehyuk backstory
