Since childhood, Henry had dreamed of acting. He fought against every obstacle to carve a path in Hollywood, and at 27, he finally achieved the recognition he had always longed for: an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor. But fate had a tragic twist in store. His life came to an abrupt end in a plane crash. Yet his story did not end there. By a twist of destiny, Henry is reborn in the body of a young man named Owen, in the very same year of his death, 2022. He soon discovers that this world, nearly identical to his own, lacks the movies, series, and books that shaped his previous life. With a flawless memory that allows him to recall every detail of those works, Owen decides to seize this second chance, to bring those stories to the world and become the greatest star this new Hollywood has ever known.

This is the Quadrant Realm, a world where humans live alongside Mecha humans. Racing is the meaning of life, and the title of racer is the most prestigious honor of all. Racers fight side by side with their Mecha partners, striving toward the pinnacle of the world. For Jawed, once the number one motor rider in the world, being transmigrated into this world should have been a dream come true. Yet, having witnessed the filthy, corrupt sides of the racing industry, in this life he wants nothing more than to live an ordinary life, completely detached from the world of motors. Yet once he leaves the track behind, his life seems to lose all meaning. Everything fades into a dull gray, monotonous and hopeless. Just when it seems he would wither away in those empty days, on one heavy rainy night, he accidentally encounters a beautiful girl huddled in a narrow alleyway. Her eyes vacant, her body frail, her clothes torn and worn. She has no memories, no recollection of who she is. She only remembers that she is a Mecha human, and that deep within her heart burns an overwhelming desire: to lead her rider to become the world champion, and to become the greatest Mecha human of all. That seemingly chance encounter completely changes Jawed’s life. A new journey begins, a journey for a former champion to rediscover the joy of the racetrack, a journey of self-discovery for a Mecha girl, and a road toward conquering the world championship. The champion racer and the No.1 Mecha girl will crush all rivals!

Every seventeen years, the cicadas emerge from the earth. They sing. They die. They are forgotten until the next cycle begins. In 1978, sixteen-year-old Yuki Takahashi disappeared during the emergence. Her friend Shinji left early. He has spent seventeen years believing his departure caused her death. In 1995, the cicadas return. So does Shinji, now a journalist, drawn by a letter from someone who knows what he did—and what he failed to do. The sender is Rin Takahashi, Yuki's younger sister, who was seven years old the night her sister vanished. She held the flashlight while her father bound Yuki's wrists. She has spent twenty-five years preparing for this emergence. Together, they will uncover a network of protected crimes, preserved rooms, and silences that outlast memory. But exposure demands its own price. The truth does not set you free. It only makes the silence different—not empty, but full of what was spoken. No supernatural powers. No fantasy. Only the horror of what humans hide, and what emerges when the cycle completes.

In a world where monsters lurk in the shadows of modern cities, humanity is protected by Hunters—elite warriors who secretly fight creatures known as Cryptids. Among them is MUSE, a team of famous idols adored by millions. To the public, they are dazzling performers. But behind the stage lights, they battle horrors that would drive ordinary people insane. One night, during a routine hunt gone wrong, they encounter someone who shouldn't exist in their world—a calm, silver-eyed man who analyzes their battle like a critic watching a performance. While others would panic, he evaluates. While others would run, he gives instructions. And somehow… he's always right.

• 1-2 New Chapters Every Day Han Yoo-jin never stood out. He worked long hours at a Korean entertainment company, doing what he was told, blending into the crowd. That was his life—ordinary, predictable, and a little empty. Then one night, he met Jung Sae-ri, a young actress who seemed to shine brighter than anyone else in the room.

Because in a world built on fame and lies, staying true might be the hardest thing of all.

The Absolved is far too powerful to be killed in the present. So they'll kill him in the past. ... Han Syracusia, a struggling student and a secret survivor of the Empire's Camps for his blasphemous race, wants nothing more than to see his little sister's condition treated and their future secured. And if he could ask for a little more, just a little, then for the disgusting beasts who saw to the death of his father and the torment of his family to be held accountable. Heaven, after all, had already been unkind to him. But things couldn't possibly get any worse, right? Right? Well, that was until a certain powerful Heavenly Graced noble intruded into his shabby apartment one night and tried to kill him for crimes he was utterly oblivious to. Outrageous crimes! "Slaughtering a family?!" Who was he to commit such atrocities? And then... more. More mysterious and powerful enemies began appearing in his life, accusing him, hunting him, trying so viciously to take his life. To gnaw away the little peace he and his sister still had. But fine. If Heaven really wished to torment him this way, if he really had no choice in the matter, then why shouldn't he become what they all accuse him of being? Why should his sister continue living this way? Han Syracusia, in his quest to secure both his sister's life and his own, may have to become exactly who they believe him to be after all.

The night the sky shattered, humanity nearly vanished. Alien warships descended without warning, reducing cities to ash and silencing entire continents within days. Their weapons were beyond anything Earth had ever seen — precise, merciless, unstoppable. But humanity refused to surrender. From underground laboratories and hidden military bunkers, scientists and engineers worked without rest. Reverse-engineered fragments of alien technology became the foundation of a new era of warfare. Experimental energy weapons, adaptive combat armor, neural targeting systems — humanity evolved in the face of extinction. From this desperate resistance, three elite strike divisions were born: Night Reaper, Iron Vortex, and Black Horizon. They are not ordinary soldiers. They are the result of years of brutal training and technological enhancement. Their mission is clear: Advance toward the alien hive. Infiltrate its core. Destroy it from within. The hive is not just a structure — it is alive. It learns. It adapts. It anticipates human strategy before it unfolds. What began as survival has become a final gamble for the planet. In a war where one sound can summon death and one mistake can erase a squad, these soldiers move forward without hesitation — and without words. Humanity created weapons to fight back. Now it must prove it deserves to survive.
