If you’ve been eagerly following the BL manhwa Low Tide in Twilight, you probably noticed that the series recently hit a major milestone with the release of its 100th chapter. 

Needless to say, the BL manhwa been an exciting journey full of emotional twists and turns. But now that chapter 100 is finally out, fans have been wondering when chapters 101, 102, and the rest of the post-100 storylines will be released. 

Chapter 100’s recap

The 100th chapter of Low Tide in Twilight opens with Taeju waking up. As he spots Euihyun, the reality of his actions hits him, prompting him to quickly inject himself with a suppressant, fearing that he might have triggered Euihyun’s heat. When they finally sit down to talk, Taeju learns that Euihyun had secretly drugged his water with an aphrodisiac, hoping it would lead to Taeju impregnating him. Although Euihyun apologizes, Taeju initially reacts with anger, upset that Euihyun would go to such lengths. However, Taejusoon forgives him.

Euihyun then asks Taeju to take him to the sea. Once there, Euihyun confronts Taeju about his decision to quit his gangster life and his plan to leave him. Taeju its that he believes staying together would only bring Euihyun more suffering. In response, Euihyun ionately expresses his deep love for Taeju, explaining that Taeju’s desperate efforts to keep him alive have made him want to live, too. The chapter concludes with the two embracing each other tightly, finding comfort in the cool beach air as they hold on to what they have.

Chapter 102’s release date

There’s a bit of news that might come as a surprise — Low Tide in Twilight has actually come to an end, with chapter 100 as the manhwa’s finale. The story wrapped up at chapter 100, so there won’t be a chapter 101 or 102 to look forward to. While it’s always a little bittersweet when a beloved series comes to a close, the ending provided a satisfying conclusion to the characters’ arcs, and tied up the storyline in a way that feels complete.

For those who have been holding out hope for more chapters, it’s natural to feel a bit disappointed. After all, Low Tide in Twilight has been a significant part of the manhwa scene, especially within the BL subgenre, and many readers have grown attached to the characters and their stories. But if there’s one thing to take away from this, it’s that the series ended on its own , with a full, cohesive narrative that didn’t drag on unnecessarily.

So, while there isn’t a release date for chapter 101 or 102 of Low Tide in Twilight, the good news is that you can always revisit the series from the beginning and relive all the moments that made Low Tide in Twilight such a standout. And who knows? The end of one story could very well open the door for side stories and even new projects from the creator, potentially giving us another manhwa to fall in love with. In the meantime, you can purchase the manhwa’s official perfume, and if you’re still craving more BL content, there are plenty of other ongoing series that are worth checking out. You can catch up on Low Tide in Twilight on Lezhin Comics and Bomtoon.

A recap of chapter 98

In chapter 98 of Low Tide in Twilight, Euihyun struggled with feelings of inadequacy and despair, largely due to the stress caused by Taeju. Despite these challenges, Taeju offered comfort, reassuring Euihyun of his worth. This was crucial for Euihyun, who often doubts whether or not he deserves Taeju’s love. 

Their intense emotions of anger and vulnerability tested their bond, but Taeju’s unwavering helped Euihyun realize he was not alone. Both characters also gained deeper insight into each other’s feelings and burdens. The chapter ended with a tender moment where Euihyun expressed his pent-up emotions, leading to a positive turning point in their relationship.

‘I Adore You Teacher’ GL: Where to read, confirmed https://wegotthiscovered.play1002.com/anime/manga/i-adore-you-teacher-gl-where-to-read-confirmed/ https://wegotthiscovered.play1002.com/anime/manga/i-adore-you-teacher-gl-where-to-read-confirmed/#respond Mon, 19 Aug 2024 10:58:08 +0000 https://wegotthiscovered.play1002.com/?p=1739713 Accessing the manwha is a bit of a challenge... but the pay-off is worth it!]]>

If you’re on the lookout for a new manhwa to dive into, I Adore You, Teacher by Rangrarii might be just what you’re looking for. There’s drama, angst, and the twists and turns of friendship, love, and power dynamics. But there’s a catch: I Adore You, Teacher isn’t the easiest manhwa to find.

Unlike some of the more mainstream manhwas that are widely available, this one is tucked away on a lesser-known platform. So, if you’re wondering where you can read it, you’ve come to the right place.

Where to read I Adore You, Teacher

I Adore You, Teacher is available exclusively on Postype, a Korean-based website that serves as a publishing platform for small content creators. It’s the go-to spot if you’re interested in discovering hidden gems, just like this one. However, navigating Postype can be a bit tricky, especially if you don’t speak Korean. Postype has a variety of content, with some of it available for free, and some behind a paywall. I Adore You, Teacher falls into the latter category. It’s a Postype original manhwa, and there are only six episodes, making it a relatively quick read— if you can unlock them, that is.

How to access manhwas on Postype

First, you’ll need to set up a free on Postype. Once you’ve done that, you’ll need to allow mature content to be shown, as I Adore You, Teacher is categorized under that. The entire site is in Korean, so unless you’re fluent, Google Translate will be your best friend here. As aforementioned, I Adore You, Teacher is locked behind a paywall, requiring you to purchase points to unlock them. The good news? Points are pretty affordable. The smallest bundle you can buy is 1,000 Points, which will cost you about 1,000 Won, or roughly $0.74. 

Even though the site itself is in Korean, the and conditions are available in English, which helps a lot if you’re not familiar with the language. So, while finding I Adore You, Teacher might require a bit more effort than usual, the pay-off is a beautifully crafted manhwa that’s sure to leave a lasting impression.

‘Lost in the Cloud’ chapter 113 release date, confirmed https://wegotthiscovered.play1002.com/anime/manga/lost-in-the-cloud-chapter-113-release-date-confirmed/ https://wegotthiscovered.play1002.com/anime/manga/lost-in-the-cloud-chapter-113-release-date-confirmed/#respond Sat, 17 Aug 2024 20:27:22 +0000 https://wegotthiscovered.play1002.com/?p=1740200 Please, please, please, don't prove Dongsik is right. ]]>

There’s a little burst of adrenaline that courses through our bloodstream every week when a new Lost in the Cloud chapter drops on Lezhin. Unfortunately, it only happens once a week, but a single chapter every few days is enough to scratch the itch.

Last week, chapter 112 reminded us once again that just when we let our guard down and start believing that good and peaceful times are coming, something always gets in the way. The chapter starts with Minwoo completely beside himself after discovering that Candy is undergoing emergency surgery at the veterinary hospital, already setting the tone for the rest of the chapter.

We then get a flashback showing Dongsik and Skylar talking about Cirrus, with Dongsik hoping to prove to Skylar that Cirrus is not who he thinks he is. The chapter ends with an odd and suspicious smile from Skylar, and we need to know what that expression means.

When is chapter 113 of Lost in the Cloud coming out?

The new chapter of Lost in the Cloud will be landing on Lezhin on Friday, August 16. Every five weeks, the manhwa goes on hiatus, but thankfully, there’s no break this week — otherwise, we’d be absolutely boiling. Keep in mind, though, that the South Korean release is a few chapters ahead of Lezhin’s English translation, so be careful to avoid any unofficial fan translations online.

As for what Skylar’s smile might have meant, we have a few theories. First, Skylar knows who Cirrus is at his very core, but he’s facing a dilemma: If Cirrus is indeed the reason why Skylar and Dongsik’s friendship ended, why would he lie? Especially after he was caught deceiving Skylar back in season 1? At this point, we’re all thinking that Cirrus is once again manipulating Skylar, and Skylar likely believes he’s being toyed with again. For our hearts’ sake, I hope this is just a misunderstanding.

Where to read ‘To Whom It No Longer Concerns’ manhwa, confirmed https://wegotthiscovered.play1002.com/anime/manga/where-to-read-to-whom-it-no-longer-concerns-manhwa-confirmed/ https://wegotthiscovered.play1002.com/anime/manga/where-to-read-to-whom-it-no-longer-concerns-manhwa-confirmed/#respond Mon, 12 Aug 2024 14:10:25 +0000 https://wegotthiscovered.play1002.com/?p=1737894 ]]>

There’s a deeply satisfying feeling of accomplishment when you finally find a manhwa that meets all of your criteria. To Whom It No Longer Concerns is giving romance, drama, tension, betrayal, and spice. To quote the Tiktok youths, it is giving… everything we want and more.

The manhwa isn’t very long yet — there are only a few chapters out so far — but it is already showing immense potential. Yo Jeongyeon’s writing is incredibly well-structured, introducing a story filled with family drama and hierarchical complexity. It is paired with Studio LICO’s art, from The Worst Villainess and Marry My Husband, making it quite a bulletproof collab. In fact, we’ve been seeing glimpses of the recent South Korean chapters on TikTok, but if you don’t know Hangul, here’s where you can read To Whom It No Longer Concerns in English.

Where can I read To Whom It No Longer Concerns?

To Whom It No Longer Concerns is available to read for free on the WEBTOON website and app. I know it sounds too good to be true, but WEBTOON is indeed one of the few manhwa and webtoon platforms that are completely free to use — and the best part is that it’s fully legal. There is only one downside, though: it’s a few chapters behind the original South Korean release.

Since the manhwa was only recently picked up by WEBTOON — originally serialized in Korea by NAVER — the original story is currently a few chapters ahead of the English translation. This means that if you browse X or TikTok often, you might stumble upon a few spoilers unintentionally. At this point, the story is about eight chapters ahead of the English translation, so keep that in mind if you decide to search for any To Whom It No Longer Concerns content online.

Are avid fans of Low Tide in Twilight some of the strongest soldiers out there? Possibly, especially since there’s usually one delay or the other that pushes back release dates. Looking forward to the next chapter can be classified as an extreme sport, as the writers often declare sudden breaks every now and then.

Thankfully, this time, chapter 96 of the BL manhwa is almost here, arriving just one week after the last chapter which left us a bit worried.

Recapping chapter 95

All the tension came to a high in chapter 94 of the manwha, when Taeju was stabbed. Luckily enough, Euihyun stepped up to protect and care for him, even though the future remained uncertain. Chapter 95 of Low Tide in Twilight was also not for the weak, as it’s become pretty obvious that the two leads are definitely not in a good place. After the stabbing, Euihyun’s concerns showed a softer side to him, but while Taeju’s on the road to physical recovery, it’s up in the air if he will recover mentally.

When to expect chapter 96 of Low Tide in Twilight

Chapter 96 of Low Tide in Twilight will arrive on Friday, Aug. 9. However, as with each release, the time depends on your location. Here’s the breakdown of when chapter 96 will hit your region:

  • Korean Standard Time (KST) – Aug. 9, 12:00 AM
  • Pacific Time (PT) – Aug. 9, 8:00 AM

The Male Lead’s Little Lion Daughter is a charming, humorous manhwa that’s been going strong for over 90 chapters, with chapter 98 recently released. As the enchanting storyline and lovable characters near the centennial chapter, here’s what we know about the latest release.

Chapter 97’s recap

In the previous chapter, Leo was upset that the newspaper didn’t mention her or the previous night’s incident. She asked the Duke if she could negotiate with the emperor, and he agreed, having already addressed the issue at the palace. Leo felt frustrated that covering up her mess overshadowed the failed illegal monster trade, which could have significantly impacted the emperor. 

However, the Duke reassured her that the monster issue wasn’t as critical as she thought, as it was just an attempt at an illegal auction that concluded quietly. Furthermore, he explained that problems become messy once exposed, like a spilled milk bottle. Understanding her father’s love and the emperor’s exploitation of it, Leo was then tasked by the Duke to write three pages on how the emperor would trouble Voreoti.

After winning the hearts of many fans globally, Lost in the Cloud, the South Korean comic romance manhwa has continued to amp up the heartfelt moments. Written and illustrated by Paskim, the manhwa is now in its 110th chapter, and still going strong. Lost in the Cloud follows a high schooler named Yeon Skylar, who fantasizes about his crush, Seong Chan-li, and secretly takes numerous photographs of him. However, when Cirrus discovers his secret hobby, Skylar’s world takes a much more interesting turn. The thrilling, BL story is released in a seasonal structure of new chapters weekly, and chapter 110 packs a punch.

Is chapter 110 of Lost in the Cloud out?

It is an unarguable fact that the creator Paskim has been performing exceptionally well with keeping a consistent weekly release schedule every Friday, over the past few months. As such, chapter 110 of Lost in the Cloud landed on Friday, July 19, 2024

Boasting various translations of the Lost in the Cloud manhwa, including English, Lezhin Comics remains the best place to read this romance story. New chapters are released on the platform regularly, but subscribers can read only one chapter per week for free. However, with just $4, subscribers can enjoy more chapters of the manhwa. Another way to read more chapters for free is to get more coins, by playing minigames online. Coins in this context are referred to as the platform’s local currency. 

Lost in the Cloud is currently expected to run for three seasons/ At this time, fans of the manhwa are uncertain as to whether there will be an extension of the season, especially since this is the third, and supposedly final season.

Not many manhwa have official merchandise available in stores, but those that do have solidified their status as the royalty of BL manhwa. Unsurprisingly, the story that recently ed this elite group is none other than Low Tide in Twilight.

As one of Lezhin’s most successful stories, it’s no wonder Low Tide in Twilight would eventually get its own merchandise. An omegaverse filled with angst and paired with stunning art by the beloved Euja was the perfect recipe for an emotional rollercoaster and chart-topping success. Since December, TikTok videos have surfaced showing that an official Taeju perfume has been released. However, it is ittedly hard to find. But we’ve got you covered — as always.

Where can I buy the Low Tide in Twilight perfume?

You can purchase the Low Tide in Twilight perfume on Koonbook and Harumio — but only if it’s not already sold out. For some time now, the perfume has been in high demand, and both websites have frequently had it out of stock. The price varies depending on the website: Koonbook was selling the perfume for $72 for 30ml, while Harumio had it for a relatively cheaper $40 for the same amount of liquid. Both websites offer worldwide shipping, which is a bonus.

Alternatively, the online store Nemo It Store also stocked the 30ml perfume for a while before it sold out. However, it was the most expensive of the three, priced at $85. On top of that, we can’t assure you that the smell or its endurance will be worth your money. In the packaging, it appears that there is no information regarding the intensity or concentration of smells. Namely, we don’t know if it’s an eau de parfum, or an eau de toilette.

Nonetheless, the perfume is currently sold out on all these websites, likely due to a manufacturing shortage. Perhaps no one was prepared for the success a BL perfume would bring, but TikTok is a miracle worker. Unsurprisingly if it goes viral on TikTok, it is almost guaranteed that it will be sold out by the time we get there.

In fact, many merch perfumes are selling out quickly — not just Low Tide in Twilight’s. Manhwa merchandise is becoming the next must-have item, unsurprisingly. I the days when we used to see just a handful of Painter of the Night pins and cards with only three manhwa with physical copies of their work. Nowadays, we even have perfumes from Jinx, Under the Greenlight, Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint, and many other BL stories.

Hopefully, the manufacturers will soon respond to the high demand. Recently, many popular manhwa have been releasing character-inspired scents, which is not only a genius merchandising strategy, but also a great way for readers to feel even more connected to the characters they follow week after week. Yay for parasocial relationships with fictional men!

The ever-popular Low Tide in Twilight has its fair share of super fans. The first chapter released in 2021 and we’re now on chapter 93, and if you’ve been keeping up to date then you may well consider yourself a superfan of the BL manhwa.

But were you aware that there is Low Tide in Twilight merch? In fact, one of the most popular items that has fans frothing at the mouth is the custom perfume relating to the manhwa.

If you’ve ever wondered what the two protagonists, Euihyun and Taeju smelled like, now is your chance to find out as there are currently two perfumes available from online retailers such as Koonbooks. The scents are based on the two characters with Euihyun being given a “fresh floral musk” according to the description that comes with the perfume. On the other hand, Taeju’s odor is described as “citrus aquatic fresh green floral.” Are those the kind of scents you imagined coming from Euihyun and Taeju?

The price

Overall, they’re pretty pricey, costing $72.00 per bottle, so if you want both scents, that’ll be $144.00. However, you’ll have to factor in shipping costs on top of that as the products are coming from Korea. However, they are certainly fine little pieces of memorabilia for the manhwa, coming in a fancy little box, and the perfume bottle even comes with pictures of the characters.

Of course, if you were hoping to get your hands on either of these scents any time soon, you might find yourself disappointed, as they are currently out of stock with no clear indication when they will be available again. It just proves how popular this merch is – for now though, we can only hope that the supply is restocked again soon.

If you’re here, the “BL” and “yaoi” have probably shown up on your radar once or twice. To be fair, the Internet does come up with the weirdest sayings and acronyms, but these have been around for far longer than you might have noticed.

Much like everything that goes even remotely semi-viral on the Internet, these have also ended up on TikTok — for better and for worse. You’ve probably seen these associated with anime, manga, or even Thai and K-dramas — the most popular mediums for what is known as “BL.” Now, yaoi, however, is an entirely different story, so let’s quickly dive into what these mean and their differences.

What does ‘BL’ mean?

Korean BL Drama "Our Dating Sim"
via Viki

The acronym “BL” stands for Boys’ Love and is the umbrella term used for content revolving around two male love interests. The earliest use of the acronym can be dated to 1991 when the magazine Image attempted to collect these disparate genres under a single term. From then on, several other magazines began using the term in reference to male-male romance in Japanese and Asian media. Nowadays, though, we can also see the genre is growing in the West, although BL isn’t often used to describe this type of content.

In fact, you’ve surely seen plenty of BL content exploding in recent years here in the West. For instance, series like Heartstopper or Young Royals easily fit under the BL umbrella term, as shows whose main plot surrounds a queer couple comprised of two male characters. More often than not, these series focus on romance, though that’s not exclusively the standard.

BL is still mostly attached to dramas hailing from Thailand, China, Taiwan, and South Korea. These East Asian countries are some of the biggest producers of LGBT content in Asia, with entire companies dedicated to creating these dramas. You might have even heard of the titles KinnPorsche or TharnType, which are two of the most popular BL Thai dramas. When it comes to Japanese and South Korean manga and manhwa, however, the story is a little different.

What is Yaoi and is it different from BL?

Yaoi is an outdated term that was used to refer to explicit content between two male lovers in Japanese manga. However, it is now widely deemed derogatory and has slowly but surely been replaced by BL as the umbrella term for both Yaoi and Shounen-ai. It was initially considered a subgenre of the literary shojo genre, although Shounen-ai and Yaoi stemmed from contemporary Japanese homoerotic romances created in the 1970s. Still, these exact wouldn’t be used until later on.

It was, in fact, doujinshi — self-published works often focused on already-existing characters in relationships — that propelled the yaoi and shounen-ai into popular use. Doujinshi creators, often fans of mainstream manga and anime, would create their own stories featuring characters from those works in romantic or erotic scenarios. These fan-created stories contributed to the early development of queer genres, with creators ironically referring to their explicit works as “yaoi” (from “YAma nashi, Ochi nashi, Imi nashi” — no climax, no point, no meaning) and less explicit works as “shounen-ai.”

Even though you might see fans often use all three interchangeably, they are all very different, and you’ll likely be safer using “BL,” as a general term. More often than not, both “shounen-ai,” and “yaoi,” are used in Japanese manga after all, and not necessarily for BL dramas — which are, arguably, its most successful medium currently.

‘Low Tide In Twilight’ chapter 93 release date, confirmed https://wegotthiscovered.play1002.com/anime/manga/low-tide-in-twilight-chapter-93-release-date-confirmed/ https://wegotthiscovered.play1002.com/anime/manga/low-tide-in-twilight-chapter-93-release-date-confirmed/#respond Wed, 10 Jul 2024 11:49:15 +0000 https://wegotthiscovered.play1002.com/?p=1721357 We're getting regular chapter releases once more!]]>

In case you missed it, the popular manhwa, Low Tide in Twilight, has returned from its long hiatus and is being published weekly again.

The story follows Euihyun, a young man who is stopped from committing a murder-suicide by Taeju. Their relationship becomes pretty complicated from there, which is why we have 93 chapters and counting. Anyway, we’ve already had a couple of new chapters since the long break with chapter 91 marking a return to regular scheduling. But when exactly do new chapters release, and more importantly, when can we expect chapter 93 to drop?

Low Tide in Twilight chapter 93 release date

The latest part of the story is expected to be available for fans to read on July 13. If you want to know the specific times as well we’ve got you covered, the new chapter will be available to read at the following times:

  • Pacific Time: 8:00 AM 
  • Eastern Time: 11:00 AM 
  • Central European Time: 5:00 PM

As with previous chapters it will be available in the usual places, Bomtoon for Korean readers (along with French and Thai translations) and Lezhin comics for English readers. Both services require a subscription to read past the first chapter however.

What can we expect in chapter 93?

With the dramatic confrontation between Taeju and the kidnappers in the last chapter, we can expect Taeju and Euihyun to be reunited. However, where things go from there is anyone’s guess, we’ll just have to wait until the next part releases to find out where the story goes next.
