Colin And Penelope Actors Dating

When down-on-her-luck café barista Yuna Han accidentally spills an iced Americano on a disguised K-pop idol, she has no idea her life is about to become a viral headline. The idol? None other than J-Min, the infamously cold (and unfairly hot) member of global sensation boy group HWAON. To avoid a scandal during a sensitive comeback, J-Min's agency offers Yuna a ridiculous deal: pretend to be his girlfriend for a month to distract fans and media. In exchange, her student debt is wiped and her struggling café gets a major PR boost. There's just one problem: Yuna can't stand arrogant celebrities. And J-Min has zero interest in dating...until he starts falling for the only girl who treats him like a regular human. Copyright-Cristina 2025 All rights reserved.

[WSA Entry 2025] [Additional tag: GL, Yuri, Only Wholesome romance, Harem, Slow romance, Academy, Fluff, Lighthearted, Overpowered Protagonist and Love Interest, No Male Lead, Hidden Protagonist, Late Smut ] [Update Daily: 2 Chapters] Seven Witches. Seven Sins. Mel Sakura had transmigrated into the World of Witchhunter's Howl, a gacha game she used to play, reborn as the Witch of Lust, fifteen years before the apocalyptic timeline. Upon waking up, the System (who had kidnapped her in the first place) offered her a choice: Return to her original World, or stay and prevent the six Witches’ tragedies that led to the Witches’ Uprising. “Oh? Then can I go home now?” [ ...of course. I’m sorry for everything. Please stand still as I prepare the ritual. ] “Hehe. I’m just kidding.” The Witch of Lust grinned, her cheeks tinged with red. “Why so eager to send me back? Don’t ruin my only chance for graduating from my Virginity, would you?” So, with a full-blown Harem Plan in mind, a decade had passed since she finally resolved the Witch of Envy’s tragedy. And suddenly, the Witch of Pride broke through the Saintess’s Seal for a moment just to call the System a liar. She should have really, really heeded that warning from the start. Or at least be more prepared for when the System finally revealed herself, and trapped her after she’d seduced them all… “Um...Partner? Don’t you think you can let me out of the basement already?” “Too late, Mel... Don’t worry. I will make you feel so good you’ll forget why you ever tried to save them.” “Hic... just don’t shred my panty like last time...” This is a fluffy, lighthearted fairy tale where everything finally aligned. The Witches. The Happy Ending. The welcomed Witches Uprising. And a System that finally had its wish granted: A simple date in the Capital. With her. ————— Note: In short, want Date a Live but Yuri + Witches + LOTS of fluffs + Overpowered Scheming Protagonist? You have come to the right place!

Now trapped inside a fantasy academy where magic is real and danger lurks behind every class schedule, The academy around him gleams with power, secrets, and danger, and the people he meets—familiar yet unknown—seem to be playing roles far beyond what he remembers. Lee Hoyeon must survive and fulfill the terms of a cruel divine bet. What began as a joke has become a test of survival. And in this world, desire, power, and choice intertwine in ways that defy logic. The real game has begun—and there’s no save button.

But dating someone who’s not only her brother’s closest friend, but also her new boss and the school’s most eligible bachelor? This sweet, forbidden romance is already walking a tightrope.

Sie wurde von ihrem Ehemann und seiner Geliebten gezwungen, ins Meer zu springen und Selbstmord zu begehen, nur um gerettet und sieben Jahre lang von dem Onkel des Mistkerls gepflegt zu werden. Er war ihr Unterstützer geworden und beschützte sie akribisch. Sieben Jahre lang wagte es niemand, auf sie herabzusehen. Ihr Ruf war beschädigt. Sie hatte eine Fehlgeburt und war geschieden. Der miese Ex-Ehemann war auch sein Neffe. Andererseits würde er niemanden außer ihr heiraten. Er kümmerte sich nicht um Gerüchte und barbarische Worte, und dafür zögerte er nicht, sich gegen den gesamten Clan zu stellen. ... Anfangs dachte sie, das Tragischste im Leben sei es, sich in den falschen Menschen zu verlieben. Später erkannte sie, dass es das nicht war. Es stellte sich heraus, dass das Tragischste war, dass man endlich die wahre Liebe fand, aber zu diesem Zeitpunkt von Wunden bedeckt war. Sie war kalt wie Eis und er war leidenschaftlich wie Feuer. Sie hatte sieben Jahre durchgehalten, und er auch. Am Ende verlor sie doch gegen diese beharrliche Flamme und willigte ein, ihn zu heiraten. Doch in der Nacht bevor sie zum Standesamt gehen wollten, um ihre Heiratsurkunde zu bekommen, wachte sie auf und kehrte zehn Jahre zurück. In jenem Jahr war sie in der Blüte ihrer Jugend. Sie war noch immer so schön wie eh und je, und ihre Jugend war nicht verschwendet. In jenem Jahr war er gutaussehend und vielversprechend. Sie betrachtete sich im Spiegel und weinte still. "Onkel, diesmal werde ich dir das Beste geben."

Before his gruesome death, Gene Conti was one of the greatest icons of the 1960s. But after spending half a century in Hell, only gambling and the suffering of others excite him. Fortunately for him, his days of boredom are over. Having served his sentence, he finds himself in the body of a young man in the modern era. Now freed, Gene wishes to continue what he missed the most as a dead man: acting. Once again, he aspires to be an actor admired the world over. But will the angels and demons leave him alone?

Tricked by a soothsaying mother, during the ghost year, ghost month, ghost day, and the wide-open Ghost Gate, I sneaked into the deep mountains with a Zhang Family heirloom, the Star Stealing Life-changing Talisman. By a mix-up of Yin and Yang, a devastatingly beautiful thousand-year-old female corpse absorbed some of my life force, and she awakened... Kids over 12, please watch this book together with the little buddy on your back, and don't block his view! (Note: don't turn back now, because he has also seen this text!)

~My Lovely Harem School Life~ Just like the cringy name suggests, it's a well-known dating sim that gained popularity due to the beautiful heroines, fun story, and most importantly, the significance of the player's choices that influence the endings. ...But why did I end up transmigrating into the scummiest character in the game, Yagami Reiji, the heir to the biggest Yakuza group in the country? The trash that harassed the main cast, the trash that bullied the students, and the trash that ultimately 'steals' the heroines if the player makes the wrong decisions. Why, God, Why!? Will my predecessor's past, a horrific mess, haunt me? Will my father, the King of the Underworld, accept me? Will the characters, now a reality, still hate me? I decided to live a regular life, slowly taking the steps to whitewash my reputation..... With an occasional punch thrown here and there. .....Wait, why is the original protagonist a complete idiot?

Dear Reader, My name is Lola, and this isn’t just a book about dating. It’s about living. Yes, there are dates. Hundreds, actually. Some real. Some exaggerated for comedic relief (because trauma is exhausting and humor is free). But behind every swipe, every dinner, every wild story, there’s a woman surviving. A woman unraveling. A woman rebuilding. This is about me, my life, my heartbreaks, my hilarity, my healing. The messy, sacred chaos of it all. You’ll meet exes (some I married, some I should’ve blocked), friends who became family, and red flags I mistook for carnival rides. You’ll also find the truth I spent years avoiding— about love, motherhood, neurodivergence, faith, fear, and finally choosing myself. This isn’t a self-help book, but if it helps, I’m glad. It’s not an advice column, but if it feels like one sometimes, that’s okay too. Think of it more like a long, unfiltered letter from a big sister who’s been through it and wants to make you laugh, cry, and maybe pack a spare car seat... just in case. So settle in. You’re not alone. I’ve got stories to tell. With love, Lola

They whisper my name in fear. Justin Black. The guy who sits in the back of the class, always in black, always untouchable. The one everyone watches but no one dares to approach. They don’t know me. Not really. Because if they did, they’d stay the hell away. I don’t do friends. I don’t do relationships. I don’t do attachments. But then there’s her. June Matthews—cheer captain, golden girl, a walking distraction. She’s everything I hate… and yet, she’s in my way. Assigned to me. Forced into my space. Testing my patience. She thinks she can handle me. She’s dead wrong. Because I have a secret. A place where I go to release the darkness inside me. Where names don’t exist, where pleasure and pain are one and the same. A world where people fulfill their deepest, most twisted fantasies. June doesn’t belong in my world. But the longer she stays, the more I want to pull her under. And once I do… I’m not sure I’ll ever let her go.

"Block him." "He's technically still my boss." "Then block him with dignity." The call ended again. And then started again. I let out a sound somewhere between a growl and a sob, then finally answered with the enthusiasm of a snail crawling through salt. "Yes, Mr. Walton?" "Have you changed your mind yet?" I collapsed onto the towel and gazed at the sky as though it might consume me entirely if I pleaded sweetly enough. "Do you ever take a break?" I asked, shielding my eyes with one hand. "You're avoiding the question." "Because it's a dumb question." He exhaled, the sound sharp and irritated even over phone. "It's not a dumb question. It's a business offer." "It's a weird offer-one that I already said no to." There was a brief pause, and I could practically hear him clenching his jaw through the speaker. "You are acting unreasonably." " Unreasonable?" I sat up. "I'm not the one drafting fake girlfriend contracts like it's a normal Tuesday." "Isabella-" "Certainly not, Mr. Walton." I mimicked his tone perfectly. "I told you I'm not doing it. You need to find someone else to play pretend with." SYNOPSIS Isabella Miller thought saying no to her boss’s fake dating offer was the end of the story. But Adrien Walton doesn’t take no—especially not when he’s convinced she’s a gold digger. Suddenly, her student loans are piling up, her father’s vet clinic is on the brink of eviction and her brother is about to be kicked out of college. Coincidence? She thinks not. Adrien Walton is calm, calculating—and he's just pulled every string to corner Isabella into the perfect position. Now she’s stuck choosing between pride and survival. So she agrees to his offer: be his fake girlfriend. No feelings attached. No drama. Just business. Or so she thought. "Conference Room B. Fifteen minutes," he said, passing by without a glance. The folder he pushed across the table landed with a thud. I opened it. The contract. All of it. --- Enemies to lovers? Check. Slow burn? Hmmnyea. Banter so sharp it might file your nails? Yes. Delicious workplace tension? Of course. Tension that could melt steel?Absolutely. Smut?? Wanna find out? Welcome to corporate romance warfare. There’s no escaping this contract.

Penelope is reincarnated into a book she read as a kid — as Penelope Ashdown. The first thing she sees when she wakes up? A judge. An audience. Turns out, she’s on trial for the long list of crimes Ashdown had committed. And regardless of the verdict, she's scheduled to die in a week on her way to prison. Being a doctor in her past life doesn't help. Belonging to a powerful noble house doesn't help. Being rumored to have magical powers definitely doesn't help. Her only shot at survival? Vicious wit and a lucky encounter with a nobleman so beloved by society, they’ve never bothered to check what he really is.

Palagi siyang masunurin at maamo sa loob ng tatlong taon ng kanilang lihim na kasal, pinapanood habang pinalilibutan niya ang sarili ng mga babae at nalubog sa walang katapusang mga iskandalo. Sa araw na bumalik sa bansa ang paksa ng kanyang hindi nasukliang pag-ibig, tahimik niyang iniabot sa kanya ang kasunduan ng diborsyo. "Ano, may gusto ka bang iba?" tanong niya nang malamig.

Kartikey, an ordinary Indian man working a quiet IT job in Seoul, never asked for much — a steady paycheck, some instant ramen, and maybe a call from home now and then. Romance? Not on his radar. Especially not in a city where he’s more invisible than foreign. That is, until a blind date app matches him with Nancy — a woman who radiates elegance, mystery, and the kind of confidence that could shatter egos. What Kartikey doesn’t know? Nancy is the CEO and president of LUXENOVA, one of the world’s most powerful AI tech empires. She has secrets. He has no clue. And the world she lives in? It’s not one you enter casually. But something about Kartikey’s raw honesty and quiet humor pulls her in. And something about her silence and sharp eyes makes him wonder… Who is this woman, really? This is a story about the unexpected connections between two people from entirely different worlds. It’s about culture, class, identity — and finding someone who sees you, not your résumé.

Kang Woo-Jin was just an ordinary man-suddenly quit his work as a program designer and became jobless. That is, until a fateful day when his friend dragged him to an acting audition, forcing him to perform. It should have been an embarrassing disaster.

A void space appeared in his mind, pulling him deep into the role, forcing him to relive the character's emotions, memories, and even pain. The next thing he realize, He was stabbed. Became a remorseless serial killer. Transformed into a Beast. And became an action star. Each performance was terrifyingly real-too real. And the world took notice. Directors were left speechless. Fellow actors were shaken. Critics hailed him as a once-in-a-lifetime genius. But there was just one problem... Kang Woojin wasn't actually acting. As he navigates the ruthless entertainment industry, the misunderstandings surrounding him grow by the day. Was he a hidden prodigy? A monster in disguise? Or something else entirely? From supporting films to blockbusters, from gripping tragedies to heart-stopping thrillers-Woojin's rise is meteoric. But as the spotlight burns brighter, so does the pressure to keep up the illusion. How long can he maintain this façade before the truth catches up to him? This is the story of a man who never meant to become an actor-yet ended up becoming the greatest one the world had ever seen. *********************************************** DISCLAIMER: [ I DO NOT OWN THIS STORY] CREDITS TO THE OWNER :장탄 TRANSLATED/PROOFREAD BY: Guil_L

It was never meant to be a union. Only a transaction. When Seraphina, the illegitimate daughter of a Southern High Lord, is bartered off in marriage to the cold High Lord of the North, she expects cold stone, colder glances, and a life spent in silence. Instead, she finds herself at the heart of an ancient fortress pulsing with secrets, where every shadow watches, and every man may not be wholly man. Her husband, Lord Aevriel, rules with a cold gaze and iron restraint. Rumored to have murdered his own father to ascend, he is feared by his men and obeyed without question. But beneath his composed cruelty lies something darker, something not entirely human, and Seraphina has just become its most dangerous temptation. Aevriel? He doesn’t want a wife. He wants silence. Obedience. Peace in the haunted dark. But Seraphina makes peace impossible. Their banter is vicious, barbed with heat. Their hatred dances on the edge of something hungrier. Lust coils beneath every glare, every insult, every reluctant brush of skin. He calls her fire. She calls him frost. But neither of them is prepared for what the other truly is. Forced to act as a Southern spy in the North, Seraphina must survive a court of quiet wolves and masked intentions, all while hiding her defiant fire. But as she clashes with Aevriel, their disdain turns volatile, charged with hatred, lust, and the hunger for control. She expected to be owned. She never expected to match him. As Seraphina navigates the cold politics of the North, and Aevriel’s dangerous kin sniff too closely at her Southern scent, something ancient stirs, a truth buried in blood. He was something else... not only wolf. Not human. Something... older. Now, with Seraphina under his roof, and in his bed, the past returns in ways he can’t control. Whispers of prophecy. Bloodlines twisted with something darker. And Seraphina may be the key to unlocking what he’s spent a lifetime running from. They were never supposed to want each other. They were never supposed to need. But in a castle built of frost and secrets, hate and hunger are often the same thing. And what begins as a transaction... might just end in ruin.

But love isn’t all cute glances and accidental kisses. Enter Hyunwoo—the school’s intimidating bully leader who seems way too interested in Jiho’s life lately. Harsh one second, almost soft the next, Hyunwoo’s attention is the kind Jiho doesn’t know what to do with. And in the shadows of it all stands Soobin, a mysterious figure from Hyunwoo’s past.

To top it off, his new existence is that of a Dating Game protagonist. But, this simulation is not at all like a game of choices anymore, is it?

Five years ago, Alec Reyes made the biggest mistake of his life: he fell into the arms of a stranger. He was a beta on the edge of graduation — tired, drunk, and invisible to the world. The man he met that night had violet eyes and a presence that swallowed the storm. A dominant alpha. Rare. Dangerous. Beautiful. Alec never even asked his name. He woke up alone. Now, Alec is a single father with a quiet life, a good job, and a five-year-old son born of that one forgotten night. He never expected the alpha to come back. But he does. Because that man is Riven Kael — the most famous actor on the planet. Untouchable. Cold. Worshipped. And completely unaware that he has a child. When a charity project brings Riven to Alec’s town, everything spirals. Riven doesn’t remember the night they shared — but something about Alec unsettles him. Draws him. And his connection to Alec’s son is instant, instinctive… terrifying. Alec has kept his secret for five years. But Riven is starting to remember. And dominant alphas never forget what’s theirs.
