Jo Duffy

Jo Yi-Su, a 23-year-old cheerful and kind-hearted woman, moves into a quiet apartment complex, seeking to navigate life and heal from her lonely past. After losing her parents at 15, she has lived under the care of her generous aunt, who supports her financially. Despite her warmth and love for animals, Jo Yi has always yearned for meaningful connections. Her mundane life takes a turn when she meets her enigmatic neighbor, Im Ki-Joo, a reserved and aloof young man who keeps to himself. Their first meeting happens over a plate of cookies Jo Yi baked to introduce herself to Ki-Joo's mother, Su-Mi. Despite his cold demeanor, Jo Yi feels drawn to him and starts to find excuses to visit, often leaving cookies for his mother. The two share fleeting moments, including an incident where Jo Yi helps Ki-Joo with a cockroach in his apartment, revealing his fear. Slowly, a bond forms as Jo Yi tries to learn more about Ki-Joo, whose life is clouded by secrets and the weight of his family's expectations.

"Ugh, why can't I just die in peace?!" Sugiyama Jo had a morbid plan: to join his family in death as soon as he graduates from high school. And now on his second year, this scheme of his is coming closer into becoming a reality. To him, pointless things such as youth and romance are but mere distractions that could potentially deviate him from his death. Which is why he abides by a strict code to never get involved in anything that will expose him to "a rose-filled youth". But it seems that fate had other plans. Due to the meddling of his guidance counselor, Jo now finds himself cascaded into a series of events that forces him into his "romantic comedy youth era". With his plan at risk of failing, Jo desperately tries to escape the clutches of youth.

What if your best friend were a ghost-and your soulmate? Buchi never imagined his scholarship to a prestigious Korean school would come with invisible princes, ancient curses, and dangerous rivals. As the only one who can see Min Soo, a Korean prince cursed to walk the earth unseen, Buchi becomes his lifeline to hope. Jealous students, power-hungry sponsors, and dark supernatural forces threaten to tear their connection apart. Will Buchi rise above the odds to break the curse, or will love be lost in the shadows of time? Buchi-egeun joheun hakgyo-e iss-eo-neun scholarship-eul jwahae, geu-eun gil-eseo an-bo-in-eun wang-ja-reul mann-a-seo, gil-eseo an-bo-in-eun ma-eum-eul mann-a-seo, Buchi-eun geu-ui ma-eum-eul bich-eo-neun sa-gwa-reul jwahae. , , , .

His voice was steady, but the flicker of confusion and heat in his eyes made my chest tighten. At first he didn't say anything until l asked again but in korean (Neo-neun wae naege ireol geoseul hae-yo?) - "Why are you looking at me like that?" (Jeoneun aniya)"I’m not," I lied, though my gaze refused to move from the water sliding down his neck, tracing the hard lines of his chest before disappearing beneath the towel. (Eotteoke geurae?) " Huh! Really?" he asked, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. ("Neo-neun naege gyeoljeong-gwaui gwaje-cheoreom bolleo issna-yo) "Because you’re looking at me like I’m some kind of forbidden fruit." I swallowed hard, cursing the way my breath hitched. He wasn’t wrong. Something about him—his presence, his confidence, the way he stood there dripping wet like he didn’t have a care in the world—had me unraveling. ("Neo-neun ban-naj-eo iss-eoyo.") "You’re the one standing half-naked," I shot back, though the words lacked bite. ("Mwo neo-neun mweo-rae ganeun-ga?") "What do you expect?" He laughed, the sound deep and rich, like the rumble of a storm. "I didn’t expect you to be so easy to distract." ("Neo-neun joheun geol al-a-isseo.") ("Joheun geol an-iya.") "Distract? I’m not distracted." My words came out too quick, too defensive. He stepped closer, his damp hair falling across his forehead, and for a moment, the space between us felt electric. "Then wati dey make you dey blush?" I opened my mouth to respond, but nothing came out. Because he was right—I was blushing, my pulse racing, my thoughts a mess. And then, just as suddenly as he’d appeared, he was gone, leaving nothing but the memory of his smirk and the ache in my chest that told me this wasn’t over. --- Can you survive the pull of gravity when it’s not just the black hole that’s consuming you—but him? Dive into ETHEREAL BLUE, a tale of cursed ghosts, forbidden connections, and the kind of chemistry that stops time itself.

Eons ago, in a time very distant from memory, there was an age of great fighters known as the Jo-lan. Each Jo-lan fighter was gifted with a unique elemental ability and used their abilities to protect their villages. During the time of the Jo-lan, there was peace and rapid development. That was...until the rise of an evil warlord called Innovain. Innovain was the greatest Jo-lan warrior there ever was. His power was unmatched even by the masters of the Jo-lan martial arts. He had mastered the Jo-lan arts to such a degree that legend refers to him as the Jo-lan-ryu. This was mainly because he had the power to transform into a double-headed black dragon known by all as Souryu. Due to this people started referring to him as Kuroi Ryuu. Unfortunately, even his evil outmatched his power. Innovain fought against the other Jo-lan fighters and brought them to the brink of extinction. The whole world lived in fear of him. However, there were a few brave warriors who challenged Innovain in the hopes of creating a bright future for the next generation. A young boy called Josec Fenix renounces the art of fighting after witnessing the murder of his father. Years later, circumstances force him to take up the art of fighting and redeem the image of all fallen Jo-lan Warriors.

To avenge the death of his grandfather who was murdered by Thomas Cavern, Joseph Bryant plots heinous revenge for the superpower man. The first thing The Bryants will do is kill one of Thomas Cavern's daughters through Jace. To carry out the plan carefully, Jo asks Jace to go to the same school as Thomas Cavern’s daughters. Carrying out the mission, Jace begins to approach Thomas Cavern's innocent daughter (Cleo) although her twin sister (Elsie) forbids their closeness because she knows Jace's background that the boy has been in and out of prison and has a criminal record. One day, Elsie replaces her twin sister to meet Jace. Instead of Cleo, it's Elsie who is kidnapped. However, because of that incident, Jace falls in love with her.
