Pregnancy brings along an entire spectrum of emotions for any couple. Surely, there are big moments of joy and excitement, but there are also huge adjustments that the couple has to make to get ready for the big responsibility of parenthood. And Plus One illustrates this emotional rollercoaster quite perfectly, that too with an added layer of cutesy wholesomeness.

The story of Plus One revolves around the day-to-day life of a young couple, Jamie and Gloria, who have been married for two years and are expecting their first baby. It covers everything from morning sickness and ultrasounds to food cravings and keeping the so-called bun-in-the-oven a secret, and all of these heartwarming moments are indeed very fun to witness.

This webtoon’s relatability, simplicity, and coziness have the power to hook you from start to finish. So, while you will enter the world of Plus One with Gloria breaking the news to Jamie in a hilariously unforgettable way (let’s just say it involves the bathroom!), you won’t be able to get out before you witness this couple giving birth to their little bundle of joy.

William is a city boy to the core. He thrives in the comfortable life of the big city and loves all the conveniences that it provides. But his life turns upside down when his mom divorces his dad and moves to the countryside with him and his siblings. Naturally, William isn’t a big fan of this move. And seeing that the house they have to move in is a total dump as well, he has all the more reason to pout about it. But will things change when he meets a certain country girl who’s fond of chickens and goats?

Roots Of The Heart is all about a budding enemies-to-lovers romance between William, a city boy with a sharp tongue, and Bonnie, a playful country girl with a zest for life. The day-to-day life of the main lead adjusting to the discomforts of country life is often like witnessing a hilarious reality show unfold. However, to balance all that goodness, the webtoon also delves deep into heavy themes like parental neglect and childhood trauma from time to time, giving its readers a little bit of everything, a true slice-of-life experience.

If you are the kind of person who loves office sitcoms like Parks and Recreation and The Office, then reading It’s Just Business is a must for you. This webtoon throws Eunho Ha and Ji-ung Seo, two office workers from opposite sides of the tracks, into the hilarious mosh pit of adulting.

Eunho is a practical girl who has been taught by her middle-class father to always prioritize money in her life. She values financial security above everything and meticulously plans her every second for a fast climb to the top. Meanwhile, in stark contrast, Ji-ung comes from an extremely rich family and was living his life in easy mode until his grandfather pushed him out of his comfort zone and coerced him to get an office job to learn the value of money. It’s when these two clash that the fun actually begins.

The biggest strengths of It’s Just Business are its dramatic office politics and hilariously relatable money meltdowns. To add more to all that goodness, this webtoon also has a slow-burning enemies-to-lovers romance that will leave you craving for more.

Boy-Friend’s Rule is a must-read for anyone looking for a webtoon filled with high-school theatrics and hilarity. It follows Jiun Kim, an ordinary high-school girl, as she goes through the everyday experiences of teenage life. The webtoon starts with Jiun thinking that her crush and best-friend, Jae-i, is finally going to confess. But instead of a love confession, she gets hit with the friend-zone bomb as he ends up telling her that he has a crush on someone else.

To get out of the awkward situation, Jiun lies and tells him that she has a crush on someone else as well. And Jae-i, being the clueless menace that he is, jumps to his own conclusions about it. Not only does he think she has a crush on Seohyeon, the brooding giant who’s also his childhood friend, but now super-dense Jae-i wants to play matchmaker with both of them as well. Little does he know that Seohyeon is the complete opposite of Jiun’s usual type, and there’s no way she’ll go along with this crazy scheme!

Fans have already dubbed Boy-Friend’s Rule, “The Upcoming Big Webtoon,” with one user commenting, “It feels crazy to be this early to what’s going to be a big Webtoon.” The series definitely has a lot of things going for it. Its unhinged comedy arises from some of the most relatable and regular stuff and its hilarious art style serves as the perfect comedic garnish on top of all of it. What’s more, each character brings a breath of fresh air with their own comedic style and unique personality. Jiun and Seohyeon’s laugh-out-loud romance takes center stage, with writing that grabs you from the get-go and relatable struggles that make you thoroughly invested in the story.

And while raising post-transformation Maru has put Woori to her wits’ end, loneliness is a thing of the past, and she’s absolutely thrilled about it.

Maru is a Puppy is definitely the megastar in this star-studded list of slice-of-life picks. One of its biggest strengths is its laugh-out-loud art style. The wildly exaggerated expressions of its characters will catch you off guard and keep you giggling for hours. And if you’re looking for unique characters that you can adore, it has plenty of them as well. There’s the coconut-hearted downstairs neighbor, the scary-looking kindergarten teacher with a heart of gold, and the cute mukbang YouTuber who absolutely loves Maru.
