So here’s the thing: “Today’s Webtoon” isn’t actually one specific comic—it’s more like the Korean way of saying “what’s new today” across all the webtoon platforms. Basically, every day there’s a fresh batch of episodes dropping across different genres, and Korea’s got this whole ecosystem of platforms cranking out content like clockwork.
The Major Players & What They’re Serving Up:
Naver Webtoon: The OG heavyweight
- Drops new episodes every morning at 7 AM sharp (because apparently Korean webtoon fans are early risers)
- Big hitters include: Tower of God, Yumi’s Cells, The Gamer
- This is like the Netflix of webtoons—if you’re reading webtoons, you’re probably on here
KakaoPage: The mixed bag
- Free and paid content all jumbled together
- Wide variety of genres—basically something for everyone
- Think of it as the iTunes of webtoons
Lezhin Comics: For the grown-ups
- Specializes in mature content and emotionally heavy stuff
- Lots of unique artistic styles—the indie film section of webtoons
- Not your kid brother’s comic app, if you catch my drift
Toptoon: The adults-only club
- Straight-up 18+ content
- All kinds of genres, but yeah… definitely age-gated for a reason

Pro Tips for the Webtoon Life:
Set up notifications: Most platforms let you follow your favorites and ping you when new episodes drop. Because FOMO is real.
Check the schedule: Each comic has its own upload days—some are weekly, some are M-W-F, whatever. The schedule’s right there on the series page.
Timing matters: During peak hours (like right after new episodes drop), servers can get slammed harder than a college website during course registration. Hit it up during off-peak times if you don’t want the loading wheel of death.
The real talk? Korean webtoons are basically a whole cultural phenomenon at this point. People plan their weeks around release schedules like it’s appointment TV from the 90s. And honestly? With the quality of storytelling and art coming out these days, I totally get it.
So what kind of story are you in the mood for today?
