Acclaimed thriller creators Carnby Kim and Youngchan Hwang have made their return to WEBTOON with a new series titled COPYCAT, which debuted on April 14 in English. The series debuted in Korean on January 6.
Known for hit titles such as Bastard and Sweet Home, the duo have built a reputation for crafting thrillers.
The story of the COPYCAT webtoon reads:
A serial killer is staging corpses as “self-destruction art” and selling them to the ultra-wealthy for tens of millions. When failed artist Suchan Kim recognizes the concept as his own—stolen from an exhibition the world laughed into oblivion—his obsession with proving this mutates into something darker: a hunger for the recognition he never received. In a world where spectacle is worth more than life, will Suchan expose the killer, or become part of the masterpiece?
Rather than focusing solely on the horror of the crimes, the story explores Suchan’s complex reaction — less driven by fear than by anger over having his work plagiarized. As he begins tracking down the killer using clues tied to attendees of his original exhibition, the narrative unfolds into a psychological cat-and-mouse game.
Seven Seas Entertainment began releasing the print edition of the duo’s Bastard series in May 2025, and will release the fifth volume on August 11. WEBTOON has released the duo’s Bastard and Sweet Home series in English digitally, and has also released Kim’s Shotgun Boy, Pigpen, and Flawed Almighty series in English.
Fans can read the English version of COPYCAT on WEBTOON.

The manga centers on the titular characters Ao and Midori. Ao excels at both sports and academics at his high school, but is so innocent his nickname at school is “baby.” Midori is in love with Ao, but due to various issues he is unable to be honest, and the two have a “mutual unrequited love.” During their high school years, they are both imprisoned by the framework of “normalcy” and are unable to convey their feelings for each other. Throughout the next eight years, as they move on from high school and become working adults, they slowly deepen their relationship.
France Shoin published the first volume in August 2023, and Printemps Shuppan published the second volume on May 28.
Roji‘s Countdown to Yes boys-love manga previously inspired a live-action television series that debuted in January. Animate International publishes the manga in English and also publishes Roji‘s All About My Two Dads manga in English.
