The Remarried Empress revolves around Navier, the perfect Empress of the Eastern Empire, who chooses divorce after discovering that her husband, Emperor Sovieshu, plans to replace her with his mistress. Determined to reclaim her status, Navier resolves to become an Empress in another land.
The English version of the The Remarried Empress webtoon is available on WEBTOON. Ize Press is releasing the series in print.
The webtoon Delusion was created by Hongjacga and originally serialized in Korea from 2019 to 2020, followed by a U.S. release in 2021. Set during the early 20th century under Japanese colonial rule in Korea, the story centers on the relationship between a mysterious vampire woman and an unknown painter.
The original webtoon is available to read in English on the WEBTOON platform. Inklore licensed the series in September and will release the first volume in print in summer 2026.
