Villains Are Destined to Die

A Korean webtoon-turned-comic from Yen Press, Villains Are Destined to Die (2022–2025) follows a woman who wakes up as Penelope Eckart, the villainous daughter of a dukedom in a hard-mode otome game. To survive and escape, she must raise her affection levels with the game's male leads—who all despise her—while avoiding the death flags that await her. This eight-issue series, adapted from the popular webtoon by Gyeoeul-Gwon and illustrated by SUOL, stands out for its clever subversion of the isekai and romance genres, blending high-stakes survival with sharp character dynamics.
