Who Created Payback Bl And What Is Their Other Work?

Okay, this one’s a bit of a rabbit hole — 'Payback' is a title that pops up in various boys’ love spaces, and that’s part of the confusion. From what I’ve tracked, there isn’t a single universally-known BL work called 'Payback' that everyone points to; different creators in different countries (Korea, Japan, China, and English indie creators) have used that title for one-shots, webtoons, or fan projects. Because of that, the best route is to check the publication page where you read it: official platforms like Lezhin, Webtoon, Tapas, Pixiv, or the publisher’s site will list the creator name and often link to their other titles.

If you’ve got the version you’re thinking of — for instance a Korean webtoon, a Japanese doujinshi, or a Chinese web novel — try searching the title plus the language: add Hangul, Kanji/Kana, or Chinese characters to the query. That usually turns up the author’s handle or an artist’s Pixiv/Twitter, and from there you can click through to their other works. Fan databases like MyAnimeList, Baka-Updates, or specialized BL wikis also help, but be careful with scanlation credits; the creator info lives in the official release.

Personally, I love chasing down creators’ other works once I find the name — there’s always that thrill of discovering a completely different tone or art style from the same person. If you want, I can describe how to do a targeted search for the most likely languages and platforms next time; for now, start with the platform that published the copy you read and follow the creator link — that’s usually the cleanest path.

I’ve been down that kind of search more times than I can count, and the messy truth is that 'Payback' isn’t a unique-enough title to point at one creator straight away. A lot of BL one-shots and indie comics reuse punchy English titles, so unless you know whether your 'Payback' was a Korean manhwa, a Japanese manga/doujin, a Chinese web novel, or an English indie comic, you get ambiguous results. My practical trick is to look for metadata: the publisher imprint, ISBN (for print), the platform’s uploader name, or even the header images — they often include the creator’s signature or handle.

Once you have the creator’s name or handle, follow their social media or publisher page to see other works. Creators usually have a small catalog — maybe a couple of serialized titles, some one-shots, and doujinshi or short novels. If the piece was on an international platform, check localized pages: Lezhin and Webtoon often keep English profiles that list previous series. I also use manga databases and Goodreads for novels to cross-check translations and alternate titles; that leads to things like anthologies or collaborative projects that aren’t obvious from the main listing.

It’s honestly rewarding when you find the creator’s earlier stuff — you can trace their growth and see recurring themes. I love those little author-arc discoveries; they feel like finding hidden tracks on a favorite album.

Short and practical: there are multiple BL works titled 'Payback' across different regions, so there isn’t one single creator to name without more context. The fastest way to identify the creator and their other works is to go to the original publication page (where you read 'Payback') and look for the author/artist credit, then click to their profile or search that name on Pixiv, Twitter, Webtoon/Lezhin, or a manga database like Baka-Updates. If it’s a print book, the ISBN or publisher page will list the creator and often link to other titles or a bibliography.

If you’re hunting in Korean/Japanese/Chinese, add the local script of the title to your search to avoid misleading English results. Once you have the creator’s name, you’ll usually find a handful of other works — short stories, serialized series, or doujin circles — and those are great to binge. Happy hunting; I always get excited finding a new favorite creator’s back catalog.
