Read it straight through on Webtoon. 1 to 115. The side stories labeled ‘A King’s Memory’ or ‘Court of Shadows’ fit neatly between Seasons 2 and 3. The artist occasionally drops bonus content out of sequence, but the app’s built-in order is perfectly coherent for a first-time reader. The only chapter that ever tripped me up was a holiday special that referenced future events.

Man, this is the exact question I wrestled with when I first found it. The 'Red King' webtoon is tricky because there’s the main series, some side stories, and the occasional flashback chapters that were released out of chronological order. If you're on the official platform like Webtoon, just reading from Episode 1 onward works fine—they’ve mostly got it sorted. The story follows Ray’s rise in the underworld, so following that linear path makes the most sense for the power progression.

But heads up, there’s a prequel chapter called 'Before the Crown' that delves into the previous king. It’s technically set before Episode 1, but I’d recommend reading it after you finish Season 1. It hits way harder when you already know the stakes and the legacy Ray is dealing with. Jumping into it too early kind of spoils the mystery around the old regime. I made that mistake and regretted it.

Honestly? I read it completely out of order at first because I found some fan-translated chapters before the official release caught up, and I still loved it. The narrative has a non-linear feel in places anyway, with flashbacks woven in. The official order is obviously designed, but don’t stress if you accidentally read a side story early. The core appeal is the character dynamics, and those shine through regardless.

I’d just say avoid the special epilogue chapters until the very end. Those are clearly marked as ‘Season Finale’ or ‘Special’ and they’re meant as a capstone. Everything else is pretty flexible. The fan wiki has a detailed list, but I found consulting it took me out of the immersion.

Where can I read the red king webtoon online for free legally?

Man, it's a bit of a pain, honestly. The official English release is on Webtoon, but it's locked behind Daily Pass, which basically lets you read one episode free every 24 hours. So yes, it's free legally, but you can't binge it. It's a massive, sprawling manhwa, so that slow drip can be agony if you're trying to catch up. If you're absolutely determined to read it for free without that wait, your only legal options are seeing if your local library offers a digital comics service like Hoopla. Sometimes they have Webtoon titles. Otherwise, it's the Daily Pass grind or waiting for one of Webtoon's occasional free unlock events. I gave up and just used coins to binge a chunk of it during a sale.
