I still get a little giddy every time I tell someone about this one: 'Who Made Me a Princess' was created by the writer Plutus and brought to life visually by the artist Spoon. It started as a web novel and later got a gorgeous webtoon adaptation—the art in the webtoon is what hooked me, honestly. I first bumped into it while doomscrolling after a late-night study session, and the combination of tragic-fated drama and soft, detailed illustrations was a sucker punch straight to my feelings.
The manhwa/webtoon was serialized on platforms like KakaoPage in Korea and gained an English readership through services such as Tappytoon. If you’re the kind of person who loves comparing versions, the web novel and the webtoon have slightly different pacing and extra scenes, so reading both feels like getting director’s cuts. For a cozy binge, start with the webtoon for the visuals, then peek at the novel for extra character moments—I loved seeing how small narrative beats expanded on the page.
