Seven Seas Licenses Secret Relationships Webtoon for Print in August 2027

Seven Seas Entertainment will release the Secret Relationships boys-love webtoon in print under its Seven Seas Webtoons label, with volume one arriving in August 2027 in large-trim editions at US$22.99 and CAD$30.99. The webtoon, drawn by McQueen STUDIO and finished in 2023, follows Daon, a frugal young man whose coworker Sunghyeon learns why he saves. It passed 170 million views on Kakao Webtoon.
McQueen STUDIO drew the series, and Seven Seas plans large-trim print editions rather than a standard manga trim size. The story centers on Daon, who grew up in poverty and saves aggressively; his coworker Sunghyeon is irritated by the habit until he sees Daon's parents asking him for money at work. Daon also has to sort out his feelings for Jaemin, a former tutor and mentor, and a secret he has kept from others.
The live-action adaptation premiered in 2025 and streams internationally, including in the United States, on iQIYI, with WEi member Jun-seo Kim, Sun-hyung Cha, Jung-woo Cha, and Ho-young Kim in the cast. The English webtoon is on Tapas.
