From MDL: A hard-working young woman in the new era wakes up and finds that she has transmigrated into a novel she stayed up reading all night. Fine, what's done is done except she's also in the body of a vicious supporting role. Now a character in a novel, the modern-day girl has to cope with having a traitor father and a playboy brother. What's worse, "she" has already done all sorts of bad things in the earlier parts of the story, so her intentions to ensure that her character stays alive till the end can only be described as a long and difficult road. Only after experiencing things firsthand does she realize that the heroine can easily capture one's smile without much effort. Let's see how the "vicious" supporting character without the heroine's halo and golden armor turn her pile of bad cards into a winning hand.

She thought her engagement to the prince would turn her life around, but when he publicly breaks off their relationship, she finds herself alone again. After her haughty, villainous behavior as the prince’s brideto- be, no one shows her much sympathy—except for the duke’s son Yuri, who attends the same magic academy.

A full-color fantasy comic/webtoon of romance, drama, and second chances. Also known in English as The Fantasie of a Stepmother on the Tapas Media digital platform, this is the story of a beleaguered young noblewoman raising her stepchildren on her own…until she dies and wakes up in the past with the chance to remake her life! The marchioness Shuri Von Neuschwanstein was just a teenager when her husband died, leaving her to manage his lands and raise his children–even though she was young enough to be their sibling. Despite her dedication to her duties, other nobles conspired against her, and her stepchildren rejected her as their mother, leaving her a hardened pariah in her own home. But when she leaves for a new residence during her eldest stepson’s wedding, the marchioness dies and wakes up in the past: on the day of her husband’s funeral! If Shuri is to live these seven difficult years all over again, she’s going to do things differently. Can she rewrite her own fairy tale ending this time around? The hit webtoon also known as The Fantasie of a Stepmother!
