If you’re an anime or webtoon fan, you’re probably wondering where you can read the Lookism webtoon online before you watch the anime series on Netflix, but before we get to the webtoon guide, here’s a trailer for the anime series to give you an idea what Lookism is about:
What is Lookism’s story about?
Lookism’s story revolves around a high-school student named Daniel Park (Park Hyung Seok), who can switch between two bodies: one ugly and fat, and the other handsome and muscular. He receives the new body after moving to Seoul to attend a new high school. When one body is in use, the other falls asleep, so he uses the handsome body during daytime, and he switches to his original fat body for the night. Netflix also shared an official description for the Lookism anime:
“Lookism” is a term used to refer to the positive stereotypes, prejudice, and preferential treatment given to physically attractive individuals, or more generally to people whose appearance matches cultural preferences.
Where can I read Lookism online?
Lookism is available to read for free on Webtoon.com. Of course, there are unofficial websites and YouTube videos that feature the webtoon, but this is the official way to read it online. There are also fan translations you can find on social media, but we highly-encourage you to read the official English translation on Webtoon.com.
