Seven Seas Licenses Painter of the Night Boys' Love Manhwa Series

(March 19, 2025) — Seven Seas Entertainment is thrilled to announce the license acquisition of the Mature-rated, full-color Boys' Love manhwa series Painter of the Night by Byeonduck. A dark romance about a painter who refuses to paint and a nobleman who will do anything to make him. The Boys' Love ​​sensation finally makes its way to English print!

Na-kyum is a talented artist who excels in painting beautiful gay erotica, though he does so under a pseudonym. Yet recently, he has given up painting, vowing never to create lewd art again. But the notoriously lust-driven nobleman Seungho Yoon didn't get the memo—nor will he accept it—and forces Na-kyum to become his in-house painter, demanding the artist create his erotic works just for Seungho to enjoy. Can Na-kyum endure being Seungho's personal painter of the night or will the late-night activities be too much for him?

Painter of the Night Vol. 1 will be printed for the first time in the English language in September 2025 for $26.99 USA / $35.99 CAN, with the series available in full-color, large-trim editions as part of the Seven Seas Webtoons label.
