Lookism would later become part of a larger universe through Park Taejun's manhwa company, with works written by Park Taejun and drawn by other artists or simply under Taejun's supervision. These spinoff manhwas include:

* ''Webcomic/ViralHit', starring Yoo Hobin, tying into Manager Kim through Song Taehoon's father, Song Hansoo.
* "Webcomic/ManagerKim", starring White Tiger Job Center Manager Kim in a prequel to the current events of Lookism, and which has some of the most prominent ties to the other spinoffs through Song Hansoo and Park Jincheol, as well as direct references to Lookism with the cameos of [[spoiler: Goo, Sophia, and others.]]
* "Webcomic/MyLifeAsALoser," starring Jang Anchul and Kim Jinwoo, tying into Manager Kim and Viral Hit through Park Jincheol's daughter and a flashback involving [[spoiler: The Fighting Chicken during wartime.]]
* "Webcomic/{{Questism}}", starring Kim Suhyeon, and his efforts to unite all of Gangbuk following [[spoiler: Johan Seong's disbanding of God Dog.]] As such, it mainly ties into Lookism through cameos from Haru Seong's cousin [[spoiler: Johan Seong]] and apparently Gukja's bloodline as one of the [[spoiler: Yamazaki Clan members.]]

* AnAesop: The moral lessons are delivered with the subtlety of a MegatonPunch. They include:
** Do not ever judge a book by its cover.
** Respect your parents, they are willing to go through all kinds of endeavors just for your sake.
** Only your persistent hard work and efforts can help you overcome people's (initial) perception of you.
** No, even if you are discriminated by society because of your ugliness, just screaming around like a SpoiledBrat and never facing the challenges of life head-on by using said past discrimination as an excuse, is not an option.

* NeverMyFault: [[StalkerWithACrush Gangnam Land Lord]] refuses to see anything wrong with stalking and almost stabbing Ha Neul as he constantly blames his predicament on society and the government for discriminating against ugly people like himself. Vasco calls him out on this, [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse pointing out that living a hard life doesn’t excuse his evil behavior since he refuses to move past his trauma and use it as an excuse to sit back and whine instead of moving past it.]]
