SAGEOFTHE6PACK August 19, 2026 7:21 pm

thanks everyone for reading with me, this has been a labor of love and pretty much all i've done every waking moment of the last two months. i'm going to upload some twitter extras and i'll probably go back and make some corrections to previous chapters, but otherwise, the updates will now be weekly (save for the scheduled hiatuses).

let me know if there's anything from the author you'd like to see translated, and i'll do what i can.

you can find me in a few different places online,

i'm open to requests if there are any other hidden gems like this without western releases, and i actually had more experience with japanese before this, so let me know if there are any manhwas or mangas you'd like to see. otherwise, thanks again, and i'll see you all next monday

    Dear Sage, honestly thank you so much for making this accessible. It filled something in me and i‘m even trying to listen to classical music. Also i‘m gonna buy some chapters on lezhin something i‘ve never done before.

    Thank you very much for your hard and quality work. I am a comic artist myself and these wonderful works are very inspiring. I would not have gotten this comic otherwise, I am still trying to get it somehow to support the artist.

    I love you so much Sage.

    Just curious, are you Korean or did you teach yourself Korean? Either way you did a fantastic job for a solo amateur translator. I’ve seen official releases with worse translation. Thank you so much again.

    Thank you, Sage! I honestly can't believe that we're now caught up to raws which is mind blowing considering that 205 chapters usually takes a year or so if it was an official. I'll be back next week again for your uploads. Until then, ima find another gems like NME.

    i studied japanese as a foreign language all throughout school and taught myself korean alongside it. im not either, but i have some korean and japanese family, which is what got me started. i've translated a few physical japanese works, so i had a bit of experience prior to this, but this is my first time posting anything. thanks so much, it means a lot.

    sage, thank you so so much for all of your hard work. you have no ideaaaa how much i appreciate you. finding and reading nme has been the highlight of my summer. it’s so incredible and made me want to engage with classical music and just art in general even more !! again, thank you soooooo much for sharing your translations with us !!!!

    the best kind of translation is the type you don't even notice is a translation because of its naturalness and effectiveness. seriously thank you so much for not only being so prolific but for producing this kind of quality too! would have never found such a beautiful story if not for you!

    Thanks a lot for your effort and time. I wouldn’t have read this hidden gem without your translations

    Hi, thanks for translating. I have heard how good this is and have just started reading. Saw that you said you’ll go back and correct any of the earlier chapters. I’ve just read chapter 8 and there’s definitely one, or possible more, panels missing. Thanks again for translating. I’m looking forward to catching up!

    STUFF August 22, 2026 8:41 am

    Hi. Came back again to say ch.10 also is missing a page or more - same as ch.8 and I’m unsure if there was an issue with ch.11 or the 11.5, I just know I felt a bit confused…
    Thanks once more for your translations!

    Oh no! Is there any chance you could upload your own?
    I’ve seen before when someone else posts the same chapter usually with caption saying “better quality” or “fixed translation” etc. so maybe you could too? Not uploading over those chapters but just adding it to the list.…

    STUFF August 23, 2026 5:30 am

    If you want an example of what I mean check out The Hunter Wants to Live Quietly. The official uploads there are fine but the list of uploads by fan translation have double chapters saying “better quality” (ch. 15 - 18 along with others). These have all been uploaded by someone other than the original uploader so I’m hoping you could do the same??? I don’t mean to pressure you or anything but myself and a lot of other people are loving this series and are truly grateful for your efforts to bring it to us!!! It would be great if ch. 1 - 11.5 were of a better quality also. Again, thank you for what you have already translated. Hope I’ve done the link correctly otherwise just search the name :)

    I can’t edit my comment, was meant to type 1 - 12 but forgot to fix that :/

    Sage, I genuinely just wanted to say thank you You have no idea how many times your chapters have literally saved me. I always look forward to seeing you upload them because the moment I start reading, it’s like I’m completely indulged in my own little world ahhh !!! I just keep smiling whenever I see a notif that you posted a new chapter
