Agreed. That applies to kmedia too the only reason kr marketing noticed manhwa/kanime/knovels etc. Was befause it got popular overseas from fantranslations, so them actively sueing those fans are killing their support. It sucks so bad revisiting old finished translations now gone because they got nuked by a ceased and desist
A lot of people pirate and read off sites like this read becausea lot of manga titles are still not readily accessible and available in their countries legally. And even if they are, they are not as affordable as they are in Japan. It's around $3-4 per volume in Japan. In my country it's 3-4x that. Sites like this make lesser known manga easier to access. And for sure fans would buy physical (or digital) copies if they could afford it.
