Why choose this name?

Why use Jeung Yeolsaeng? It's a fictional China so the Chinese would use Chinese names instead of Korean names.

    honestly, i'm kinda torn about this. i was thinking of using cheng liesheng (jeung yeolsaeng) too since that's how his name is written in the korean raws. but someone told me i should just stick to whatever's written in the korean version. i've also been called out for getting some names wrong, like writing MO ZHAO when it's actually mukso according to the korean raws. and to make things even more confusing, some novel translations also stick to the korean names...

    so now i'm just confused whether i should follow the names used in the translated novel or stick to the korean raws instead ( T﹏T )

    i think i'll just wait for manta's official version since it's coming out pretty soon, then i'll just go with whatever names they use. saves me the headache lmao.

    Thank you for explaining why you choose the name. I'm not blaming you, I'm really thankful for your chapters. I only feel awkward reading it since the people involved are Chinese who hates Korean so seeing them using a Korean name is ironic. If you don't mind, since you use the method of keeping them Korean, I suggest using Gwanchang instead of Gwan Chang. That's also the spelling used in the official webtoon, you can cross check with the official page on r1d1, the English name is floating behind his profile. Thank you for your scans.

    thanks for letting me know! i'll start changing the names from now on, especially since i'm also waiting for the official version to come out so i can follow the names they use for blackswan. i guess the names vary because people read the novel from different translations, so everyone ends up getting used to different versionsヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~
