If so-called "fans" keep posting English translations here until chapter 60, what reason would Lezhin have to "provide an official English translation", as the petition says?
(It seems people signed that petition just for show and to feel good about themselves,
no matter how selfishly they behave.
They even compare the amount of effort to translate a chapter individually using an app
-- "oh, too much sacrifice!" --
to the amount of work to make a chapter.
They want the updates even if it's against the author's wishes...
As a follower said at Twitter: "we don't deserve" this masterpiece.)
Do you people realize the meaning of your own words?
It's like the author wasn't a real person and what you've been reading here wasn't the result of talent and work (WORK!). You either recognize its value or you consider it something like a hobby, that one does in one's free time, with no worries about being paid or not.
Maybe too many people have been spending too much time in a virtual world and became incapable of empathy, incapable of looking back to reality when it stares you in the eye.
Have you at least seen the author's post at Twitter (there's a Translate Tweet option in case you haven't seen it...):

So, if this manhwa had been cut down to 40 chapters by Lezhin, due to the low number of viewers, you'd be happy as long as you could read its translation here? Or you'd demand even more chapters from the author, because you think it's "unfair" that you can't read it for free? Have you lost the ability to reflect on your words and actions?
Sorry, my mistake.
(not that it changes the general meaning of what I've just written -- does it?)
Thank you so much, Sari!
Anyone who realizes how precious this manhwa is and how important it is to respect the author... anyone with a conscience understands and praises your decision to stop!
(sorry, I've just tried to post something but I can see it, so now it's just a test...)
If you're in doubt about supporting the author at Lezhin...
When it comes to Korean, I'm a complete illiterate. I needed help to create a Lezhin account and I only know where to click there using Google Translate.
Even though, considering the situation, I wasn't bothered by the fact that I'm buying chapters in a language in which I don't know what is what. The author deserves all the support we can give, don't you agree?
But... it doesn't have to be this way! If you can afford to buy at least a few chapters, you can translate them using this app, "Papago". I've tried last night with chapter 32 and it really works!
Thanks @Nyctechie08 & @Syxx for sharing the knowledge!

P.S.: since the only payment option they gave me at Lezhin/Korean version was not an option, (after the coins received as gift were spent) I used the money in my Google Play Store account to purchase coins at the English version, using my smartphone. I'm not sure, but I believe the options are different according to the country. The options in my PC and my smartphone are also different.
If only there was an feature to like replies..... Thankyou for this message
could someone, please, give me some link with a really, really easy to understand tutorial so i can buy some chapters? (btw, i don't have a credit card and i can't read korean...)
thanks in advance!
geez, i believe nobody's gonna read this but, anyway... I find it hard even to create an account there... this is gonna take time!

is there any brazilian readers here? algum brasileiro aqui?
estou pensando em colocar crédito no google play usando um daqueles cartões vendidos em supermercados, etc. alguém faz idéia de quantos reais eu deveria colocar para conseguir comprar, digamos, pelo menos uns 10 capítulos?
Hii! At lezhin it's very easy to make an account
1. You have to go to log in and put your email and password
2. I think it will say to verify your account by sending you massage on e-mail and you just have to go to your e-mails and click "verify"
3. Go back there and you will have account!!
—and yes you need to have a credit card to buy coins :( but you get 1 coin every 2 days I think and you can also play games or do some quizzes for free coins! Hope this helps, sorry I explain things really bad :(
Thank you, Gloria! I've just created an account!
And I also found in the comments a tutorial to buying coins cheaper in the Korean version
(in case anyone else is also trying and finding it difficult:
https://daisies-and-lilies-castle.tumblr.com/post/168227170993/how-to-purchase-lezhin-coins-from-korean-version)
The "problem" with it was that it assumed the person at least had already created an account, hehe.
Oh, and about the credit card: it seems I can put money in a Google Play account using one of those cards sold in supermarkets, without a credit card, and then use it to buy coins. I'm not very well now, health-wise, but I'll probably be able to try to do it this week and see if it works.
Thank you again, Gloria!
No problem!! Hope you'll be okay soon, have a nice day!
You're amazing for supporting the author, all the best!! If you need any more help feel free to ask :)
oh, oh, oh... thank you, Syxx! (And hachihachi!) I'll do my best to put it in practice! :)

As much as I hate it, you are true
I'm willing to give this series up for the author's sake
Funny thing tho, there are lots of unlicensed works become licensed in many platform lzh, tpptoon, tps, webcmcs, wecmcs, you name it... Were fanscanlated and shared here long before they become licensed. By the time they were licensed in English, they already had international fans who are willing to buy chapters and support there, by paying or watching ads. The main purpose of fanstranslation is exactly to introduce int'l fans to these unlicensed work. I mean if u don't know that then it means you're new to here..
I'm not justifying that this is illegal and there will always lot more readers reading from pirated site than the official platform, but a lot of fans who got hooked when reading the fanstranlation of unlicensed work will also go to length to support the author when it's officially tranlated.
Exactly. By shutting it down, she is hurting herself, not helping.
