Guys why don't you ask the author directly on twitter, about si won's soul and tae min's body instead of posting the same thing over and over again every time a chapter is uploaded because we are just as clueless as you.(〜 ̄△ ̄)〜
I don't have twitter and I don't know the authors twitter account either. Can you go and ask the author for us then?
i do encourage you to tweet to her, i did and she replied within 2 mins.

that is her twitter
And your answer isn't helpful for those who don't have twitter, so why bother posting something that's not going to make a difference? Ftr, I do have twitter, I don't want to know about Si Won's soul and Tae Min's body, and, like you, I would have made some comment about the constant questions being asked on the forum, itself, but, unlike you, apparently, I would have taken responsibility for making exactly those types of comments and would have asked for people who do, as knowing or not knowing was not going to affect me one way or another, either.... Hmm. But, now, as the situation has changed and the translator has been kind enough to provide us with that very information, themselves, if people without twitter simply want me to send the author a message, instead, I will. Just let me know at the top of this message board if you don't have it and I will check back regularly and send a post to her.
I remember when this webtoon has only like 3 or 5 chapters on mangago and alot of ppl said that they went to the official website to purchase some chapters so I thought it was uploaded here as a mean pf publicizing/advertising the webtoon( i even bought some chapters on lezhin) then they went ahead and uploaded the rest of the chapters at once, it was abit unfair to the artist and i felt shocked to be honest,i didn't expect that though, it was like breaching the laws of lezhin..
People were already breaching Lezhin's policies way before "Blood Bank" was uploaded here. Have you ever heard of "Super Outcast?" At the time it was being uploaded on manga sites, this webcomic was only available in Korean and people were translating it to English. Honestly, this was how I discovered Lezhin in the first place back in April. I wanted to know where it came from. I'm guessing that over time, people learned about Lezhin and thought that it seemed "okay" to start redistributing their work despite their obvious warning. I never thought this work would be uploaded on here though, which was why I bought some of the chapters many months ago.
The best way to go is to remove these webcomics and advertise them by directing people to the free chapters. There are ways to read the locked chapters, as I have written in my PSA, but it will take a while to collect the necessary coins to read them. But even then, I know people won't stop continuously uploading stuff.
The problem is that Lezhin webcomics are being redistributed to other media. Both Lezhin and the artists have copyright over the published work (as they have stated on the bottom of their homepage). The work isn't supposed to be appearing anywhere else besides the site itself. Translation doesn't matter. You are still breaching their policies by uploading their comics to the public. In the case of what's happening with "Blood Bank" and "Never Understand," the uploader simply bought the chapters and shared it for the whole world to see. The scanlation groups do not have a right at all. They are not official publishers. That's why many groups encourage readers to buy the artist's comics. Unless you have the artist's or the publisher's permission to upload elsewhere, you are doing something illegal.
*sigh* it is sad actually, the only thing we can do now is to keep supporting the authors as much as possible then we can feel a bit satisfied, I usually purchase the latest chapter every Monday which is korean, and also wait for the translated one which is every Thursday I think, this might sound stupid though but I feel a lot better this way(▰˘◡˘▰)
Why are you here? You shouldnt be on this site because 99% of it is copyrighted?? If you are so holy and like to talk about self rightous "Oh its sad, blah blah" while you turn around and do exactly what you are complaining about being against? It doesn't make sense..actually it sounds like a hypocrite

though i can't deny that i sometimes read the chapters here but at least i am buying it regularly, every week i buy two versions of each chapter the korean raw and the translated one from the official website, while the majority of you are reading it here for free and still complaining and some of you would say thank you translators while actually there is no scalnation team for it.You don't have to send your reply twice though.
Um, okay? If I came off as "holy" and "self-righteous" to you, then sorry, that wasn't my intention. I am here for the same reason just like all of you, to read and to interact with other fans. I was correcting Feryal about what the actual problem was, that it isn't just the translating but also the redistribution of the work in any form. Scanlation groups recognize that what they do is wrong, but they do what they do to increase awareness of a certain piece of work or just the artist him/herself. However, most also tell readers to buy the artist's work if they can to support him/her. My point was that the webcomic should be removed because there are ways that I have found for non-paying readers to continue reading Blood Bank as I have outlined in my PSA. The issue with most of the comics uploaded on these sites are that are serialized in a magazine and released in books, which aren't obtainable for many people. With Lezhin webcomics, there are ways to obtain free coins on the site itself, which will allow you to read the chapters on there. With someone continuously posting the chapters on here, it discourages readers from reading the webcomic on Lezhin. Even though it is illegal for the comics to be on here, I'm not saying that all of them be removed.
I understand there are many readers who live in different countries and therefore do not have access to any of these Japanese, Korean, Chinese comics, or who do not have the finances to buy a physical or digital copy of the work. Because of their circumstances, they turn to these kinds of online sites. I am one of those people, but I am also the kind of person who, if possible, will support the artist(s) if I can. I am a college student and reading these comics are a huge stress-reliever. With some of the money that I have, I buy the books and the chapters of my favorite comics from time to time. So, sorry if I don't have the money to afford everything that I read. And sorry, but I won't be leaving.
Another ugly uke(tailor), bruh such a waste of good art ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍
