I really get where mangaka are coming from when they fight to get their manhwa taken down from free sites, but as much as I read, I'd be spending $100 a month if I bought everything and that's just not possible. Why can't Lezhin be like Netflix - $10 a month and read as much as you want...?
If you look at it in an economical point of view, you'll realise that it is not a feasible idea for the Lezhin and the artists to use Netflix as a business model. Even though they look like they provide similar services, The foundations and work processes of their companies are quite different. It's like comparing an etsy shop and a large manufacturing company.

Koreans are money hungry,and they keep on copying japanese ideas when it comes to comics.
I think Lezhin participates in currency manipulation.

Didn't Lezhin get busted a while back for not paying the artists what they actually made? It was a pretty big fiasco.
I don't think that issue with Lezhin was resolved. Oh well.
