Idk bout the pen name, but i think she felt embarrassed cuz her colleague found her old work. It's like when someone found your long long ago diary. Maybe for her, her old writing was a bit childish and unstructured ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
There actually isn't a concise information on what it means in the novel and the translator didn't leave a note either
But it's mentioned *mild spoilers for dialogue related to this* 'The pen name gave off a childish vibe' 'I used that when I was a college student with a lot of sensitivity. Back then, Hitele was popular, you know.'
So I assume that they may be talking about the meaning of words and from looking at google Choi - her name Kang - river but also strong/tough (can be used Gong Du - to major/study a specialty to obtain a higher degree So maybe it mean something along the lines of 'Great/Strong Scholar Choi'.
If not that then the only other interpretation for me is her using a name of another writer and comparing herself to them and there is a Chinese writer and poet Huang Zunxian whose courtesy name is Gongdu And characters may find using an already recognized author's name as yours as childish.
Sorry if it's not exactly what you were looking for but I hope my view on it helped? If anyone has a solid answer, please correct me ╥﹏╥

i think the translation of words go perfectly well with the reason of her embarrassment as writers in the old dynasty were called 'scholars', and she was writing a historical story.
Had to re read it to understand so basicaly our mc can farm in the game. Then sell the produce to the guild (for low price). And buy it using real money, which then brings the produce to reality (which are more expensive)
Can anyone explain what Choi Kang Gondu means? And what’s embarrassing having that as penname?
