Idk if the people who do the translations are in the comments but THANK YOU SO MUCH for your work this is one of the greatest manhwas I’ve ever read I love the pacing, the story, the comedy, the characters, and the art is fucking phenomenal. I’m glad we don’t have to stick all the way behind with the officials. Can’t imagine how much work goes into translating a historical manhwa like this with all the old terms and speech, but I appreciate yall so much, your effort really shows!!!
AAHHHHH TY SO MUCH ILY hope many good things come to you genuinely!! When I finished the officials and saw that there were fan trans I figured they would be a miss bc of the historical aspect so imagine my surprise when I opened the next chapter and saw such wonderful, professional work yall are my goats I LOVE YOUUUUUUU
Do y’all prefer the fan trans or the official trans? I’ve already read it with the fan trans and I’m familiar with the ahjussi > mister change for the official but I’m wondering if the official trans flows better
Read both of them and my opinion is:
While I love the fan translations, a few scenes where translated differently, which changed the whole meaning of the context and, for me, made more sense. I know it's hard to translate things without changing or losing meaning, but I think the official translator did a good job, probably because they could consult the author, which was not the case for shoira (and this makes them even more amazing!). Even so, they did an amazing work, and the memes were a nice bonus!
Considering you already read the fan translations, try reading the official one to observe the changes. It was worthy to me
Example
Chapter 16, top says to bottom the following. Every "–" represents a single speech bubble, and, aside from it, I basically copy/pasted down to every single comma or dot.
Shoira translation:
– It has never came to my ming that I'd hurt anyone during sex so I'm not that sure...
– I won't let you feel pain again..
– Or you can move on your own on top of me
– Just move the way you want from how much you like my dick...
Official translation:
– I've never cared about being gentle in bed, so I can't say I'll keep my word...
– ...But I'll make sure it doesn't hurt.
– Or you could get on top...
– And ride me however you like.
So... whereas fan translations might be more accurate to the text itself, the official ones tend to put more mind on the flow of the conversation – adapting, rather than simply translating. This is just a sample for comparison, but I love both of them and I'll be eternally grateful for Seira and Sho for making such a good work.






I was considering rereading this bc I don’t remember much but seeing how hypocritical blondie is about those drugs, I think I’m just gonna save my time and just read with some missing context
