why is he still calling him "Mr."??? The official translators need to up their game. We as reader understand at least some korean honorifics perfectly. It wouldn't kill them to just use those honorifics instead of this "Mr." thing.

    The issue is what kinda formal? In English the "Mr." sounds very distant ya'know. Especially when Mr. Kwon does it. I wanna know how they're calling each other. Is it "-ssi or -nim" that they're using. It's the little things that ehance the story more for the people who aren't so fluent in "Hangeul"

    They use 습니다 for each other which is the highest formality in korean. Not 요 which is what youre talking about. Hence why Im also confused that they speak so formally when they fuck like animals

    Exactly why I wanted the Korean specifications for both come out as Mr in English.
