i agreeee. i understand if people are offended with her word, but she's the one who has a lot more to lose. she spent time, energy, effort, creativity to create it. what we're gonna lose? just a manhwa, thats it. there are hundred more manhwas we have out there.
I'm an illegal reader myself, literally the only thing you have to do as an illegal reader is to shut up and not interact with the author, thats it. dont fight the author on twitter or anything. just shut up and read the manhwa on pirate sites in silence
THIS THIS THIS!!!! UP UP UP!!!!!
thankyou soooomuch for sharing the same thought as me while i cant put into so much words like you. you really explain good points!!!
i hope people who read illegal understand that creator/author/artist are the upper hands in this industry. i hate them bcs they share and more like proud to read illegal and get notice by the author who is doing THEIR JOB. i hate them for always bring poverty while the author too is not some rich people. they making manhwa for them just to eat, and live.
please. please. dont be proud you (them) still read illegally. dont share. dont speak. dont mention anything.
lets keep reading what we want here in peace please….
listen, i will repeat. they are the upped hands in this field. what i mean is, not just euja but for all creators/artists that we adore and love
if they decide to stop working, we will not see their work anymore…
if they decide sued in more seriously, we will lose this site..
just please.. stay silent. dont bragging anything.
Don't bother making excuses. What we're doing is literally stealing. Just own up to it and keep reading secretly don't be dumb and post ts anywhere esp twitter, there's no roundabout way of justifying reading illegally. Seriously. Euja doesn't owe us any kind words, even I am ashamed but I'm poor and can only read 3 manhwas legally (Backlight, Jinx and AFOS)
Plus, the reasoning 'her works are popular bc of us' is such BS. Her income, and other artist's income is heavily reliant on the purchased chapters. If it's true that us illegal readers are making their works famous and bringing them money then they wouldn't be this angry. It's not just Euja, a lot of artists and writers have joined in on the discussion as well. Please do read their perspective too and stop feeling like you're the victim.
I forgot the username but one writer said that in order to continue the S2 of their works they had to take out loans and work two jobs at the same time. And since manhwa artists are considered freelancers, sometimes they can't get approval for loans so they had to take high interest loans from credits cards. It's their livelihood, man.
TLDR: Let Euja say what she wants to say because at the end of the day, she and her fellow artists are the victim here. You can get hurt when she said that 'you should disappear' but it's her who will eventually perish overtime if no one legally buys her work.
