not targeting anyone specifically, just speaking in general

honestly ive seen this happen a lot but i find it really inappropriate when people call chinese and korean authors "sensei" or call chinese authors "___-nim" because that is NOT part of their culture. asian cultures are not interchangeable and its just weird and inappropriate to do so

    pretty sure its jagga-nim or jeoja-nim (im not sure which is most widely used because jagga means writer and jeoja means author) but most of the time fans just refer to them as ___-nim but the problem here is that djun isnt korean which is why its inappropriate to refer to them as such

    For Chinese it’s ‘laoshi’ which means teacher.
