Current state of korean webtoons is going downhill?

Hi y'all, this is an opinion based question.
Anyone else feel that the quality of korean yaoi manhwa rn is going downhill? Many promising starts and then both plot and art go downhill from there and tend to end of unfinished or unresolved notes. Thoughts and reasons?

Imo this is partly attributed to the distribution of webtoons, in the format where one chapter is much shorter than a typical manga, and most operate in a pay per chapter state. This makes each chapter kinda clickbaity at times so you'll pay more and buy more. Hence dragging out the plot and ruining pacing.

Also is there a lack of traditional editors like in typical manga where the mangaka reviews the flow, storyline and plot before publishing?

Maybe the difference with Japanese manga is that bl have existed for decades so...... reply

webtoons do have editors but from what ive seen they don't have as much influence on the flow/storyline as editors for manga do. i don't think it's going downhill persay, its just that more things are being translated now. but even with more things being translated, there are still a bunch of hidden gems that never become popular because people w...... reply
