Did you read MTL or wordexcrept? Or is there a proper TL somewhere already?
The first two volumes are available on Amazon. Those are the ones I read.
In english?
Yes, in English.
Who translated it? I read it under paywall at wordexcrept site, they're the ones who had license at the time. Now they have 3 volumes up. The TL was kinda bad as in they used a ton of fancy words and it felt unnatural like TL by chatGPT. And they have censored all the intimate scenes out.
Is the amazon version different?
I don't know who translated it. I can't really say much about the translation quality either but it's not censored.
Did it?!
thinking that way from just a stranger you saw is CRAZYYY
Okay, I read the book so let me explain the smoking part because it is a bit confusing here. Youngwon vaguely remembers hearing from someone that the sensation of smoking is somewhat similar to the aftertaste of an affair. He wonders if this stranger (Hohyun) has a lover and if it's a woman or a man. He concludes that his encounters likely lean towards women, given how he carried himself and his conformity to societal norms. He indulges in sexual fantasies about him. He wonders what kind of facial expression he makes when he reaches orgasm, and whether he smokes after sex while naked and unguarded.
