The saying is definitely from the translation. In the raws it said "You'd do your utmost to ignore my calls and ignored me but now you're making up unplanned schedules that
didn't exist?" Sorry it cut off, I accidentally hit on post lol. Idm the scanlation personally but I wanted ppl to know where that came from and it wasn't in the author's script!
This sounds a lot more better and makes more sense than what the scanlations added
I'm not sure why they translated it that way because putting an English saying for the translation where there wasn't a Korean one is a unique choice. I'm thankful to the uploader, I just found it interesting as someone who likes learning languages.
It's actually a saying that's popular worldwide. Nowadays it's not really said that much (though I still hear it albeit rarely) but ~10 years ago I used to hear ppl say it a lot. The author is clearly from an older generation and I think that's why they might've put it in the script (tho Idk for sure if it's them or the translation because where I read the raws it's not going to be updated until tomorrow), it also makes sense that they aren't so aware of cultural issues that younger generations are more aware of.
I was oblivious about it being culturally insensitive to those who are muslim since I'm not into any particular religion but it really is unfortunate to know some ppl have felt wounded while reading this chapter. Thankfully, as time goes by people are more conscious about ceasing certain behaviours and saying specific things that are received as rude by others, so I'm sure this will be one of those things too.
i dont even think the author used it but rather the english translation team
I won't know for sure until tomorrow because this manhwa is from l3zhin and I can't buy the raws there since it's not foreigner friendly. It's going to be updated tomorrow on the bunny site so I'll check when it's up. Tbh the reason I read this manhwa here nowadays is because the English version is available here faster than on the bunny site but it's crazy the difference in the comments lmfao
You were right! I posted what was originally in the script in a newer post but basically the author didn't even write a saying at all. Idk where that came from because it's not like they put that as an equivalent to a korean saying.
For those interested, romance is not the focus of the novel, and mc and ml only kiss at around the middle or a little sooner (we are not even on chapter 100 of the novel and there are 293 where I read the raws from). The misunderstanding takes a LONG time to be resolved and it's all because of ml telling mc to back off and then resenting mc for actually avoiding him because he forgot he even said that.. I'm on chapter 197 rn and so far ml is trying to conquer mc lol. Mc doesn't reject ml when he confesses his feelings but I think he's confused because he hasn't been asked out and ml wants to get chummy. We don't really get many moments of them together though, the story is centered around mc overcoming situations that endanger him, meeting special people in the process, and those ppl wanting to protect him back. I hope there's more romantic interactions as I keep reading but I still got to get through the sorbett conflict... it's sad this is a pg novel because the kiss scenes are so hecking cute and well written :')
Btw I loved when the prime minister was scared shitless because he was supporting Edward for the king position and noticed he fucked up for the way he helped while using the expression "죽고 못 살 형제/사이(?)", like he said they couldn't live without each other/have a deep connection and that harming mc for pushing for the trial could be costing him his life
do you have the link for the novel??
I read it in Korean on the bunny site, you could still mtl it but I don't recommend because I tried mtl when I got tired of looking up words I didn't know and the translation was chopped. The Korean title is 0과 1 in case you want to look it up on bookt0k1
thank you!!
Holy shiiiii!!! THE BELLY BULGE GUYS SOMEBODY HOLD ME I FEEL DIZZY
I read till ch.6 and it's worth it! Just know that MC is a badass because he dgaf about being blackmailed lol.
where’s the raws
HOLD UP!! DMMD UPDATES!! THE YAOI HEAVENS HAVE SENT US A TOKEN OF THEIR PRESENCE
Bro was asking to get caught.. how can you not know when to go back with the leads to share and investigate them with your comrades later? Why would he get so close to the targets risking the failure of the operation
