If you don't know Lezhin, the website, is in deep trouble. They have been evading taxes, in their country and internationally, they also been keeping a large amount of money from the artist, and have told the artists that if they don't create new content, i.e. if a story is getting to long or if the ratio of free to paid chapters are unbalanced, they could lose the revenue they been earning, may increase the amount of tokens to pay for new future chapters, and their story could be dropped.
Now this a quick summary of what's been going on. If you want to read more go here

and

They give a better explanation of what's going on.
I hope this helps you you understand what's going on and why we might not see any new chapters for awhile.

So has their petition been accepted by the blue house yet or no? Whats the development on this?
I have seen some artists STILL posting and updating their work on Lezhin,i thought it was a writers' strike,but it seems some authors are still uploading.even though they are in on this petition.

So far the petition is still going on - https://www1.president.go.kr/petitions/60721?navigation=best-petitions. Many artists have this as their main form of income as well as being under a contract with Lezhin.
I don't know how the legal action and progress works is in S. Korea, so all I can do is give small updates and links of current information of what's going on.

So much for "buy the chapters, support the artist" mentality - more like "support Lezhin, hope they'll pay the artist". Seeing Grey's story made me wonder if Haribo even got paid for those chapters I bought - it was the english version after all. Also explains the shit ending.
I never liked their "buy in the dark" model, but dayum, expoiting webtoon artists like that just plain scares me. It's bad already you need to get popular (or have a really good pitch) to even start earning anything and you're heavily dependant on views you get, at the same time being forced to meet the deadlines... Then you gotta deal with the publisher ripping you off on literally anything they can, not to mention holding the rights to your comic (or at least limiting you on what you can do). I don't feel bad for paying, but I sure wish I'd donated directly instead (ofc to the translator too).
Makes you really fear the future of the remaining comics. I wish Team Killerwhale will find a way to finish Warehouse...

Like everyone who has been following the story, I wasn't to happy with the ending. BUT there's a reason for it!

Also, all the "extras" are technically the continuation of the story, it's like season 2.
I hope this helps you you understand what's going on and why she had to ended like it did.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. How are people reading this, and concluding that they shouldn't buy chapters? How does that even make sense? Artists still make a percentage of sales. Lezhin is not paying them the correct percentage. But if you steal chapters, they make no money at all. These artists are suffering. They need us now more than ever. Don't steal from them to punish Lezhin. That just hurts them even more!
![](/images/home/manga-img-anonymous-30.png)
I am too. It's really crappy, isn't it? It sucks that we want to support the author, but that Lezhin is pocketing a high percentage of what we pay that is supposed to go to authors as per their contract. I feel you on that. If I find out about other ways we can help the authors take on Lezhin, I will be sure to share. Sorry I misunderstood. I feel so bad for Haribo.

hey no worries, it's good you had me clear it up in case others misunderstood. i completely agree with you i want to pay the artist not the site. sure they can have a portion for hosting but i'm so disappointed how they treat their artists and get away with it. the weekly deadline must be SO freaking stressful, especially for artists who haven't yet made it

From manhwa's I've read, on here and other places, it takes many weeks or months to have the next chapter up, of course everyone is busy and what not. But in one week we're already caught up!!!
The translator's are awesome!!! Spending time to translate it for all of us to read, enjoy, and discuss. Keep up the awesome work!!! ( ´ ∀ `)ノ~ ♡

Spoilers Σ(っ°Д °;)っ
From what it looks like, the guys broke in to what Sungho is doing and taking pictures to she. They see Dohyun on the bed chained and naked, they comment about the situation. Sungho is just focus on the broken lock. Just as the guys leave, the one with the hoodie ask about what they should do with the captive person. I think the other said leave me, I do t care, or we'll take care of it later. Dohyun shock charge's towards them, since he all ready broke his chain, crashing into one of them. The one with baseball hat, gets a cut, similar to Sunghos scar, from the broken lock.
Since I don't read Chinese, it's hard to tell what everyone is saying.
I think Dohyun was angry and shocked, making him charge at them and trying to grab the ax, the baseball hat guy had. I feel during his whole ordealhe developed Stockholm Syndrome. Though none of the previous chapters show any hint of that. I just find it weird that he didn't just run out of the warehouse or begged the men to help him.
What do you guys think? (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜
Also Sungho, is Savage AF. Nothing can get in the way of him protecting Dohyun.

What do you mean?
![](/images/home/manga-img-anonymous-30.png)
But we couldn't read it, expect we are a member and get some coins :(
![](/images/home/manga-img-anonymous-30.png)
It is not hard to get coin... lezhin sometime has sales and promotion to get free coins, you just need to be patience and actively follow their news or event. But I understand if you don't want to do that..so you just have to wait patiently to read it here
