does this have a novel??

Since there's no english translation, there not really an "official" title but i assume it's the same as the webtoon, just type "The moon-painting Alchemist novel"
Here's the link on ridibook, if you'd like to try to use auto translation (or are familiar with korean idk) : https://ridibooks.com/books/3542000177

mga boang. y'all don't want the romance between jiwoo and jiyoung but WANT JIWOO TO BE GAY? STFU

lakaw ingna ninyo ang author nga dili na sila, kay panan-aw ninyo siblings silang duha. funny lang, kay you claimed na dugay naka ka basa ani pero dili ka aware nga first meet palang nila naa nay something si jiwoo kay jiyoung. if gusto ninyo nga katong isa ka babae nga white and black ang makadayonan ni jiwoo, then naboang nag samot hahahah kato may klaro nga one sided. hahahaha. jokerist

i get it, but people should also not force this story to be gay, you know what i mean? they hate jiwoo x jiyoung but badly want jiwoo x other guys. hating the romance between jiwoo and jiyoung (because she's a woman) but badly want jiwoo to be shipped with other guys such as kayden. it's ridiculous atp.

like i do read bl and yaois naman pero sana bl fans should calm down, their reason against jiwoo and jiyoung's romance is "too young" daw si jiwoo when in fact kayden himself told jiwoo diba na not really malaki yung age gap nilang dalawa. like they're against it, pero when it comes to jiwoo x kayden na ship go na go? haler.

Di naman nila finoforce yung story na maging gay, cause never naman sya magiiba. I think sinasabi lang nila ung opinion nila na for them, mas maganda ung ibang ship. For me naman, same lang age ni Kayden and Jiyoung pero konting bata si Jiyoung baka mga 3-4 years. Di naman din na-specify sa story kung ano ages nila so wala naman problema sa shippings. Same din naman na tinuturuan ni Kayden at Jiyoung si Jiwoo. Pero mali parin ung hating the ship kase kapag sinabihan ng ganyan ship mo iccriticize din ung ibang ship. Wala naman din magagawa ung iba kung sila na magkakatuluyan, it's obvious already and may hints na so let's let them enjoy their ship until it lasts.
that age gap really bothers me
Not to justify or anything but they’re pretty much the same age right now.
FL was around 7 years older than him when she died and woke up 7years later, so technically she’s the same age as him rn.
Still creepy bc she kinda raised him and all.
wth. i literally wrote a paragraph abt why this story is kinda creepy for me, but it's just the "that age gap rlly bothers me" that is posted. does this instances rlly happen???
yeye, that's why I was kinda glad that she died so that they'll be in the same age. it would be rlly disgusting if she didn't die and remain as his maid and as the fl ಠ ʖ ಠ
