I never such a thing when it came to manga Author, but man the manhwas Author are different breed indeed
because their distribution itself is different with manhwa. it's much more restricted and hard than korean works to get noticed. mostly mangas get printed out in magazines and tankobons, and scanlators who uploaded the scanlation has actually buy the copy, then they work themselves to translate and etc. some of them do aware of illegal uploading but they mostly don't care because the thing with japanese is, they care more about the selling point inside the country. same goes within other entertainment industry there like idol groups. if they're famous internationally but their selling inside the country is shit then it's shit. and most uploaders are international fans so it makes sense why they don't bat an eye
that's very different with manhwa, which is its selling point is international distribution. you might be aware how it's easier to enjoy manhwas these days r8
I need moaaaaaarrrrrr give me moarrr a couple who obsessive with each other
