Why tf she’s acting like this? She didn’t even let them explain. If they start acting harmless then they will be dead. she’s so stupid and annoying at this point.
I don’t think her reaction is entirely at fault here. I believe this is a normal reaction in some situations. Before being able to accept, she went thru the first stage of denial. She has the right to her feelings of being shocked, especially since she tried so hard to get along with them and change the flow of the story. We can see the regret in her eyes when she involuntarily slaps Ein hand away. Tho she could have approached this a better way at least she eventually let Ein explain himself at the end. Which means she didn’t give up on them. She just needed the space to process everything. I just hope she sees that they were just protecting her in their own dark ways and that it was not for no reason.
Calling the author racist even tho she hasn’t done anything like that. She just stood up for herself and said to not upload illegal translations bc she’s already going through a lot. But you guys have the audacity to say shit. I also read from mangago but when the author desperately said not to read it illegally then just stop. Why are you justifying your actions mfs? Calling her racist? Are you even in your right mind? When things don’t go your way then you started bullying her? She just said to not do any illegal translations. What’s wrong about it? It’s her right. She can say this. she has to pay bills. She’s already in debt and you guys are the worst human beings in this world. F*ck y’all insensitive brats.
People like you are polluting this world.
maybe you don’t mind it, but many other people did. the term “illegal aliens” shouldn’t have been used at all for it is a very offensive term. if they wanted to address the illegal readers, they should of used “illegal readers” instead because now that they used “illegal aliens” it paints them as racist which is why people aren’t giving them any mercy in this situation

Here's the proof
Even Lez*in apologized for some of there veeerrry questionable tweets
Illegal aliens is racist ? To who? Racist to aliens? And first of all I would like to believe sth I’ve seen. Can you send me the link to that tweet? A pic ? Anything?? The proof ? Or is it something someone said that author said this and everyone started freaking out? Btw ‘Someone stole my valuable things and its a source of my living. How am I going to pay bills and live? They’re freaking aliens’ I guess this statement is racist now.

I'm sorry but you sound ignorant about the word. Please educate yourself with the history on why that word is offensive. Some even tweeted that the word is offensive.
Okay, so let's break it down, mainly the offensive part is "Aliens" meaning that its strange, that it doesn't belong there, and basically that its a different species, its basically ALIENATING (no pun intended) a group of people, making them seem less human in a sense, i dont know if this is getting across right.
yes the term “illegal aliens” is a very racist terms which means “someone who entered a country unlawfully” for example this term was used a lot towards latinos who were trying to enter the US for a better life. and for the link, someone just sent it above so thank you to whoever sent it. im just saying that bc of the author’s choice of words, they are now painted as racist like damn bruh
Uhh? Something that isn’t discriminatory towards Latin people?? Personally, I don’t care if you don’t mind it. I do mind it, especially when the author was told about the negative connotations the word ALIENS (a word used to shame Hispanics in America) and still decided to use it. A trash person, not gonna pay a single cent but thank you my Darling/Sweetheart/Love/Baby! シ
It's offensive bc the term "ILLEGAL ALIENS" is degrading to us LATINOS. Even if they didn't mean to use it with the intention of being racist, it's still offensive. People even told her to stop using the term all together, yet she persisted to use it. That's why most people were upset. What did you not get?
I'm not critizing her taking off her work. She has the right to do so like I have the right to critisize her poor choice of words. It's unprofessional to both Lezhin (for allowing and as well supporting it to happen + not protecting their author) as well as the author (less so)
Let me repeat, the world Illegal aliens is a crude word that is degrading. Why out of all the terms she used, why would she chose that? Isn't there an unharmful alternative? And why is she assuming that the people who stole her works are illegal immigrants?
I honestly had no idea that there’s something like this because I’m not from america that’s why I had no idea that there’s a thing like this. All I know is that illegal immigrants were called as illegal aliens. Because I have almost no knowledge of the history behind this ‘ illegal aliens’ thing that’s why I’m not gonna debate on this. But if what you said is the truth then I can see why people started bullying her. It still doesn’t define for what illegal readers and scan do. Secondly, the author tweeted something related to about all of this racist this. There was this girl, who was speaking in Spanish and was explaining about what happened and what it meant. Obviously I can’t understand Spanish so idk what she was saying but check that and also tell me as well.
you don’t have to be from america to know that this term is racist and very degrading especially to us latinos. yes i understand that there is no justification for what illegal readers/scanners do, but that doesn’t give the right for the author to use offensive terms. as for the video on twitter, the author has it pinned with a translation so it can be viewed from there
The girl is basically saying that she purchase the chapters legally at lezhin and translates it to spanish for the spanish readers since there is no spanish translations illegally.
The tiktok itself is gone as well as the social media accounts of the girl is gone as well.
Lets agree that both people in the sides are wrong. She said some dumb things and i dont agree how she is acting but she has the right to be angry at the illegal for harrassing her.
Ithe way that the third party were trolling her and other authors (who joined in) was unbelievable. The H scanlation group wasn't the one harrassing YD and they actually told their fan to shut up and leave YD alone after she mention their FB post. They, along other translator groups have locked their fan pages. There seems to be a third party that keep harrassing YD and snitching on the translators to make the situation worse for unknown reason. Both YD supporters in Vietnam and the fans of the scanlation groups are doing their best to track down and report the harrassers
Either that or this shit show is cause by people who hold grudges against the translator teams and want them to get sued
I’m sorry if it offended you that I had no idea what illegal aliens meant but I’m not from America and I’m from Asia so there was no way I could know about this offensive term. But yes I get why this happened. I’m sorry that such term was used and I hope it wasn’t really directed towards you or any Hispanic. I’m truly sorry and I wholeheartedly hope that it wasn’t meant that. Also I just saw the translation of that girl’s video and also saw that person who translated it was obviously spanish. What I don’t understand is how ‘if you don’t have money don’t read it, if you don’t understand the language, don’t read it illegally’ is offensive? And when did any author ever said that if you’re latino don’t read the manhwas? O.o???? Was that her way to trigger people so that people do things like this? Cuz I’ve seen so many latinos commenting on authors tweets and posts on insta that they read legally and try to understand the english. That they’re learning English to read it. Plus a lot of Latinos and other people people who can’t understand English or Korean, use apps to translate it.
What she said was the way to trigger people to hate on author ? Plus I saw a tweet where that person had translated 19 chapters into 8 different languages and told the author to upload new chapter fast so they can translate it and put it on illegal websites. Honestly if I was the author I don’t know what I would had done. After reading all the tweets and seeing things from both prospectives and seeing many Latinos supporting author, I can finally understand what’s going on and that’s honestly disturbing.
That’s it. I’m done explaining this. I never knew that you have to explain such basic things.
Toxic. So toxic. I just hope that author gets well soon and I hope that she will be able to pay all the debt. This will always be a mystery to me that do people don’t understand what depression is because they’ve never seen people with actual depression or they’re just insensitive? For me, I’ve seen many people with depression and their condition is vv heart breaking. But on a second note, I just remembered an idiom which truly suits this situation cuz I’ve been explaining all of this, it’s like ‘to cast pearls before swines’ I’ve been reminded of this. It’s stupid to explain basic human morals to someone who don’t want to accept their fault. People saying that they read illegally no matter what you do and saying shit like it’s not good and blah blah. Its utterly stupid to explain basic human morals and ethics to these people. I’m done with this. Have a good day.
Yes,
I symphatize for the author i truly do. I want to just point out things that can be changed. Lezhin apologized already, which means they admitted they did wrong with how they handle the situation. And nobody told you that if you don’t have money don’t read it, if you don’t understand the language, don’t read it illegally’ is offensive. We are just POINTING out that her choice of words in the specific tweets (illegal aliens) and the usage of different language (deleted tweets) is terrible lets admit to that. NOBODY is saying that we think the girl is right to illegallu translate the manhwa. We are just critizing her CHOICE of WORDS. Is it wrong to right someone?
If only this wasnt blown up out of the proportions. Im just saying a different perspective of a legal user (from Webtoons tho) from Spain. I never read her stories before but i heard this in twitter. . There is no white side or black side but only gray side. I hope both sides coexist so we do not have any problem.
Best wishes for the author.
I see..... i try so hard to be polite to that person even though thry way of replying to me earlier is very immaturr and hurtful like they did not read the discussion first before commenting bunch of things that deviate to what i wanted to speak of....
Thank you for all who get what im trying to say.
oh stfu an author calling out people STEALING HER WORK has no correlation to racist americans using that term and you know it. She did not say that targeted towards latinos, she said it to ILLEGAL READERS OF ALL COUNTRIES INCLUDING HER OWN. if she were to use that to describe latinos then that is an issue but she didn’t, you’re all just reaching to make yourselves feel better about the fact tht you are all affecting this poor authors mental well being
Just wanted to chime in cause Im bored and waiting for the popcorn, but she should have used "illegal readers" cause "illegal aliens" would mean people are crossing borders into her country to steal her work but you, me and the rest of the people reading these works on "illegal sites" aren't crossing borders; we are reading on the internet in whatever country we are from. So point is she shouldnt have used the term at all ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍
she doesn’t speak English. I honestly think she used the word alien it as an mere insult rather than all this deep meaning everyone in this thread is putting into it. Like what’s with the western/American context? she probably put the word ‘foreign’ into some online translator and got the word alien. Why do people give so much meaning to a word.
But if she put foreign into the translator she’s still trying to be rude to foreign people. I agree she just should’ve put illegal readers. Illegal aliens is a bit intense. Even if she doesn’t associate it with Latinos she’s still making an effort to be offensive to foreigners. Obviously it’s understandable she’s angry but using a general term for foreigners instead of singling out the illegal readers is uncalled for.
auto-translate cannot translate an exact phrase like so if the one who twits it out didn't intend to say this. This is Trump's phrase, and the author is lucky that most of her readers are too obsessed over manhwa than what is actually happening around the world.
I understand her anger over pirating, but she should not attack other innocent millions of people (which have nothing to do with this) just because she's angry.
She cannot kill someone just because she feels like she has been wronged by others. It's illegal, same with being racist as well. She's lucky that she is living in Korea right now and not another country.
Dear uploader, I think you don’t know but the author clearly said to not update this manhwa on illegal websites. Now she’s on her way to prepare a lawsuit and sue this site. When she said to not upload this on any illegal website then just stop because this site is illegal and no one wants this whole site to be removed just bc of a single manhwa. Why risking the whole site for 1 single manhwa?
I'm just a spectator here and only come by every few weeks for the drama in the comment section, so if anybody has actually said they uploaded the current chapter you can ignore everything I write now (also sorry for the weird wording, but when I use certain words my comments tend to get removed automatically).
But I don't think there is an uploader. This site takes chapters from other sites automatically if they haven't already been updated by someone. I think this is the case here as well since there is neither a name nor "anonymous" next to the chapter. So asking the uploader to stop is probably not going to do anything.
AM I DREAMING??? IS THIS FR??? AFTER TWO YEARSSS ITSS BACKKKK!!!!!
