★★★★★Oct 15, 2026

i really wanted to read the stories on this app, but i can't open an account ,there are no english translations anywhere, what am i supposed to do 😡

★★★★★Sep 12, 2026

I wanted to read it on Naver, so I opened it in my phone's browser and used the automatic translator to understand the site. I signed up, everything was fine, and then I clicked on the chapter of a novel I was interested in. It redirected me to the app page, so I downloaded the app... but I can't understand Korean. Well played lol... I think you guys need to realize that you'd grow a lot more if you offered a global service in english...
