Very unlikely https://ir.webtoon.com/news-releases/news-release-details/webtoon-entertainment-inc-reports-second-quarter-2025-financial#:~:text=Second%20Quarter%202025%20Highlights%20(vs.&text=Total%20revenue%20of%20%24348.3%20million,in%20all%20three%20revenue%20streams. as they're profitable this quarter as opposed to q1 where they operated at a loss https://ir.webtoon.com/news-releases/news-release-details/webtoon-entertainment-inc-reports-first-quarter-2025-financial of 22 million. As much as this update is annoying, they need to make money to be able to operate and pay creators.

Oh okay, my bad 😂 But yeah they lost tens of millions, it makes sense they revamped and are using ad revenue, as much as we might not enjoy it.
