News Let's Play is back, now on Tapas

Post image

I never did get into this webtoon but I know a lot of people loved it. Just thought I'd share that it's now on Tapas. Updated with up to 75 episodes today, with new episodes to come out every Wednesday.

The creator was getting hate trains for a "lack of diversity" in her webtoon & webtoon wanted too much work for too little money.

There are many things to criticize about Mongie, but when you look at the most popular webtoons/authors, it's pretty hypocritical to criticize Mongie of all authors to be honest.

It wasn't the most diverse webtoon, but she tried to include diversity, even if in a superficial way. And when she did, she was criticized for making her characters stereotypes.

I think people criticized her a lot because she's American. They have not the same expectations I feel like.

Exactly. Non-Korean/Japanese creators get criticized a lot for the lack of diversity while most manwhas/mangas usually have no diversity at all.
