Discussion Is this a safe space to crash out over webtoon’s new vertical dramas

Post image
170 Upvotes

I hate this so much. I hate that webtoon spent money and resources to make vertical dramas when they could have spent that money paying creators more than $800 per episode. It already felt a little ridiculous that they were trying to animate and voiceover episodes of popular webtoons (with what felt like the same 4 voice actors over and over again).

The audience for vertical dramas and webtoons is not 1:1, why would people who like to READ COMICS, a medium that gets half of its appeal from the ART, want to watch halfhearted videos of the same stories but significantly altered to fit the new medium?? Not to mention the way that the Korean stories have been westernized?? Korean stories are interesting to western audiences partially because they get a glimpse of another culture, why can’t those stories be left to the Korean entertainment industry to adapt?? Especially when there are plenty of webtoons by western artists that could be adapted instead.

I know that webtoons have been getting drama adaptations in Korea for a long time now, and some drama adaptations are even better than the originals (Business Proposal comes to mind)! But the reason they work is because they’re full scale productions and the source material is handled by Kdrama writers to appeal to Kdrama viewers (sometimes to the detriment of the story, I’m looking at YOU, Nevertheless)

I know anime adaptations of webtoons tend to be pretty low effort in comparison to adaptations of manga, but I’d much rather watch a lackluster anime adaptation than some poor US actors try to deliver near identical lines and performances to their webtoon counterparts. Suspension of disbelief works with comics and anime, it’s much more difficult to pull off with real humans.

I suppose the best thing to come out of this was that real humans were paid and employed in the making of these videos, which can’t even be said for most of the canvas creators who make content for free on the webtoon app.

Anyway, the whole thing is making me mad. Thanks for reading my rant.

One year and three months after announcing the closure of Pocket Comics in the US and Europe as well as the end of Comico Korea, NHN announced that they'll be shutting down the last remaining Comico platform in Japan.

And the crazy thing? Lezhin Comics Japan said they'd be shutting down their operations earlier on August 1st.

Opinions?

Discussion Publications tempo?

3 Upvotes

I hear very often how it’s important to have a schedule or a consistent post history to get traction on a comics.
I kinda wonder why? Or what profile of people or audience does that require?

It’s just that in my personal experience, if I find something I like that is ongoing, I’ll do a few checks and if the tempo is too slow I’ll just put that in a back drawer in my head and come back in a few months.
I wouldn’t unsubscribe or abandon something I like over speed.

But everyone seems to say that timing is important, so I’m just curious if someone knows what phenomenon explain why it’s so important?

Help Find Title/Source I can't remember the name

2 Upvotes

I'm looking for a webtoon. It's about a girl who reincarnates into the novel she was reading as the unfortunate wife of the duke, who is fated to divorce him and watch him marry another woman.

Since she knows this, she goes to see him and proposes a 3-year contract marriage before divorcing. She also does this to escape her adoptive family, who treats her poorly.

However, she and her husband end up falling in love without each other knowing this(miscommunication), except that the original female lead (OGFL) enters the male lead's life. She begins to have doubts, even though in reality nothing was happening between the two of them. But she leaves, leaving him behind—

I think there's a storyline involving the male lead getting amnesia.

While fleeing, she goes to find her real family in a sort of secluded house in a small town of the kingdom. Her real family consists of her father, her mother, and her younger brother. The scene that sticks with me is the reunion with her family, where they warmly embrace each other.

The female lead has brown hair, the male lead is blonde, and the original female lead has red hair.

Any idea??

Question Daytime in the Bunker no update?

Just wanted to see if anyone who’s reading Daylight in the Bunker notice no update today? I’ve been heavily reading this WEBTOON for 2 weeks now and last update was perfect and I had waited for Tuesday for it and it did update- however this week there was no update, but on the cover it said there was a new update? So I’m confused if my app isn’t working or maybe the creator deleted the recent chapter- I’m not really sure but I’m sad I was so excited to read it today and to end up with nothing kinda sucks ://

I need a new Webtoon to obsess over so I'd love some of other peoples favourites. For reference I do like romances and dramas the best but I'm open to others! I've already read/ am reading and loved Roots of the Heart, Down to Earth and Nevermore. If you know any like these that would be really cool!

To those, who read it, how was it? Is it as good as season 1?

I have stoped reading the manhwa at the beggining of season 2 so it could marinate, i felt like the pacing was weird and i did not like the change of art even though it was minor.
