I have a question about this one. I was checking one webnovel and could see that the first 25 chapters were free, but not the rest. Does that just mean I need an account (but can otherwise read for free) or is it going to be paid content?

I think it’s paid content, but I’m not 100% sure - I can never get Naver to accept my phone number to make an account. :frowning_face:

Okay, I could make an account… but I don’t understand anything, so who knows.
It seems like they use :cookie: as their internal currency and you need to spend some (probably one, considering the real money price?) to read those chapters. They are also selling a pass of some sort? I would assume that it lets you read as much as you want instead, but again, I’m just extrapolating :face_holding_back_tears:

Now I need to find out how to delete my account…
Edit: that wasn’t so bad, there were instructions in English on how to do that.
