Its the publisher that has forced the take down, I thought. It was authorized up to book 20 at one time, I read. The latest take down I read, the publisher was the party that was sited for the take down reason, not the Publisher on behalf of the author. I do not blame publishing companies for protecting their investment, though I do wish, if they are going to protect their investment by denying fan translations, that they take the initiative to commercially publish their property instead of just denying because they can.
Does not change the fact that its a Korean novel, or that its highly unlikely to show up here.
