    Hello, just wanted to ask a quick question, hopefully someone out there is nice enough to answer. I am currently learning Korean and wanted to try translating a web novel that I was interested in and has since been dropped.

    So my question is where do translators get their raws? I found it on a site called joara which seems like a popular Korean web novel site, and has the novel, but I cannot register for an account (blocks my ip). How do other translators get around this? Or am I looking in the wrong place?

    Any advice/help would be greatly appreciated!
