Ate

Chapter 90 is comin up folks, and that marks the time that I will stop translating DICE because exam season is approaching. Originally, I was planning on saying farewell and leeching once the date arrived, but there’s been a change of plans.
(Dicescans pretty much led other groups to drop DICE, so I feel a certain responsibility towards DICE).
Assuming my first couple exams go well:
  • Other translator/group picks it up à Leech life activated.
  • Other translators pitch in from Ch. 91-98/Author has strangely coinciding hiatus àReturn after 8 weeks
  • No progress on DICE for 8 weeks à Grumpy about backlog, but will still return after 8 weeks



 tldr; me call quits for a while. no DICE unless help found/picked up by some other group/TL for good

      yes, it will.
      Jin means that she will come back by the time DICE is on ch98, assuming that her exams go well and if no one else has picked it up.

    Thank for your work; many months ago, I asked if it was possible to find traslated version of nowhere boy. Before you stop traslating I would like to know if you had any information about it (raws, groups who may traslate it, ways to buy it) any information will be very appreciated. Thanks :)

      I was planning on buying the raw, but my freaking Naver account "expired" or some crap like that (and you need to live in Korea to make one because it requests a Korean cell number).

      Hopefully, LINE or another group will pick it up (since LINE has Family Man and it's by the same author...?) but I can't provide any reassurance on that matter.

      I still haven't given up, persay, on Nowhere Boy. I've asked someone in Korea to send me the raws but the file I got was corrupted and messed up beyond saving. If I get to fly to Korea over the summer, I'll get my grubby hands on them raws :)

      Hey, hey, it's not over yet. Look at the second possibility… if we find a translator, things will go on normally until Jin is done with her exams.

      More on that when things are more certain.

    I read 8 weeks as 8 months and almost cried. I have finals coming up as well so 8 weeks won't be too long a wait. Good luck to everyone studying!~ :D
