Hi everyone!
We have some announcements.
First, we’re still searching for a TL checker to verify the accuracy of our translations. So, that person need to know Chinese and English. The task take less time compare to translating. If you’re interest, please contact us through Contact Form.
Since we don’t have another TL checker to help out and give me more time to translate, Record of Washed Grievances is dropped. We will be focusing on SSMD and Whispers. Well, it doesn’t change much for most readers since I’m sure most of you are already reading Sian’s translations of RoWG on Nutty’s blog, but, for me, it makes a huge difference in my schedule. Wait for around two months and you will feel the real impact of today’s decision.
A glossary has been add for SSMD. I tried to make it spoiler free, but there might be some minor spoilers.
Next, there will be two recommendations this week.
First recommendation is… Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King’s Concubine (EAA). It’s quite similar to SSMD, but less dark and gory. It’s sweeter too. The main couple is a honeyed balm on my heart. You won’t be disappointed with the quality and release speed of that one since Miki, the translator of Child of Light (CoL), is doing it as her main project since CoL is completely translated since yesterday. If you can spot the chapters I TLC of EAA and comment here, I’ll release a chapter or two of SSMD tomorrow. Just a warning, those chapters might end with a huge cliffhanger. Choose wisely. Fufufu! ^_~
Second recommendation of the week is… the time-traveling drama based on Bu Bu Jing Xin by Tong Hua, Scarlet Heart: Ryeo. You will not be disappointed in the acting, the story flow and the plot. Well, I wasn’t. I might be subjective to Lee Joon Ki’s acting, but darn he is good. Don’t be afraid, it’s really not a copy of the chinese version of the drama, it’s much better. I like the fact that the romance is there and slowly built (no love at first sight), but the political context and struggles takes a lot more importance which make the main female character shined by her boldness. She also doesn’t need to be always save by her love interest, she can save herself.
