Plagiarism On Reaching For You
Apparently I just found out that someone has been plagiarizing my story. Not in this website, but on Wattpad. You can find the link here (yeah, I have enough time to give link) ===> https://www.wattpad.com/story/87027817-fic-d%E1%BB%8Bch-chi%E1%BA%BFm-%C4%91o%E1%BA%A1t
Now listen, I don't care if it's a translation or a spin-off or whatever, but this is just truely a plagiarism. I appreciate the love you give to my story and you like it, thank you, but please don't plagiarize it. If you want to translate it in your own language, at least reach me out first. PM me here through AFF, email or whatever things you can do to contact me. but don't do it behind my back like a sneaky cat.
You guys read the FAQ on AFF before signing up right? No? Then I'll give you the start: FAQ
I feel extremely just .... pissed. That story is my own spin-off from the movie itself. Although it's a spin-off/based on, almost some of the scenesare ENTIRELY mine. I only took on the inspiration from the movie and also using the movie's theme. But the story; the characters' death, Seungri, Daesung, Chanwoo, Kim Haneul the psychic, the ghsot fo the girl and all the scenes that don't have in the movie, all is mine. i created them myself using my brain, my passion and sacrificing my time for it. But some of you took the advantage by just copying it and posting it somewhere else I don't even know ......
And I don't know how I found out about that thing but now I did. And I am not happy. I have been struggling with a very hard and confusing assignment right now, an unfinished workloads given to me, the stuck on studying in the middle of 1:40 AM, problems of life on my own and I am very not happy to know about this thing.
I am so sad, really and this action is not right.
I have already reached out to the person posting that story in wattpad. If you are in case reading this, PM me, we will talk nicely. But if you don't reach me out in the nearest time, I'll report you. I want to know who are you. If you can translate it and posted it to wattpad that means you re one of the readers right? that subscribed to me?
Face me, I am angry but still not in rage. We still can talk nicely.
And to others, please just don't do the same thing to other authors. Show some respect on their works, you think we want to write for fun only? Just because others write so yeah we will write to? No, h*ll no. This is our life dedication thing. Only writers understand what I mean. If not, we won't be spending our time writing sh*ts that don't even know people are going to read or not, squeezing our brain hard and all just to please you guys or whatever. That is so not the reason why we write ok? *the moment I curse, that means I am very pissed don't get me to use the f word that is really bad*
I hope this message reach everyone, not on the readers of RFY but also other people.
Have a nice day.
