Why does this say Japanese when the authors are Korean ?
I've seen a lot of that lately. I think that creators of manhwa have been trying to avoid the stigma thereof by repacking their shituff as manga.

it's set to japanese for now since it's published by a japanese publisher in.. japanese.
arguments why this could count as korean is: the author and artist are korean and the novel was written in korean
which goes back to the argument that anime based on manhwa like solo leveling is still called anime
If you think this is a manhwa, report the title with the category "information to correct" with an argument why.

By that logic a film created in France, directed and written by French people, using French actors is actually an English film because an English movie company published and dubbed over it in English right?

Because anime is simply short for animation so in Japan anything animated is anime. It's here in the West that we make distinctions but Manga,Manhua, Manhwa and Webtoon are considered different.
