Do you know what Murim is??

so  the different is? 

Korean term for martial artist right?
First time know that from Volcanic Age 

It's the same as Wulin in chinese, but in korean, it means "martial forest" or something?

Though usually with the chinese novels you hear about JiangHu instead of Wulin most of the time.


Well I read korean manwha before I even read any chinese webnovels so it might not really be that much of common knowledge.


Anyway, why not just make a footnote to explain what Murim is/means? And even if a reader doesn't have preexisting knowledge they'll find out what Murim means as they read the story. 

I believe it's Korean? And is basically a martial artist underworld. Some novels depict it more fantasy based, but most depict it kind of gangster-ish but with martial artists and sects instead. The Breaker is a good example of this. 

Jianghu/kangho and wulin/murim are NOT interchangeable terms; they're not the same thing. 

I didn't know about it till now I guess.

Not really a martial artist fan. 

Yes 

Who and how did he/she misuse it?

Among the mountain Chinese wuxia and military novels plus other media I've consumed for almost 2 decades, I've never seen any author use the terms incorrectly. That includes fiction written before wulin even existed as a term.
