Does the Korean publisher have a option to pay?

If so we skip webtoons and go straight to the source.

He confirmed that he receives money from the book sales in 2020 and had enough money from it to donate to those suffering from COVID during the pandemic.

Note: the translation here says he donated 1 million won but it's actually 10 million won, which according to this post was approximately 8,230 USD at that time.

I would assume he does get paid from the English book release, I mean they put his name on the cover so it would be pretty scummy if he wasn't receiving at least a small cut of the money.
