^^ Hey,
so I'm reading KissWood, which is actually a Korean Manwha,but anyways: I couldn't find it on MAL, so how can I suggest for it to be added?

It seems that this manhwa used to be in the database but was subsequently removed, likely because it does not meet the revised database guidelines. I'm not a manga or database moderator, but it seems that since this series was published exclusively online on Naver it's considered a webcomic, and since the creator is not published elsewhere it was removed.

*merged threads since they seem to be the same issue*

I think it's odd to say a manga/manhwa doesn't meet requirements if it's published online.
