Wait, has there ever been talk of it moving to another app? I feel like I saw some rumor on Twitter a while back, but it might have just been about another similar BL title. Contracts can expire, but for something as big as 'Jinx', I'd assume Lezhin has locked it down for the long haul.
It's always good to follow the creator or the official Lezhin account for any announcements. But as of now, and for the foreseeable future, that's your definitive destination.

Interesting you ask about Webtoon specifically. The Webtoon app does have an 'Originals' section with plenty of BL, but 'Jinx' isn't one of them. Their model is different, often using a fast-pass system where the latest episodes are paid, but older ones become free. If 'Jinx' were on Webtoon, side stories might follow that pattern.
But since it's not, you're out of luck on that front. It's crucial to distinguish between different publishers. Always check the copyright page at the start of a series; it'll tell you which company holds the license. For 'Jinx', it's Lezhin Comics all the way. So directing your search there, even if it's not for free content, is the only official path.

Confirmed, it's a Lezhin original. The release isn't weekly like some mainstream webtoons; it's more irregular, which can be frustrating. But the episodes are usually longer and packed with detail, so I don't mind the wait as much.
I'd suggest reading the spin-off, 'Jinx: Omegaverse,' as well, as it provides some interesting background. It's also on Lezhin. The fandom is very active on social media, dissecting every new chapter, so being on the official release schedule lets you participate in those conversations without fear of spoilers from future unofficial releases.

The emotional payoff of a long webtoon only works if you have the full narrative. Reading 'Jinx' piecemeal with gaps in translation would have ruined the slow-burn tension. Now that it's fully available, I can recommend it as a complete experience. The character development, however controversial, needs the full arc to be understood. You can't judge the first act without the resolution. So yes, its completeness is essential to its value as a story, not just as a titillating read.

My simple take: Google 'Jinx manhwa official English'. The first few non-ad results will be the legal sources. Anything with a weird URL or a barrage of pop-up ads is not it.

Think about it from a business perspective. Platforms like Webtoon want to be available to as wide an audience as possible, including teens. Hosting explicitly uncensored BL would get them kicked off app stores, destroying their business. So they can't, even if they wanted to. The uncensored content is therefore monetized through a separate channel that doesn't rely on those app stores. It's not a conspiracy; it's just how the digital content market is regulated. For readers, it means maintaining two separate support methods: one for the censored serialization (which helps with discovery) and one for the uncensored material (which supports the artist's vision and income).

After skimming through both, my verdict is: identical twins wearing slightly different clothes. One is dressed for a quick digital outing (webtoon), the other is dressed up for a keepsake photo (print). Their personality, history, and future are the same.

My friend bought the Korean physical volumes and uses a photo translation app on her phone. It's a ridiculous amount of effort, but she says it's worth it. I don't have that kind of patience. I'm just in a perpetual state of waiting for a sane digital option to appear.

Tappytoon also has it! I've seen some confusion about this because Lezhin is the primary publisher, but Tappytoon does have an official license for certain regions. It's always good to double-check which platform services your location. Their pricing model is similar, using a 'coin' or 'ink' system to unlock episodes.
Personally, I prefer Tappytoon's app interface a tiny bit more—it feels a little smoother. But content-wise, it's the same great translation. If you have an account on both, maybe compare which one has a better discount running when you decide to dive in.
