오늘도 서브공은 개수작질 중
BL 소설 속 엑스트라로 빙의했을 때, 누구 옆에 붙는 게 가장 이득일까?
악역 옆에 있으면 볼똥 맞고, 메인 커플 옆에 있다간 물똥 맞는다.
그렇다면…
“왜 내 선물은 안 받지?”
오늘도 메인수에게 준 선물을 거절당한 서브공은 그의 엑스트라 비서에게 하소연한다.
“환불할까요?”
“됐어. 안 비서가 써요.”
원래 모든 걸 다 갖춰서 메인수 하나 얻지 못할 애가 서브 하기 마련이었다.
서브공이자 자신이 모시는 사장 신태오의 뒤에서 조용히 표정을 숨긴 세현은 생각했다.
개이득.
*
“우리 솔직해져 볼까?”
“알겠습니다.”
신태오도 새삼 관계에 진전이 없는 게 답답했나 보다.
“지금까지 내가 준 거 잘 썼어?”
“어차피 유진하 씨는 다른 사람한테 갑니다.”
“…….”
“상품평을 물어보시는 겁니까?”
아니 나는 메인수 이야기하는 줄 알았지. 그 질문이 아니라면…….
“좋았습니다.”
이게 원하는 답이 아닌가.
“케이크는 달고 부드러웠으며 장갑은 따뜻했습니다. 이건 정말 제가 공짜로 얻어서 하는 말이 아닌 솔직 후기입니다. 또…….”
사장님돈내산 상품평을 줄줄 읊어 가는데 신태오의 표정이 점점 더 이상해졌다.

3.5 stars.
This was the greenest of green flags to ever green flag. Shin Tae-oh is such a kind and gentle person that even when he was pursuing Yoo Jin-ha, I was still rooting for him. He spent his whole life being the second male lead and was shockingly aware of his role as the side character. It was an interesting insight into his character to see how he viewed his own existence and the hopelessness surrounding his love life. He wasn’t as confident as I would have expected, but that made him more likable.
Ahn Se-hyun was a great protagonist. He tried so hard to be detached from the story, due to his background knowledge of this being a novel, but he ultimately couldn’t. He grew too attached to his boss, Shin Tae-oh, upon seeing how stable and conscientious he was. I liked that the qualities he was attracted to were domestic things such as security and stability. It demonstrated his insecurities, which made him feel very realistic.
The reason I rated this lower was simply because there was no plot, but the characters single-handedly brought it up.

I thought ohh cute office romance… 100 pages in MC’s suddenly in heat. It’s a Korean novel so I should have expected ABO but still I was surprised… good for me I like the omegaverse. At the end even with the addition of ABO I got what I was searching for cute office Romance. I would have done things different especially the ending but I mean less drama is also fine. I recommend

English title: The Sub-Gong Is Being Rejected Today As Well
This was an OK read. That's both the good thing and bad thing about it, it's just... OK. The translation I read wasn't particularly good, so that might have affected my opinion.
Aside from the poor translation, the story itself was pretty standard. ML liked someone else and suddenly realised he actually liked the MC all along. MC was reluctant because he thought not following the original plot would ruin things, yet he never shut down the ML's advances out of sympathy. So... pretty standard, there was nothing new there.
The world had a number of side characters such that it felt more lively, but it didn't matter since everyone was 2-dimensional. They were there to fill a certain role (friend/secretary/etc) and there was nothing beyond that. I thought even a new character introduced in the side story could be removed, as he didn't fulfill any purpose. And the villain/rival character fell for MC from 1 act of kindness, which was like... sure, OK.
Fluffy vanilla romance would be the reason you read this. Because relatively speaking, it's smooth sailing with no drama or twist. The only obstacle was the pull-push dynamic the MC had. And speaking of the MC, he wanted to stay away from the villain which he considered dangerous, and yet he kept going to meet the villain alone...??? And the villain was redeemed, but it was such a lackluster redemption that I wondered... why bother? Maybe it's just to show off how good of a person the MC was.
It was about the 75% mark when I found myself thinking "it's not over yet???" because truthfully the story felt like it was just dragging along.

Una novela tranquila. Los personajes son buenos y con algunas intenciones escondidas pero manejándose siempre dentro de lo prudente (excepto uno es si estaba pndjo) no hay plot twist más que todo vemos la vida cotidiana de MC como secretario de su amado jefe y la lucha interna que debe enfrentar al no querer arruinar la obra original en la que se encuentra~
Me gustó a pesar de no ser una aficionada de novelas tranquilas, eso sí, hubiera deseado que se explote más el tema de feromonas, celo, supresores que se yo, porque al ser un mundo ABO eso deberia ser lo que destaque, de hecho a veces me olvidaba que estaba leyendo un ABO, pero bueno se pudiera decir que es un ABO en que la sociedad es más racional y no se dejan llevar por sus instintos "animales" y eso es válido.
Igual lo recomiendo, se lee de manera rápida y no aburre c:

I first MTL'd this at a pace of one chapter per day when the webtoon promo was just released. I'm so glad I finally got to finish it! I still like it just as much as I did back then. Ahn Se-hyun is practical, and Shin Tae-oh is hopelessly in love. It was funny reading Ahn Se-hyun's thoughts when he was still delivering Tae-oh's gifts to Jinha, and when he was still ruminating on his feelings. Ah, I really really like that their affections are equally matched in the end. The side stories were also really sweet!

(∿°○°)∿ ︵ ǝʌol La novela es tranquila, sin tanto drama...bueno solo algo leve con los personajes que no querían dejar ser feliz al protagonista, su pareja es todo un green flag, el inicio fue malo, pero fue algo lógico dadas las circunstancias en que se conocieron, y los extras uff...chef kiss (~￣³￣)~(⁄ ⁄>⁄ ▽ ⁄<⁄ ⁄)

estoy feliz de que shin tae-oh pudiera conocer a se-hyeon, alguien únicamente para él y viceversa ♡
