Underrated novel. MC is quite spunky and charming, and not a total pushover like some MCs in novels with a similar plot premise. Well, he is a bit of a pushover in the sense that he doesn't want to get fired from his job, but honestly MC gets a lot more leeway from ML than he realizes lol. If MC was my employee and sassed me like that he'd have been fired ten times over. ML is quite indulgent and doting tbh, and ... more>>
Spoiler

is secretly pining over MC like you wouldn't believe, even though MC has zero idea and has this misconception that he's not ML's type at all.

[collapse]

Translation is good overall. Sometimes it seems like the attention to detail in translation is excellent and then once in a while the pronouns are so off that it's like... what?? 😂 <<less

This novel was my personal favorite storm of tropes - pretty shou, omegaverse, down baaaad gong, ceo x secretary, older shou, hidden identity, etc. But if I’m being honest, the execution was pretty lacking.

In my opinion, the novel tried to emulate, like, a crackish, comedic undertone (I’m assuming something like Senza Replica) but it just didn’t work super well. The MC makes all of these jokes about how he’s only in it for the money and it’s funny at first but not so much after he says it for the... more>> seventh time in one chapter. The content also becomes repetitive, with this constant push and pull between the main leads.

My biggest issue, however, is how the author deals with the whole hidden identity trope. At some point in the novel, the ML wants to meet the underwear model (the MC) in person, and the way the MC decides to go about it is like. Really dumb, imo.

Spoiler

Like he just disguises himself with a mask and a wig. The ML has seen the MC every day for eight years - I don’t know how he thought this disguise would hold up. And let’s say we suspend disbelief and say that the mask and wig worked - would the ML not recognize the MC’s voice??? I know the initial plan was not to speak (but the MC ended up talking anyway cuz his heat hit), but after the heat the MC should have definitely realized that the ML recognized him. It gets even worse when the disguise becomes just the blindfold - like bro there was no universe in which this disguise was a good idea...

[collapse]

Keep in mind that the MC is also set up to be a very intelligent person early on in the novel. So the whole identity p*rn thing really needs you to just like ignore common sense (both your own and the MC’s).

On the flip side, the smut was excellently written. I enjoyed that part a lot, it hit all my lingerie kink perfectly.

Anyway, I rate this a 3.0/5.0 stars. <<less

This was a good read. Not a fluff read tho. Translator shouldve added "psychological" in my opinion. MC POV made me sad in many chapters.
Spoiler

He's suffering from abandonment issue + depression & heavy insecurities so it was hard for him to accept ML.

Honestly... this was just filled with as many tropes as possible that was just too in-your-face. I LOVE when things are corny and trope-y (and that's why I picked this story up), but I think because this story was in first person perspective while being written so straight-foward, it just didn't work well. Because the biggest point of this story was that the MC was clearly aware of all of the ml's changed behavior that indicated that he was in love with the MC, but he just didn't connect the... more>> dots. For example, the CEO had never let anyone touch his lips until he started letting only the MC do it four years ago. And the MC makes it very clear that he acknowledges the change in behavior, but he doesn't ever think about why. Like I get it. He doesn't think he's someone who could even capture the attention of a major CEO in that way and his insecurities won't allow him to even consider that as an option yada yada, , , but like..... BRO... YOUR BOSS IS CLEARLY FLIRTING WITH YOU. Every time there's a scene with the two, the MC is always thinking "the CEO is showing clear signs of affection and flirting, but it's just a whim of his. It's not actually directed towards me".... man come the f*ck on. I'd get it if the CEO had always been like that with him when he first started working there 8 years ago, but he only started doing that stuff 4 years ago. You don't think that sudden change is odd? Hello??? If this was in 3rd person perspective and the MC was more open to the idea that he could possibly have a romance, , this would have been great. But urgh, I get it. The MC has no expectations of romance at all and wouldn't dare to even dream of being a romantic partner to the CEO because of their difference in social and career status and I get it that he has abandonment issues and doesn't want to love people because his parents had left them, so he has trauma from it, so he's refusing to even humor the idea of romance from someone as great as the CEO... but still. It's just written so straightforward and not as complex as the author wants it to be.

Urgh and omg don't get me started on the repeated thoughts of the MC. I understand that since this is from a first person perspective, we'd hear his thoughts, but dude.... we don't need to hear it repeated 8+ times in a single chapter. Like yes, we get it, the MC likes money and will only accept it if he earned it. The author REALLY wants to emphasize it and I don't know if it's to try and be funny or if it's because the author thinks that it just needs to be mentioned in every chapter. Idk this was just so irritating. I'll still give it 3 stars tho because I enjoyed the story overall for a bit before it got annoying. I've only read up to chapter 40 but I think I'm going to drop it for now. <<less

Awesome and cute but frustrating.

The ML is head over heels in love for the MC and it shoooows so much since the start ... more>>
Spoiler

the dry lips, the gentleness, the spoiling etc.

[collapse]
and at the the end we can really confirm the MC is totally blind, if not a little s*upid.

The fact he decribes himself as smart too : by speaking many langages etc. Is good but I would have liked to see it more
Spoiler

more than half of the novel is them on vacations lol

[collapse]

BUT I liked the smut and the fact the ML is a total green flag.

Translation is good apart from pronouns which change to he to her for a same character, which can be confusing.

I recommend it if you want to read a sweet novel without too much drama but it's still not amazing. <<less

It was OK, I found it didn't flow well, errors in the text and lots of issues that weren't explained well. Ads are extremely annoying too.

ML was very sweet MC is extremely dense.

MC... for this man to be so smart he was actually really dense. I found myself constantly saying "Seon Yul don't piss me off". Honestly he was really selfish and self-centered to the point where I almost dropped this a few times.

ML... deserves all the gold stars and trophies for having the patience to deal with the MC. Def top-tier alpha material.

All-in-all it was an ok read, pretty basic and tropey. Some good papapa scenes too so that's a win in my book.

Spoiler

MC have an issue with abandonment and doesn’t trust in goodwill without reason. He believes everything have a dateline or expiry date, including love. ML know everything he needed to know including why MC’s mom left him when he was a kid, but he never once openly let the MC know that he’s aware of everything and helped him in a way that MC wont notice. He knows that MC struggles to hide the fact he manifested into Omega (slow manifestation due to normally kids exposed to pheromones of their parents in order to get the traits to manifest, but MC has none. Mom left and dad was like beta or recessive Alpha?) so ML subtly help MC’s pheromones to regulate correctly but pushing his pheromones into MC (due to MC late manifestation, he relied on suppression. But sometimes his pheromones will leaked as he’s not even aware of his own pheromones due to the suppression may have some side effects on his as well. So 3 long years ML injecting his pheromones into MC so people doesn’t realise that he’s an omega. But the people in the company are aware that on MC the strong pheromones of their COE envelopes him. It’s a written rule in the secretarial office, when both MC and ML together, pretend they know nothing and see nothing otherwise they’ll have the future in the company turn black. One of the staff there transferred to TF team due to getting Coco Palm drink from MC. MC always carried 2 daily, 1 for him 1 from ML. I laughed hard when I know the reason why that person got transferred to hell team. It’s at the very ending of the novel.)

[collapse]

Spoiler

ML have been in love with MC for many years, subtly hinted that he’s interested in MC but MC’s shield is non-penetrateable. There are times that ML almost want to give up his one sided love, but when he met MC as the “secret identity model” in the hotel interview, he whiffed MC’s phenomenon, and him who have love MC for many years knows that infront of him, the model in wigs and eye covered with lace veil/blind is MC based from his pheromones. And MC’s heat about to start. ML know on that spot he had to grab the only chance and bet that his long one side love game can soon end and MC will be his at last

[collapse]

ML is what I call amazon green forest, he doted the MC on his own way. The last 2 chapters of the novel make me cried I thought it will end in bad term but

Spoiler

MC doesn’t really left him, he just submitted resignation letter, pursue his modelling career. Within 4 months doing CF and pictorial shot, he bought house and return back to the company waiting for ML in his office room. He said to ML : I paid a lot in taxes, so there’s quite a big hole in my bank account... but I bought the house. It’s a place suitable enough for two people, given how much I paid in taxes. So... Han Doha. ’ll tie your necktie properly and make fried eggs for you every morning. Doha, you bake the bread.I’ll wake you up with a kiss every morning so you won’t even feel like you’re sacrificing anything. So, will you live with me? I’ve already brought the house... You can bring the ring. ML quickly pulled out velvet box and say “looks like we can start living together today”. He then apologised to MC for one thing, I believe on how his condition now whispering to him, kind insinuating that MC is now pregnant. MC then recalled he thought his tummy turn big slightly because of not maintaining his diet and no wonder his long time friend (friend who he used to live with and the one who make him as underwear model) keep feeding him nourishment foods, supplements and run errands for him (insinuating that he doesn’t runaway on his own, but ML help him run away do his things and get his friend run at the beck of MC’s call while thinking ML doesn’t have any clues). Lastly ML said, I really worked hard, I was going to wait just four months and then come find you. Looks like I showed up right on time. Four months was my limit. Yul-ah, without you, I might’ve gone insane

Story itself maybe a 3, translation a 2. The pronouns are off ALL the time. There’s one paragraph at like 125 or 126 where in discussing one person they go from “she” to “he” no less than four times. There’s whole story is mostly told in the “I” and perspective (not a favorite, I prefer third person omniscient) except one random chapter in the end.

Now onto the story: too much s*x. I’m not puritanical at all, and honestly I prefer some level of description vs my having to guess through... more>> euphemisms, but when I say the story could have been like 106 chapters and still be steamy, I’m not joking. At about 60% of the story I started to skim because I just wanted the story plot to progress! Move it along!

I have seen and can understand why ppl were frustrated by the misunderstandings/miscommunication between the main characters but im rarely ever annoyed by a MC. They have to be particularly annoying or so poorly written that I can’t empathize with them. That wasn’t the case here.

you have to suspend your disbelief a lot in this one. For context. MC
Spoiler

ends up pregnant. Spends two months in a coma, wakes up, spends about 2wks or so living with ML. Absconds one day and then spends the next four months living away from ML, during which time, he regularly goes to the hospital to receive pheromone therapy because he’s a super ultra max gigamax dominant omega. At NO POINT do any of his healthcare providers tell him he’s pregnant. Instead they rely on his modeling manager to provide him prenatals????

there are more situations where you kind of have to hand wave certain circumstances or not think too deeply, but this one was most egregious. <<less

I really like the ML's character.

He stayed and continued to be loyal to MC even after knowing everything that MC has been through.

Glad that the author kept his character real till the very end of the series.
