I’ll Live as a Supporting Character

Han Do-gyeom suddenly finds himself reincarnated as an E-rank hunter—a mere side character—in his own modern-fantasy novel The Shackles of a Supporting Role.

But he’s not the only one who’s crossed over. Joo Ui-ryeong, the person who stole his worldbuilding and published it as his own, has also been transported into this world!

The original creator of the story… yet doomed to live inside it as a powerless, penniless extra? Unacceptable.

Determined to rise above his fate, Do-gyeom decides to use the hidden lore and secret settings only he, the author, knows to gain strength.
To do that, he needs to form a contract with Tae Seong-yeon, the guild master of Sahyeon—one of the top three hunter guilds in Korea.

“Let’s sign a short-term contract. Within two months, I’ll find one of those things hidden in Korea and bring it to you, Mr. Tae Seong-yeon.
In return, it’s mine—so don’t even think about touching it.”

“And how can you be so sure it’s not what I’m looking for, Mr. Han Do-gyeom?”

Tae Seong-yeon accepts the deal without hesitation.
Though he takes in the prickly Do-gyeom, he’s anything but easy to handle.

“If I step in, you might have to pay with your body, Han Do-gyeom. If you’re fine with that, I’ll proceed.”
“Forget it. You’re just going to ask for something perverted again.”
“You catch on fast.”

As Seong-yeon continues to show sides completely different from the original story, Do-gyeom begins to wonder—
What secrets is this man hiding?
And will Do-gyeom truly be able to gain the power he seeks?
