Official summary[]
Korean[]
An F-rank Hunter.
That too, a useless, pathetic F-rank hyung who dragged down his amazing S-rank brother.
To me, who’d halfheartedly lived a disastrous life that had ended up devouring my brother’s life and making me regress, the title given was,
‘Perfect Caregiver’.
Right, this time, instead of fussing about myself, let’s quietly look after those amazing bastards.
Was what I’d thought, but the S-ranks are a little weird.[4]
English[]
Yoojin is an F-ranker overshadowed by his little brother, an S-ranker. All he does is get in his brother’s way, causing trouble wherever he goes. When a seemingly routine dungeon raid goes wrong and costs Yoojin his brother’s life, Yoojin decides to use the wish granted by clearing the dungeon to reset his timeline. The plan was to lead a quiet life from now on… but now it turns out he can help other people become S-rankers?! Maybe this is Yoojin’s chance at building his own entourage of powerful metahumans… but it may be easier said than done.[3]

F급 헌터.
그것도 잘나가는 S급 동생 발목이나 잡는 쓸모없고 찌질한 F급 형.
개판된 인생 대충 살다가 결국 동생 목숨까지 잡아먹고 회귀한 내게 주어진 칭호,
'완벽한 양육자'.
그래, 이번에는 나대지 말고 얌전히 잘난놈들 뒷바라지나 해 주자.
라고 생각했는데, S급들이 좀 이상하다.
