I ain't the Translator but ig it must be sunbae. Sorry for the inconvenience
Would it be sunbae though in a work place?
I don't think they'd say sunbae at an office
You are absolutely right and so I went on raws and checked koreans honorifics for offices ( link is : https://www.koreanfluent.com/cross_cultural/korean_names_corporate_titles/korean_names_corporate_titles.htm) and so it says 대리// Dae Ree//The term “Dae Ree” literally means "deputy". When used as a stand-alone title without a qualifier, it is simply a rank, often lower than “Gwa Jang”(=Department / Section Head)
So substitute is the neatest English word cuz it doesn't have an accurate English word
Thanks for looking into it.
Personally I think deputy would have been a better fit
Because substitute tends to make people think of temps or part timers, and it wouldn't make sense for someone lower in office hierarchy to constantly talk down to him, and for him to take it
Yes dw we aren't offended. I explained you
I hope you understood it through the links I send you
Substitute?
That doesn't seem like the right word
Anyone else have any idea what it's supposed to be?

Question isn't meant to be condescending to the translator(s) or proofreader(s) in any way, so I hope they aren't offended by it. The word "substitute" simply wasn't making sense to me in an office setting context. And so I asked for a clarification because I was confused.
