Emergency!
How should I put it, my recent broadcasts have been incredibly peaceful.
The auction broadcast is on Saturday, and that’s when the director and coach will be decided.
Until then, all I had to do was just play games.
– Merk’s 3rd zone opened
– Let’s go go go go go
– Raid let’s go go go
– Weapon Enhancement let’s go go go
First, I’d thoroughly enjoy everything Merk had to offer.
When I got somewhat tired of playing Merk, I’d immediately jump into the Canyon.
– But his mechanics are fucking good
– He’s really going on a winning streak
– He’ll reach Gold soon, right?
– No way, he’s getting 11+ kills every game lol isn’t this basically smurfing?
– Is this really that Mungi from back then?
– But his teammates are really dragging him down, there’s always one or two people leaving each game lol and the support throws
– They say climbing with ADC in low tiers isn’t great though
I deliberately didn’t play much Canyon.
It might be different if I proved myself in tournaments and then played a lot of Canyon.
But my current viewers were gathered based on that other game.
If I played games like Canyon that already have a solid established viewer base, they’d leave quickly.
In fact.
[Current Viewer Count: 211]
Once I started playing Canyon, the viewer count that had reached close to 900 dropped rapidly.
Clearly, my broadcast couldn’t provide entertainment in the Canyon category yet.
Actually, for Canyon, you either need Big Corporation Members to make it funny, or you need to be somewhat skilled.
While my current skill might be decent, my tier is low and my broadcast weight class is also low.
So only people who came purely to watch me would stick around.
‘Still, it’s fortunate that it’s above my subscriber count.’
That was at least somewhat reassuring.
But how should I put it, it lacked impact.
‘For Canyon… if I get successfully auctioned to a Major Corporation, we’ll do training camps and such, so maybe I’ll start getting real influx from then.’
But they’ll probably stream under the Major Corporation’s broadcast.
Even if I use my own computer during the training camp, would the influx really increase dramatically?
While my thoughts were getting complicated.
> Mungi, this is Kim Gonggong.
> Is that one-day date we set as an auction condition possibly available on Friday?
> While trying to coordinate schedules, it suddenly got moved up way earlier ㅠㅠ
> If it’s not possible, please feel free to let me know and I’ll try to arrange a different time
An opportunity to finally get some fresh air had arrived.
‘Friday means the day after tomorrow.’
A one-day date.
< I’m free on Friday.
> Thank you so much ㅠㅠ
> That one-day date will take place on the Itaewon – Hannam line, and it’s scheduled for 2 hours
> We’ll plan the course for you!
> But if it’s okay with you, going over 2 hours is fine too!
> Since it’s one-day date content, I’ll be following along to film.
< I’m aware of it, and I also know about it to some extent from watching Kim Gonggong’s YouTube ㅎㅎ!!!
> Wow… You’re the best. Then I’ll see you Friday at 1 PM, Itaewon Station Exit 2!
I’m looking forward to it.
Of course, before that.
< I’m going on Kim Gonggong’s one-day date content on Friday
< Location is Itaewon – Hannam
> Hmm
> Itaewon – Hannam doesn’t match the vibe of the clothes I’ve given you so far
> I’ll send something by express delivery tomorrow, so wear that
> Use the perfume from setup number 2
< Yes
I should get a wardrobe check from our Ttaranta Game Teacher too.
+++++
12:30 PM, Itaewon Station Exit 2.
“Brothers, today I’ve secured a premium guest! A big one-day date is coming!”
– What’s with that way of talking? lololololol
– Why are you suddenly talking like an old-school host
– Something good happen today?
– We already know everything but pretending not to is hard
– But you don’t know who the other person is, you just know it’s Mungi
– Hahahahahahahaha
– Ah, spoilers
– Please ban spoilers ㅠㅠ
– Hahaha who doesn’t know you’re being vague
There, Kim Gonggong stood with his phone for outdoor broadcasting turned on, accompanied by a cameraman who also served as his editor.
“I’ll interview the guests as they arrive, so Mungi will probably come first, right?”
Kim Gonggong wondered if he would really arrive exactly on time even for an outdoor meeting.
– He’ll definitely come right on time
– Be grateful he’s not late
– Don’t you know Mungi’s personality? He never comes early
– That’s crazy Teto thinking it’s not manly enough
“Hey, what are you guys… why are you praising Mungi so much in my broadcast, take my side a little. Right, Kim Gonggong will probably come early, would this be better?”
– Please give flowers
– Hahahahahahaha
– That’s ridiculous
– I hope that bastard Mungi does cosplay at places like AGF later
– Why would you say that in Kim Gonggong’s room
– Hahahahahaha
– Blatant fangirling lololololol
Looking at the viewers’ reactions, I thought, could it be?
And indeed, at 12:50.
10 minutes before the promised time.
“Ah, I’m a bit late because I was nervous. Sorry.”
– Huh
– What
– For real?
– Holy shit
Jjining appeared first at Exit 2.
Neatly fitting jeans, comfortable-looking sneakers, and a blouse with flowers that showed a hint of cleavage.
And completing it all perfectly was her delicate cat-like face.
– Wow
– Damn
– She’s ridiculously pretty lol
– Who was it that once had this Jjining as a daughter?
– Great Mun Dragon
– We behold the winter flower of Yoran Garden
– Shivering/trembling
– She’s definitely a legendary guest
– Wow, is that Jjining?
– I really didn’t know about Jjining
– So today’s date is Mungi X Jjining? Legendary
– Good-looking men and women wow
– What era are you from with that “good man, good woman” talk lol
– But there’s no other way to describe it.
As soon as Jjining’s appearance appeared on the broadcast screen, all the viewers were shocked.
Her real appearance had been exposed quite a bit, so everyone had some idea.
But they never imagined it would be to this extent.
“Jjining, no… your hair, makeup, and coordination are insane, it’s almost bridal makeup level?”
“Ah, actually… I went to… a salon. Got up early in the morning…”
“This is really nice? Wow… how should I put this? Natural chic? Hush perm? Your charm is seriously unreal!”
“Hehe, it’s a date… well, since it’s such a public date, I put some effort into it!”
As soon as Jjining’s cheerful response ended, the two checked the time as if they had made a promise.
Exactly 1 minute before 1 o’clock.
Usually when you agree to meet at 1, someone would come early.
What on earth was going on?
“Mungi has arrived!”
Mungi appeared exactly on time for their appointment.
“Wow.”
“Heh.”
Kim Gonggong and Jjining unconsciously let out gasps of admiration as soon as they saw Mungi coming out of Exit 2.
They had actually seen him once before, and his good looks were just such an obvious, well-known fact.
So they thought there wouldn’t be much excitement this time.
But.
‘…Wow, handsome people just feel fresh and interesting no matter how often you see them.’
How should they describe what he was showing them now?
He was one level ahead of last time, no, at least three levels ahead.
But it made sense.
Back then it was a Teddy Bear T-shirt, and now it was a complete Boyfriend Look.
– But he does dress well, though something feels off
– Hmm
– Agreed
– It’s the textbook Boyfriend Look but feels like something you could see anywhere?
– Because the completion of fashion is the face
– Ah
– Why do you think “look” in Boyfriend Look is spelled “look”? It’s not about the clothes being important, but looking like a boyfriend is the hack?
– Hahahahahahaha
– When a guy you want as your boyfriend, a good-looking guy, wears clothes, that becomes boyfriend fashion ㅠㅠ
– A sad truth has emerged
“Wow… But Mungi, I really felt this during that group meeting content too, but you really dress well? Are you usually very interested in fashion?”
“Ah, well I… haha, I have good people around me so I’m getting some benefits.”
“Oh… good people, good connections, good opportunities?”
“Huh?”
“Haha, never mind.”
– Ugh lol
– Breaking the mood is definitely our Gong Gong
– He just totally killed the vibe
– Still, it’s better to break the awkwardness like this in the beginning
– For real
– Forced to date < We got tied together by this hahaha, it might be awkward for both of us
With Kim Gonggong setting the mood to some extent like that.
He lightly introduced the schedule before they began their one-day date in earnest.
“Like a dating observation program, we’ll just film without any commentary. We’ve already gotten cooperation from the restaurant and cafe, so you can just head over there!”
As soon as Kim Gonggong finished speaking.
“Yes, okay.”
“Ah, then should we leave right away?”
Jjining appeared somewhat nervous, in contrast to Mungi who seemed extremely composed.
‘Does Mungi have a lot of dating experience…? Jjining came looking so pretty, but he’s just calmly moving on without giving any compliments about her appearance.’
Kim Gonggong watched this and thought Mungi must have plenty of dating experience.
But in reality, Mungi was.
‘Okay, this is a scene I’ve seen a lot in romantic comedies. Dating plan… not bad, I can do this.’
Running dating simulation games frantically in his head.
‘I just need to do it like Love All Logout.’
Dating? Do you think I’ve ever done something like that?
A one-day date? I can just study for that with dating sims.
‘Besides, this isn’t just a simple date.’
It’s one-day date content, so we need to act like a couple.
But my partner is Jjining, who has some weight among female streamers.
Now she communicates with viewers like friends to some extent, so she extracts less simp juice.
But actually, those friend-type relationships tend to naturally brew the most toxic simp juice.
‘Like in school days, when a girl got along well with all the guys in class… actually about 3 guys were secretly crushing on her.’
Then they’d confess jokingly on April Fool’s Day, or cry inside when she dated another guy.
There were quite a few toxic simp bros with that kind of BSS emotional attachment.
In other words.
‘On this date with Jjining, I need to date without provoking those toxic simp bros.’
It meant a precarious tightrope walk was about to begin.
Having finished his calculations, Mungi.
“Let’s go then… let me see, the restaurant is pasta?”
Immediately spoke to Jjining with a heart of steel.
“…But, um…”
Jjining tapped the front of her sneakers against the ground.
“…If it’s a date, shouldn’t we speak casually to each other? I want to… call you oppa.”
She shyly responded to Mungi.
‘Emergency! Don’t you know the word oppa is dangerous?’
Mungi felt his business email inbox was becoming endangered.
++++++++
At the same time.
“Ugh… mmph… Right, you can call me oppa… Try it, call Mungi oppa… But that appearance you like… I set up everything from top to bottom…”
Ttaranta, who was watching the broadcast, had an extremely sinister smile on her face.
Another person, Lera.
“…Come to think of it, Mungi-nim… did you say you’re participating in the Mud War? I got an offer too… as a supporter.”
She wore a bitter smile as she carefully read through the Mud War casting email again.
