Seriously Bringing in Viewers
【Love Code】 Episode 11.
Starting with Mungi coming out with three women’s hair ties around his wrist in Episode 10.
To hint at three dates and continue that atmosphere.
“…Phew.”
From the start of the broadcast, they blatantly film Mungi in a one-shot, centering the screen around him.
Mungi, who opened his eyes as if he’d been waiting the moment 6 AM arrived, immediately headed to the kitchen.
There, he was about to prepare breakfast.
“…”
His eyes fall on a 2L water bottle filled with lemon water, along with a note that reads [What’s so great about lemon water!].
“This is Na-kyung’s.”
Mungi, who immediately recognized who the water bottle belonged to, knew this was a gift for him.
With eyes that seemed to think ‘what kind of appeal is this,’ he downs the entire 2L of lemon water in one go right there.
After that, he was about to prepare a hearty breakfast spread when.
“Oh my, our Mungi, did you cough?”
“Ah, hyung, why are you ready to tease me the moment you see me?”
“I was going to cook for you, we’re launching a new menu at our shop so try the taste.”
“I’m amazing at that kind of thing.”
Yoo Hyeon-jun, who woke up late, enters the kitchen saying he’ll prepare breakfast.
“Help me out from the side, we need to prepare at least 5 servings.”
“For Ji-an?”
“Is it that obvious?”
“Is there anyone here who doesn’t know that?”
“Like the water bottle you’re holding?”
“…”
“Why do you like lemon water so much, is it healthy?”
“I just don’t drink plain water much, so this way I drink more water.”
A casual conversation between Mungi and Yoo Hyeon-jun.
But they aren’t the center of this conversation.
Using Mungi as an excuse, a chef preparing breakfast for the woman he likes.
And beside him, a kitchen assistant silently helping with the cooking.
While everyone else is asleep, only these two men carefully prepare for the day in the kitchen.
“But those hair ties really suit you, wearing them on your wrist.”
“Really?”
“When this is over, you should wear bracelets and stuff.”
“Hyung, your necklace is pretty, whoever picked it has good taste.”
“Enough, enough. Let’s not talk about this.”
The conversation ends there.
The two men begin cooking in earnest.
“No, what are these guys really?”
“Even setting aside Hyun-jun… Mungi, did he really learn this from somewhere like… ‘The Ultimate Guide to Being a Flirty Guy’ or something?”
“Drinking it all in one shot, washing the water bottle… and immediately preparing food in return… This is scripted, right? There’s a script, isn’t there? Otherwise, there’s no way he could react that naturally.”
“Mungi has to go on three dates, but he looks even more relaxed than Hyun-jun who seems at ease.”
“He’s just naturally like that, just… he’s a naturally relaxed person.”
Watching this, the panel couldn’t help but be amazed.
When dating three people, you might waver back and forth, or become more passive.
But Mungi showed none of that, acting exactly the same as before, or perhaps even more proactively.
“That would actually be really appreciated, right? Even if he doesn’t choose me, it feels like he’d look at me properly?”
“Exactly. That’s better than showing him wavering back and forth… worrying between multiple people.”
“He really is a new type of character. It’s like he’s straight out of a manga.”
Indeed.
“Na-kyung, the lemon water was delicious. I’ve washed everything, so you can take your water bottle.”
When Yoo Na-kyung came out while he was preparing food, he immediately expressed his gratitude.
Even though other cast members were nearby.
A person without secrets, transparent.
Someone who made you want to claim him as your own even more, yet also made you want to see his honest, straightforward approach.
That was Mungi.
Clatter clatter.
As soon as he finished preparing the meal, Mungi immediately started eating.
At the same time, he quickly washed up, changed clothes, and prepared to go out.
Since it was normally a time when they wouldn’t go out.
“Where are you going, oppa?”
Seeing Mungi suddenly getting ready to leave, Kim A-young asked a question.
“I’m going out to date you. If we leave together, there’s no excitement, so I want to meet at the meeting place.”
To Kim A-young, his first date partner, Mungi answered casually.
Those sincere eyes that he showed only to the person he was currently dating.
Seeing those eyes, Shin So-rim and Yoo Na-kyung hurriedly turned their heads away.
It was the moment when three dates were about to begin in earnest.
+++++
Three dates.
The first in order was Kim A-young.
True to her profession as a flight attendant, she was very elegant yet brightly smiling.
A woman who caught everyone’s attention with her striking first impression and received favorable messages from everyone on the first day.
Knowing she was pretty and well aware that her smile was charming.
A person who freely showed off her charm through this.
But even such a person, in the end.
“…Oh, oppa… hello.”
“You came?”
In front of someone she felt strong attraction to, she couldn’t help but stammer.
Especially when that person.
“Please take good care of me on today’s date.”
“What’s there to take care of, we just need to have fun together.”
“Ah…, yes.”
“Why are you suddenly acting so stiff, when just yesterday we were laughing together having fun.”
This was even more true if he was the first type of man she’d ever encountered in her life.
‘He’s really such an interesting person.’
It was obvious that he found her laughter charming.
But that was exactly where it ended.
She could see that he wasn’t curious about her.
‘He’s doing it now too.’
They were walking together, laughing, and spending time together.
But it was extremely rare for Mungi to ask her questions first.
Of course, she wasn’t blaming him for that.
Since she herself wasn’t being proactive enough to ask questions either.
Kim A-young realized for the first time that she was such a cowardly person.
She could tell because they were on a date, and he was someone who faced emotions head-on.
‘Mungi oppa isn’t really interested in me.’
She could feel that there was nothing more than the human kindness he was showing because they were on a date.
It was an emotion she could recognize because he was honest and had nothing to hide, so Kim A-young continued with the date.
And when it came time to say goodbye at the end.
“…I heard that oppa doesn’t really like women who cry.”
Kim A-young ended up bursting into tears.
A mixture of regret that she couldn’t confront everything and self-blame for why she lacked courage.
All the accumulated emotions finally became drops that flowed down her cheeks.
“I’m sorry, until the very end… I just… didn’t want to show you this side of me.”
This man who had been looking at her throughout every moment of their date.
When she realized that in the end, he wouldn’t choose her, the sadness that came rushing in was indescribable.
“No, it’s okay. It was fun and thank you.”
Since feelings of liking someone can’t be erased in an instant.
Kim A-young and Mungi’s date ended in tears like that.
But this wasn’t something that happened only to Kim A-young.
Shin So-rim, who was quiet and relatively not proactive, also.
“…I’ll take back the Hair Tie. Please give it to me.”
In the end, she shed tears and asked Mungi to give back her Hair Tie.
She might have lingering feelings for him, but knowing that he had no lingering feelings for her.
The Hair Tie wrapped around Mungi’s wrist felt like an unnecessary obstacle.
The first date and second date both ended in tears like that.
The panelists watching this also had tears welling up a little.
“Um, it really feels like… a very clean ending to a romantic interest, right.”
“That’s right.”
“We have so much fun dating each other, playing around… and then at some point you realize, ah, this man doesn’t see me as a woman.”
“At first it’s just… simply expressing affection to each other, taking photos together at places like Four-Cut Photo booths… and then you gradually realize.”
“He’s looking at me, he sees me completely… but that can’t develop into something romantic… you know that feeling.”
“Mungi’s attitude is very firm, he has the intention to make dates enjoyable, but he doesn’t have the attitude of making them enjoyable as a lover.”
“I don’t know how he can distinguish that 100% like that, honestly that’s both very warm and cold at the same time.”
“That’s why they all cry.”
Both dates ended in tears.
With only the date with Yoo Na-kyung remaining.
The panelists expressed their opinions with very ambiguous expressions.
“Does Mungi… actually like Na-kyung?”
“Right, I’m getting really curious about that part too.”
“Huh? Why? He rejected everyone else because he likes her, didn’t he?”
“Thinking that simply is also a bit… in the end, not choosing is also an option, he might not pick anyone at all.”
“Ah, that’s true.”
Since there’s no law saying he must make a choice.
Mungi rejecting Yoo Na-kyung wasn’t completely impossible either.
In fact, the only Hair Tie remaining on Mungi’s arm was Yoo Na-kyung’s.
Seeing how the previous two had disappeared one by one, Yoo Na-kyung’s hair tie could easily fall off too.
How would the final date turn out?
While the panelists were curious about the outcome.
“Mungi oppa!”
The date with Yoo Na-kyung began.
And for the first time among the women who dated Mungi.
Squeeze.
“Can we hold hands while walking? It’s cold.”
She was the first to actively hold his hand.
++++++
Among the Love Code cast members, Yoo Na-kyung was still.
‘This is the right way to do it.’
She could confidently say she knew Mungi better than anyone else.
Because they had met privately once before, and she had gone on the most dates with him.
She had observed him from the closest distance, and they had exchanged many stories through truth games.
While it was impossible to understand everything, she had roughly figured out what type Mungi was.
‘He’s not the type to leave room for ambiguity, if he likes something he likes it… if he doesn’t he doesn’t… that’s clear.’
Should I say he’s the type with very clear preferences and dislikes?
That’s why.
“Should I give you a hand warmer? If you’re really cold.”
“Are you pretending to be oblivious on purpose?”
“No, I have a hand warmer in my pocket, if needed you can just put your hand in my pocket.”
“While still holding hands, right.”
“Right.”
It was important to push forward this aggressively and put herself within the ‘favorable’ range.
Yoo Na-kyung used to think that Mungi was the type who had a lot of dating experience.
But now her thoughts had changed.
She could smell it.
The scent of someone who had been single since birth, just like herself.
‘Well, even if he’s not necessarily single since birth… he gives off the feeling of having little dating experience.’
Although she herself had been single since birth.
She still knew how to appeal to men to some extent.
“The hair tie looks really good on you when you wear it like a bracelet.”
“Right.”
“Should I get you a bracelet as a gift?”
“Then should I get you something too? Like a necklace?”
Playing along appropriately, laughing, and chatting.
While this level of interaction was somewhat appealing, Yoo Na-kyung felt it wasn’t enough.
After maintaining a casual date throughout the day, during their final dinner time.
When the alcohol had kicked in enough to bring a slight flush to her face.
“Oppa, I’m going to choose you.”
She decided to just throw away the brakes.
“…”
Many words weren’t necessary.
After all, sincerity is supposed to be short and concise.
“The final choice is tomorrow, right? I’m going to choose you then.”
“Even a passing fool would know that, you gave me the lemon water for that reason too.”
“So you’re accurately aware of my feelings.”
Therefore.
“Right.”
“Th, then… I, I also…”
To hear the other person’s true feelings.
“…I want to know your feelings accurately too.”
She had no choice but to keep pushing forward.
It felt different from questions like ‘I like you, how do you feel about me’.
The courage to know the other person’s heart, following her brave confession, became words that came out of her mouth.
A moment of silence.
Mungi, who heard those words, looked at Yoo Na-kyung without saying anything.
Swoosh.
Then he got up.
He whispers an honest answer close to her ear, so that only Yoo Na-kyung can hear.
Even though he had acted in a way that would drive everyone crazy with curiosity.
Mungi himself, the person in question, maintains a comfortable smile.
“Now that we know each other’s feelings, this won’t be necessary anymore.”
For the first time out of three dates.
He takes off the hair tie from his wrist first, right in front of the woman.
“Ah, that’s… that’s right, we don’t need this anymore.”
As soon as Yoo Na-kyung receives the hair tie that Mungi took off, she bows her head deeply.
Was that answer a rejection? In the end, Mungi ended up seeing a woman cry on this date as well.
But that didn’t make Mungi weak, nor did he suddenly show signs of worry.
As always, in the same way he had always ended his dates.
“Thank you for liking me.”
He says those words briefly and quietly waits for her emotions to calm down, with the crying woman in front of him.
And as that scene gradually fades away, just before Love Code Episode 11 completely ends.
“No way, Mungi.”
“Sigh… This person is really incomprehensible, shouldn’t he tell us what he said?”
“What are we supposed to do if he’s training us too? He’s really so manly.”
Finally showing the panel’s reactions, the ending came.
Since episodes 11 and 12 were released consecutively, people immediately watched episode 12 in succession.
The long-awaited Love Code Episode 12 was finally the final choice.
Since it was the moment when real couples would be born.
People didn’t watch the first half of episode 12 and quickly skipped to the second half.
Since Love Code wasn’t the first dating program either.
Everyone knew exactly how the beginning of episode 12 would proceed.
Of course.
– Not skipping?
– Please skip it
“Why would I skip? You have to watch all of this to really see all of Love Code.”
Mungi, who was watching in real time, played episode 12 without any skipping.
But viewers watching on Netflix just jumped straight to the second half.
Anyway, the first half content was just everyone gathering to eat together.
Having final one-on-one conversations and conveying their true feelings.
In the end, everything was decided in the final choice.
And so, in the second half of episode 12.
The people facing the final choice showed themselves using phones for the first time.
As if proving why the program was called Love Code.
They input numbers with their chosen person’s name written on them into their phones.
If both input each other’s codes and the call connects, they become the final choice.
If only one side attempts to connect, the call fails.
The Yoo Hyeon-jun x Seo Ji-an couple, who were practically confirmed first, input each other’s codes as expected.
“Hello?”
“Hi, this is the first time hearing your voice over the phone like this.”
“That’s true.”
“Where are you? I’ll come to you.”
The scene shows them meeting each other with bright, cheerful smiles.
The second couple to appear was Ji Si-woo x Hwang Da-jeong.
Even though they were quiet with each other and didn’t go on dates often.
Perhaps it was because they consistently showed scenes of talking to each other and opening their hearts at the accommodation.
The two of them also immediately.
“Should we meet at the cafe?”
“Are we promoting the cafe like this?”
As if confirming that they were romantically attracted to each other, they appeared meeting while holding hands tightly.
And then next.
Ring ring ring.
A scene appears of Ki Seong-ho breathing out vapor while calling Kim A-young from outside.
And the screen immediately cuts away, simultaneously showing Kim A-young also calling someone.
“…Sigh.”
Shin So-rim making a call with a sigh.
And Yoo Na-kyung picking up her phone with trembling hands while fidgeting appear on screen in sequence.
The last one, as expected.
“…It’s cold.”
Mungi appears lifting up his phone with an awkward smile while saying it’s cold for no reason.
And so the five intertwined love lines finally.
“…Hello?”
“The hair tie, give it back because I need it.”
Are perfectly sorted out, ending with Mungi and Yoo Na-kyung connecting.
“Wow, what!”
“Mungi chose Na-kyung.”
“Wow, I just… thought he wouldn’t choose anyone.”
“This is crazy.”
The panelists’ reactions and.
“Love Code… was really interesting. Thanks to it, I think I met a good connection.”
Brief interviews with the cast members follow.
The ending song gradually begins to play.
“Definitely… Na-kyung being honest with her own feelings makes me honest with myself too, I think.”
Mungi’s final line comes out.
Followed by brief dating scenes of the cast members who became couples.
【Love Code】 comes to an end like that.
And as soon as all episodes finished.
Oh wow
So is there a current boyfriend or not?
ㄴ I think I’ll have to go check out their Instagram and dig around
ㄴ Wait, but I’ve never heard that you went on a date lol
Either they were really thorough about it or they were just paired up for broadcast purposes only lol
If there’s no current couple, I’ll be fucking disappointed since everyone probably just came out to get famous
The viewers immediately went crazy.
The Community also kept writing posts related to 【Love Code】.
And kept burning through 【Love Code】 related gossip.
And then finally.
Wait, this person watched all 12 episodes and is still doing a live broadcast?
For real?
ㄴ Yes
Let’s go garden Munggi broadcast ㄱㄱㄱㄱ
They tried to rush to the broadcast to ask various questions to Mungi, the top output of 【Love Code】.
They tried to go to Mungi’s broadcast but were blocked by two iron walls.
『This is a subscriber-only broadcast.』
The first iron wall that required a subscription service to enter.
[Mungi / No Love Code talk X Will reveal later. Finished all 12 episodes so let’s game]
And the second iron wall was Mungi’s broadcast title that absolutely refused to give any Love Code gossip.
++++++++
Just like how the most dangerous moment during travel is when you’re heading home.
Broadcasting is also most dangerous when you think it’s all over.
And right now.
With 【Love Code】 completely finished and everyone swimming around looking for more gossip.
‘My broadcast is the most dangerous.’
I thought there was no one who could become a target more easily than me right now.
A participant doing live Internet Broadcasting in real time – could there be anyone more accessible than this?
‘If I slip up here, it’s over.’
That’s why I deliberately said I wouldn’t talk about 【Love Code】 and switched to subscriber-only broadcasting.
– Ttaranta† subscribers Mung-spi) 6,875 people wow
– That’s crazy
– Watching subscribers increase is so sweet
– Just milk it for one month, how much is all this worth
– Is this the smell of success?
– Success Mung-ppo *3*
– Deep Mung-ppo =3=
– Deep Mung-hyeo “3”~
– Mung-lump :3
It was gaining tremendous popularity with nearly 7,000 subscribers.
Even though all Love Code-related questions were being banned from chat.
I could see the real-time viewer count continuing to gradually increase bit by bit.
– What happened? /This viewer has been banned from chat
– Who is the current guy? /This viewer has been banned from chat
– Please answer /This viewer has been banned from chat
– Why won’t you answer related questions? /This viewer has been banned from chat
– Are we still not allowed to talk about it? /This viewer has been banned from chat
– Isn’t this a Communication channel? /This viewer has been banned from chat
The atmosphere was getting out of control despite Ttaranta’s continued efforts to suppress it.
To calm this atmosphere, I had no choice but to pull out a special measure.
And that was.
“King’s Ascension 20th floor, I’m going to clear it this time. Let’s start the challenge right away.”
I would just endlessly repeat various games until the influx of viewers died down.
No, I’m supposed to do a joint broadcast with Yoo Na-kyung this week.
Should I just freeze the Chat Room then? Or should I make it fan chat only?
‘What am I supposed to do when it’s already this chaotic?’
I don’t even want to switch to subscriber-only mode then.
But then my viewer count will really just surpass 10,000, won’t it?
‘I wanted to reach that through my pure Broadcasting power… If that happens, my broadcast’s virginity will just be broken… pumped up by big capital, ugh ugh…’
Of course it’s definitely a good thing.
But I couldn’t help feeling sad about it.
While waiting for the day when I could truly maintain five-digit viewers through the pure power of My Room’s Broadcasting.
“Let’s go kill the influx.”
I seriously started killing the influx.
