Chapter 102
Watching the viewer count rise wasn’t something unfamiliar.
I had seen this happen before, back when I had a much smaller viewer count, and suddenly, a surge of viewers came in, causing it to skyrocket.
That’s why I wasn’t getting too excited and was able to stay calm.
“The viewer count is really going up.”
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: It would be weird if it wasn’t going up.]
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: I just watched the YouTube video and it was like a whole movie.]
[Gang Hoo-min: Aren’t the viewers going up too fast?]
[Dama, damn it, don't go mainstream. Dama, damn it, don't go mainstream. Dama, damn it, don't go mainstream.]
[Fact) Dama was already mainstream..]
[Missing Dugong.. Missing Dugong.. Missing Dugong.. Missing Dugong..]
[I really miss the old Dugong.]
[Hwanhee: New Neo Dama is fun too.]
Most of the viewers seemed nostalgic.
It seemed like they were talking about the time when there were only about twenty viewers.
So I spoke the truth.
“If I go back to that time, I think I would’ve quit streaming.”
No matter how sincere the viewers were in chatting, the sponsorship amount was still extremely low, and continuing the stream was simply not feasible.
I’d said I was streaming as a hobby, but there’s no way I could spend over 6 hours a day on just a hobby.
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: Still, I miss those times..]
[Ugh, these old-timers keep reminiscing about the past. I want to twist their necks and make them kiss the floor.]
Temporarily banned!
[The manager says if you talk like that, you get banned, LOL.]
[Gang Hoo-min: If I could go back, I wouldn’t have made such ridiculous promises, haha.]
[Regretting foolishness is Gang-hyung ᄏᄏ]
[Gang-hyung is really not easy.]
[By the way, the viewers are really skyrocketing.]
The viewers were indeed rising rapidly.
Before I knew it, the current number of viewers was—
[Viewer count: 2,519]
It was at the 2500 viewer level.
That was comparable to a small-to-medium business and definitely not a shabby number.
“By the way, now that I’ve reached Challenger, it does feel easier. Beating Rize to get there feels even better, honestly.”
Maybe it was because I’d beaten Rize that I was in a better mood.
It felt like I had gotten my revenge, in a way.
I thought to myself that I’d definitely get my proper revenge the next time I met Rize and then logged into YouTube.
“Well, now that most of the viewers have come in, let’s watch some YouTube together.”
I had been saving the YouTube video for this very moment.
If I watched it beforehand, it wouldn’t be as fun.
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: Oh, we’re watching YouTube together now.]
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: Glad I watched the preview earlier.]
[This is it, haha.]
[Gang Hoo-min: What’s the big deal about reaching Challenger, you’re even doing a reaction video now, ugh.]
[Hoo-min, type properly ᄋᄋ before I track you down to Gangseo District.]
[If you search Gangseo District, you’ll probably find someone who looks like Hoo-min LOL.]
[Gang Hoo-min: Damn, this is annoying.]
[Calm down~~~]
I started playing the YouTube video I had been saving.
The number of viewers had already risen to 2,600.
It was amazing to be watching YouTube with so many people.
I thought it was kind of surreal as I watched the video.
The first scene that appeared was from when I first started streaming.
Even now, sometimes I think that way.
They always do things that seem impossible for someone in their right mind.
[Harin: What the hell do you think I am?]
[Harin: This is ridiculous.]
[Harin: Isn’t it obvious what you think of me?]
[Harin: But seriously, why are the viewers increasing so fast?]
[Harin: (I really don’t know.)]
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: She officially signed a contract with FanTube.]
[Doesn’t Dama’s friend know this? Let go of your milk addiction.]
[If you’re gonna let go, donate to me.]
Still, it was good to have gotten close.
I had received a lot of help with the streaming side of things.
I was thinking that, when suddenly, Gang Hoo-min appeared.
“Hmm... It’s Hoo-min.”
Honestly, I didn’t really want to say anything.
Although I had gotten close with Gang Hoo-min, it wasn’t to the point where I could talk openly with him, so it was better to just mention it briefly and move on.
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: Wow, Gang Hoo-min!!!!!!!]
[Harin: When I saw Hoo-min last time]
[Harin: I thought they were really unique.]
[Seriously, they are unique.]
[If you pour your whole life into stocks, you become this unique.]
[Really, they are ridiculously unique, LOL.]
We briefly mentioned Gang Hoo-min and continued watching the video.
“This was really surprising at the time, though. My tier wasn’t going up at all.”
There were moments when I was stuck in Diamond, and funny moments in between.
How much time had passed while watching the video?
Before I knew it, there were only 10 minutes left in the video.
‘This video really was made well.’
Even I thought it was fun.
Feeling amazed, I checked the current viewer count—
“...What?”
The viewer count was abnormal.
[Viewer count: 5,201]
The viewer count was rising rapidly.
It was beyond comparison with before.
Then, I remembered a promise I had made in the past.
If I ever reached 10,000 viewers, even for a short time, I’d reveal my face.
‘...Nah, there's no way I’ll reach 10,000.’
10,000 viewers was far from achievable.
I didn’t need to worry about it and kept watching the rest of the video.
