Chapter 222 – Play With Me! (4)
A crisis is an opportunity
It is a classic and outdated word, but it is imbued with the wisdom of life. At least for the current Han Soo-ah, these words were felt with her whole body.
“Juhee, the average number of viewers has gone up a lot!”
“This is all thanks to Jikyung, no, Jikyung unnie.”
Hehe. You can just call me by my first name.”
“Me too! I want to call you sister too! Wow, unnie Jikyung!”
“Soo, even Sua. Hehe.”
Yoo Ji-kyung’s intentions were right.
Some of the people who came in from the community clicked the follow button and became fixed viewers. Han Soo-ah proves her skill and she became Trick Key TV’s representative Psy Kick Watch broadcaster.
The decisive catalyst was the mad movie made by Yoo Ji-kyung. As soon as her initial controversy erupted, she saw her crisis as an opportunity for growth and worked on one video. Mad Movies, which she submitted a few days ago as her portfolio her to become the editor of Gomi TV. She used it as a base and stitched together her latest videos her from the past few days.
The video produced by Yu Ji-kyung was a breeze on the air. Mad Movie went up on WiTube, rode the algorithm, and became famous by wandering the community with memes.
– Is the comment about 149cm real? Really?
– Is this a 20-year-old high school girl? Is this a 20 year old high school girl? Is this a 20 year old high school girl?
– It looks like I want to raise it at homehaha
At first, there were many articles by Han Soo-ah about her appearance. She was 20 years old, and she had the imbalance of being a high school girl, her short stature of only 149 cm, and a cute and round girl who was playing a popular game, so she couldn’t help but look at her.
Her interest her in her appearance made her watch the video until the end, and the attention of those who watched until the end turned to her her game skills.
– Wow, is this a girl’s play? It’s not a support, it’s a dealer, but he’s good at it.
– Everything else seems to be at the master level, but the sniper rifle is aiming. Aiming and shooting is almost instant. Not nuclear?
└ Not nuclear. I proved my skills with a hand cam.
└ Nohahacute face, but the sniping is bloody.
Psychic Watch’s first female challenger.
It also became a hot topic in that it was achieved as a dealer, not as a support.
But did it become a hot topic?
Around August, a surprising proposal came through Han Soo-ah’s e-mail and broadcasting account.
[I really want to recruit Hangomi to the Psychic Watch Pro Team GRM.]
A scream-like exclamation escaped Han Soo-ah’s mouth after reading her mail to her.
“Ugh, wow! You want me to become a pro gamer!”
She didn’t just come from one team. She sent in offers for as many as five teams.
“As expected, Sua came too.”
“Uh? Did Hwan-i get it too?”
“Yes. I come from three teams.”
Seo Joo-hwan, who said that, had the same bewildered expression. What a surprise she was when she first saw the recruitment offer. She didn’t know that she would receive an offer to recruit a professional in the game she enjoyed as a hobby.
‘It must have been when the league was just being founded.’
It’s only been about 4 months since Psychic Watch started its official service. Companies that quickly judged the popularity and marketability of games were establishing professional leagues and recruiting players. In the meantime, a recruitment proposal was sent to Han Soo-ah and Seo Ju-hwan, who became a hot topic on Tricky TV.
‘I never thought they’d send it to me.’
Han Soo-ah has enough box office success. She has a cute appearance and is a female professional gamer who is not inferior to men. She was a very suitable player to grow the newly created pro league market in that she was also a dealer. It sounds like she’s good for public attention.
On the other hand, since Seo Joo-hwan did not reveal his changed face from before and was not a broadcaster, it means that he purely looked at his skills and made the proposal. What is unique about him is that he gives instructions to his teammates through voice chatting to make use of his special ability his, ‘multitasking’. In fact, it was stated in the recruitment proposal that he was impressed with the strategic play.
‘What’s a pro?’
He had a moment of disapproval, but he quickly gave up his thoughts. There was nothing he couldn’t do, but he wasn’t very interested. And the potential grade of his game talent his was B+.
You may be able to chew on the pro scene now that the game has just come out. Because he returned from the future and had information and understanding of the game that was superior to other people.
But even after a year, the game will be different. Are Korean people good at games? Korea’s PC room culture and passion for games train talents with A-level or higher talent through early education. Thanks to this, pro gamers had a much higher average talent than other occupations.
“Sua, what are you going to do? Think carefully if you have any thoughts. I think you are very talented.”
“Yes. First of all, isn’t Hwan oppa not doing it?”
“I have to go to school and write, so it’s impossible.”
“I see. Umm……”
Han Soo-ah was more deeply troubled than she thought. It wasn’t just because of the pro gamer proposal.
*
To Han Soo-ah, the proposal to be a pro gamer was meaningless. It’s true that it’s exciting and happy, but the current broadcast was more important. However, when a new career path suddenly opened up in front of him, thoughts he had been ignoring so far came to the surface.
‘Do I really need to go to college? Of course I want to go, but….’
He wasn’t saying it because he didn’t want to study. Just because the current situation is going so well, he thought that it would be right for him to focus on broadcasting.
In the first place, most of the people who want to go to university in Korea are not for learning, but for getting a diploma. And the reason I needed a diploma was to get a job.
However, Han Soo-ah was already earning money. And that too in significant amounts. Broadcasting, which had grown bigger day by day, met this opportunity and rode the wave of rapid growth as if setting sail on a fair wind.
Given this situation, I wondered if it would be right for me to go to college. I still had the desire to go, but I was worried because it was considered too young and not a realistic reason.
“Sua, why couldn’t you concentrate today? What are you worried about?”
I have doubts about going to college, so I can’t concentrate well on my studies. In the end, Han Soo-ah, who was pointed out during tutoring, could not hide her sullen appearance of her.
Seo Joo-hwan asked her after her outing her.
“Is it because of the pro gamers? You said you wouldn’t.”
“Yes. Not because of that.”
“Hmm. Can’t you tell me?”
Han Soo-ah made an ambiguous expression. She did n’t explain her reasons her to him in detail because she was ashamed that her own thoughts her would seem too young.
Seo Joo-hwan gently brushed Han Soo-ah’s hair. When his hand touched her hair her, Han Soo-ah reflexively laughed and rubbed her head. A peek laughs at that puppy-like appearance. The reason he got into the habit of petting women’s hair was entirely because of Han Soo-ah.
“Sua.”
“Yes.”
“Would you like to have a drink with your brother?”
“Yes! … Yes?”
Han Soo-ah tilted her head.
“Alcohol?”
This is the first time Seo Joo-hwan has suggested that we drink first. He could see right away that it was a proposal for distress counseling. He was also a grateful and trustworthy older brother.
At that moment when he smiled like that, Han Soo-ah flashed a good idea. Opening her eyes wide once, she nodded her head fiercely.
“Yes, I want a drink!”
“Haha. Did you want to drink I really like it.”
Seo Joo-hwan laughed at her more positive reaction than he thought. Did Han Soo-ah like to drink? She had only had a few drinks together before.
At that time, Han Soo-ah said.
“Can I go and drink with Hwan-i’s brother?”
“My house? Hmm, do you mind if your parents are here?”
The reason she invited her to drink was because she wanted Han Soo-ah to share her troubles her with a lighter heart. However, her parents and Seo Joo-hee were at home.
Han Soo-ah shook her head.
“No, I want to go to my brother’s room and drink.”
“My own room?”
“Yes!”
Han Soo-ah’s eyes her shone bright enough to be burdensome.
*
Seo Joo-hwan took Han Soo-ah and headed to her room her. It goes without saying that beforehand she asked Han Soo-ah’s parents for her permission. Her mother her readily agreed.
‘Ho Ho. Well, of course it’s fine. Take whatever you want. You can take it for the rest of your life.’
‘Haha.’
‘Oh, do I have to use that instead? Know?’
‘… What is it?’
‘Ah, you know. Oh ho ho.’
‘What do you know?!’
Even over the phone, a sinister smile was clearly drawn. After that, the cry of ‘Speeding is not allowed!’ Was from Han Soo-ah’s father, Han Jeong-seok. It was all the more embarrassing because they both knew he was half serious.
‘Sua is her younger sister her.’
She is the younger sister she has seen and grown up with since she was born. Maybe because she grew up watching her from a very young age, she felt like her real sister her, and of course, she had a little bit of her father’s heart her.
She presumed that if she thought they were brother and sister, Han Soo-ah would too.
Every time he went to her Han Sua’s house her, her parents her would smile and ask when she would get married and how many children she would have.
Seo Joo-hwan, before returning, laughed vaguely at such times. Han Soo-ah also scolded her mother and her father her, saying, “What are you talking about?”
On the other hand, in this life he answered generously. Since he is still too young, he postponed the deadline, saying that we should talk about it after 10 years, and Han Jeong-seok suggested a compromise, saying let’s do it for 5 years. At the joke-like conversation between the two, Han Soo-ah exploded as to what they were negotiating.
That’s why Seo Joo-hwan thought that Han Soo-ah also considered him as her real brother her.
Seo Joo-hwa listened to Han Soo-ah’s concerns about her with the heart of her real brother or her father.
“Ugh. Are you worried about whether you should go to college or focus on broadcasting?”
Han Soo-ah nodded her head.
“Yes. To be honest, the broadcast is doing really well right now. In a little while, it’s already 200,000. It is said that there are few people who have raised subscribers as quickly and consistently as I did.”
“But. He definitely grew up well.”
It’s only been about 6 months since we started broadcasting in earnest. Within that short period of time, the group achieved over 100,000 subscribers, and gained momentum through this incident to hit 200,000. The scale has already exceeded the hobby level. It was understandable that Han Soo-ah was worried.
‘Sua’s broadcast is fun.’
Han Soo-ah has a very colorful expression in her basically cute appearance of her. In addition to that, she has a special talent called Myeonggi (明气), which makes the viewer feel good. Even if she did a radio broadcast rather than a game broadcast, she wouldn’t have made it big someday.
“Hmm. Shall we salt it?”
“Yes! I’ll follow you!”
Han Soo-ah grabbed the soju and poured it until it overflowed.
“Huh? It overflows, Sua.”
“Hehe. I said I followed you as much as I love you!”
“Puhaha. Where did you learn that Then I will have to follow suit.”
“Eek! Why so little follow! Hwan oppa hates me?!”
“Kuk-kuk. It’s a joke. Be careful not to overdo it. Alright, salty.”
“Awesome!”
So we drank and talked.
Seo Joo-hwan did not say anything hastily, but listened to her story and was immersed in her thoughts.
“So, isn’t it better to just not go to college and broadcast? Are you worried?”
Seo Joo-hwan nodded her head and passed her drink. And with a serious expression on her face, she asked Han Soo-ah.
“Putting that reason aside, you want to go to college first, right?”
“Yes. But the reason I want to go is because it’s too childish…….”
“For what?”
Han Soo-ah hesitated as if it was difficult to say easily.
“I will not laugh. Whatever the reason, it’s okay, so tell me.”
“Ugh.”
Having said that, even Han Soo-ah couldn’t help but tell her. Wasn’t it Seo Joo-hwan who came to his own room in Anyang again because of his stubbornness?
She sipped her glass of soju and said.
“I thought it would be fun!”
