The Villain is Too Good at Broadcasting

Chapter 148 As the Taegukgi Flies

Twipod Global’s top streamer, ShoutOut, couldn’t have been happier as he looked at his friend who had come from Korea.

His image of Korea had always been positive.

He had built a long friendship with Dong-su, his first Korean friend, and liked Korea enough to visit more than four times a year.

“Your Korean friend is a real nutcase. I like him a lot. Did he take a hit of marijuana before coming?”

“Big Mac, marijuana is illegal in Korea.”

“Oh, really! Then what do Koreans do for fun? I thought that Korean was high. Oh, maybe he did drugs because he’s from North Korea?”

“Not funny, Mac.”

“Please, don’t call me by that trashy nickname.”

Another streamer standing next to ShoutOut, Big Mac, removed his trademark sunglasses and let out an exclamation.

ShoutOut looked at Big Mac and smiled.

It had been a year since he befriended this outrageous guy, and Big Mac was the most impulsive and aggressive person ShoutOut knew.

A streamer who pushed the unique swagger of black culture to its limits.

With his swagger mixed reactions and incredible gaming skills, he was truly an attractive streamer.

However, his weird personality made his social skills less impressive.

Big Mac liked ShoutOut’s friend from the beginning.

Chan-sik, who used the streaming nickname Shia.

ShoutOut couldn’t help but be impressed as he watched the broadcast on the large screen set up on stage.

-The guest from Korea, , decides the match!

-Overwhelming!

-Anyone would think 3K provided an exclusive beta version to that streamer!

-Anyone who played would know this Korean!

-A true tyrant, a real tyrant!

3K’s new game, , which followed , was implemented far more spectacularly than streamers expected.

Not only the generation that experienced , but even the following generations were mesmerized by the dazzling effects and intricate details.

However, the fundamental structure was not much different from .

From the combat system to the seven selectable heroes.

Though they promised to increase the number of heroes gradually through updates, all the heroes were the most popular choices in .

The system seemed to replicate the structure from .

Though the game was not much different from what was expected, , who was rampaging on stage, was smashing everyone’s expectations spectacularly.

-The hero you are seeing is one of the most common classes, .

-Doesn’t Shia’s play suggest there’s a serious balance issue? The Sword Master looks too strong.

-No, it’s not. In , hidden classes created differences among users, but at least in , it’s not the same.

On stage, Rick, the general developer of 3K, was eagerly continuing the broadcast.

It was more of a unilateral game bragging than a broadcast.

-Using the big data accumulated in in the history of , opportunities are open to everyone. Although there are advantages and disadvantages…

-So can you explain this situation, Rick?

-Um… that’s…

Thunk!

As Rick struggled to continue, the match between Korea’s and Japan’s on stage ended.

On the large screen, smirked and said something in Korean, which most people there couldn’t understand.

“Next time, if you can’t bite, don’t look at me arrogantly. Got it? Just to be clear, I’m not a racist. You were staring at me rudely earlier, weren’t you? I just didn’t like your eyes. So, I’m crushing you.”

Chan-sik’s provocation didn’t end there.

“Omae wa mou shindeiru. Isn’t that Japanese?”

“You… you…”

“Are you mute? If you can’t bite, don’t bark. Know your place.”

-What are they talking about?

-According to the interpreter, Shia, who won overwhelmingly, is insulting the opponent.

-Quite rude.

-I can understand. Northeast Asian countries have complex relationships! And that Korean streamer has already caused many controversies on MiTube.

-Yes, he’s famous as a troublemaker.

Among those who understood everything was ShoutOut. As he struggled to hold back his laughter while watching the scene, Big Mac, who had been watching the scene, grinned and spoke to ShoutOut.

“ShoutOut.”

ShoutOut hadn’t seen Big Mac smile like that in a long time.

The last time he smiled that widely, showing his white teeth, was probably when he received a $20,000 donation in one go.

“What?”

“I think I finally understand why you like Koreans. They’re all crazy!”

“Not all Koreans are like that…”

“Look! Isn’t that ‘Dong-su’? He loves his country fiercely!”

“Huh? Oh…!”

When ShoutOut turned his gaze to where Dong-su was, he saw him cheering louder than anyone from below the stage.

“Provoke more! Hey? Challenge them to a fight outside the capsule too! Chan-sik! Just crush them! You should never lose to the Japanese, not even in rock-paper-scissors!”

In his hand, the Taegukgi, which he had gotten from somewhere, was waving vigorously.

2.

-Kya! Feeling the national pride!

-Bartender!

-Hey! That’s a foreign country! What if you get shot by a Yakuza!

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-This guy’s done it all in Americaㅋㅋ

Honestly, it’s a bit scary.

Wasn’t the Korea I lived in a country without guns?

Even if I provoke openly, there was no threat to my life.

But I had no choice.

I am a streamer.

Wherever I go in the world, I have to provide stimulating content to suit my viewers’ tastes.

One episode of national pride content here was more important to me than five episodes of daily vlogs in America.

I looked at Dong-su hyung waving the Taegukgi from below the stage and asked him quietly.

“Hyung, where did you get that Taegukgi?”

Dong-su hyung shrugged and replied.

“Na-young said she brought it just in case.”

“Na-young?”

“I thought it might be useful.”

Indeed, Na-young was very considerate.

Thanks to Dong-su hyung waving the Taegukgi, foreign streamers were looking at us with interest.

Certainly, it wasn’t normal to think of waving the Taegukgi at the Twipod Global party.

As I came down from the stage and was leisurely drinking a glass of champagne, the Japanese streamer who lost to me was glaring at me resentfully.

But his eyes weren’t as filled with malice as before.

Let me say it again, I am not a streamer filled with anti-Japanese sentiment.

I just seek national pride, and Japan and China are the best sources for it.

…That’s all.

‘NationalPrideMissionMan’ donated 100,000 won!

[Sorry, I just logged into Twipod… I saw the clip, if you win the tournament and wave the Taegukgi, I’ll donate 1 million won. Deal?]

SD Corporation’s representative, Sung-su hyung’s Twipod nickname appeared before my eyes.

Yes, that hyung wouldn’t miss such an event.

I bowed 90 degrees towards the drone filming me from the air and said.

“President, thank you for coming today, and I’ll produce results that will satisfy you!”

-But who is this NationalPrideMissionMan?

-Hasn’t he donated over 100 million won to Shia’s stream? Every time I see him, he donates hundreds of thousands of won.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋIs he a building owner?

– He might be a third-generation chaebol ㅇㅇ

– Could it be that he’s actually super famous?ㅋ I hope the chairman makes an appearance

Big spenders in each stream often become as well-known as the streamers themselves, and “NationalistMissionMan” used by Seong-su hyung was no exception.

Seong-su hyung generously donated large sums of money to me, Heo-soo, and the rest of the crew.

I heard that last time, he even donated 1 million won to streamer Owawang, aka Byeong-mun hyung.

Since I always received help during broadcasts or ad shoots, I couldn’t be more grateful.

I bowed my head again in gratitude.

“Thank you again. By the way, Chairman. If a Chinese streamer comes up… could I possibly request protection… for my safety?”

Honestly, even just the yakuza were scary enough.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say I was risking my life to create content.

Of course, I was exaggerating for the sake of the broadcast.

In reality, I’ve lived comfortably so far.

Just because this is America doesn’t mean I’d get shot while walking around……

‘NationalistMissionMan’ has donated 100,000 won!

[ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Ok ok, I’ll contact a security company right away and help youㅋㅋ Do whatever you want, our Evil Gang!]

“Simply amazing…!”

-Mr. Amazingㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Cool

-Isn’t he actually a chaebol?

-Crazy scale

-Bartender! Close the shutter again here!

I was just joking…

I glanced at Sung-jae, and he nodded with an equally perplexed expression.

While I was bantering with the viewers like that, the new game tournament proceeded rapidly, and before I knew it, the semifinals were decided.

Was it the organizer’s trick?

Or was fortune truly favoring me?

The streamer I would face in the semifinals was.

“It’s been a while.”

A streamer I had faced once during the Northeast Asia Streamer Battle.

It was Xiao Hu from Chinese Heeya TV.

I had heard from Heo-soo that his mind was completely filled with Sinocentrism.

Despite his mediocre skills, his pride was annoyingly high.

Heo-soo mentioned that there were many nice Chinese people, but unfortunately, none of the Chinese I had encountered so far were nice.

Xiao Hu gritted his teeth at me before entering the capsule.

I looked at Xiao Hu and said.

“What are you gonna do, get mad?”

Great.

It’s always thrilling to provoke someone like this.

After the brief reunion with Xiao Hu, I immediately logged into the game.

.

Since it was almost a replica of ’s system, the game didn’t feel unfamiliar.

I chose the hero , who used a sword, the weapon I was most familiar with, and quickly entered the game.

Xiao Hu would undoubtedly choose the with a spear, right?

A moment later.

As I expected, Xiao Hu entered the game as a wielding a red spear.

– Sha Jun-gyeong lite?

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

– Lu Bu VS Cheok Jun-gyeong

– Haha, China’s dream after Japan… how far are they dreaming?

– This is going to be another sweet hit on AkTube

Lu Bu, huh.

Hearing about Lu Bu gave me an idea for a joke.

I lightly gripped my sword and spoke to Xiao Hu.

“Since you probably don’t understand Korean well, I’ll say it in English, Hey!”

As I called out to him, Xiao Hu frowned and pointed his spear at me.

“You Lu Bu, okay?”

“What the……”

“Lu Bu father three, okay? Lu Bu father three, three. And… you are Lu Bu, okay?”

‘ExplanationVillain’ has donated 10,000 won!

[Info: Lu Bu had three fathers in total. Our Evil Gang’s joke means you have three fathers just like Lu Bu, haha;]

Our viewers.

Aren’t they clever?
