[ L I V E ]
[ Let’s watch a movie with NeoLive! ˶•⩊•˶ ]
[ 41,000 viewers currently watching ]
A virtual streaming event with nearly 40,000 viewers, featuring a total of five virtual YouTubers on screen.
Each avatar prominently featured different animal ears. All five virtual YouTubers were inspired by animals, and the chat was ablaze.
[ Hahahahaha! ]
[ Hahahaha! ]
[ Hahahahaha! ]
The chat was filled with laughter.
However, the deer—Shikarin—did not look pleased.
For her, it was quite understandable.
A quiz mission worth 3 million won was at stake.
She had failed.
─O.O’s “3 or more correct answers” mission failed! ─
【 3,000,000 won failed! 】
“Ugh, guessing the actor’s name! It’s harder than I thought!”
Shikarin spoke up around that time. Pressing a preset shortcut, the avatar with antlers whimpered.
“You naughty folks! Is this situation really that funny?”
The girl character with deer antlers, ‘Shikarin’.
Having just failed a massive ‘guess the actor’s name’ quiz, Shikarin was the most popular figure on NeoLive. After all, a character that anthropomorphizes a deer is just too cute.
Moreover, her voice was excellent, and there was one more factor.
[ Nice hahaha Nice hahaha Nice hahaha ]
[ Did you try to guess with that kind of knowledge? Answer. Did you try to guess with that kind of knowledge? Answer. Did you try to guess with that kind of knowledge? Answer. ]
[ There are many geniuses but only one peak. I really love this saying. There are many geniuses but only one peak. I really love this saying. ]
[ Everyone, take your hands off the keyboard~ ]
[ The other four are really pitiful ]
“Hey! Quiet down! No mentioning that!”
… The mutual back-and-forth felt great.
The reason Shikarin could rise to the top among countless virtual YouTubers was largely due to the fact that they could laugh and tease each other like friends.
“Huh?”
Shikarin placed her hands on her waist at that moment.
Of course, she wasn’t genuinely angry.
It was just that deer—Go Eun-bi—Shikarin was a bit smarter. A virtual YouTuber who instinctively knew, ‘If I act this way in this situation, viewers will like it.’ A streaming genius.
Perhaps the embodiment of WWE? Or the embodiment of tikitaka?
In fact, she didn’t even feel regret for failing the 3 million won mission. The video had come out perfectly, right? By using various resources, she could earn even more.
But Go Eun-bi focused on her job.
After all, she was the celestial virtual YouTuber Shikarin right now!
“Are you all idiots? Do you really think Shikarin would get it wrong out of genuine ignorance? What do you think I am!”
[ Primitive hahaha Primitive hahaha Primitive hahaha ]
[ Burning 3 million won is so sweet hahaha ]
[ Ssssssssssss ]
[ Justice is alive~ Justice is alive~ ]
Acting like Sua and pretending to be angry.
In fact, the broadcasting concept that Go Eun-bi—Shikarin had captured was this, but even she initially didn’t expect it to go this well. I mean, what’s up with you, Sua? Were you also helpful at one point?
Then at some point.
Shikarin skillfully enlarged a chat message and displayed it on the screen.
[ Really cunning, how cunning hahaha Since no matter how hard I try, I can’t get the quiz right, I’ll just pretend to be angry and gather some money hahaha ]
“Huh?”
Shikarin narrowed her eyes.
“You guys, Shikarin will say just one thing.”
A serious expression appeared suddenly.
“If I show you how well I know, it’ll be frustrating for you, right? So I deliberately got one thing wrong. It’s tough pretending to be a recluse who doesn’t enjoy cultural activities.”
[ Hahaha ]
[ Today’s concept is really set hahaha ]
[ Why didn’t you just get it right? hahaha ]
“And you guys, who know the answers, should reflect! If you have time to watch dramas or movies, watch Shikarin!”
[ Ohhhh ]
[ What do you mean with that before the film festival homework ]
[ Advertisers wailing ON ]
[ Don’t watch movies! (In front of a film festival advertisement) ]
Shikarin cleared her throat belatedly.
“Ahem, watching together with Shikarin is okay….”
Of course, even this slip of the tongue was intentional.
Right after Shikarin showed a slightly flustered expression, control returned to the viewers. The chat messages flooded in uncontrollably.
[ I just want to watch dramas and movies! ]
[ I like actresses more than Shikarin! ]
[ Shikarin isn’t pretty! ]
[ Shikarin has no talent. Just quit the broadcast. ]
[ I just arrived, how’s the atmosphere in the chat?~ ]
[ It’s a festival! ]
“… Telling me to quit the broadcast is a bit too much! Were we not best friends? Didn’t we promise to be together forever?”
Shikarin pretended to be angry for a moment, then took a deep breath.
“Phew…. This won’t do. This time, I will show you Shikarin’s true skills. I’m going for a retry!”
And this time, she conducted another version of the actor name guessing quiz. Shikarin led the broadcast like this. Keeping a fun and playful atmosphere together.
“Shikarin! Let’s go for it this time!”
“We’ll actively help from the side!”
“Sending all the cheering energy!”
The reason NeoLive girls had no choice but to love Shikarin. This happened every time there was a collaboration. When Shikarin was leading, they just needed to laugh from the side.
First question.
(Profile photo of a man dressed entirely in black)
(Hint: Gorgeous Trash)
“Huh?”
Shikarin immediately reacted.
“I know this person. It’s Kim Sun-il.”
[ ? ]
[ ???? ]
[ Wow, the guy got it right instantly ]
[ I’m disappointed in Shikarin…. ]
“Why, why, why? You guys look don’t get him? You say that every time you make fun of my face!”
[ S-Sorry… ]
[ Shikarin, let’s make up…. ]
[ I’ll go buy charcoal… ]
[ I’m dying because of Shikarin today…. ]
Moving on to the next question.
(Profile of a pure actress drenched in water)
(Hint: Ion drink CF)
[ Woah ]
[ Wahahahaha ]
[ Wow…. ]
[ Wait, please leave the screen like this, it’s urgent ]
[ Oh…. ]
“Hey hey hey hey hey!”
Shikarin scolded and swiftly moved her avatar to cover the actress’s profile.
What happens then?
[ You b*tch ]
[ You devilish woman ]
[ Move it right now, it’s urgent ]
[ Shikarin, the older brothers aren’t joking… ]
[ Shikarin, show some ‘sincerity’. ]
“Ugh, you perverts! Trash!”
The NeoLive girls were captivated by Shikarin’s WWE skills, while Shikarin was now racking her brain to guess the answer. But what should she do? She had no idea at all.
“Um… I don’t know who it is…?”
[ She doesn’t know Seo Yeon-joo? ]
[ It’s Seo Yeon-joo ]
[ Please, deer girl, engage in cultural activities ]
[ Acting ignorant, ON. ]
[ Pretending not to know if it’s prettier than her, hahaha ]
“No, Shikarin really doesn’t know this person.”
Shikarin thought inside.
Seo Yeon-joo? Not only is her face remarkable, but she’s also incredibly popular.
“If you don’t know this actress, you’re a spy? Is she that famous?”
[ Yep, how can you not know Seo Yeon-joo ]
[ She’s the one who started the headband trend again ]
[ Her subtle tone of voice is addictive ]
[ Her body shape is beautiful, and we call her ‘Angel’ ]
The last chat was, of course, banned. Click.
At that moment, a whisper came from her manager.
[ Manager ]
▶ Shikarin.
▶ The film festival is starting soon.
▶ Let’s start preparing to watch and wrap up the quiz.
▶ Today’s broadcast went really well bb.
Shikarin instantly grasped it.
“Ugh, every time an actress comes out, you get all excited, you guys are so perverted. Justice Shikarin can’t stand this. I’ll end the quiz. Let’s all watch a movie together.”
She smoothly ended the quiz.
Glancing at the time, it was around 9:25 AM. The movie ‘Sword’ was set to screen in 5 minutes, and that could easily be filled with chatter.
What should she talk about for 5 minutes?
Then suddenly.
Shikarin thought of Sua.
“Hey hey hey, everyone. Shikarin’s precious friends!”
[ Yes ]
[ Focus ]
[ Yep yep ]
[ Go ahead ]
“Actually, Shikarin has a precious friend.”
[ A boy? ]
[ Is it a boy? ]
[ I might break my horn ]
[ d*mn it ]
“No, no, it’s a girl! A girl! Anyway, that friend is saying her dream is to be an actress. I mean, wouldn’t it be tough to reach the level of Seo Yeon-joo?”
[ It’s hard to compete with Seo Yeon-joo ]
[ You need to be born an actress ]
[ What does she look like? ]
[ Give us her three sizes ]
At some point, Shikarin was seriously talking about Sua, and the response from the viewers was, of course, ‘It’s hard’. With Kim Sun-il and Seo Yeon-joo as the comparison targets, anyone would feel paltry in comparison.
[ So, how does she look? ]
[ I’m curious about her face ]
[ Isn’t she trying to act because she’s pretty? ]
“Her face? Well, maybe not as pretty as mine, but….”
Right then.
─‘Sword’
The title of ‘Sword’ appeared on screen.
─Swoooosh.
With the sound of a haunting wind, the moment the actress appeared on screen.
“Ah, yes! She looks just like this.”
Upon seeing Wi Ji-hye, Shikarin reacted without realizing it.
“Her sharp eyes look the same. Like this…. Huh?”
However, Shikarin soon shut her mouth not because of the courtesy of watching.
It felt as if she had been hit in the head with a hammer.
『How mischievous.』
‘…Is this Sua?’
It was definitely Sua. No doubt about it.
The one who appeared on screen was clearly Sua.
─Nyaruharu donated 10,000 won─
【 Haha, starting off with a powerful presence! LOL 】
─Tuna Cat donated 1,000 won─
【 Is the short film festival only featuring pretty noona?】
Donations began pouring in wildly.
The chat exploded uncontrollably.
[ Wow, you can’t hide in a robe ]
[ Can see it, haha wow ]
[ It’s thin cloth and getting hit by the wind haha ]
[ So huge, haha so huge ]
[ Woah woah woah woah woah ]
[ Zoom in on the screen! Zoom in on the screen! ]
“…”
Shikarin had been silent since then.
[ LIVE ]
[ Let’s watch a movie with NeoLive! ˶•⩊•˶ ]
[ 60,000 viewers ]
Perhaps it was because Sua’s appearance was reflected in the broadcast thumbnail.
Viewers seemed to have entered in droves.
“…”
But Shikarin still had no words.
There was no movement.
As if she had died standing.
◈◈◈◈◈
That night. When all the screenings had concluded.
“Wha-what!”
Bang─!
The representative of CT Entertainment, where Yang Ha-rin belonged, slammed the desk.
◈◈◈◈◈
Night.
Busan Gwangalli Beach.
Whooooosh─
Members of Sua’s chatroom stood against the sea breeze.
“…Where’s Sua.”
A question from the deer—Go Eun-bi, as she stood on the sandy beach.
The members checked the time instead of answering.
It was just 5 minutes until Sua’s arrival.
