“Let’s eat, everyone.”
When I said that, Hanbyeori asked with a surprised look.
“Huh, is it okay to reveal your face?”
“Well, I’m just an ordinary person, right? I’m not some celebrity or broadcaster with a hidden story.”
“But that’s exactly why being an ordinary person means you should be more careful.”
Anyway, my face was bound to be exposed next year when I debut.
If a team that recognizes my worth shows up quickly, it’ll be on some article beforehand.
That’s why whether or not I revealed my face didn’t really matter – although her reaction was far too entertaining.
“I don’t mind, but if you’re uncomfortable, I can refrain from doing it.”
[????????]
[I’m withdrawing all my support for Hanbyeori from today. From now on, I’m launching an indiscriminate attack on Hanbyeori.]
[🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥]
[No, seriously, I’m losing my mind over her smile… I can’t take it anymore]
[ ㄴBut please don’t and try holding your breath for three minutes instead]
“Ah, no! When did I say I was uncomfortable? It’s just that I’m concerned for you.”
“In that case, shall we eat together?”
[Never seen the room host being so manipulated before. lol lol lol]
[She’s usually the one pulling the strings]
[Wow… but this is Paxlian-level. She probably made some boys cry back in school]
[ ㄴYou’re wrong ㄴShe mentioned she doesn’t have a boyfriend]
[ ㄴShe doesn’t have a boyfriend (but selectively chooses male friends to hang out with)]
[Let’s stop the negativity. ㅠㅠㅠㅠ]
“Then shall we eat Ma La Tang? Or pasta instead?”
Both Ma La Tang and pasta — the mere mention of them makes me dread them as food options.
I didn’t have the same relationship as in my previous life; this time around, I had managed to build a healthy friendship.
Because of this, I often had plans with friends, and every time we met, these were the foods we ended up eating.
“Then let’s go with Rosé…”
“I don’t really like Tteokbokki.”
“Hmm? Is there anything else you’d like to eat?”
“Uh… how about Gukbap? Or Jeyuk (marinated pork belly)?”
[?]
[Isn’t she a middle school girl?]
[Soft fatty pork cutlet… soft fatty pork cutlet… soft fatty pork cutlet…]
[After getting turned away from Ma La Rosé Tang, she’s asking for Gukbap or Jeyuk (15-year-old middle school girl)]
[I feel like I’m about to boil into soup… I feel like I’m about to boil into soup…]
[Even if we were boiling into soup, we are capable enough to become adept teaching assistants.]
“Huh? Is that okay?”
Hanbyeori gave me a concerned look.
She seemed worried that I might be pushing myself for her sake, but my thoughts were completely different.
‘Those two options are such perfect foods – not just fat or carbs, but you can eat vegetables with them too.’
Plus, they’re delicious and don’t stick together. No comparison to the usual Ma La Rosé talk, these are 100% better foods.
“Ah, how about meat?”
“Meat?”
“I received a gift last week, so please wait just a moment.”
[Acknowledged. Queen Seo Ha is taking over from here. Any objections?]
[Queen Seo Ha! Queen Seo Ha! Queen Seo Ha!]
[Is somebody tearing through the fridge like it’s wartime? lol ]
[What was that sound of something falling just now? lol lol]
After a few minutes, Hanbyeori returned with something.
[Are you sure that’s not pork rib cutlets?]
[How on earth do you get such a gift?]
“Woah, is this not expensive?”
“My parents had some left over and gave it to me before they left.”
It was a gift set from an expensive meat shop known for its pricey cuts.
“Everyone sees that? I also receive extravagant gifts.”
[Hanbyeori deserves one star.]
[Gift (parents worried their daughter might starve so they dumped it on her)]
[True lol]
[Let’s proceed to a meat eating session]
“Then, I should prepare the setting first…”
Typically, for a food broadcast, you would prepare all the food in advance before starting the actual eating segment. It’s the standard procedure. In the “Masterpiece Invitations Corner” (Jangin Chodaesogak), most streams involve delivered meals so the preparation is easier, but…
“Then, shall I grill the meat?”
With raw meat, there would need to be someone grilling it.
“Oh no, I live here so it’s my job.”
“I’m good at grilling meat.”
To be honest, I didn’t think Hanbyeori would be capable of properly grilling the meat. Last life, during a workshop we attended together, she had burned every piece of meat. It was a complete disaster.
[Save Seo Ha ㅠㅠㅠ]
[Hey Han, just go grill that meat]
[Let’s just leave the host to grill it and Seo Ha can hang out with us, right?]
[ AGREED]
[ AGREE ]
[But can the room host even grill?]
[You’re right;; Remember when she tried to make sweet and sour pork and almost caused a fire? PTSD coming back already]
“Then, let’s get a burner out to grill right here?”
“A burner?”
“Yeah, I think I have one I bought last time when I attempted camping.”
[This woman is impressive]
[Host owns no scissors or clothes hangers but sure does own a burner]
[Stop being mean. She doesn’t even have a pen either! lol]
“First, we should move the keyboard and mouse over here.”
Perhaps because she’s professional, Hanbyeori naturally began setting things up. The monitor with the camera was moved to the back, while the sub-monitor for checking chats was set to the side. The keyboard and mouse were pushed to the corner, and the burner was placed right in the middle of the table.
“We are eating rice, right?”
“Koreans eat rice with everything!”
While Hanbyeori was warming up the instant rice, I finished the remaining setup.
It was times like these that living in a dorm and eating here made life easier.
It was a perfect arrangement even if I said so myself.
“Wow, you know what they say – beautiful people clean up beautifully too.”
Hanbyeori nodded as she returned, and then proceeded to pour sauce onto the plates I had stacked one by one.
“This sauce is so good, plus they give it as a package deal, nice.”
As she placed the frying pan over the burner and waited for it to heat up, the microwave timer went off, signaling that the instant rice was done.
“Hold on.”
Hanbyeori, who had started to get up, looked at me.
“How old are you?”
“Me? I’m 15 years old…”
“Sis, I’m 25 years old. The instant rice is over there, go bring it.”
[A legend of a strict elder has appeared lol]
[The broadcast title said “15 years old,” right? lol ]
[Strict-]
[Older Generation lol lol lol]
[She’s the guest, doesn’t that make us the real ones lol]
[She’s not even human lol]
It was a prank I had faced a few times in my previous life as well.
As I stood up smiling…
“Do you have any complaints?”
“Instead, I’m glad to be eating with sis.”
“No, then I sound like some sort of villain now…”
I said this as I left my seat.
*
‘You’ve gotta be kidding…you need to microwave it for 3 minutes for two servings, not two minutes.’
Even in this life, Hanbyeori’s incredible living skills kept me in awe as I restarted the microwave.
Midway through waiting, I noticed sounds from the opposite room, so I went to check.
“Nice.”
I found my father, as quietly as possible, completely absorbed in a game.
I thought he’d be at some nearby cafe or something.
‘Thinking about it, collecting old games was Hanbyeori’s hobby.’
I remembered from my previous life that upon Hanbyeori’s recommendation, I visited her place a few times to play games. She mentioned that she only collected them and didn’t have the time to play them, and she would invite people who showed even the slightest interest.
Seeing him like this, I decided it would be rude to disturb, so I turned back to take the finished instant rice and return.
“Are you back? How does it look? Is it ready to grill yet?”
“Seems like enough, right?”
“Should we place it? Are we really going to place it…?”
With a sizzling sound, the meat began to cook…
“Huh? Why is there so much smoke?”
“Exactly… Cough, cough.”
[This is maddening]
[Open the door! Open the door! Open the door!]
[Hey Tenlien, why won’t you open the window?]
[This is ridiculous lol lol lol]
It turned out we were grilling with both the door and window closed.
Was it because it’s been a while since we’ve been together? It even felt like my intelligence had gone down.
Before the fire alarm went off, I quickly opened the window to vent out the smoke and finished grilling the rest of the meat.
“Wow, don’t you think this is a really good job grilling?”
The gift set contained prime ribeye, pork ribs, and sirloin. Among these, the pork ribs were grilled by Hanbyeori. Yeah, the costly and delicious pork ribs.
[Woah~ they’re burning up this expensive meat lol]
[It’s so hard to look so inexperienced like that without intentionally trying]
[Are you frying the meat? lol lol]
[If you’re feeding someone this, isn’t it basically child abuse?]
Where did the marbling-rich ribeye go? And what was this mysterious dish neatly placed on the plate?
It wasn’t far off from calling it something that had died from burning in hell.
“…Looking at it again, it does seem a bit burnt?”
{User has donated 1000 won}
A little bit…?
[Host, remember your conscience]
[🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥]
[The host is even better at burning things than us ㅇㅇ]
[🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥<<If you think someone is better at burning stuff than us, good luck]
“Can I try grilling once?”
“Uh, uh… sure.”
Seizing the moment when the audience sentiment was spiraling downward, I smoothly took over the tongs.
This chilly and weighty feeling…
It’s time to return as the official LCK unity meeting chef.
.
.
.
[Wow, look at the color]
[Who grilled it before is so different… right? Who grilled it before is so different… right?]
[If this isn’t Yasuo, what is it? If this isn’t Yasuo, what is it? If this isn’t Yasuo, what is it]
[What’s going on? Why is the host sitting there letting someone else grill?]
[By “someone,” show due respect to our King God Queen Seo Ha]
“Kimchi is set, we’ve got sauce, and the rice is ready.”
Hanbyeori adjusted the plates so the food came out well on camera.
Broadcaster life is not easy after all.
“Then shall we start eating?”
“Sure. Sis, please go first.”
“…Wow! It’s delicious. You really did a good job grilling!”
Only after seeing Hanbyeori enjoying the meal did I finally pick up my chopsticks.
