Early in the morning, the 2nd grade elementary school student Lee Ha-ru woke up and got ready all by herself with a shower and some flower decorations.
“Hey, Lee Ha-ru, where are you off to this early?”
The one calling her in a snappy voice was her sister, Lee Bo-reum.
‘What’s up with that lazy hikikomori changing out of her pajamas and coming into the living room?’
Ha-ru pretended not to hear and tried to ignore her, but when Bo-reum showed signs of getting up from the sofa, she quickly spoke up.
“Uh… what do you want, sister?”
“Answer.”
Again, Bo-reum’s 9-year age difference pressed heavily on her.
Ha-ru hesitated and was left with no choice but to answer her sister’s question honestly.
“I’m going to a friend’s birthday party…”
“How long are you planning to stay?”
“I’ll be there as long as possible! I’m leaving now, so stop talking to me!”
BANG!
When did she even start caring about her own business?
The sisterly squabble was nothing special anymore.
Even Park Manager, who served as their bodyguard, servant, and driver, didn’t find it significant.
“Miss, isn’t it a bit too early to go?”
“I have to go early to see them longer.”
“Your friend probably hasn’t even woken up yet.”
Park Manager’s concern was completely useless.
Because,
“The government must immediately conduct a thorough investigation into the Banjang Bridge disaster!”
“Conduct! Conduct! Conduct!”
“Hello, subscribers! This is Chika News, delivering only the freshest news! We have just arrived at the intersection in front of Samseom Seoul Hospital, where NoName is hospitalized!”
People were causing a ruckus on the street due to direct control from the hospital.
Ha-ru headed to the parking lot, pushing through the sight that made her eyes naturally squint.
“NoName is really popular…”
“Miss, do you know where we should go?”
“Oh, it’s written on the invitation here!”
“Keep that safe.”
Park Manager’s prediction came true.
There were big security guards patrolling all over the hospital entrance.
The moment they were about to enter the hospital, one of them came over and asked the purpose of their visit.
“We’re visiting a friend in the hospital and also celebrating her birthday.”
“Which friend?”
“It’s Na-me! NoName!”
Ha-ru held out the invitation that Na-me had given her, drawn with crayons.
“… This is Seomun B-3. Sending 2 people to the VIP Hall.”
“May we enter?”
“Yes. If you go to the 1st floor, your guardian will be waiting for you. Just take the elevator up with them.”
“Understood. Thank you for your hard work.”
The security guard, looking like a gorilla, kindly opened the door for Ha-ru.
“Wait a sec!”
Just then, a man in a black suit came panting and stopped them.
“I have someone to see in the hospital too! Why won’t you let me in?”
The gorilla security guard glared at the man with a look of disgust.
“Whether you’re a member of the National Assembly or a rapper, I really don’t care. According to hospital guidelines, we can’t let anyone in unless they’re directly invited by a VIP guest. If you’re going to a general hospital, please use that entrance very politely.”
“Come on, how could you not know who I am? This is ridiculous! Didn’t you watch Show Me The Money? And aren’t you from this district? Have you never voted your entire life?”
Clearly, there had been multiple conflicts with this man before, and the voices were raising.
Park Manager decided it was better to hurry inside with the young miss. Who knows what this crazy person might do next.
“Miss, let’s not bother and get in quickly.”
“Yeah, yeah! I need to go see Na-me, hehe!”
Meanwhile, as the dapperly dressed man with a waxy hairstyle and the gorilla guard went back and forth,
“Um… I’m here to see NoName too. And I have an invitation.”
This time, a scruffy young man in gray sweatpants approached, showing an official-looking invitation along with his resident registration card.
“I’ll help check. Hmm… ah! Yes, confirmed. You can follow that party. Oh, I’m sorry, cough cough…”
Seeing the disheveled young man effortlessly enter the hospital, the suited man was left in shock.
He grabbed the security guard by the collar and yelled, “Hey! You mean that guy is a VIP customer? That invitation of his is probably fake too! If you keep doing your job like this, I’ll— AAAAAAHH!”
The man flipped through the air.
The THUD of him landing hard was caught perfectly on the camera of a journalist who had been focused on the entrance.

[Comments]
– Young looking, isn’t he? Total alpha vibes!
└ I’m 16 and as a fellow alpha, honestly embarrassed as hell.
└ 16? What are you doing here? Go study!
└ The age gap is insane, how can he belong to the same generationㅋㅋㅋ
– How did Gangnam residents elect such an MP?
└ How is a rapper even qualified to be an MPㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[Besides Randi, who else got cut off at the entrance?][209]
Starting from this morning, Randi ‘Eom Jun-yong’ has provided some major amusement.
No matter how many times you watch it, in pure entertainment value, he can’t be beaten.
Isn’t he the superstar that drives both fans and haters crazy?
(Randi getting thrown out.gif)
Anyway, let’s find out who else got cut off at the entrance.
‘Jin Yi-cheol’ current representative of the Republican Party.
‘Moon Geum-rae’ current floor leader of the Democratic Party.
‘Seo Il-kyun’ current mayor of Gangnam District.
(…)
‘Kim Lee-jeong-rim’ Member of the Liberty Party.
So who succeeded in getting in, someone that even these people couldn’t surpass?????
(Lee Jo-won doing the Sakuranbo dance.jpg)
Oh, it’s you again! The GOAT of the history of presidents in the Republic of Korea, Lee Jo-won (2,000,000,000,000)!!!!!

Ah… I knew it would be like this. Please leave, JOAT.
[Comments]
– LOL!
– Seriously, that gorilla guard’s Instagram is blowing up!
└ I checked, and it’s all comments from girls;;
└ Ugh, this stupid beauty standard, I need a smoke.
– The drift at the endㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– So who did manage to get in then?
└ No idea?
└ Probably called only their friends; would you want to meet vomit-inducing politicians on your birthday?
Due to the chaos centered around NoName, the hospital made an unprecedented decision to completely block the entrance.
Politicians, instead of quinoa, left to sign and write letters in the flower beds tended by ordinary citizens wishing for her speedy recovery.
[NoName’s Broadcasting Station]

– Happy Birthdayㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
– I hope the broadcast magically turns on
– How long are we supposed to wait here?

-(Manager 1): Ah, everyone
– Honestly, I wonder if she’s slept properly; it’s super noisy.
– ???
– Dae-sal what?
– Are you happy going alone to see NoName!
-(Manager 1): That’s not it
-?
-(Manager 1): NoName said she’d turn on the broadcast for a bit…

The first three teams that Professor Cheon brought along were:
“Na-me! I missed you so much! Happy Birthday!”
The cute girl Seo Yu-na with charming red hair was the first to run in and hug me.
And behind her was Seo Maru, her guardian, who was diligently managing V-tube.
“Hey, Seo Yu-na, how could you hug Na-me when she’s sick? Hurry and come sit here.”
Immediately, Ha-ru, with her neat bob hairstyle, came rushing over, tugging Yu-na’s sleeve to sit on the sofa.
The sunglass-wearing man waiting at the entrance looked like Park Manager, whom I had met before.
And finally, a young man with brown curly hair and round glasses, looking a bit timid, entered the hospital room.
“Um, hello…?”
He was dressed head to toe in matched gray tracksuit and had dark circles that accentuated his haggard appearance; he was tall but extremely skinny.
Just looking at him immediately reminded me of someone.
“Graduate Student save me?”
“Yes, that’s me, Manager 1 Dae-sal! But how did you recognize me right away? Does my voice sound that much like my avatar?”
Is this guy seriously asking? You could identify him as a graduate student from the Korea Magic Institute even from a hundred meters away.
Even though we had known each other for a long time, meeting face to face like this was a new and refreshing experience.
Most of the donations during our earlier days of broadcasting in the PC Bang came from Dae-sal’s wallet, so he’s basically my caretaker before Professor Cheon.
“It’s nice to meet you. Thank you for all your hard work as a manager.”
“Oh no! It’s an honor to meet you, NoName-nim! I keep using polite terms out of habit. You really do look just like your virtual reality avatar.”
And so, we shook hands with Dae-sal.
“But what’s your name?”
“Uh… can’t I just go by Dae-sal? Or as a manager?”
“Hey, I can’t do that. I’m not that rude of a person.”
Isn’t it basic etiquette to say your names when shaking hands?
Dae-sal suddenly took a big breath and looked at me seriously.
“Room Leader, you won’t laugh, right?”
“Who laughs at someone’s name? That’s rude.”
“Right? It really is rude!”
Sometimes, when streamers with the surname ‘Eom’ are mentioned among our viewers, a bunch of them burst into laughter or spam the chat, but at least I wasn’t one of that crowd.
A person’s name should never be a subject of ridicule.
When someone is born into this world, the first word they’re called is likely their name, and the last word they hear before they close their eyes is probably their name too.
If a wizard’s familiar is a wand, then a human’s familiar is their name.
A name determines the existence of a life, and sometimes it confines, and other times it’s used for personal gain.
Some abandon their name to live a new life, while others embark on adventures to reclaim it.
‘NoName’ is also a precious name given to me by my mother so that I could settle safely into this world.
I do not feel ashamed at all that my name is unique or strange. In fact, I’m proud of it.
And since I was born, I think revealing your name to the world is a duty of a child.
“Uh… um… it’s…”
“Yes?”
He spoke in such a tiny voice that I had to ask again.
Dae-sal drooped his shoulders in resignation.
“Haa… My name is Eun-woo.”
“Eun-woo? That doesn’t sound weird at all.”
“It’s Cha Eun-woo.”
PFFF…!
“Hey! You said you wouldn’t laugh, NoName!”
This unexpected situation became the cause for today’s impromptu broadcast.
Wow, I really let my guard down. This is honestly cheating, right?
