Chapter 132
[Did the Miro simultaneous viewing start??]
(Link)
It started, so I’m posting it hahaha
-What are you watching?
N: Bokker
N: Ah, that one? lol
-Isn’t the simultaneous viewing a total free-for-all?
N: That’s right
[Foreigner <— How much is this guy consuming, seriously?]
Do the snacks I bought in Korea still remain in Miro's house??
-Really bought a ton
-From the photos, it doesn’t look like that Japanese person eats much
N: Is there a photo? Isn’t it a VTuber?
N: That place exposes everything from the past to the present
N: The motherland is different hahaha Is she cute?
N: Yeah, she's in the top 1% VTuber ranks
N: Damn, can someone check Miro's red pill?
N: Miro is totally unscathed hahaha
-She just eats less, I guess
N: So?
N: Yeah, doesn't snack much
N: From the upper body cam last time, she seems to manage her diet
[Miro: I ate tteok, twigim, and sundae with a younger sibling]
High school girl uh-oh
-Is she a high school girl?
N: If she's younger than Miro, she's either 20 or a high school girl, right?
N: No, isn't she a boy?
N: What kind of guy would eat tteok, twigim with Miro?
N: Seriously
-I also want to be Miro's younger sibling
N: How old are you?
N: 32 years old
N: ???
N: Hahaha this guy was in 2nd grade when Miro was 20
N: Seriously? Wow hahahaha
N: Miro is surprisingly young
[This Bokker CG is not bad]
I'm a current astronaut, and the direction is impressive
-Yeah, you're a directing genius
-Since it's an SF, they put in a lot of effort on that side
[Holy sh*t, he's really handsome]
Please stop it
-Really hahaha
-I feel like I could guess who it is without saying a word
[Miro, why is he so talkative?]
Is simultaneous viewing usually like this? Damn, I just want to watch the movie but it keeps talking
-Really hahahahaha
-Miro does talk a lot, indeed
-Really can't focus
[Miro, are you really watching a movie for the first time?]
I’ve seen it before, and I’m guessing everything
-Damn, spoilers
-But it’s a bit predictable
-It’s practically the definition of a predictable movie
N: Yeah, it’s really about the direction and the acting
[Miro, are you going to cry watching this?]
Even so, it’s somewhat touching,
-Are you going to cry?
N: Really hahaha
-If Miro cries, I’ll throw a hamburger at him
N: Just kidding
N: Just kidding
N: I’ll throw a stable asset at him
N: Make sure you do it
-Not even Miro, but if Anna goes, she won't move at all
N: Anna will cry hahaha
N: Really, Anna cries hahaha
N: Does Anna cry well?
N: Just at an age overflowing with sensitivity
N: Damn, Anna is in her 20s
N: ?
[So, going to a movie theater with Miro feels like this all the time?]
That seems pretty annoying hahaha
-I’m fine with it
-Miro’s boyfriend hears this whispered
N: Wow
N: That's kinda cool hahaha
-Nani, does Miro have a boyfriend?
N: Yes, that’s me
N: You bastard
-I think it’s better to keep talking about what I’ve already seen
N: Really hahaha There’s a thrill in listening
[Bokker <— Honestly, it’s worth watching lol]
I understand why it has ten million views
-Really worth watching
-It’s not bad for killing time
[Ah, the bastards are real]
If the protagonist seems in danger, there are still a few minutes left in the movie—
As soon as someone shows up, it's like “Oh, that person does such and such later”
Is this guy a critic?
-Really hahahahaha
-He’s surprisingly accurate hahaha
N: He’s really good at guessing
[Miro is crying hahaha]
He’s really crying hahaha
Damn it hahaha, pretending to be calm while analyzing
-Really?
-Nonsense
N: It's true (Link)
N: Why is it true?
[???: You have to cry here]
(Miro’s clip of sniffing)
He really cried hahaha
-This guy is real hahaha
-Act like it’s sentimental while making that juice, for real...
-To be honest, it would be tear-jerking if Ji-yun saw it
N: Really hahaha
N: ???: Sister, this is sentimental material
N: ???: You see, you almost died and returned to Earth, and you’ll meet your sister again in an emotional scene, right?
N: The fact that he guesses everything while crying is so funny
[Throwing hamburgers, damn]
(Hamburger gift icon)
(Hamburger gift icon)
Miro, you damn brat, you’re really crying
-Thanks
-77 trillion hahaha
-This is going to get delisted hahaha
[But Miro really crying...]
(Miro’s clip of sniffing)
What’s going on with this thing, I can’t use it here
-Really...
-I opened a memo pad
N: Really hahaha
-Everyone, take your hands off the keyboard
[Gathering all the tears from the Celestial Realm]
(Clips of the Celestial Realm members crying)
Can fingersnap be possible?
-Thank you...
-So recommendable hahaha
-Miro is really something
N: Really... the way he snares while feeling embarrassed is kind of adorable
N: Oh dear
[Miro’s voice is surprisingly good]
It’s nasal, but it kind of has its flavor
-For real
-Bokker <— Just the GOAT of the movie world
[Miro hates men?]
When you’re talking about freezing or defrosting stuff while Chang-sik is suffering, but when Ji-yun cries, he spills too hahaha
-This is really a controversy
-It’s just a female trait
-Isn't it natural for a person to cry seeing Ji-yun cry?
N: Really
[Ji-yun <— Korea's best actress, totally recommendable hahaha]
Miro is crying, and everyone can see it hahaha
-For real...
-Just the GOAT in the historical timeline of actors
-Chang-sik < Ji-yun
[But who the heck is this Miro?]
How can someone who can cry not react when the Celestial Realm song gets released?
-For real hahaha
-Celestial Realm song release < Ji-yun’s acting
N: If it’s Ji-yun, there’s no helping it...
N: Damn, it’s Ji-yun again...

It’s been quite a while since I finished recording "Quiet Lake" in Hyeon-su's Workshop.
So much time has passed that we’ve accomplished a lot.
We recorded the live session in earnest with the members, did one more promotional broadcast for the mobile game "Girl's Pact," and even visited Hyeon-su's Workshop for a featuring recording.
However…
“When will the music video be finished?”
[Sorry… We’ve been trying to improve the quality.]
As I spoke on the phone, I looked out the window.
It was now completely winter, with even the leaves falling off, yet the music video wasn’t finished.
I never expected it would take so long to produce the music video.
“No, there’s no need for you to apologize, but when should we announce it?”
Originally, we were supposed to announce it by now, but it seems it’ll take a bit longer.
[Well… since it’s already late, how about we announce it right after the year-end live?]
“Hmm… right after?”
[Yes, the plan is to show the music video immediately after the live ends.]
Oh… indeed.
That way, we can make a deep impression on many people's eyes and ears right from the announcement.
“That’s fine, but…”
Do we really need to?
After all, the people coming to watch the Celestial Realm live would likely seek out Miro’s original song on their own.
And above all, the year-end live is something we all prepared together, right?
I wouldn’t want to steal the spotlight at the end.
“I still think it might be better to reveal it before the live.”
[Before the live?]
“If I attract attention with an original song, wouldn't more people watch on the day of the live?”
Miro's original song's view count will rise gradually, but the real-time viewer count for the year-end live has its limits.
It would be better to use the original song to grab attention and increase the live real-time viewers.
[That certainly… then performing the original song during the year-end live would also be a good idea.]
“Oh, that might be tough.”
I had considered it, but it seems it would be too much.
[Why? I think it would be perfect when it plays.]
“Because there's no one to feature.”
After thinking about it, Hyeon-su's part is way too difficult.
Moreover, it wouldn’t suit the members to take the male parts.
And we can't have a male guest for our Celestial Realm year-end live, right?
That would be a total disaster.
[Is that so? That’s a bit disappointing…]
“Not at all. If we’re doing a new song, we’d have to come up with new choreography, and ugh…”
Considering how much we’ve struggled with the live recording, adding a new song on top of that would be killing me.
[Is the live recording very tough for you?]
“Yes, it really feels like killing a person.”
Of course, doing it alone is tough, but doing it with the members is overwhelming.
I mean, there are so many things to choreograph and coordinate, and practicing the dance… it’s a continuous struggle.
[Stay strong. It's almost over, right?]
“That’s true.”
In essence, most of the recording is finished, and just a bit more will lead to editing.
Thinking like this makes me realize how tight the schedule is.
Or maybe everyone is more anxious since it’s the first time for all of them.
After all, it's the first generation, isn't it?
Usually, the first one has to roll through with a lot of headaches.
“Come to think of it, when next year hits, the 2nd generation will be coming out as well.”
[Right? Everyone is nervous.]
Well, they must be nervous.
And honestly, I’m a bit nervous too.
After all, early next year, I’ll have to present a song with the composer, won't I?
Not to mention Hyeon-su's album is also there.
As for the film we shot… I guess that might take a while, as I heard they haven’t finished all the filming yet.
[But still, the 2nd trainees are excited while being nervous. It’s just the beginning, right?]
“Yeah, the start is always thrilling.”
I agree on that point.
Every beginning is exciting after all.
Now that I think about it, when I first said I’d become a VTuber, I might have had a bit of excitement in my heart.
No, there must have been some excitement.
Thinking back, I was surely confident it would work out in the end, right? Clearly, the thrill was stronger than the anxiety.
Well, thinking back now, I feel like we may have been a bit spontaneous back then.
No matter how much Kim Soo-hyun (Female) prepared, she thought about becoming a VTuber.
Yet, looking back at that choice now, it’s undeniable that it was an incredibly good choice.
[So what’s up? What I sent you.]
“What’s there to say? It's just an announcement.”
[Doesn’t it bring a rush of emotions or something?]
“I’ll feel that on the day itself.”
Saying that, I looked at the screen displayed on the monitor.
Before I could even ask about the music video, I had received an announcement from the manager.
Is it going to be posted on the fan cafe?
My room's viewers will likely ignore the announcement, so I’ll have to turn on a broadcast to let them know.
[There’s not much time left.]
“Yeah, you’re right.”
There’s really not much time left until the live.
That also means this year will be ending soon.
“Let’s give it our all once more.”
After all, it’s been almost a year of hard work.
I aim to put an impressive period at the end of it all.
