Chapter 283


[What’s up with Miro saying the broadcast will be unstable for a while?]

Did she get a boyfriend? Is that why she’s not doing it? Damn, this is sudden!

– Probably has stuff to do at home, you idiot.

– Tsk tsk, what a fuss.

ㄴ I’ve never said that, so don’t make assumptions.

ㄴ For real… it’s a bit unusual.

[Got startled and jumped up while listening to ASMR.]

What the hell is this…

– Hahaha

– I got up too while listening.

[Miro, I knew it from the moment you started that banana nonsense.]

Treating the viewers like monkeys, damn.

– But it was delicious, right?

ㄴ Yeah, it was, but damn…

ㄴ You enjoyed it anyway.

ㄴ Still, damn.

ㄴ Hahaha, sounds like you liked it after all.

ㄴ This person is literally a monkey itself, hahaha.

[Today, watching Miro gently do ASMR, am I the only one feeling weird??]

Ugh… Debui…

– ??

– Damn, hahaha.

– Did you just throw a banana? Hahaha.

ㄴ For real…

ㄴ The monkey kids seem to like it, hahaha.

ㄴ Honestly, it was nice, though.

[Miro, but can’t you seriously do ASMR regularly?]

When it’s done properly, it’s so good!

– Yeah, hahaha.

– Just think, it’s not someone else but Miro doing it, so it’s super exciting!

ㄴ Hahahaha

ㄴ Fact: True.

ㄴ (Miro red pill icon)

ㄴ Wow, hahaha.

[Today’s Miro ASMR highlights]

(Miro cursing for feeling bad clip)

Is that you again? The GOAT of insults…

– I worship you, GOAT…

– The Great Miro.

– Her voice is just cheating, hahaha.

ㄴ For real… she has a radio personality.

[ASMR or not, damn, what if Miro quits being a VTuber?]

I’m scared she might taste the entertainment industry capital and just leave, damn…

– Think about it—if she does ASMR, won’t all those idiots who adore her just turn their heads to male celebrities?

ㄴ You swear too much.

ㄴ For real… what a jerk.

ㄴ You liked it too, you idiot!

ㄴ These jerks all got trolled together, hahaha… this damn comment section.

ㄴ Hahahaha.

[Don’t fuss unnecessarily.]

Miro wouldn’t abandon broadcasting just because she got a boyfriend, right?

She’s probably involved in a major song album project or filming a drama or movie.

– Damn, that’s something to fuss about.

– If it’s celebrity stuff, it’s better than a boyfriend, right?

ㄴ What if she dates while being a celebrity?

ㄴ Don’t say such damn nonsense, you freak.

ㄴ Hahaha, what is this?

ㄴ We’ve reached overload, haha.

[Miro, damn, just wait for her return!]

(Miro cursing clip)

I’ll send this to the broadcasting company, damn it!

– Hahahaha, this person.

– Look at how the viewers are holding Miro back.

– Do you think sending that will have any impact? Hahaha.

[What? Miro isn’t broadcasting starting today?]

Damn, when did she say that?

– No, no, that’s not it.

– Check the board properly.

– I think she just told us in advance that the broadcast cycle might be unstable.

ㄴ How long of a break is she planning?

ㄴ Is it just going to be unstable without any breaks?

ㄴ That means she has other things to do, right?

[But isn’t it the case that if Miro quits, the Celestial Realm goes downhill?]

Isn’t Miro basically the main asset?

– No, no, not exactly, but Miro does symbolize a lot.

ㄴ Yeah, for sure, she’s a pillar.

– Other members also get a lot of viewers.

ㄴ Still, on YouTube, Miro is overwhelming, right?

ㄴ Can’t deny that.

ㄴ For real…

[???: You can step on Miro, right?]

(Anna’s profile picture)

“No, damn it…”

– Hahahaha.

– Oh, now you can’t, huh?

– Her age doesn’t matter, if only Anna were 5 years younger…

ㄴ No hard feelings) Even if she became 5 years younger, Miro would still be younger.

ㄴ Whoa…

ㄴ Don’t lie, damn it, how does aging work?

ㄴ Ugh, damn, these jerks, hahaha.

“Oh, it’s been a while. Welcome.”

“Yeah, nice to see you.”

I came to Ahn Jung-hwan’s office after a long time.

I just wanted to check the complete version and drop off the new song.

Last time, our Miro Family’s pride, the god of composition, Rain, completed the song at an unprecedented speed, unlike her previous teams, and had even finished the recording, but the music video production for Loa and Harbin took too long, so we couldn’t create it.

Considering the track length being much longer than average, it’s only natural that the music video would take longer too.

“Oh dear.”

As soon as I opened the door and stepped inside, I couldn’t help but exclaim.

“It’s been restored?”

“Ahaha….”

The office, which had been spotless during the break, was now back to its original state.

Papers were flying around, and a pile of empty boxes was stacked on one side.

I was shocked the first time I saw it, but now I just think it’s a sign of hard work.

“Looks like everyone was busy.”

“Thank you for noticing that….”

I walked further into the office to the table I always sat at.

Since I often sat here, it was at least a bit cleaned up, so I didn’t have to wait until the things were cleared away like in the past.

“I’m really looking forward to today.”

“Wow, I appreciate you saying that. You will be satisfied.”

As I sat on the sofa and chatted, one of the team members prepared the beam projector.

In a sense, since it was the time when everyone was presenting the fruits of their hard work to the client, everyone’s eyes were glued to the beam projector, and a little while later, the long-awaited music video started playing.

It was the song created by Loa and Harbin, with Lee Seo-yeon as the lyricist.

The track’s name is <Multicolor>.

There were originally many other name candidates, but since the previous two titles were ‘Loneliness’ and ‘Wind’, I thought we should make it two syllables too.

The music video began with anticipation, and various scenes blended well according to the character of the song.

Though it was over five minutes long, which is long for a song, it felt objectively short with seamless transitions of scenes that perfectly matched the two distinct styles of Loa and Harbin, adding richness to the composition.

I felt like the team had improved their skills.

Or maybe they’ve just gotten better at this style.

After the five-ish-minute song music video ended.

Clap. Clap.

“I really love it!”

I clapped out of genuine admiration.

How do they keep creating such excellent work every time?

“Wow, I haven’t worked on such a long song in a while, so I’m relieved it turned out well.”

Ahn Jung-hwan seemed relieved since I was satisfied.

Well, being someone who has confidence in his work, he didn’t seem too nervous about it.

“Yes, it really turned out great. It feels like the visuals are getting better with each passing day.”

“You’re making me blush with such compliments.”

“No, really! You did amazingly again this time. I think I can look forward to it.”

“Oh, last time… ‘Wind’? I saw it too. It turned out well.”

“Oh right. It’s still gaining a lot of views now.”

Since we successfully promoted it through Shorts last time, Jeong-hoon’s song ‘Wind’ is on a steep rise in views, likely to break its previous record.

As expected, Shorts virality is the best. I can totally understand why others do it.

“Seeing it do well makes me feel really proud.”

“Proud? You’ve created even more popular videos, haven’t you?”

Ahn Jung-hwan’s team originally made the music video for the Celestial Realm’s group song.

They’ve also been involved in producing various teams’ song music videos, so they’ve seen even greater success multiple times.

“Still, Miro is an individual, and it’s satisfying watching her grow day by day.”

“Thanks to everyone’s help.”

I really feel that the growth of my YouTube channel is due to many people’s support.

The channel itself is managed by The Six anyway.

As long as I provide the source material, they edit and post the videos without hassle, which is incredibly convenient.

Although a portion of the earnings goes out, at this rate, I feel I won’t have to worry about making a living.

“By the way, I’m glad to hear you’re satisfied with this song too. Can I look forward to seeing the results?”

“Ahaha, don’t worry about that part.”

In fact, after making the Shorts last time, I got a taste for promotion.

In a way, the viewers had a hand in planning together and directly submitted videos through the competition.

The result of such collaboration being successful gives a nice feeling of accomplishment.

“I’ll put in a lot of effort to promote it this time, too.”

I had some ideas prepared.

Since Loa and Harbin made it, I should promote it based on that angle.

Like, “A track composed by a VTuber, original song by a VTuber?!”—that kind of vibe.

“Then I’ll leave it to you. Wow, this time it was really hard. The song’s mood changed in intervals, plus the length…”

It seems it was tough since Ahn Jung-hwan wiped away some imaginary sweat to emphasize the struggle.

Yeah, seeing the music video made it seem like a challenging endeavor.

“Please take care of the next track as well.”

“Yeah, this time, you can take your time. We also need some rest…”

“Excuse me?”

I looked at Ahn Jung-hwan as if to ask what he was talking about.

“I came to drop off the song, you know?”

This is after the featuring recording is done, and the previous music video is completed, so I need to hand it over.

“Oh.”

I heard an exclamation from the back but deliberately ignored it.

So, work? Great, I should welcome it.

Aren’t we workaholic comrades?

“Ah, that’s…”

Ahn Jung-hwan seemed to hesitate for a moment under my gaze but…

“Got it! Let’s buckle up and get started!”

He nodded vigorously again.

“Ugh!”

“Team Leader!”

And eventually, screams from the team at the back were heard, but I closed my eyes and plugged my ears.

Sometimes it’s better not to see or hear anything.
