Chapter 59
Normally <If You Turn It On Even the King> was actually an almost raw broadcast.
Not only does it not use profanity but the atmosphere of the cast is light almost as if they are flying and is characterized by moderately free play.
however.
‘Why is everyone frozen?’
Seoyeon became a little puzzled.
The atmosphere was somewhat stiff for everyone.
Is it because he is an actor?
But they had their reasons.
‘Wow it’s really pretty.’
‘Are they really the same species?’
The atmosphere created by Seoyeon’s appearance naturally muted their mouths.
In addition Hwang Jun-ho who was the main host was quite embarrassed as Hwang Jun-ho was.
‘You can really play games right?’
Should we have discussed in advance what games we could play?
In the past I tended to say things in advance.
However the broadcast concept gradually changed to a rawer one with decisions made on the spot by spinning roulette.
‘Still if that guy had an idea he would have chosen the right one.’
Hwang Jun-ho thought so and brought a roulette board with wheels.
“Now first of all let’s take the time to select the game that will be broadcast today.”
The roulette game was covered with stickers but it seemed like they were disclosing the game if they got caught by spinning the wheel.
‘Please something easy!’
No matter how you look at it Seoyeon had a face that had nothing to do with games.
Of course these days there are many celebrities who promote the concept of being a fashion fanatic or a fashion gamer but Seoyeon’s looks don’t even suit those types of fashion.
It was natural to doubt Seoyeon’s gaming skills.
“What game do you want me to play?”
When Hwang Jun-ho asked that question.
“I am confident in any game.”
Seoyeon said triumphantly.
It seemed as if the possibility of not being able to play the game was even remotely possible.
Actually this wasn’t an unfounded guess.
Seoyeon’s overwhelming physical strength proved it.
Isn’t it natural for a TS body to have overwhelming reaction speed?
At least she was confident that Seoyeon would do well no matter what she did with her body.
‘But when I think about it I haven’t played a game since I was born again.’
In fact if I were to make an excuse for this it would be because most of the games had already seen the ending.
I completed games without much inspiration because I couldn’t feel the emotions properly.
Memories of him still remain vivid.
In other words Seo-yeon has memories of the video media she saw in her past life.
That is information about creative works related to dramas or movies or the entertainment industry.
And some of them were about games.
When I tried to think of such things everything came to mind without any omissions so the game’s story and ending strategy came to mind clearly as well.
Of course there are some things that are gradually being forgotten.
‘I played a lot of games in my past life so I’ll be able to play well this time too.’
So he is confident.
If only I had strategies and memories and this invincible TS body!
She played roulette with that thought in mind.
[Out Crazy 2]
The game begins with the main character a journalist infiltrating a mental hospital.
In other words it was a horror game.
“?”
Of course Seoyeon was a game I had never played before.
Including my past life.
***
An unexpected horror game.
A roulette where you can feel the malicious intent of the production team.
But Hwang Jun-ho was secretly impressed.
If the target audience is people who don’t know much about games horror games can produce better pictures.
Of course it was roulette so it was luck.
For reference other games that belong to roulette are commonly called pot games.
Most of them were so-called evil games.
Seoyeon probably didn’t know.
It was a good thing I got caught in a horror game.
“Miss Seoyeon have you ever played a horror game?”
“…I don’t think there is one.”
“oh my.”
Hwang Jun-ho slapped his forehead glanced at the production crew and raised his thumb.
Horror games are inherently fun only for people with low tolerance.
‘It’s easy to take over naturally.’
If you give up and say you can’t do it another cast member can take over.
For reference Hwang Jun-ho was confident in puzzles such as horror games.
“Okay then let’s begin. “Please check the time.”
Other cast members also sat side by side on the prepared sofa.
Seoyeon who was the first to take over the gamepad swallowed dry saliva while listening to the gloomy background music.
The sight was so solemn that it became quite a painting.
‘Hmm but the reaction has to come out deliciously.’
Producer Choi Kwang-soo who was filming Seo-yeon was a bit worried about that.
Because he is an actor I thought he would prioritize his own image.
Entertainment isn’t as enjoyable if you don’t do it right.
The game started with such concerns.
Seoyeon said as she watched the reporter enter the gloomy psychiatric ward.
“It looks dangerous just by looking at it so why go in?”
“Oh I have to watch the whole episode.”
“If something happened in the previous episode shouldn’t we avoid it more?”
Pure question.
Everyone was speechless at Seoyeon’s words.
Well it’s not wrong.
Life is the most important thing.
“But Seoyeon are you confident in horror games?”
“Me?”
Seoyeon began to move through the dark ward operating a slightly unfamiliar pad.
In fact even though it was a horror game Seoyeon didn’t really feel it.
Of course.
“I have never felt fear in my life.”
“…”
Hwang Jun-ho closed his mouth at such a remark as if he were the greatest general of the world.
Aside from that he wasn’t wrong.
In her past life she didn’t know fear because of her illness and as a result Seo-yeon had dull emotions that she couldn’t learn properly.
“So even if you say this is scary….”
Seo-yeon actually manipulated the character by speaking in a calm tone in the early part.
Unstoppable steps moving through the gloomy ward.
That was when the cast thought ‘Oh they must be really confident in horror games.’
“not really.”
[Kyaaaa!!]
The so-called jump scare.
Suddenly when I turn around the alley I see a strange creature popping out.
Bye!!
The sound of something breaking was heard.
“huh?”
When Hwang Jun-ho lowered his gaze he saw the pad held in Seo-yeon’s hand.
The joystick for moving directions was gone.
If you look closely it didn’t disappear it broke and flew away.
‘Did that thing break?’
That question occurred to me at that moment.
The cast members who were watching it from behind had similar thoughts.
The moment the monster came out Seoyeon’s thumb pushed the joystick and it broke and flew away.
Of course the character Seoyeon was manipulating died.
“That’s Miss Seoyeon?”
“Joe there was a slight mistake.”
The reaction was somehow different from before.
My pupils were shaking and my voice was shaking.
“I guess you were very surprised.”
“I’m not surprised.”
Seoyeon received a new pad.
‘Has the durability of the pad weakened significantly?’
Everyone looked at the broken pad.
It was just surprising that the stick part broke cleanly.
The game started in earnest with such a small problem.
It started from then.
“Next to side next to side!”
“…!!”
“No if you go there! “Roll roll roll!”
“I pressed it. It didn’t roll…”
[Kyaaaa!!]
Pop!!
The part where the jumping square appeared was the section where the pads were changed.
The condition of the numerous game pads lying on the floor was very miserable.
The joystick flies.
The evasion machine was dented and not pressed.
“hmm.”
Producer Choi Kwang-soo thought as he put the broken pads into a box.
‘Didn’t I find the wrong broadcast?’
At first it was a coincidence.
If this happens two or three times you have no choice but to know this.
How on earth do gamepads all work?
I had to quickly bring spares.
Even.
‘Why don’t you give up?’
No of course it was fun to watch.
A passionate performance that puts more effort into one’s body than expected… or is it really a passionate performance?
He seems really scared.
“…If you’re scared should I do it?”
Four hours since filming began.
Gong Tae-gyun one of the cast members quietly spoke to us.
“Joe I’ll try a little more.”
“You seem unfamiliar with pad operation….”
“The pad can’t keep up with my reaction speed.”
Oh does that happen?
No looking at it objectively the operation was only immature but the reaction speed was fast.
When you see the pad start flying almost at the same time as the creature pounces.
‘This can’t be happening like this.’
Seoyeon was desperately concentrating on the game.
Ever since I was born I have never once thought that I would not be able to play a game.
Isn’t it common sense that TS makes you good at games?
If I can’t play games with TS does that mean I’m TS?
She’s just a woman.
The world has collapsed and common sense has been denied.
Anyway Seoyeon felt this unexpected gender conflict while playing the game.
[Crung kaaaaa!!]
“Aaaah!!”
The unprecedented appearance of a bizarre-looking mid-boss level creature.
At that shocking visual Seoyeon screamed for the first time in her life.
Quang!
And at the same time Seoyeon’s pad was finally destroyed in half.
Watching the plastic fragments flying in all directions Hwang Jun-ho thought he was seeing a truly amazing sight.
With the game over Seoyeon’s body fell sideways.
is she dead?
It was a scene so fierce that it made me think that way.
Let’s all look at Seoyeon with that kind of heart.
“Please do me a favor.”
I wondered if there was anything to despair about in games like that.
Seoyeon collapsed and spoke helplessly.
At that time six hours had passed since filming began.
***
So after a fairly successful filming Even King aired.
Because the viewership ratings were so low it was not a big issue at first.
However the atmosphere took a turn when Seoyeon’s video with various shorts and memes was circulated on the Internet.
When The King of Right Now aired it recorded 0.8% slightly higher than the previous viewership rating.
The rebroadcast posted on the official YouTube channel garnered over 1 million views in just one week.
– Is that a fashion gamer? Not a fashion gorilla?
– This is my first time seeing a pad break like that.
– I am an active fitness trainer. I tried to no avail so I hit it with a hammer and barely broke it.
– If that thing breaks with your grip who will use the pad?
– Shouldn’t he be exercising not an actor?
-「I have never felt fear in my life」
– I definitely don’t think I’ve ever felt it.
Since he was an actor who has been a hot topic recently he was mentioned a lot.
The fact that they were young and wearing school uniforms also became a hot topic.
– Judgment for wearing school uniform ㅆㅅㅌㅊ
– It’s so funny how everyone averts their eyes lol.
– He seems like a fashion gamer but he secretly knows a lot. I wonder if it’s real.
– It doesn’t seem like you’re bad at games.
– Ring fit was Jin-guk at the end so just hit the actor.
– You cleared it in the end. Have a drink.
Although she failed once Seoyeon eventually succeeded in clearing the game.
That time is a whopping 8 hours and 45 minutes.
It was a little slow but considering the delay caused by breaking the pad it was a fairly decent time.
Even Ring Fit which passed like a mini game at the end is worth talking about.
For reference the Ring Fit ended quickly without a single failure or death.
‘It’s not a pure game.’
Everyone gave a thumbs up during the ring fit but Seoyeon was depressed.
Because she wanted to be praised for being good at the game.
I’ll have to practice later.
When the broadcast ended Seoyeon made that promise to herself.
anyway.
Although her intentions were a little different from Seo-yeon’s she was successful in getting word out in the community and creating a positive image.
Image of Princess Yeonhwa.
It was clear that she would help neutralize that image for future villains.
“Seo-yeon! CF came in!”
Seo-yeon who was sullen while watching a rerun of <If You Turn It On Even a King> her manager Park Eun-ha spoke to her with a bright smile.
She felt awkward at first but fortunately she quickly became familiar with Seoyeon.
In a way they are like her older sister and younger brother now.
“…What kind of CF is this?”
“Gamepad commercial.”
“I don’t.”
An advertisement that roughly boasts about the durability of the game pad.
Of course she had no intention of doing anything to Seo-yeon.
So a week later.
It was just around the time that Seoyeon came to her senses.
“Did you hear that?”
“Well actor Hwang Min-hwa….”
One thing came to Seo-yeon’s ears.
That’s Nova Entertainment’s signature star.
It was news that Hwang Min-hwa was leaving Nova Entertainment.
A word from the author (author review)
For your information I can’t play horror games…
