[TS] Starting the Broadcast

Chapter 13 - Joint Broadcast (2)



“… can’t. Please remember!”
It’s chilling.
A dagger flies and pierces my chest.
I’m afraid to look at the chat window.
But to smoothly run the broadcast, I had to check the viewers’ reactions almost in real-time.
A careful sidelong glance.
-Na
-rak
-Na
-rak
-Ugh! Did I wait an hour to hear a man’s goat-like vibration sound?
-Mia-nim is serious. If you don’t put the person who just sang on the blacklist, I won’t stay quiet.

“Come on, someone can be bad at singing. Why blacklist for that!”
Mia pretends to be angry, trying to change the atmosphere.
But it’s difficult.
From the viewer who started with a song to the second participant who made a funny skit video by editing and patching together the voices of the three Miracle people.
Until then, the atmosphere wasn’t bad.
The problem started from the third one.
A participant with clumsy superficial charm completely ruined the atmosphere by attempting hip-hop.
But the bad luck didn’t stop there.
The fourth participant, nervous from seeing the hostile chat window, went off-key during the high notes of the song.
If they had endured and sung until the end, it could have been sublimated into a laughing point, but their mentality broke and they became a fleeing ninja.
It’s a complete downfall.
To change the atmosphere, a strong card needed to be played.
So it was decided to deploy one of the guests.
Which of the three could act impressively to save the broadcast?
After a brief exchange of opinions, with Cle-mumu’s strong assertion and Lark’s agreement, it was decided that Bintz would be deployed first.
The opinions were that Hani, being a beginner who hasn’t even been broadcasting for a month, lacked the inner strength to overcome such a heavy atmosphere.
The same went for Myamya, the variety game BJ.
Although she has quite a bit of experience, in this situation, Bintz, who mainly does visible radio or outdoor broadcasts, would be more suitable than a game-related BJ.
It didn’t matter much who was deployed first, so I just nodded silently.

“Viewers, please calm down. I’ve prepared something amazing.”
What Bintz prepared was a video.
The scale was certainly big.
Claiming it’s the sound of the mountain, scenes of climbing Bukhansan and shouting “Yahoo!” at the summit flow by quickly.
Then, saying it’s the sound of the sea, he shows himself swimming in the Han River with the sound of waves as background.
Additionally, he let us hear an incredibly high-decibel scream as the sound of challenge by bungee jumping himself, and amusingly edited scenes of crouching on the beach waiting for sunrise in Jeongdongjin as the sound of a day beginning.
Lastly, a bonus video maliciously editing interviews conducted with Lark and Cle-mumu as the sound of the heart made viewers laugh.
He added in subtitles that he excluded Mia-nim for fear of being sued.
A cheerful atmosphere.
It seemed he spent some money, as the scale was large and the editing was clean and well-done, making it enjoyable to watch throughout.
Viewers were generally satisfied, and the atmosphere that seemed about to flip over soon settled down.
‘But it’s weak. If he were a viewer, he’d get applause, but for a BJ with some recognition, it shows effort but isn’t at a level to be amazed at.’
The Miracle judges’ evaluations were similar.
Mia said it was fairly good to watch, Lark praised the opportunism and passion to accomplish all that in just a week.
Lastly, Cle-mumu even gave additional points while clapping, saying the atmosphere seemed to have calmed down a bit.
Bintz had to retreat, consoling himself with being currently in first place with 256 points out of 300.

“Now, the next participant is oh! It’s a viewer from our room. I’m really looking forward to it. I believe they’ll show a wonderful performance worthy of my reputation.”
-If it’s a performance fitting Cle-hang brother’s reputation… of course, they poop and poop again!
-Was it Ignite? Was it dying?
-The rabbits seem to have fattened up nicely, brother.

Two more viewer turns pass by uneventfully, and it’s time for another guest to step up.
“I-I’ll go first!”
Seemingly burdened by being last, Myamya quickly raises her hand.
-Is something big coming?
-Our Myamya who’s not embarrassed anywhere!
-Please take care of our Myamya, the keyboard warrior from her room.

What she prepared was a song and video.
She boldly chose a song from a girl group that was hugely popular for their pure and cute concept!
A pre-prepared video plays, showing Myamya dancing with an embarrassed expression.
The song starts with that as background.
Perhaps nervous, her voice trembles slightly, but such a shy attitude rather stimulates men’s hearts.
Viewers respond passionately.
The judges’ evaluations were good too.
In the end, she scored 276 points, a high score.
First place changed.
Then Bintz jokingly protested unfair judging, lifting the atmosphere even more.

“Now we have two more viewer participants left, and then guest Hani-nim’s turn. Is everyone enjoying themselves?”
-Yes!
-Myamya is a baby, we must protect her.
-Today’s content was ruined, but Myamya saved it. Myamya, acknowledge first-class emergency rescue qualification? Acknowledged!
-Cle-mumu brother always has a plan. Cle-mumu brother is a man who knows no defeat.
-Why is Lark talking so little today? I came to see Lark.

“No, I said from the start that I’d just go along today because others are doing so well.”
“You gave me a ride in League of Legends, but it’s troublesome if you do this in reality too.”
“… Where did you leave your conscience today?”

-Kekeke! A bus given by Hyeji?
-The god Mia who gives bus rides even to GM! Is she a goddess!
-Just type ㄹㅇㅋㅋ!

Following Mia’s self-deprecating joke, conversation with the guests continues.
A time to reveal recent broadcast situations and future aspirations.
“Hani-nim will of course go towards gaming, right?”
“Well, it might seem that way because I’ve been playing a lot of games recently, but I’m trying to keep my possibilities open for the future.”
“What? Gaming isn’t your main focus?”
“I can’t say confidently yet, but I’m preparing various things. There’s a lot I want to do besides gaming. When my turn comes later, you’ll be able to understand a bit.”
“Oh… Is this confidence? Hahaha, Myamya-nim, you might need to be nervous?”

Cle-mumu jokingly brushed it off, but the truth is I do want first place.
Because I keep exchanging water balloons for points, I have to worry about living expenses, but if I get first place here, the prize is 500,000 won.
It’s a big enough amount to not brush off lightly!
Bickering conversation between Mia and Bintz continues, and Lark mediates between them.
Feeling the atmosphere has been refreshed a bit, Cle-mumu throws a comment and calls the next viewer participant.
This time it’s rap.
Unlike the strange rap mixed with curses that made the atmosphere awkward earlier, this was a fairly well-known popular rap, so there were viewers in the chat responding positively.
The next participant was singing.
But this participant sang really well.
Lark boasted proudly that they’re a famous viewer from his room.
Saying they appear without fail whenever there’s singing-related content.
They receive a high score and rank second following Myamya.
Currently, the rankings were Myamya in 1st with 276 points, Lark’s room participant in 2nd with 271 points, and Bintz in 3rd with 256 points.
Now it’s the long-awaited final turn.
Cle-mumu throws a comment telling viewers to look forward to it and plays grand background music.
Finally, it’s my turn.
Almost a week has passed since I received Mia’s proposal.
Without wasting even a minute or second, I gave my all solely for this moment.
‘Here I go!’
It’s the first order.
When I send a signal through Discord, the first video I handed over to Cle-mumu in advance fills the center of the broadcast screen.
Simultaneously, a familiar song that anyone in their 20s-30s would recognize stimulates the ears.
The heart-stirring main theme of ‘Detective Conan’.
Viewers’ eyes and ears focus.
Meanwhile, confused reactions appear in the chat window.
-As expected, it’s Conan. The culprit is among us!
-But why suddenly a Conan video?
-Conan-fused.

When viewers’ confusion reaches its peak, the music in the video turns off.
A sudden silence.
Simultaneously, the screen flickers, and the small figure of Conan appears.
And I open my mouth.
“My name is Conan. A detective.”
“…!”
“Wow! It’s exactly the same.”
“Shh, shh! It’s not over yet.”

They might doubt if it’s lip-syncing.
Because other BJs also didn’t know what I had prepared, the Discord chat window rapidly rises with excitement and surprise.
And it was the same for viewers.
-Is this real? Did the person called BJ Hani really say this?
-Nah, it can’t be. It’s exactly the same as the voice from the cartoon.
-From what I hear, it’s very similar, but the tone is subtly different. The impersonation is insane.
-Am I tone-deaf? Why can’t I distinguish?

It’s time to calm everyone’s confusion.
“I’m high school detective Nam Hani. I went to an amusement park with my childhood friend and classmate Mia, and witnessed Lark-nim and Cle-mumu-nim, dressed in black suits, making a suspicious transaction. Distracted by that scene, I didn’t notice another member approaching from behind and was caught. Cle-mumu-nim made me take a strange drug, and when I came to my senses, I had turned into a child.”
“…!”
“Amazing! Really amazing!”
“Are you a voice actor? From a voice acting background?”

Even the BJs who should refrain from interrupting others’ performances couldn’t hide their surprise and raised their voices.
It’s not 100% the same.
Because the tone of male and female voices is clearly different…
But I produced a voice tone as similar as possible and perfectly copied even the diction and minor habits, so everyone who knows Detective Conan couldn’t help but be surprised.
-Cle-mumu made her take a strange drug ㅓㅜㅑ
-As expected, the culprit was among us!
-God Hani! Is she a goddess! Is she a goddess! Is she a goddess!
-Conan is the truth.

This isn’t the end.
In the heightened atmosphere, the screen transitions once again.
In a dark background, a single cherry blossom petal slowly falls.
Blue concentric circles form as it touches the water surface.
Soon, gentle music starts to play.
“T-This, could it be!”
“No way!”

A masterpiece that was no less popular than Detective Conan… no, even more popular among a slightly older age group!
It wasn’t just liked by girls.
Boys were too embarrassed to say it, but they secretly watched it religiously!
I quietly open my mouth and sing the first phrase.
“We can’t meet. I want to meet you, that’s the sad feeling.”
-Something big is coming. Something big is coming. Something big is coming.
-This is crazy. This place is really crazy!
-She’s a god!
-From today, New Continent TV is conquered by Hani!

The chat window goes wild.
Images of various water balloons densely fill every part of the screen except the center where the video is playing.
I stimulate viewers’ childhood memories while calmly continuing the lyrics.
Happy but unable to return.
Those sweet memories of that time back then.
At this moment, I shone brightly… becoming the protagonist in everyone’s childhood memories.
