Ep.120 Reverse Effect

Sob… I’m sorry, everyone. I’m sorry… I’m sorry!!!”

A studio apartment in Seoul

Chae Na-young, who was clicking her mouse while looking at the computer there, screamed without realizing it.

And she blocked the comment window of the video with tears in her eyes.

The controversial video that she was blocking the comments is a criticism video about Egostic.

“Haa… Seriously, why…”

She sighed deeply.

Chae Na-young, a reporter.

No, she was a reporter, to be exact. Before she got fired this time.

Sitting on the street alone again, she was crying and posting a video clip on the video-sharing platform. The video that she did the best on current affairs.

With few subscribers, it’s barely a mouthful, but it was her only hope at the moment.

This is a channel that even when she worked part-time at a convenience store, she still worked hard to maintain. And the new video that she uploaded… has been terrorizing with dislikes.

“…I mean, is Egostic a saint? Is he a saint?!”

She screamed in spite of herself.

The video she uploaded this time was a video criticizing Villain Egostic.

To be precise, it was to criticize those who followed him in an ignorant way. Well, he’s a villain. So why don’t people criticize him, even the terrestrial?

So she decided that she would step up first and pioneer the Blue Ocean.

Honestly, she was confident. When there are not many people who curse at Egostic yet, if she took the lead, she could absorb all the anti-fans who criticize Egostic.

And the result

was a disaster.

“…Ha. I’m doomed. This was my only hope.”

She cried in spite of herself at the thought.

The number of views is dropping every time anyway. Now there’s no way for her to earn a living.

On the verge of not being able to pay even her monthly rent, she was on the verge of collapsing after receiving hate and malicious comments.

“…Gosh. Should I just stop everything?

And she.

Soon she muttered with eyes that had lost focus.

Haha, it won’t work anyway.

Should I have bought a lottery ticket?

Gosh. How do I pay the rent this time?

When she was there with such hollow eyes.

Ding-. She got a message.

“…What the?”

She opened her phone.

She rubbed her eyes for a moment.

“…What is this? Is it a dream?”

[DH sponsored $10,000]

[Hello, I’m always watching your videos^^ I hope you don’t lose your faith and continue to make videos like this. I especially liked this video. Don’t you want to do business with me?]

“What?”

She dropped her phone from her hand without realizing it.

***

“Da-in, I don’t think that’s a good idea.”

“No, it’s a great idea.”

“I don’t think so…”

I shook my head and said to Seo-eun.

Well, this is the only way now.

And this is the most efficient.

It’s weird that there’s no such thing as a media company that curses Egostic in Korea.

I looked it up separately, and I don’t want people to rush in and terrorize them with dislikes when someone writes a little critical article. Ever since I realized I was baptized, I finally felt it. This needs to change a little bit.

My goal is to be a villain who gives Stardus hardship to grow.

In fact, it’s okay if only Stardus think I’m a villain. Everything I do is for Stardus.

However, if everyone doesn’t curse me like the current situation, Stardus may wonder. She could just suspect herself. Since everyone else doesn’t really hate Egostic, is Egostic really a villain? This kind of thought.

Of course, I don’t believe our Stardus would think so. Stardus is full of justice and wouldn’t have had such a ridiculous doubt against a vicious villain like me, like everyone else. However, there’s not one place where they curse at me.

That’s why I decided.

Yeah, let me set up a broadcasting company.

I’m creating a channel that specializes in criticizing Egostic.

It’s okay to have at least one of these in Korea, right?

As soon as I thought so, I ran into a problem again.

But, I don’t have time for that. It’s hard trying to do everything from start to end.

Something caught my eye while I was thinking.

A woman who uploaded a criticism video about me was getting bombarded with dislikes.

Unlike the ugly comment box, the video is pretty well-made. Her editing skills are clean, and her voice is clear like a public anchor.

Watching her video as if I was drowning in it, I realized something.

….Wait. Come to think of it, I don’t have to do it myself, I just have to train this woman to make videos about me.

“……”

I immediately put the idea into action.

Okay, I sent her a jaw-dropping amount of donation.

Shall we have a deep conversation?

***

“Phew…”

Chae Nayoung.

She kept fumbling without realizing it, and then she flabbergasted herself.

Yeah, you can’t just get likes only.

Let’s get to work.

“……Yes!!!”

She jumped out of bed without realizing it.

Okay.

Even in her life, which seemed to be going to end soon, a light of savior fell down.

She got a sponsor.

That person recognized her ability

The mysterious supporter suddenly sponsored her $10,000.

As she was so surprised, she got in touch with the sponsor with trembling hands.

Soon she had a lot of conversations with him.

The anonymous man asked her to just call him by his ID [DH]. He said he loved her most recent video. Yeah, the video where she criticized Egostic.

While saying that, he said that all he had left was money, so he would have her on full support, so she can just dig up Egostic. He will watch the quality of the coming-up content and send her more support. No, he might invest more.

That’s right.

She was chosen by a person who is believed to be a second-generation chaebol*. *TN: A term is used to call ‘Rich people’ in Korea.

“Thank you… Thank you…”

She muttered with appreciation toward the mysterious sponsor.

Honestly, she felt like she was dreaming. Is this real? All of a sudden, money is rolling in.

And she has respect for the sponsor.

So… is this love?

She’s now almost worshipped her sponsor. A lowly person like me… How could such thing…

“Yeah… It’s not the time to be like this”

She sprang up from her seat.

This opportunity

She can’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Never.

The reason why the sponsor picked her is because of the video of her dissing Egostic.

In other words, she needs to pull herself together not to let him down.

And immediately that day with the sponsored, no, invested money, she rented a studio.

Okay. I’m Chae Nayoung.

I will definitely show my potential to my sponsor and be recognized.

I’m a woman who keeps my word.

There’s no one in the world who can diss Egostic better than herself.

***

A week has passed.

“Haa… Haa…”

After finishing the final editing, Chae Na-young collapsed in front of the computer.

“…I’m all worn out…”

She’s confident that she put everything she could into making a video.

With the logo, it’s not an exaggeration to say that the quality is like the 9 o’clock news on public television.

This high-quality, highly public-confidence video was filled with only cursing at Egostic.

Only for one, for her own sponsor.

“Sponsor… Are you watching? It’s a symphony for you…”

So she uploaded the video to the new channel with trembling hands.

Now.

The dice are rolled.

***

A week after I sponsored a YouTuber named Chae Nayoung, she is pretty productive.

Actually, I almost forgot after a week.

As I heard the ding from my phone, I looked at it and got a notification from her channel.

“Oh, she finally uploaded, huh? Shall we take a look?”

And the video I watched.

It was shocking

A video of constantly dissing Egostic from beginning to end.

The video quality, which was produced as if it were news, was tremendous.

It was just what I wanted.

And then I realized.

…This thing is fantastic.

It can hit big.

As soon as I finished that judgment, I ran to Seo-eun.

“Seo-eun! You have a manipulator, right?”

“Eh. What? Manipulator?”

“Yes. YouTube view manipulation. Hurry up and use it, let’s make this video no.1 in real-time.”

“No, what is this?… This?”

“Yes. My gut tells me, this is going to be huge. If we push her, she’ll hit big.”

“What? I mean… Well… Okay, I got it for now.”

Just like that.

The most popular video on YouTube in Korea.

[Egostic, a brutal psychopath villain, let’s talk about his ugly side], and a rare event took place.

***

Shin Haru.

Her biggest thought in a week was, as always, Egostic.

What the hell did she mean by ‘he lives in the same house’?

He’s close with his colleagues like family? She doesn’t know anything about him, and he may be living in the same house with his colleagues as his family.

She doesn’t know every little piece of information about him, but his colleagues say they’re family, so that’s what she knows. No matter how hard she tries, there are so many things she doesn’t know.

And that terrorist attack.

What was the reason for the attack that started this time? He even took hostages at best, and released them again without touching them. There’s no special reason for taking a hostage in the first place, even if he just wanted to call Stardus out.

…So why on earth did this attack happen? For what purpose?

And her gut tells herself.

…She had a feeling that this terrorist attack was done to appeal that he was a villain. Of course, it’s her own delusion that doesn’t make sense, but she just had that thought without realizing it.

…Egostic. Should she really consider him a bad guy? Can she call him a villain?

Shin Haru lost her mind with that thought without realizing it.

…Egostic is, of course, a villain. A vicious villain. She keeps thinking weird things. She can’t let vain delusions weaken her.

Egostic is a clear villain, and she just needs to catch him. The end.

Shin Haru, who had a headache after thinking about different things, sighed and went to YouTube. She was going to listen to some music.

And a big thumbnail video that got into her sight. It was no.1 in the real-time chart.

[Egostic, a brutal psychopath villain, let’s talk about his ugly side]

As she saw the title, she pressed the video without realizing it.

And as the video started, a woman who looked like an anchor appeared and began to recite the evil deeds that Egostic had committed so far in a calm voice.

He attempted to bomb ships, tied people to train tracks, crash a plane, damaged a bridge, etc.

The anchor, who had been clearly summarizing the evil deeds committed by Egostic so far, shouted in a furious voice at the end.

[We have to catch this cruel psychopath right now!! People, don’t be fooled! He’s a pile of irredeemable mad rubbish, and putting him to death right away is just not enough!! If there’s a bad guy in the world, Egostic will be worse than other dogs!!!]

The video of such an overexcited woman ended in a twitch.

Underneath it was a flood of innumerable hate stories.

There were a lot of curses in the comments section. To the anchor, not Egostic, of course.

And after watching the video until the end.

Shin Haru, who was still absent-minded, thought quietly.

“…..”

…Well, Egostic is, of course, a bad guy.

Still, isn’t this too much?

While thinking about it, she found her fingers writing a comment under the video without realizing it.

[Newday313] [I think you seem to force yourself to do dissing a bit too hard. The logic is poor. I don’t think Egostic is that bad]

She even left a comment right there, so she thought quietly.

…Yeah, this is some kind of justice.

Even if the opponent is a villain, you shouldn’t even curse like this.

Honestly, she feels sorry for Egostic. Yeah, the woman cursed too much… She must say something.

While she was at it, Shin Haru pressed hard the dislike buttons on the

…Somehow, watching the video of Egostic being vilified made her feel bad, with incomprehensible emotions.

***

“Wow. Da-in. The ratio of likes and dislikes on your video is 1 versus 10000. That’s the best record ever.”

Seeing Seo-eun talking to me like she was teasing, I told her.

“Seo-eun, that doesn’t mean anything.”

Okay.

This is actually a video made for Stardus, Shin Haru to watch.

I’m sure she watched YouTube during her day off, so I’m sure she watched this video.

As long as she sees this and realizes how bad I am again, and burns hostility toward me, that’s enough for me.

Although the comment section is full of people taking my side, it doesn’t matter because there won’t be Stardus there.

“Yeah… It just needs to go that way…”
