Doing This For the Best (1)

Early dawn.

Genome entered the Capsule and began preparing for his channel.

'There are probably going to be quite a few refugees today.'

He timed his channel's start to begin right after Lee Gyeongbok's channel ended. By setting things up this way, he could naturally absorb all the viewers left adrift when Lee Gyeongbok's show finished.

Sure enough, as soon as he went live, the number of viewers rose rapidly.

"Welcome, early birds."

With his greeting, the chat quickly filled with laughter, as well as shouts of 'underground' and 'Chooha.'

Before getting into the main program, Genome set aside some time for chatting. In the past, he would talk about what was new or browse his fan LattePro. Lately, though, things had changed.

- Godple's channel was legendary again today LOL

- Seriously LOL it was hilarious

- How is every day this much fun, I can't!

Ever since he started joint streams with Lee Gyeongbok, the PerG-Day crew formed, and Genome pushed back his own broadcast time, the opening chat topic was basically set.

It was always the review of Lee Gyeongbok's channel. The viewers used it as a chance to tease Genome—who couldn't watch live due to his own prep—syncing up their energy for the show.

Genome intentionally avoided watching Lee Gyeongbok's channel, just to enjoy this teasing.

'But today is different.'

This time was different, however. Due to Lee Gyeongbok's call, he had appeared on the show at least by phone.

Genome was a professional streamer. If he'd had no involvement, he might have ignored it, but once he was a part of the show, he felt responsible to understand the context.

'I didn't see the Brawl mode play, but I saw all the recruitment.'

Having checked things from start to finish except the actual gameplay, Genome naturally opened up the conversation.

"Hey, did you all vote on Purple channel yet?"

The community topic he picked was Lee Gyeongbok's merch vote.

Since Lee Gyeongbok was a crew member and a close junior, Genome also wanted to give him some support.

"If you haven't voted yet, let's do it together now. I didn't get to since I was setting up the channel."

Pulling up the Purple channel community, he smoothly encouraged participation.

― Wait, there are people who didn't vote on the merch?

― If you're a properly awake Korean, it's already done LOL

― Do you think we slack off like hyung LOL

― Be honest! Honestly, you purposely didn't do it!

― LOL just waiting to coast on chatting content

― Starting off cringe as always LOL

Viewers teased him as if it was only natural. Genome just lifted his jaw in pride.

"These guys don't get it. You think this is chat-farming? Really, think about it. Who am I? I'm CEO's number one fan among all the streamers. Even if no one else does it, it's only right I vote on channel, see?"

― He's got a point LOL

― Our hyung is the OG number one LOL

― We're all family, right!

While laughter filled the chat, Genome searched for the vote. Soon, he scrolled through the merch options, and his eyes widened.

The variety was impressive, but what really caught his attention was this:

[54,000 votes]

It was the number of voters.

"What, already over 50,000? How long has it even been up?"

He set aside his astonishment, a genuine smile creeping onto his lips.

"Wow, this turnout is unreal. At this rate, it'll pass 100,000 no problem. Seriously, it's a hit even without seeing the results."

― Stating the obvious like it's major news LOL

― But turnout's seriously huge LOL

― Bro, when I voted there were like 10,000

― LOL if Godple doesn't hit it big, who will?

Genome furrowed his brow, rolling his eyes at the chat.

"You know, just because you vote doesn't mean you'll buy. But at this rate, we're sure to break 100,000, right? Even if just 10% buy, that's 10,000 units! 10,000!"

Thinking back, Genome let out a brief sigh.

"I'm not bringing this up for nothing. I actually tried launching my own merch before—it's not easy. The longtime viewers know. So many said they'd buy and didn't! I struggled so much just dealing with unsold stock."

― LOL I remember that

― The gradient of regret LOL

― The 90% off tears sale LOL

-???: Let me show you SOMETHING!

― There was originally a limit, then you just removed it LOL

― Hyung! I bought two though!

Longtime viewers chimed in, ribbing him as he let out a theatrical chuckle.

"Anyway, voting comes first. Let's see... huh?"

Just as he was about to vote, his eyes gleamed.

"Wow, this is how it's done! You can't see the vote tally! This part is absolutely crucial!"

The chat peppered him with question marks. How could hiding the results be such a big deal?

"Well, my situation was a bit different, but when I did merch, I opened voting to gauge demand. Problem was, I was a rookie, and I set the poll so the results were public."

He heaved another sigh, shaking his head.

"It wasn't a problem at first. But as votes piled up, the results skewed more and more. You've heard of the bandwagon effect, herd mentality! I saw it firsthand. People voted for options they wouldn't even buy, and I ended up drowning in stock."

― LOL I remember

-lol you whined so much about all that unsold stock

― Remastered whiner edition LOL

― But it does make sense, honestly LOL

― Stuff always looks better when it's what everyone wants LOL

Genome nodded along with his viewers.

"Yeah, I can own that. I'm the same way. But I learned something through that."

He raised an index finger, continuing.

"No matter how much you love someone, you still weigh the cost-benefit for spending money. That threshold is just lower for fans than average people. But when it's time to open your wallet, reason always wakes up."

He drifted for a moment, then returned his gaze to the chat.

"Sorry, got lost in some bad memories. Anyway, what I mean is, our CEO wouldn't make that mistake. Actually, this is even better."

He hadn't brought up Purple channel to vent; he wanted to ramp up the energy again.

"You know what's smart about this poll? Now fans have to promote their own pick to each other. Why? No one knows the results. There's a chance the merch you voted for won't get made! That pushes people to naturally promote it. Seriously, is this their first time launching merch?"

― Huh, now that you mention it!

― So even shareholders have to work, huh!

― Black Company style use of the shareholders LOL

― So you're saying they already know how to run reruns LOL

― Even merch sales are about replay mastery? LOL

― There's no one left who doesn't have Perfect Common Sense, right?

Genome selected an option, adding another comment.

"I'm guessing the poll itself was run by the manager or editor, right? CEO's amazing, but it also means there are talented people on their team."

― That's true LOL

-lol the Purple channel editor and manager are legends

― Geniuses attract other talented people, it's a thing LOL

― Seriously, birds of a feather, lol

― But why are you in the group, hyung?

― You stick around because you can't tell when to back off?

― Or did you stay because you're so cringe LOL

Genome faked outrage at their jokes and zoomed in on the poll choices.

"Alright, enough nonsense! There must be people who can't decide, right? I'll pick for you, just follow along verbatim."

― Kemalcon figure is a must, Lol

― I kinda want the Perfect Common Sense hoodie too

― OTP tumbler? Not my cup of tea

― Bro's actually advertising mid-stream

-???: No way I'm doing what you say!

― LOL we're never going to follow along

Genome clicked his tongue as he read the chat.

"Man, you guys don't get it. If you just listen to me, you'll really change your mind. Think about it,"

He then confidently explained.

"The hoodie's design is clean; anyone can see that at a glance. It works whether you're at home or outside. And since it's overfit, it looks good on any body type."

He stood up as if he were acting on stage, moving around.

"Well, if you have to wear a uniform or a suit for work, maybe not. But just put this on and go about your day. Whether you're studying or working, when you get exhausted, just look over at the Kemalcon figure and get a boost."

The chat filled with question marks. Looking at a figure sounded nice, but how did that give you 'strength'?

"Come on, you all know. There are times where things go totally sideways at work, right? But there's nothing you can do—you just have to deal. That's when you glance at the Kemalcon figure and think of CEO. He gets through every impossible thing! Can you believe it? Yeah, you can."

Genome flopped back into his chair, stretching out.

"So after you finish your work and go home, what's the top priority? Rest, obviously. Nothing else matters. But you've all bought a bunch of stuff thinking you'll exercise or study a language in your free time, haven't you? I know. But you just can't find the motivation! 'I'll start tomorrow,' and then you just crash."

― That's so true, Lol

― Is that me?

― You too? Wow! Me too!

― Hyung? Spying on individuals is a crime!

-???: "There's a listening device in my ear!"

Genome grinned at the viewers' strong agreement, then gestured at the tumbler.

"That's when the OTP tumbler catches your eye. What does it say on it? OVER THE PERFECT, 'Beyond Perfection.' Just seeing that, you can't help but think of the Perfect CEO, right? Suddenly you're motivated. Why? Because you want to be like him, too. If you stick with that routine, every day changes and you become a real Purple viewer."

― LOL, that storytelling

― Honestly, that's kind of convincing?

― PerG-Day should sign him as a salesman LOL

― Tier 1 to the end, seriously!

― But hyung actually changed for real LOL

― I'm only falling for it this once, okay?

As the viewers expressed their satisfaction, Genome laughed, clapping his hands.

"Alright, that's how you vote. Shall we look at the comments?"

He opened the comments under the poll post. As expected, most were people urging others to vote.

But soon, his eyes went round.

[-It's Awesome! Where can I buy these goods?]

[-Are you selling it now?]

[-I've never wanted to be a Korean like now! XD]

[-ええ？! どこで買えますか？]

[-すごくかわいい! ぜひ欲しい!]

"There are a lot of foreign comments?"

It was because not just Koreans, but foreign accounts were all over the comment section.

― Yeah, there were more than you'd think

― Lots of people asking where to buy LOL

-lol, they really think it's on sale now

― World-class level immediately showing!

― First merch sale, and already thinking about worldwide shipping LOL

― You have to launch merch globally, that's just Perfect Common Sense, right?

― LOL, now I really want Kemalcon

― It'll be limited quantity, so the competition'll be fierce LOL

Genome snorted at the chatter.

"Don't worry, shopFandom only supports domestic delivery."

With that, the chat grew even more festive.

― LOL, you're all disqualified!

― Overseas Koreans can't buy, Lol

― That's the majesty of a country with Purple?

― HOXY, are you triggered?

― If you wanted the merch that bad, you should have been born in Korea LOL

The viewers' pride in their place of residence was suddenly riding high.

* * *

Around the same time.

Shin Hyerim was riding a taxi home.

'Is it OK to go to work in this much luxury?'

This, too, was a perk that came with her changed working hours. Thanks to nightly transportation support, she didn't have to suffer through rush hour.

'But that's not the point right now.'

Wearing a serious expression, she brushed her face, nervously bit her lips.

Finally, with trembling hands, she submitted her choices.

'The figure, hoodie, and tumbler are the best option.'

After agonizing for so long, she finished voting for the merch. The doubts came back, but she shook her head and imagined herself with the items.

Wearing a Perfect Sense hoodie, sitting at a desk with the Kemalcon figure, sipping a drink from the OTP tumbler while monitoring a channel.

What other company would let her create such a workspace?

"Heh heh heh."

A giggle escaped before she knew it. The taxi driver glanced at her nervously, but she didn't notice.

'I wonder if there are more comments by now.'

She checked MetaGamer's homepage. Unfortunately, her latest article hadn't made the front page.

The reason was simple.

[A New Paradigm in Fighting Games!]

An article about Metal Punch was already occupying a front-page spot.

'Who could have guessed I'd get a scoop like that again?'

No matter what, she couldn't have two Metal Punch articles in a row on the front. And if she just merged them, there'd be fewer views.

So the editorial department posted her article as the main piece for both the influencer category and the Metal Punch meta.

'Still, it's a shame. This is easily front page material.'

Shin Hyerim scrunched her nose, then blinked.

'Wait, what am I thinking? I've gotten spoiled!'

Just three months ago, she never would've dared to hope for front page—even in the influencer category she used to worry about not getting any exposure at all.

Now she was upset about not having two main features at once?

'Hyerim, get it together. You've seen too many people get overconfident and then crash and burn!'

After all, personal streaming was an industry full of sudden shooting stars.

She calmed herself, thinking of all the influencers who had flared and disappeared.

Then she quietly clicked on the article to read the comments.

[-How is the upload speed on these articles so fast?]

[-MetaGamer is definitely #1 for a reason, Lol]

[-Godple news is basically in real-time here, Lol]

[-Does the reporter really work until this hour?!]

[-Pretty sure you're Korean, right?]

Thankfully, the comments were all positive. She scrolled down with relief.

[-Brawl Mode no clean-hit clear?]

[-LOL how is this even possible!]

[-Isn't there a total friendship-breaker section in that mode?]

[-lmao, that segment's infamous for making people rage]

[-But they did it LOL]

Most comments expressed shock at the channel content. Some wondered if the legendary 'Shoulder' in Metal Punch had made it happen.

[-Didn't Shoulder give really good guidance?]

[He did, but not THAT much LOL]

[Almost no guidance, he just played for fun LOL]

[I don't think this guy's Korean?]

[Seriously, godple finds all the strategies on his own]

[If anything, shoulder got tips seeing a brand new approach LOL]

In the replies, people who'd watched clarified what really happened. Then, comments moved to the heart of the issue: the platform event.

[-?????????]

[-Shoulder and Godple are gonna face off?]

[-LOL why didn't you mention the most shocking news first?!]

[-Keeping us in suspense to the end!]

[-Wow, reporter, you're clever]

[-LOL, now I'm going back to re-read after seeing the comments]

Shin Hyerim had intentionally placed that news last. She smiled, seeing that the reactions went exactly as she had hoped.

[-The lineup for this is crazy, though]

[-If it's the PerG-Day crew, it's trustworthy LOL]

[-You HAVE to bring in LastNuna LOL]

[-Can Hayeoja become the ultimate boss lady...]

[-Shoulder-hyung brought all his connections]

[-What about the open women's spot for Tweety?]

[-If they recruited together with Shoulder and didn't fill the role, maybe no good candidates?]

While amazed at the lineup for the platform event, everyone wondered about the last unfilled spot.

[-Wouldn't NewNunna fit perfectly here?]

[-Her physical skill would be amazing for Metal Punch]

[-Now you mention it, newtonLord hasn't shown up lately?]

[-There hasn't been a PerG-Day joint stream LOL]

[-Is the NewPerG-Day crew reuniting LOL]

Some wished to see NewtonLord participate in the event. Given her past role in the Gunner Ground event, perhaps she'd shine again.

But there was a problem.

[-Isn't it a bit hard for NewNunna to join this time?]

[-She was fine in GunG because it's influencer-based, but...]

[-It is a platform event this time though;;;]

[-Honestly, newNunna isn't a streamer LOL]

[-To participate, you need to channel on Tweety, right?]

[-Didn't she say she didn't want to stream?]

[-Guess we won't see her this time]

[-Then who's going to fill the slot?]

[-Wow, this is REALLY unpredictable]

Without being a streamer, representing a platform is impossible—so people's curiosity only increased.

But there was no need to worry.

[-Whoever Godple picks will be fine, Lol]

[-Tweety still has the Perfect Eye!]

They trusted Lee Gyeongbok, who held the right to pick the lineup.

* * *

The next morning.

Lee Gyeongbok set out for exercise before breakfast, as was his routine.

'I'm starting to get used to this.'

He wore his hoodie and sunglasses. At home, it didn't matter, but jogging even briefly outdoors meant he had to cover up—mainly at his friends' insistence.

'It blocks out the sun, too.'

At first, it felt awkward, but he realized it was practical and got used to it.

'Besides, people who exercise in the morning barely pay attention to anyone else.'

He jogged leisurely, getting properly warmed up, when he suddenly felt his phone vibrate.

"Hello?"

He answered without slowing down.

〈I was going to message, but thought you'd probably be exercising, so I called.〉

It was Park Juho.

"Was it something important, if you called knowing that? Did something happen?"

〈I don't know yet if it's a problem.〉

"You don't?"

Lee Gyeongbok gradually slowed to a walk.

〈Tweety contacted us for an urgent meeting, saying they're sorry.〉

"A meeting? Out of the blue?"

He came to a stop. Seemed like he needed to focus.

Maybe because of that, he guessed the meeting topic right away.

"Oh, this is about the women's division participant, isn't it."

Since this was about the pride of the platforms, it was clear the Tweety side was paying extra attention.
