Novel Full Chapter 650 - South Korean Old Driver
“South Korea’s nights are truly splendid. They live up to my friend’s descriptions!”
Near Gangnam Station in Seoul’s subway, a young man in his twenties walked out of a shop and exclaimed to the sky.
It was already past ten at night, and the passersby only gave him a glance without saying much. This young man spoke in Chinese, and the locals couldn’t understand.
Gangnam District in Seoul was one of the most affluent districts. Almost all the famous and wealthy people in South Korea lived here. The eponymous Gangnam-style dance was actually performed here.
The one expressing his feelings about life was none other than the well-known Bilibili streamer ‘Tomato’.
Three years ago, Tomato transitioned from being an unsuccessful writer to becoming a streamer. Initially, he was just an outdoor streamer on Bilibili, with moderate fame and earnings enough to make ends meet. However, everything changed over two years ago.
Even now, recalling that time, Tomato still felt a lingering fear. If he were to face a similar danger again, even if it would turn him into a top streamer, Tomato probably wouldn’t be willing.
Over two years ago, Tomato experienced the disaster caused by the Deep Ones in Tokyo. He had gone to Tokyo to livestream, wanting to gain more fans and increase his viewership. Unfortunately, he coincidentally encountered the invasion of the Deep Ones in Tokyo. He kept his stream live while fleeing, and witnessed the terrifying Deep Ones wreak havoc in the metropolis and the war between the Deep Ones and the military.
In the end, they witnessed the superhuman battle between the immortal of China and the Deep Ones’ High Priest, as well as the awe-inspiring power of the Torch Dragon that turned day into night and night into day.
Tomato narrowly escaped being killed by a Deep One. In the end, he survived the chaos by sheer luck. Over the course of the events he amassed thousands of viewers and rose in popularity substantially afterward.
Although he was not on par with the top-tier streamers in the industry, he managed to lift himself out of poverty. After that, his livestreams and videos on Bilibili garnered a considerable number of viewers, earning him a decent amount of money.
As the saying goes, ‘Money changes people’. Being a young man, Tomato couldn’t resist the temptations. After becoming financially stable, he began indulging in lustful thoughts. Subsequently, in a shy and hesitant manner, he was once again taken to Japan by an experienced ‘old driver’, experiencing the extravagant and lively nightlife.
However, after multiple visits to Japan, he grew somewhat tired of it. This time, he was brought to South Korea by another streamer, exploring a new path of entertainment for experienced ‘old drivers’.
Tomato stretched lazily and turned his gaze towards the young man who emerged from the ‘store’ behind him. This person was the old driver who brought him to South Korea this time. He had a good command of the Korean language and, at the very least, could manage life in South Korea. The two of them shared a certain affinity, both having transitioned from struggling writers to streamers.
“Old driver, thanks a lot for guiding me this time!”
He thanked the driver with a smile.
“No problem. Whenever I go to Japan, I’ll still need Tomato to guide me. You know, the cherry blossoms in our hometown are about to bloom, and the cherry blossom girls are waiting for us under the cherry trees.”
The South Korean old driver also extended his gratitude to Tomato, and both of them exchanged pleasantries with a smirk on their faces.
“Damn, South Korea is amazing. I always thought the Japanese knew how to have fun, but now that I’m in South Korea, those people know nothing! In the elevator, that masked girl was truly tempting. As soon as we entered, she pulled me into the lobby, and we got busy right away. I was really shocked at that moment. The entire lobby was chaotic, with thirty-plus people messing around. My innocent heart received a blow, but I have to admit, being watched by so many people was quite exciting.”
Tomato reminisced about the events that had happened earlier, feeling the excitement building up within him.
“South Koreans like to be watched, or they like to watch others. You’ll know once you’ve experienced it more. By the way, those two guys who joined the six-person chaos in your room, were they Japanese?”
The old South Korean seemed accustomed to South Korea’s traditions and didn’t find it surprising.
“Yep, those two short guys were indeed from Japan. I chatted with them a bit. Turns out, these two Japanese guys were on a business trip to South Korea. How about that, brother? I brought glory to my country! Those two little Japanese guys surrendered in less than five minutes. I went at it continuously for fifteen minutes!”
Tomato proudly boasted.
“Brother, you’re awesome!”
The South Korean old driver and Tomato praised each other.
“No kidding, the prices in South Korea are quite reasonable, just under 250,000 Korean won. Much cheaper than Japan. But the downside is that the girls are a bit older. I asked, and she’s already twenty-seven. However, her figure is really something. The only drawback is you can’t choose between photos and the actual person. If it weren’t for your Korean language skills, I wouldn’t know how to choose…”
Tomato shook his head, pointing out the drawbacks of South Korea.
“Well, customs vary from place to place. Those girls there have all undergone plastic surgery, but whether it’s artificial or natural, as long as they look good, it’s fine.”
The South Korean old driver consoled him.
“No wonder those girls all look so similar. South Korea is truly unique!”
Tomato gave a thumbs up.
“I’m taking you around South Korea this time, and next time, I’ll rely on you in Japan. By the way, I know a few adventurous folks. How about we plan a trip to Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia? There are even more adventurous ones who have been to the Netherlands, Germany, and Austria.”
“Golden cats and big ostriches, damn, that sounds cool! Take me with you next time.”
“Sure, sure, drivers should help each other and guide each other. That way, we can explore the world together.”
The two chuckled, and everything was understood without words.
At this point, Tomato took out his phone, preparing to start a livestream.
“What’s wrong, are you going to livestream again?”
The driver asked curiously. Unlike Tomato, who was an outdoor streamer, he was a gaming streamer.
“Being in South Korea, I have to do some livestreaming. The things that happened just now can’t be broadcast, or else I’d get banned on Bilibili. We’re in Gangnam now, and you’re familiar with Seoul. How about taking me around this wealthy area? It can be a topic for the livestream. I’ll treat you to a meal in return, what do you think?”
Tomato adjusted the livestreaming app while saying so.
“No problem, brother.”
The South Korean old driver assured him, without hesitation. A meal was a small matter for streamers of their level. Who treated whom was a trivial issue, and this gaming streamer could also make an appearance in this outdoor livestream, increasing his popularity.
Friends helped each other, and there couldn’t be any competition between these two streamers with different niches.
Just as Tomato opened the livestreaming platform to start broadcasting, an urgent broadcast suddenly erupted from alarms.
