003. Rings, red pepper paste stew, and nutube.
It was the next day to get the ring, but being able to do whatever I wanted didn’t suddenly change my life dramatically.
Of course, things were going to change drastically in the future.
I had to know the exact method and limitations of using this ability right away, and at the same time, it was the ‘record’ that the ring said.
“You have to do it right to do it.”
I don’t know what kind of lives of some people in the past will be recorded in the ring, but I also thought that it would be nice if my life was recorded as a really awesome life.
In addition to that, I also thought of doing that record.
It wasn’t just that my childhood dreams came to mind. Right from the moment I finished the game yesterday, all sorts of things I wanted to try popped up in my head and subsided repeatedly.
“I’m sure it applies to other games as well.”
Song Jae-ik turned off the game and nodded in satisfaction.
I only watched Taker’s Reohi video, so I wondered if it would apply to other games, but fortunately it wasn’t.
After playing a few more notoriously difficult games, he was far better than he was in every game.
Of course, the change in the skills of Legends of Heroes, who watched and played the video, was the most noticeable.
That too is clearly visible.
As an analogy to game tiers, from Bronze to Gold. It feels like my skills are jumping.
If so, it meant that even the top 0.01% of challengers could make it, depending on how hard they tried.
“Hmm. Hmm. What is certain is digestion.”
That feeling of bloating inside that I felt while playing the game yesterday.
Even though he obviously didn’t eat anything, he felt the same way today after watching the video on You Tube.
After the slightly jagged digestion time passed, the angle that was not visible before was visible, just like yesterday’s game.
“In short. Like the word ring, it means that when you learn something, you have to digest it so that you can use it. I don’t know the standard of how long it takes to digest.”
It was full of things I didn’t know yet. In the first place, it is impossible to explain this situation in words.
“ah. Kang Seok decided to come.”
As dinner time approached, Song Jae-ik remembered his promise and searched for red pepper paste stew on You Tube and played the video with the highest number of views.
[Gochujang stew.]
As the days get colder, I suddenly think of red pepper paste stew, and in addition to that, I want to check the ring’s ability.
Of course, Eom Kang-seok, who plans to accompany us in the evening, thinks otherwise.
[Today’s gochujang stew. This is actually good as a side dish for rice, but it’s perfect for a cup of soju or makgeolli when I’m cold.]
When the video started with the voice of a famous cooking nutuber coming from the speaker, I was quickly immersed in the video just like when I first saw Taker’s video.
[Add cooking oil over low heat and stir-fry red pepper paste once. Fire control is especially important. If you do it over high heat, it will burn, so use low heat unconditionally.]
The pupils followed the movement of the video without a break, and the video was processed through the ring and piled up in Song Jae-ik’s brain.
“OK!”
When the video ended, Song Jae-ik got out of the video a little faster than Taker’s video, clapped his hands lightly, and left the house.
As it was a dinner date, we decided to have a drink, and I was thinking of shopping at the mart in front of my house to try red pepper paste stew and other foods.
Before that, I couldn’t cook at all, so when my friend came over to play, I ordered delivery food, but I thought about whether it was necessary to have it delivered when I had a ring.
“Meat, mushrooms, onions, zucchini, potatoes. The refrigerator will do its job now.”
Since I am not good at cooking, the refrigerator at home was literally only used for storing water, alcohol, and delivery food to be heated, not for storing food.
“Mum. Let’s buy this one too.”
However, since it was different now, it contained ingredients for the food I wanted to try in addition to the original purpose of making red pepper paste stew. I had to keep it in the fridge and eat it one at a time.
I didn’t know before that shopping to simply buy food ingredients was such a fun thing, so Song Jae-ik was literally putting food ingredients he wanted to try like crazy.
“hello?”
– Where are you?
Receiving a call from Um Kang-seok during the checkout, Song Jae-ik smiled as he put the items in his shopping cart.
“Mart.”
– Are you serious about cooking?
Um Kang-seok’s voice was serious.
He deserved it, because Song Jae-ik had cooked several times when his friends came to play, and even that easy ramen would become Han River water ramen or soup ramen turned into stir-fried ramen.
It also blows a lot.
“Uh huh. Because today is different Can’t you see yesterday’s game?”
– Hey, playing games and cooking are the same! Instead of ingredients, buy some alcohol. Because when I go, I can order whatever I buy. Arrive in an hour!
Um Kang-seok sighed. I wasn’t Song Jae-ik who wouldn’t do it even if I was told not to do it, and I thought about what I would say to buy ingredients and make food with my own money.
“don’t worry. When I taste my food, I don’t even think of delivery food… girl? no. I’m sure it won’t fly.”
After confirming that the YouTube video he had just watched had been digested, Song Jae-ik hurriedly changed his words with a question mark.
– Ugh, the problem is that what you said is a question! Anyway see you later!
—
Upon arriving home, Song Jae-ik organized the ingredients in his shopping cart. Go to the sink for gochujang stew and the rest of the ingredients to the refrigerator.
Planed pork belly, mushrooms and onions, potatoes, and marinades.
Even just looking at the ingredients, I could already feel my fingertips tickling.
And Song Jae-ik, who took out a knife from the kitchen to cook in earnest, frowned.
I hadn’t paid much attention to it before, but seeing it now, the dead blade was quite annoying.
“Tsk.”
As a makeshift way, after setting the blade on the spatula, he began to trim the ingredients with his familiar hands, unlike before.
clap clap clap-
I cut the potatoes and onions into bite-sized pieces, and at the same time started to fry the meat in a pot.
The savory smell of the meat mixed with the oil vibrated, and soon after the red pepper paste was added, the smell changed to a spicy smell.
gulp-
I only had to stir-fry the meat and red pepper paste, but I was already salivating at the thought that Song Jae-ik would be delicious.
‘The water is to the point that even vegetables are in it.’
And Song Jae-ik, who was cooking in a trance, ate a spoonful of the finished red pepper paste stew and laughed out loud.
“ah. delicious.”
Since his sense of taste was not paralyzed, Song Jae-ik knew at least that the food he ate was tasteless.
But what is this red pepper paste stew? It was delicious even though I made it myself.
Right now, more than any food you’ve ever eaten!
Ding Dong-
Then, at the right time, the bell rang, and Um Kang-seok entered through the previously opened door, holding a savory-smelling bag in both hands.
“It is chicken. chicken you like I also bought two of them. What about alcohol?”
And after holding out the bag as if he had waited, Um Kang-seok sniffed at the spicy and delicious smell that filled the house, then looked at Song Jae-ik with strange eyes.
“Did you really cook? isn’t it? Did you deliver it?”
“Cooking, of course. you said do it Gochujang stew with soju. Isn’t that just fine?”
At the confident words of Song Jae-ik, Eom Kang-seok put the chicken on the table and headed to the kitchen that stimulated his sense of smell.
“what? Does it smell good? Where did you buy it and just change the pot and boil it?”
“Are you stupid? If that’s the case, why not just eat it or bother?”
“but.”
Um Kang-seok looked around the kitchen.
The traces of the chopping board and the ingredients still preparing to be put in. To say that the delivery food was ground, there were no disposable containers around, so this food was really made by Song Jae-ik.
The spicy yet delicious smell pierced his nose and Um Kang-seok ate a spoonful of gochujang stew with the spoon next to the pot.
“Wow. what is this!”
It was a truly heartfelt exclamation.
“Five. pretty tasty Liver is good too. Big. It reminds me of soju. Did you really do this?”
It was a bit disappointing that the reaction was pretty good rather than the reaction that it was a hit.
‘As expected, the first digestion is only this much.’
As with games, I wondered if I had to study and practice the field constantly to improve my skills.
“what are you doing?”
At those words, Song Jae-ik slumped down in front of the table.
“But are you a little strange?”
Yesterday’s game, today’s gochujang stew, and it feels like he’s not the Song Jae-ik he’s known since high school.
It’s been 8 years since I’ve known Song Jae-ik. It was really strange to see a new friend after 8 years.
As much as I thought so, the red pepper paste stew was definitely special enough to be delicious.
“What is strange? Have a drink.”
“But what’s wrong? Why are you drinking all of a sudden? Big. It’s awesome.”
When two glasses of alcohol went in and an empty bottle appeared, Um Kang-seok looked at Jae-ik Song, admiring the delicious gochujang stew, even though it had cooled down a bit.
“Have you tried You Tube? Is it difficult?”
Eom Kang-seok was the only person he knew who had done a nutube. Even though it was not a full-time job, it was literally a hobby activity level.
“Big-! you tube? It’s difficult. You’re not trying to be a creator, are you?”
After drinking a glass of soju, Um Kang-seok shook his head and replied.
“Don’t even think about it. Especially if it’s just a hobby, I don’t know, but such a stupid idea to make it a job.”
Read at noblemtl. com
Like don’t even think about it.
“why? Is it that difficult?”
It was because the first thing he thought of to record his life was You Tube.
And the only thing I remember was You Tube. Besides, what you are trying to do is not limited to any one field.
I couldn’t really pinpoint it. You don’t even know what you can do, but you’re limiting yourself?
‘Maybe it deals with the most promiscuous variety of NuTube channels ever released.’
Instead of answering, as he continued to ponder, Um Kang-seok drank another glass of soju and spoke as if to listen carefully.
“Hey, think about it. Making money on Youtube means you have to have something. Usually something special. Whether it’s killer content or something that draws people’s attention. If not, it is literally a hobby.”
Even after saying that, Song Jae-ik sighed as he made an expression that did not know the reality.
“Ugh. really. Can you do that long run? That’s another matter. Even the killer content you thought of has a lifespan after all. After all, it is a job that requires planning skills. Besides, what are you focusing on? game? The game is already saturated enough. A game is impossible without something really special, whether it’s wit or skill.”
More and more people are choosing to be a nutube creator as their hope for the future, and various media outlets are flooding with articles about how much money nutubes make.
Besides, isn’t the famous Bill Gates also an era of nutube?
However, Um Kang-seok’s words were not wrong. Most of those articles are written based on the top 1%. Except that he doesn’t say that people who can’t compare to him try and fail in the nutube market and leave.
“You know what I mean?”
Even after hearing that, Song Jae-ik had a strong conviction.
A certain certainty that he should do a nutube. It’s all the more because it’s starting with the purpose of recording your life.
In addition, if you have the skills you have now, you can literally become an unprecedented Youtube creator.
“Yeah I know what you mean. But would you like to do nertube with me? It’s just a hobby, a hobby.”
“No, what have you heard so far?”
Song Jae-ik shrugged his shoulders at Um Kang-seok’s frustrated words.
“Hey, did I go along with your madness once or twice? Even when you go to seven tonkatsu restaurants in one day because you’re a food blogger. It’s the same when I went to five soba restaurants. This time it’s your turn to pay for my madness. And it’s a hobby.”
At those words, Um Kang-seok let out a sigh. Because it wasn’t anything wrong.
If it’s a problem, it seems like Song Jae-ik doesn’t know that he’s saying that starting a nutube is not a hobby.
Aren’t you friends though?
He himself had to prepare for a job, but he thought of what it would be like to challenge himself with something rather than just playing games to pass the time.
If you don’t like it, it’s not bad to participate with the thought of just improving your editing skills. With the feeling of adding something to your resume.
Even if you work part-time to earn money, there are many restrictions on editing depending on the channel owner’s request or direction.
If that’s the case, it’s better to just let it go.
“Ugh. damn bastard No, do you have any plans? At least a concept. Or, what kind of video are you going to shoot? At least there should be something like that. If you try blindly without that, you will literally just explode.”
Song Jae-ik remembered the Nutube channel he had envisioned.
No matter what Kang-seok Um thought, he started You Tube not to make real money, but literally to record himself and save memories.
However, to be clear, I also had the confidence to succeed.
If you do that, other things will naturally follow.
And Song Jae-ik said the channel name that met the purpose of the channel he thought of.
“Challenge Everything.”
