155 – 150. Shorts
Just a moment ago, I thought I should postpone returning to the dormitory.
It’s not that I dislike Seo Yerim and Choi Yiseo, but rather I thought I might be swayed by seeing the two of them.
However, when I saw Yuarin and Yunji laughing at each other and confronting each other.
‘I just want to go back.’
I don’t care about Seo Yerim or Choi Yiseo.
I just wanted to go home.
The atmosphere between the two was that bleak.
Even though the beef was being grilled in front of us, the atmosphere was like this.
I hit my little brother’s knee sitting next to me with my fist once, and my brother whispered in my ear, blushing.
“I didn’t make a seat with this in mind….”
“Isn’t the problem that you’re too optimistic? You’re too much like Mom.”
Did you think that when the two of you got together, you would just laugh and talk about business?
My little brother, who already knows all about our side, was acting like this, so my head was pounding.
“Surely you didn’t do this on purpose?”
I asked just in case, but my little brother almost cried and insisted on his innocence.
“I really didn’t. Why would I do something like this to you? No, the Yunji I know was someone who was very strict about separating work and private life.”
“That’s….”
I agree with that too.
Yunji was originally a bit sharp in this area, but.
When I talked to her at the cafe last time, I realized that she also had a human side.
So to me now, such behavior seemed natural.
“And Yunji is the president of our side for now. So Eunbyeol or I can’t really step forward.”
“Ha.”
Anyway, thanks to my sister-in-law Eunbyeol, we didn’t fight openly.
The atmosphere was tense, but my little sister-in-law was somehow leading the flow.
“So. We’re raising an internet broadcaster. This will be much more helpful than just starting from scratch.”
“….”
Yuarin, who had been listening to the story blankly, crossed her arms and leaned back on the back of the chair.
It seemed like she had finished eating the meat.
“To be honest.”
She pours out her heart.
“I’m not interested in that at all.”
“Hmm.”
“Even if you say I have talent, I don’t really feel that way. In the first place, I don’t really like living while watching other people’s faces.”
Yuarin, who was somewhat skeptical about internet broadcasting.
Her reaction was not cool, so her little sister-in-law and little brother were a little embarrassed.
“The advantage of internet broadcasting is.”
Yunji, who had a blunt and businesslike expression, opened her mouth.
“You can start it lightly. You can start it right now with your cell phone.”
“….”
“Since you’re a college student, you can just invest 2 or 3 hours after class. If you really don’t think it will work, you can just quit.”
“Is that okay?”
“Many people start it as a side job.”
“Hmm, a side job. But does that make money?”
I’m not very interested in internet broadcasting either, so I was a little curious.
I know that someone has to send you money to earn it.
“I don’t think anyone will send me money.”
Yuarin shrugged her shoulders and expressed her skepticism, but Yunji smiled with satisfaction.
She took out her tablet PC and showed me her profile.
There were anime characters and just real photos, and it seemed like she was a broadcaster affiliated with the company.
“These are the creators I belong to. I’ve sorted out the average income and other things separately. Some of them have been around for a long time, but some of them are new. If you look here….”
Yunji pointed to the monthly average income of someone who had just started.
“….”Holy?”
Yuarin’s mouth dropped open at the sight of it, and she looked at Yunji and the tablet alternately, wondering if this was real.”We will support you with all our hearts. We will also include a merger with veteran broadcasters, and we will find separate editors and managers for you.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I know you’re making a lot of money.”
Yoo Ah-rin still tilted her head.

“Well, I don’t really have a dream. It’s true that I can make this much money… …”
She sighed with an ambiguous expression.
“Let me think about it for a while.”
Yoo Ah-rin still showed a conservative reaction, and the situation did not progress.
“Think positively. It’s not easy for a 20-year-old college student to earn this much income.”
Oh Yoon-ji also seemed to think that pushing any further would be counterproductive, so she stepped back, leaving only a lingering impression.
‘Unexpected.’
I thought Yoo Ah-rin would accept it for sure.
I thought it was a similar flow to Seo Ye-rin becoming an actress.
After all, both of them seemed to have outstanding talent in this area.
“Then how about this?”
At that time, my sister-in-law stepped in.
“Let’s take a shot. We’ll see how it goes, and Ah-rin can decide.”
“Shorts?”
“It’s a short video. I just had an idea. Ah-rin is definitely going to be a hit. How about you watch the viewers’ reactions and gain some confidence in yourself?”
Broadcasters are definitely broadcasters.
It seemed that she wanted to give Yoo Ah-rin confidence in herself by suggesting various directions.
“We happen to have a separate studio that we rented nearby. Let’s go there.”
* * *
“Huh.”
Yoo Ah-rin, who was standing in front of the camera, scratched the back of her head as if she was embarrassed.
“How did Ye-rin shoot?”
Suddenly, Seo Ye-rin seemed to be great.
‘Actually…’
As I listened to the story, I thought Yoo Ah-rin had a talent for internet broadcasting, but when I saw her in front of the camera, she felt awkward.
However, whether it was just my thought, the three people in charge were talking cheerfully, saying that the screen would be well received.
“Hey, what should I shoot?”
Yoo Ah-rin, who was standing alone in a daze, called me and asked.
“I don’t know. I heard earlier that you have to do something like aegyo?”
“Ugh, what kind of aegyo?”
“You did well when you called earlier. Ask for beef.”
I was in a bad mood at the time, but now that I think about it, I feel a little cute.
“It was a bit too much at the time, so why don’t you try it with a little moderation?”
I thought I had given good advice, but Yoo Ah-rin looked at me as if I was trash, with an expression that looked like she had eaten sh*t.
“I did that because it was you.”
“……”
“Anyway, this kid is either perceptive or not. Would I say that to other guys?”
At those words, I closed my mouth without realizing it.
Although she was grumbling that it was pathetic, she seemed to be ashamed of what she was saying, judging by the way she avoided my gaze.
“Now, Ah-rin. Are you ready?”
“It’s a simple shoot, so don’t worry. Do you need anything?”
My brother held the camera, and my sister-in-law turned on the light.
My eyes narrowed because it was too bright, so I quickly got out of there.
“Oh, my eyes… Can I have a mask? I don’t want to show my face.”
“Sure.”
It wasn’t a big problem to cover her face, so she handed me a black mask.
As I watched Yoo Ah-rin, who was standing awkwardly and wondering what to do, Oh Yoon-ji came up next to me.
“Can you shoot me from behind?”
“From behind?”
“Yeah, it’s a short, so I have to shoot as close as possible.”
“Then I’ll be in the front angle.”
“I’ll edit that out.”
Editing is really great these days.
I edited a video last time, but it was hard to do that.”Yeah, sure.”
Since I’d be able to go home early if I helped her anyway, I took my phone and went behind Yuarin to start filming.
‘She said to film from a little closer since it’s shorts.’
After taking a big step forward, I looked at Yuarin through my phone.
“What am I supposed to do?”
She still looked lost and confused.
“You can just act cute or something. Like this.”
My sister-in-law, who was also an internet broadcaster, showed me a skilled assistant’s demonstration.
She swayed her body lightly from side to side while acting like a cat, which seemed to be quite popular.
“Hmm.”
But Yuarin didn’t seem to like it very much, so she paused for a moment and said,
“I’ll just do what I’m good at.”
She lowered her body and put her hands on the floor.
‘Wait a minute, no way….’
“Whoop!”
She started doing a windmill right away.
But the important thing here is
That I was too close.
Bam!
My vision spins.
Before I knew it, my body floated up, came close to the ceiling for a moment, and then fell back to the floor.
As I collapsed, I made eye contact with Yuarin, who was still doing a windmill without knowing what was going on.
“Sh, shave.”
* * *
I sighed as I watched my brother-in-law and his wife, who were excited about the great shorts that came out.
“Are you okay?”
Oh Yoonji applied ointment to my chin.
“Sorry….”
Yuarin apologized honestly for once.
“It’s okay, it wasn’t on purpose.”
Anyway, it’s not a bad result since they said it came out well.
Even when I saw it earlier, the video was funny. The kid in the back suddenly flew away.
“I think it’ll be popular? Don’t you think you could become famous with this?”
“Is that… possible?”
Yuarin nodded in surprise, admitting that it was funny to watch.
It was obvious that Yuarin’s heart was slowly changing.
“I’ll send you a copy of the contract separately. Please read it over.”
She started to get interested as she sent a copy of the contract to Yuarin on her tablet.
“There aren’t many places that give preferential treatment to broadcasters like we do. Arin-ssi, it’s not common to have the opportunity to earn this much income at your age, and you have talent.”
Oh.
I thought Oh Yoonji and Yuarin would be fighting because I had been complaining from the beginning.
But Oh Yoonji was seriously trying to recruit Yuarin, and Yuarin was gradually wavering as she watched Oh Yoonji.
‘As expected of Oh Yoonji.’
Still, she’s very clear about separating work and personal life.
I was rubbing my chin as I thought about that.
“Wait a minute.”
Yuarin’s forehead wrinkled as she read the contract on her phone, and she glared at Oh Yoonji.
“There are a few restrictions.”
“Internet broadcasters are also celebrities in their own way.”
Oh Yoonji replied as if to ask what the problem was.
“You can’t even date?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
She sighed and said,
“I won’t do it.”
Yuarin had decided to give up her path as an internet broadcaster.
“You’re not trying to recruit me because of this, are you? Because I’m like this and that with Woojin?”
“Hey, Arin! No matter what, Yoonji-!”
I tried to say that Oh Yoonji wouldn’t have gone out of her way to recruit Yuarin because of something like that.
But…
Oh Yoonji’s mouth was shut tight, and the atmosphere became strange.
“Huh, if I had signed this, I would have been legally harassed every time I met you? That’s just crap.”
“I didn’t lie.”
Now that her intentions had been revealed, Oh Yoonji shrugged her shoulders and looked at her coldly, as if she was just trying to get her revenge.“It’s true that we can earn money that we can’t earn at our age, and it’s true that we can work part-time. It’s not a big problem compared to the benefits of not being able to date for a few years, right?”
“Do you hate it? ‘Ex’ girlfriend. As you know, Woojin is a super diamond spoon, so it’s much more profitable for him to look good to me than to act cute to kids who don’t even know his face on the internet.”
“……I don’t have any money.”
When I whispered awkwardly, Yooarin noticed and bit her lips tightly, making a small frown.
“Shut up, you have to say something like this to give a reason. It’s one of the few advantages you have.”
What do you mean, one of the few advantages…….
“Huh, that’s it.”
Oh Yoonji nodded sarcastically after hearing that.
“That’s right, Woojin is the youngest son of the chairman. That’s all I know.”
“What……?”
Yooarin, who seemed a little scratched, frowned and approached Oh Yoonji.
I tried to stop them in a hurry, thinking that they might actually have a fistfight.
Woong! Woong! Woong!
I checked the cell phone I was holding in my hand for the incoming call.
– Head of the Department –
At this late hour, senior Joohee called out of the blue.
