An awkward but quite friendly dinner was held with Ko Hyeon-se and Ko Hyeon-seok.
It’s an incredible scene even if you’ve experienced it yourself.
‘Amazing. We were fighting fiercely just a few weeks ago.’
But maybe that’s also the power of money.
Now that the competition for management rights is over, both of them have become people with a common goal of raising L Group’s performance.
“There is no way the original main lineup will change. However, it develops about three new models that lead the so-called trend and changes the corporate image of L Motors. We can sort this out.”
It was Ko Hyeon-se’s arrangement.
“that’s right. Now the question is what those three new models will be.”
Ko Hyeon-seok also nodded.
“There will be several opinions. converge well. In the meantime, I will do my best to film a car experience video.”
Having said this, I asked a question to confirm one thing.
“When does the construction of the test drive course start?”
“that. The plan will come out in 2-3 weeks.”
“If you just make a race track, you will lose your competitiveness, so it would be better to make something like a rough road course or stress course.”
“hmm? what is that?”
“There are several things to test the performance of a car. If you just make a course to see who runs faster, the use is obvious.”
After I said this, I searched YouTube and found a video of a test drive course overseas and showed it to you.
“Oh oh.”
Ko Hyeon-se and Ko Hyeon-seok’s eyes widened.
“We also test off-road performance. And do you have this track? They say running 100 km has the effect of running 10,000 km.”
“It’s a durability test!”
Ko Hyeon-se was amazed.
“yes. And there are hill courses too. If you make it without a racing track, you’ll save more space than you think. Find more videos like this.”
“Oh oh. I see.”
Ko Hyeon-se received a much better response than Ko Hyeon-seok and listened to the explanation.
“okay. I’ll study a lot before uploading the test drive course plan. Curzon!”
Ko Hyeon-se said to Ko Hyeon-seok.
“… all right.”
I knew that Ko Hyun-seok didn’t like titles like ‘Curzon’.
However, since the situation was going positively, he didn’t bother with the name.
“If the construction is finalized, will you publicize it?”
“ah. I should Wouldn’t this be covered even if a press release was spread on public news?”
Go Hyun-seok smiled and said.
While deliberately emphasizing the pronunciation of ‘airwave’.
Is it to stimulate me?
‘You must be jealous when a YouTuber talks about airwaves…’
“ha ha ha. Are you going to announce it on YouTube as well?”
“It should!”
Ko Hyeon-se, unaware of Ko Hyeon-seok’s intentions, replied brightly.
“oh. great. Then can I take a few videos while I’m being made?”
“ha ha ha.”
Ko Hyun-seok laughed.
“Why do I think our L Motors policy is going in the direction of creating a street for you to make a video of?”
“Uh. don’t talk like that If Brother takes a video, that becomes our advertisement, right? The ultimate beneficiary of advertising is the original advertiser.”
Ko Hyeon-se supported me.
“hahahaha. Iknow, right. Certainly, the L Group people supported me a lot in filming my videos. But, well, it would be nice if we could help each other.”
Saying this, I looked at Ko Hyeon-seok and smiled.
“Hyung-nim knows everything, but he’s deliberately hurting me again.”
I said the same, and offered a toast by holding out a glass.
“Ugh…”
Ko Hyun-seok made a clenching noise as if he was fed up with my reaction.
But anyway, it was awkward, but it was a friendly and rewarding place.
It goes without saying that they caught a good meal video.

The next day, I visited Sangsik’s studio.
– The first merger is Common Sense Studio. The second merger was the ＜What No One Does＞ studio.
An agreement was reached to set the order in this way.
It was because of the concessions of common sense.
He had consistently expressed his wish to visit our studio.
However, insisting on a ‘horizontal merger’ rather than coverage, the studio also suggested setting up a third location.
However, common sense made concessions through a compromise of ‘if that’s the case, in our studio’.
“Honestly, if you are going to merge, doesn’t the third studio look better than either studio?”
As I muttered, Beomsu said.
“well. Isn’t it just common sense that they want to brag that they had the privilege of being in our studio?”
“Hmm. do you think so That’s something to be proud of.”
I muttered as I touched my chin.
“That is our idea. First of all, since we have surpassed 1 million subscribers, we are a rising star in our own way. Common sense might want to brag about being treated on an equal footing with us.”
It wasn’t something that made no sense.
“Anyway, don’t overcomplicate it! Isn’t it natural to be curious about other channel studios? I am also secretly looking forward to Sangsik visiting the studio today.”
Beomsu patted me on the shoulder and said.
“okay. Maybe I’m too oversensitive.”
I also admitted this, and entered the studio of common sense.
“hello. Nice to meet you.”
Beomsu and I said our goodbyes and entered Sangsik’s studio.
“oh. welcome! It is an honour!”
Common sense greeted him with a smile.
“This is our shoot. This is our PD.”
And he introduced his staff to us.
Both were young men in their mid-twenties.
“Nice to meet you. My nickname somehow became ‘Purple Mask’. And this one…”
When I was about to introduce myself, Beomsu stepped forward.
“I am a criminal. I am in charge of filming and editing for ＜What No One Does＞. Nice to meet you.”
“yes. yes. Nice to meet you.”
Sang-sik and Beom-soo exchanged greetings beforehand.
This time, Beom-su’s self-introduction was directed at Sang-sik’s staff, but before they could answer, Sang-sik responded instead.
‘what. In the end, I didn’t even hear the names of the staff members.’
However, in the YouTube industry, revealing your name is not so essential, so I passed it without much thought.
“great. Then, shall we rehearse as we wrote the script? Let’s talk about the first three minutes and proceed with the recording right away.”
“oh. yes.”
When I hesitated a little, common sense asked with a smile.
“why?”
“Actually, we just filmed right away without rehearsals. Talking about rehearsals makes me rather nervous. hahahaha.”
“ha ha ha. I see. Actually, we don’t often shoot like this.”
Common sense laughed.
“great. Then I’ll do some camera settings.”
Beomsu finished setting up the equipment with a comfortable expression.
“Now, let’s go naturally.”
“yes.”
Common sense took the initiative, and I surrendered myself to the flow.
“hello. The hottest channel these days. We have invited ‘Purple Mask’, the operator of ＜What No One Does＞.”
Sang-sik, who looked at the camera and gave the opening remarks, turned his gaze to me.
“hello. You came today wearing a purple mask.”
“yes. hahahaha. Somehow, the nickname stuck like that. I’m trying to wear a purple mask when I’m in front of the camera.”
I replied with a smile.
In fact, before arriving at this studio, I was wearing a plain white mask.
Because that helps prevent unnecessary identity exposure.
Especially these days, when people like Park Jung-goo are stalking me, it’s even more desperate.
“Come on, cut the reaps. Please explain the secret to how ＜Nobody’s Doing＞ was able to gather subscribers in the early stages!”
“Ah yes. First of all, the YouTube algorithm is important. In addition to YouTube, it is important to know some of the algorithmic characteristics pushed by platforms.”
I started to answer.
“For example?”
“For example, the problem is how the video created by a beginner channel will be pushed to other people’s home screens using an algorithm, right?”
“Yes.”
“Then, in the end, you have to ride an algorithm that sees other videos. So, it has to be tied to an algorithm.”
“oh. I guess.”
“However, the principles tied to this algorithm are a bit different from what we commonly think. chamberlain…”
“okay. So far.”
Common sense interrupted me.
“I can tell just by rehearsing. Are you very good at explaining? He has a good voice. His diction is also excellent.”
Common sense praised me.
“thank you.”
I replied scratching my head.
“How about the screen?”
“great!”
Common sense asked, and the staff gave a bold answer.
“How does Beomsu look?”
“Very good!”
Beomsu answered by drawing a circle with his finger.
“great. Shall we finish the rehearsal here and start?”
“ah. Wait.”
“huh?”
“Because I rehearsed once for common sense-nim asking and me answering.”
“yes.”
“I think it would be better to change it up this time and have a rehearsal for me asking and answering questions.”
“ah. Will it?”
“yes. I’ll ask any question in the middle.”
“all right.”
Common sense corrected his posture and answered.
“I heard that Common Sense channel ran the channel without thinking about algorithms at first.”
“yes. that’s right. We thought that if we just uploaded a lot of interesting videos, we would get subscribers.”
“Then it must have taken a while to get back on track.”
I asked calmly.
“that’s right. In fact, it took much longer than we thought.”
Common sense said with a wry smile.
“So, did you use an algorithm in the middle?”
“yes. However, there are many things that we realized later that we used algorithms.”
“What do you mean?”
“I didn’t know at the time that it was an act of riding an algorithm, but I found out later.”
“aha.”
“Can we do it here?”
Common Sense smiled and asked.
“ah. yes. I think this will be enough for rehearsals.”
“yes. You are very good at asking questions. I think you are a real YouTube talent.”
Common sense praised again.
“Ugh. It’s so awkward because you keep praising me.”
I smiled bitterly.
“Now then, let’s proceed with the main recording!”
Recording began with common sense progress.
The first introduction, greetings, and algorithm questions proceeded the same as in the rehearsal.
“So, when an algorithm is tied to a certain channel, paradoxically, fighting is stronger than getting along?”
After my explanation of the algorithm, common sense asked.
“yes. that’s right. hahahaha.”
“I see. In the end, fighting with some channels in the beginning must have played a big role in gaining subscribers in the first place.”
“yes.”
First of all, up to this point, it was progressing according to the title of today’s video on the theme of ‘YouTube Algorithm’.
“But you don’t recommend picking a fight with another channel?”
“yes. In fact, that’s what makes it look hateful. We ended up fighting as a result, but in fact, we didn’t intentionally start a fight. I think you should be careful with that.”
“Hmm. okay.”
Sang-sik narrowed his eyes, and changed his tone slightly.
“By the way, even if you visit with an algorithm at first, it becomes a problem with the content to keep that viewer going, right?”
“I see…”
This is a question not in the script.
“By the way, could ＜Nobody Do It＞ survive at that stage without financial strength?”
Again a question not in the script.
“…”
Beyond the camera, I could see Bum-soo’s frowning face.
