갤주는 유명한 분탕러였다
Finally, she's leaving.
The parasitic bitch freeloading at our newlywed home...!
Today was finally the day Ji-min was heading back to Korea.
I wanted to return home and enjoy sweet newlywed life with Lily, but this leech of a woman who kept interrupting our time together was finally going away.
"Waaah~ Ji-min. You have to come visit again next time, okay?"
Lily was tearfully seeing Ji-min off at the front door.
She must be sad about it.
"Waaah. Sis, but can you come visit me instead?"
Even at the moment of parting, Ji-min couldn't hold back her laziness about coming all the way to America and said something like that.
Watching from the side, I wondered what the hell she was doing.
The flight was at night anyway, so I had planned to take Ji-min to the airport, and Lily was staying home.
That's why they were carrying on like this at the front door right now.
"Sis, you have to call me a lot, okay? Okay?"
"Got it, Ji-min! I'll call you every day, sis!"
"Every day might be a bit much, sis..."
With the time difference, daily calls would be tough.
My heart felt light, so my steps were especially bouncy.
"Alright~ We'll see each other again next time. We have video calls too. Time's up. Lily, I'll drop Ji-min off and come back."
"Okay~ Honey, drive safe."
And then Lily gave Ji-min one last big hug and whispered something in her ear.
After listening to Lily for a moment, Ji-min suddenly burst out laughing.
What the hell. Why are you excluding me?
I was curious what she had said.
In the car heading to the airport with Lily seeing her off.
"Hey. What did Lily say that made you laugh like that?"
"Hehehehe. Secret~ It's a secret between girls~ I won't tell you~"
Seeing Ji-min teasing me like that, I was starting to regret booking her a business class seat a little.
We arrived at the airport before I knew it.
We waited together for about two hours, went through check-in, and I made sure she went through the gate.
Well.
It was midnight now, so by the time she arrived in Korea, it'd be past lunchtime.
I messaged my brother.
My brother was so straightforward, judging by his reply.
My brother was the type who was like watered-down alcohol—pure and bland.
I had no idea what was going through his head.
"Heh~ Now, shall we head home?"
Lily and my happy newlywed home!
With one freeloading family member gone, I felt excited at the thought that I could now freely express affection to Lily without holding back.
Today, the Stock Gallery was seething with rage.
Comments started pouring in under one post.
The policies announced by the Ministry of Women’s Affairs drew the ire of every man in South Korea.
Stuffing their faces with so much taxpayer money, and all they do is suppress individual freedoms for the benefit of one gender?
Then, another breaking news hit the gallery.
And soon, a post capturing reactions from femcel communities went up.
The community was utter chaos.
The state institutions and legislature were starting to move to target one individual.
A few hours later.
A long post appeared on the community tab of the YouTube channel 'Lily Flower Has Bloomed'.
Ji-hoon, seeing the South Korean government make the first move, pulled aggro without hesitation.
A terrifying declaration: Let's see who wins.
And...
Ji-hoon's YouTube subscribers numbered 50 million, matching South Korea's entire population.
His message spread faster and stronger than any government statement, across the world.
Ji-hoon's post spread instantly across all communities.
The reactions were explosive.
On the surface, the reactions were lighthearted.
But underneath, serious movements considering emigration were stirring.
South Korea was already one of the countries with massive underground population outflow.
Especially among young men, the defection rate was severe.
Talented people who had language skills but hesitated due to vague fears of settling abroad.
They started seriously considering after seeing Ji-hoon's job posting.
Ji-hoon's intent in asking for resumes was simple.
'Brain drain.'
South Koreans, boasting world-class education fever.
Accelerating the outflow of prime workforce who should be working and paying taxes.
Ji-hoon had shaken the board so much that the government couldn't even focus on him.
'lol Try blocking this? You'll be busy.'
That was exactly his mindset.
And Ji-hoon's 50 million YouTube subscribers were spread worldwide.
They witnessed in real-time how the Korean government treated its citizens and why they wanted to leave.
The South Korean government ended up utterly humiliated on the world stage.
This was the prelude to the conflict between Ji-hoon and South Korea.
What is shitposting?
With South Korea seriously targeting him, Ji-hoon pulled massive aggro in return.
He'd done it before.
In the main gallery where he was active, some high-nick user kept picking fights with him for no reason.
Pissed off, Ji-hoon unleashed 'clone technique'.
He made clone accounts mimicking that user's nick and ID as closely as possible, roamed other galleries all day posting insane shitposts.
All kinds of aggro and retarded shit, screenshots dumped back in the main gallery.
As a result, pissed users from other galleries invaded the main one and beat the hell out of that high-nick user.
He protested it wasn't him, but the evidence was too clear, no one believed him.
In the end, attacks on Ji-hoon vanished without a trace.
It was the same context now.
'Shitpost something so massive they can't focus on you. Make it huge, stinky.'
Ji-hoon had pulled aggro, now he just watches reactions and responds.
The patterns were similar anyway, so responses would be too.
Could desk-jockey government nerds predict the moves of a 'troll master' tempered by gallery wars?
They'd have splitting headaches for a while.
"Honey! Why are you grinning so slyly?"
At Lily's words, Ji-hoon quickly changed his expression.
"Huh? No. Thinking of you just makes me smile. Am I sick?"
"Hehe, really? How does my husband say such pretty words?"
"In Korea, they say if your wife is pretty, you bow to the in-laws' post. We're a sweet-talking nation."
"There's really a saying like that?"
"Of course."
"Hehe, okay. Peck for you."
Lily lightly hugged him and gave Ji-hoon a bird kiss.
- Mwah!
As her soft lips touched, Ji-hoon's mood melted like snow.
Being with Lily simplified everything.
"Up you go!"
"Kyaa!"
Ji-hoon scooped Lily up and sat her on his lap.
"You really coming tomorrow?"
"Yeah! It's the place we first met! I want to go sometimes and help struggling people."
"Hmm... Well, prepare well. Gotta slather on sunscreen? Sun's hot tomorrow."
"Yes! Don't worry!"
That's right.
Tomorrow was regular volunteer day.
Lily wanted to come too, and Ji-hoon had eventually agreed.
