Chapter Title: Final Stream Before the Japan Trip
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Now the Japan trip to celebrate Dad's birthday was right around the corner.
Actually, while preparing, I realized this was my very first overseas trip.
So I got my first passport, looked up how to board a plane, prepared this and that, and even packed my suitcase.
Travel prep was done to the point where I just had to head to the airport. Now there was only one thing left.
One duty left to fulfill as Miro, not Kim Suhyun.
I wouldn't be able to stream while traveling, so I had to let the viewers know in advance, right?
I couldn't announce it yesterday because I was playing Beat Saber, so I had to do it today, right before the trip.
Well, it was only a 2-night, 3-day trip, so it wouldn't be a big deal if I didn't say anything, but still, wasn't I the kind VTuber Miro who was nice to everyone?
[No Beat Saber (Announcement today)]
And so, for the final stream before the trip and to make the announcement, I turned on the broadcast.
-Fr no Beat Saber?
-Big Miro
-Announcement?
-Finally not doing it ffs
-Miro announcement special) It's nothing lol
-Just start the game
"Nice to see you all."
-Yeah
-So what's the announcement?
-Spill it quick;
I shook my head at the viewers urging me the moment the stream started.
Look at their lack of patience. What's the harm in waiting a bit more relaxed?
"Wait until the others arrive."
[Thanks for the 1,000 won donation from ㅇㅇ!]
Wouldn't that mean we're the ones at a loss for coming early?
-Fr lol
-True that lol
-Yeah when you put it like that
"Ahem, who told you to come early? You can't urge me to start quickly after arriving before the flight departs."
-Hmm... yeah that's fair
-You're not a plane tho
-Just say it now and repeat later when people join
"Alright, everyone, what did you all do today?"
-Me
-Don't ignore us
-Lock
-Ignoring viewers?
-Reporting to Lekka
A sigh escaped me at the chat window already heating up just minutes into the stream.
But anyway, I'd gotten so used to it that the heat now felt lukewarm.
"Alright, everyone calm down. You weren't just at home all day, right? Let's chat a bit while we wait for the others."
-I was just at home???
-Picking a fight?
-Me
-I watched a movie today
-What's wrong with being at my own house
-Lock
"Hmm, you watched a movie. Movies are great. Anything good out lately?"
Come to think of it, it had been forever since I last saw one.
They say everything's on OTT these days, but I hardly watched that either, so I didn't know much.
-Lately no good movies at all
-So what's the announcement?
-Chuseok brings a bunch tho
Hmm... speaking of movies, it hit me—doing a watch party with viewers later could be fun.
What movies haven't I seen? Or new anime.
Maybe do a poll later? Nah, just ask now.
"How about we do a watch party or something, everyone?"
-Suddenly??
-O
-Yes pls
-Now?
"No, not now, later."
-Oh
-Tell us later then
-Why spoil it;
"Spoil?"
-Yeah;;
-Dumb
-No spoiling stream content
-Dumb
Sheesh, now they're trying to start fires over anything.
Not on my watch.
"It wouldn't be a spoiler if I don't do it, right? Sigh, then I'll cancel."
-Sorrysorry
-(Kneeling emoticon)
-Sorry
-(Hand up emoticon)
The viewers immediately surrendered at the word "cancel."
Yeah, this was the proper Miro stream.
"My goodness, I wasn't saying it to get apologies."
-Oh really?
-(Standing up straight emoticon)
-Not sorry then
-Sigh, knew it
"Then I'll cancel as planned."
-Sorry
-(Kneeling emoticon)
-Pls do the watch party...
We went back and forth like that, locked in a life-or-death banter with the viewers, until eventually everyone who was coming had joined—it was time for the announcement.
"Alright, now the announcement."
-Finally
-Took you long enough
In the midst of the viewers' frenzy demanding I hurry up, I said what I'd prepared.
"This is my last stream today."
The chat paused for a moment.
Then.
-???
-????
-Fr??
-For real??
-Why tho??
I flashed a satisfied smile at the chat exploding like there was lag.
"I'm going to Japan tomorrow. This is the last stream before the trip."
-You bastard lol
-Lmaoooo
-Knew it
-Sigh
"No way it's the last stream ever? I still have to do that watch party I mentioned."
-Fr
-Gotta do the watch party lol
-Gotta watch LoL placement
-Get a job then quit streaming
"Whoa, get a job? You haven't yet?"
-????
-This is controversial af;
-Wtf do you know!
-There's a story behind it...
Oops, did I hit a nerve? I raised my hands at the explosive reactions, like I'd stabbed a weak spot.
"It came out with zero malice, so calm down first."
-Who can calm down rn?
-Fr if you're mad you should've gotten a job lol
-Was there really no malice??
[Thanks for the 5,000 won donation from ㅇㅇ!]
But why Japan?
"Oh, the Japan trip? It's to celebrate my dad's birthday."
-Kya lol
-Big filial daughter
-How long?
"2 nights, 3 days. Honestly, first overseas trip ever, so I'm kinda excited."
-Bring slippers for the plane
-Do a backflip at security
-Passport optional, just bring photo
"Wow, really? Thanks for all the pro tips~"
I gave a casual thanks to the travel hacks popping up in chat and opened the Fan Cafe. Since I was heading out today, I figured I'd read through the popular posts.
My viewers were mostly from communities, so over half the popular Fan Cafe posts were memes, and they were hilariously entertaining.
The reactions were good too.
"Wow, so many. How many pages?"
Maybe because I hadn't checked in a while? Even sorted by popular, there were tons piled up.
-You never check
-Gotta read 'em all today lol
-Catch up on homework lol
"Well, let's go one by one."
Plenty, but popular posts, so fun to read—not too bad.
I started from the first dumb meme post and scrolled down until an eye-catching title popped up.
[Is this real, Miro-nim??]
What? What's real?
Popular post, so probably not nonsense.
Clicked in, and there was a video.
Short clip, looks like an avatar—Haru?
-Gasp
-Inhale
-Oh this
-Let's watch quick
-Wut
Reactions showed some had already seen it.
My curiosity piqued even more as I clicked play. It opened to Haru chatting with viewers on Notepad.
[Oh, that time Anna-unnie~]
Talking about members, it seemed.
Did she mess up big time?
Internet streaming was structured so slip-ups were inevitable.
Talking solo for hours, random thoughts slip out—not weird.
[Miro? With Miro, the more I see her...]
The more I see?
Oh, making me tense for no reason.
Hopefully not something bad.
[She'd probably nail anything~ Lately hanging out, I feel like if she weren't a VTuber, she'd be on TV—overboard? No, she really shines!]
Hmm... just praise?
Listened more, but yeah, nothing big.
Falsely alarmed.
-Kya lmao
-TV tho..
-Would've gone to college if not VTuber ㅇㅇ
-Would've failed anyway??
Viewers saw it differently, though.
Is "TV" such a heavy word?
Hmm... yeah, it carries weight. I'd experienced it.
Haru probably thought of that time too.
"For a popular post, it's nothing much. I'm so versatile and radiant by nature, praise like that's old news now."
-Fuck off
-BS is your top talent
-Next post?
-Japan trip must-dos posted in cafe, read that
"Japan trip must-dos? Oh, where?"
Truth was, heading to Japan tomorrow, but no big plans.
Just booked a hotel ahead; rest was freeform. So I quickly searched for the viewer-posted Japan travel guide.
"Oh, this one."
[Miro Must-See Japan Courses by Region]
Didn't know where I'd go, so all regions covered. I just read the Osaka part for tomorrow.
Post had photos and descriptions—high quality, not thrown together, seemed pre-existing summary.
Dotonbori, Osaka Castle, Universal Studios, etc. Tourist spots galore, as expected.
-Big gold
-Kya
-That's tourism lol
-Hmm... that all?
-Lucky Seoul?
"Ahem, recommend some spots."
-Go Universal
-Dotonbori restaurants touristy, find real food spots
-Gotta go to Japan first to recommend
-Just skip trip and stream
-Sigh what'll Miro even see
"Gonna stream long today, so hang tight."
-Kya lmao
-Big Miro
-Scam? lol
Well, 2 nights 3 days, but no streams during, right?
Can't stream tomorrow or the day after, so make today a long one.
"Next post?"
And so that day, I streamed late into the night, doing this and that.
