089. Boisterous Large-Scale Collab
Real name Park Jin-ha.
Stream name Thicc Ass.
He was a broadcaster active on an adult platform, with strip streams as his main content.
And.
He was also an alumnus who had attended the same high school as Gye Se-hun.
‘Why was Gye Se-hun here...’
Park Jin-ha had been aware of the fact that Gye Se-hun had started streaming.
Because at one point, various online communities had heated up over the emergence of a handsome new male cam streamer.
But he hadn't paid it any particular mind.
Even though the guy was a figure who had instilled trauma in him, he'd figured they would never cross paths again in life anyway.
‘Fuck... I never thought I'd run into him in a place like this...’
Park Jin-ha felt his body instinctively shrink.
His school days.
He still couldn't forget that look in Gye Se-hun's eyes when he used to beat him mercilessly.
Those hollow eyes glimpsed through the strands of hair.
Eyes so drained of emotion they looked desiccated.
Those chilling eyes still remained a trauma.
‘This was insane, seriously. And why the hell did I go and call his name...’
He couldn't pretend not to know him now.
Not when he'd already blurted out Gye Se-hun's name.
Park Jin-ha, concluding that Gye Se-hun must have recognized him too, ultimately resolved to greet him as if nothing was wrong.
So as not to upset him.
With the most groveling expression he could manage.
***
Park Jin-ha awkwardly waved his hand and greeted me.
"Seh, Se-hun, right? Haha, fancy meeting you in a place like this, what a coincidence... It's really been a while...!"
I didn't know why he was acting like that.
Were we on greeting terms?
No matter how I thought about it, we were not on those kinds of terms.
We were on the kind of terms where it would've been a relief if we didn't just start punching and kicking each other the moment we reunited.
【Plum Tree】─Is Se-hun your friend?
【Hottie Licker】─Looks like it? Ptew.
【Dick Lover】─Don't spit, you fucking psychobitch.
【Reformed Guburi】─Oh. He was your friend? lol...
【Qkrnfl892】─Guburi. lol Just a moment ago she was going off cursing, like, what's with that big-headed guy, but the second she finds out he's Se-hun's friend she quiets right down.
【Reformed Guburi】─Since when did I do that. Fuck.
【Drift AI】─I will speak. I state that the human is garbage not even fit for recycling.
【Yoho】─Gasp.
【Min-ji】─Even if they say he's the streamer's friend, she doesn't cut him any slack-yong.
【Reverse-Rape Maniac】─Se-hun really doesn't hold back his words even with a friend.
【Bubblegum Collector】─Wakyapya! Drift really doesn't hold nothing back!
【Gyejipsa】─Warkyarpya! No brakes!
【BigGirl】─Hm.
Perhaps because Park Jin-ha had greeted me, the viewers were under the misunderstanding that the guy was my friend.
Not a friend, more like a sworn enemy.
I considered offering that clarification but decided against it because it was too much trouble.
"Yeah. It's been a while."
And I accepted his greeting.
After all, he'd acted like he knew me first, and it would've been embarrassing for him if I ignored him and walked by.
Well, the past was just the past, so I decided not to care about it.
I didn't hold any particular grudge against Park Jin-ha anyway.
And Park Jin-ha seemed like he didn't dwell on what happened back then either.
"H-Have you been doing well since graduation?"
"So-so."
After I answered Park Jin-ha's question.
No further conversation was exchanged.
After that.
While an awkward atmosphere was lingering.
"Then I'll head to my own table...! Have fun, Se-hun..."
Park Jin-ha was the first to say goodbye and left the spot.
He had a terrified expression to the very end.
Just as I was about to start walking again after that.
Cheerful Namsu, who had been observing this whole situation from up ahead, asked a question.
"Se-hun. Did you know that guy?"
"He's my high school alumnus."
"Ahh. An alumnus. I was wondering why you'd know a person who does strip streams."
"Strip streams?"
"What. You didn't know he does strip streams? Guess you guys aren't that close."
"We're not even friends, just alumni. But wait, that guy does strip streams?"
"Yeah. He's called Thicc Ass, and his streams are extremely explicit, so he's got some recognition in the strip streaming scene. Oh, but of course, I have absolutely zero personal connection to him."
I had just learned a fact I hadn't wanted to know.
And imagining Park Jin-ha naked made me feel nauseous.
‘Thicc Ass, for fuck's sake, really.’
I swiftly erased the guy from my head.
Because it felt like my brain would get contaminated.
***
【Reverse-Rape Maniac】─But there's a fuckton of men here. The women around here sure are blessed, for real.
【Yoho】─They're not blessed because there are many men, they're blessed because the streamer is here.
【Reverse-Rape Maniac】─I'll concede that.
Checking the chat window from time to time, I arrived at the reserved seats.
But.
The location of the reserved seats was the absolute worst, enough to make me sigh involuntarily.
The reason was none other than Park Jin-ha being seated at the table right next to us.
‘...Couldn't even move because the place was completely packed.’
First, I sat down with my back turned toward Park Jin-ha.
Because if I saw the guy's face, it felt like the image of him doing strip streams would naturally pop into my head.
To forget the fact that Park Jin-ha was behind me, I kept up some meaningless chatter with Cheerful Namsu.
"But why didn't Hyeon-ji come with you?"
"Ah. She has a lot of work to do, so I didn't bring her."
"Work to do? She just freeloads and does nothing."
"Usually, yeah, but lately she's been really busy because of lawsuits."
"Huh? What lawsuits all of a sudden?"
"Malicious comment terrorism has been really severe these days. I tried to let reasonable stuff slide, but the more I let it go, the more people started crossing the line."
"...That's rough."
Cheerful Namsu set up his camera while chatting with me.
It looked like he was about to start recording soon.
He said he hadn't originally planned on recording.
But he couldn't pass up filming the rare spectacle of a bar filled entirely with streamers.
Spoken like a true professional broadcaster.
"Hyeon-su. You're not doing a live broadcast?"
"Nope. I did a live broadcast for way too long earlier and I'm tired. Right now, I'm just going to film separate footage for Neotube videos."
After Cheerful Namsu answered that.
He looked at my camera with a surprised expression.
"...Ah, right! Look at me, so scatterbrained! I still haven't greeted the viewers on your stream yet!"
Cheerful Namsu scratched his head as if embarrassed.
With a cheerful smile befitting his stream name, he waved his hand toward the camera and greeted them.
"Hello! My name is Cheerful Namsu! My greeting's a little late, isn't it? Haha!"
【Hottie Licker】─Yeah, okay.
【Yoho】─You sure greet people quickly.
【Plum Tree】─Get your face out of the way.
【Reformed Guburi】─Your greeting is late as fuck, you dumbass. Put your head down and apologize properly.
【Bubblegum Collector】─Wakyapya! Apology should come first, no?
【Gyejipsa】─Wakyapya! No manners at all!
【Drift AI】─I will speak. I state that I am pleased to meet you.
【Qkrnfl892】─Drift you bastard, why are you greeting Cheerful Namsu perfectly normally? lmao
I decided not to show him the chat window.
Because if he saw the messages from my malicious viewers, Cheerful Namsu might get upset.
"Se-hun. Can't I look at the chat window too?"
"No."
I would absolutely never show it to him.
【Yoho】─?? Why are you trying to hide us?
【Reformed Guburi】─Gye Bastard-hun. Are you embarrassed of us?
【Bubblegum Collector】─Wakyapya! We mortifying or something?
【Gyejipsa】─Wakyapya! -_-!
【Dick Lover】─Even I'd be embarrassed of you guys.
【Reverse-Rape Maniac】─fr lol
【Hottie Licker】─The two critters above should be embarrassed of their own nicknames first. Lick.
【★Hun's World】─Guys. Did you make a pact to ruin my personal relationships or something? Don't cross the line, seriously.
I left a short warning in the chat.
Because if the broadcast kept going.
Cheerful Namsu might happen to see my phone.
They'd only stay quiet if I warned them in advance.
【Gyejipsa】─Warkyarpya! Weren't your personal relationships already ruined from the start? Pretending to care about it now, so cringe! lol
【Min-ji】─Hm. That doesn't look like a message Gyejipsa typed-yong.
【Drift AI】─I will speak. I state that the message was typed by Bubblegum Collector.
【BigGirl】─Must mean they're still together, I see.
【Dick Lover】─Yeah that Bubblegum bastard slept over at Se-hun's place yesterday.
【Reformed Guburi】─Sex Ppaguri~
【Gyejipsa】─Wakyapya! Sex-pang!
【Hottie Licker】─Lick!
【Reverse-Rape Maniac】─Ha-ahht!
"..."
It looked like it would be right to seal these guys for a while.
Because they were insane bitches who must not be let out into the world.
Except for Drift.
Just as I was about to restrict the chat of the remaining viewers.
"Sniff, sob..."
Out of nowhere, I heard sniffling from behind me.
It was an artificial crying sound, like someone acting out the tragic male lead of a melodrama.
‘What was it?’
I reflexively turned around to look.
The person crying was none other than Park Jin-ha.
Just as I was wondering what the hell was suddenly wrong with that bastard.
<The school violence perpetrator, apologize right now!>
A voice donation flowed out from the direction of Park Jin-ha's table.
At that, Park Jin-ha swallowed his snot and timidly tried to dissuade his viewers.
"Guys, stop it... I'm telling you, I'm really scared."
<You shouldn't let something like this just slide.>
<School violence perpetrator, apologize!>
<The man in black clothes behind. Hurry up and apologize!>
<Oh, what the. He's fucking handsome though? Maybe he doesn't have to apologize?>
<Don't say stupid shit.>
<The school violence perpetrator, get down on your knees and apologize right now!>
The voice donations kept bursting out incessantly.
Apparently.
While communicating with his own viewers, Park Jin-ha had talked about the things he had experienced in the past, spinning them into a story.
