Chapter Title: Hyo-jeong Struggles with Computers...
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-While the room leader was goofing around with the editor, we got ditched and left all lonely.
-Been staring at that pitch-black screen forever waiting for the broadcast to start and ended up falling asleep.
"Sorry about that. I'll make sure it doesn't happen again next time."
- Just words?
- You gotta show it with actions, right?
- Even a little gesture of sincerity so we can feel it's genuine.
"Sincerity? What kind of sincerity?"
On screen, a pretty female streamer was shaking her hips energetically to the music.
It was the Zero Two dance.
They also sent a bunch of other clips reflecting their shady tastes.
"Oh..."
- This guy's enjoying it, huh?
- No, but why'd you go all appreciative mode out of nowhere lololol
- Is this really Lemon TV, the place that's super sensitive to TAS mentions?
- Honestly was wondering when they'd shut it down, but openly enjoying it themselves;
- At this point, might as well all enjoy together.
Under tacit agreement, we watched the parade of reactions.
This time, it was a woman doing an Arabian-style dance oozing sexiness.
"Whoa..."
- This is straight-up insane lololol
- Cam girl enjoying other cam girls ㄷㄷ
- Damn, Harin's form is on point
- That clip from Harin is legendary
I wondered where I'd seen it before—it was Harin, one of Lemon TV's Three Cam Queen legends.
So that's the power of the Three Queens.
The sensual, fluid curves of the dance had a hypnotic pull that drew you right in.
The world of cam girls was profound.
Everyone had their own unique charm, making it impossible to rank them—this place was full of absolute stunners.
"Alright, next!"
- This guy's hyped lolol
- We're enjoying it too, but is this really okay? lolol
- Lesu bros off the leash lol
- Lol when do we ever get to play stuff like this in a cam room lol
This clip opened to a pitch-black screen.
I stared at it, wondering what it was.
[KIIEEEEEEK!!!!!]
"Hyah!!!"
What the hell—a ghost popped up outta nowhere and I screamed my lungs out!
[KIIEEEEEEK!!!!!]
"Shit! How do I turn this off?!"
[KIIEEEEEEK!!!!!]
"Uwaaaak!! Get lost!!"
I finally found the force-quit button and shoved that nasty thing off my screen.
The aftershocks of that split-second lapse in judgment hit me late.
"Ow, fuck, what kinda bullshit is this to send? Argh, my heart hurts."
- That scream was booming—real manly man right here.
- Fml I jumped too watching it
- Use your damn blinker before pulling that shit next time, psycho lololol
- Room leader damn near had a seizure lololol
After that big scare, I got cautious with every clip.
Any black screen, I force-quit without even checking.
- PTSD hit hard lolol
- I get shivers just seeing black screens now...
- Serious case of Dark Screen Syndrome
- But it's so obvious and you still fell for it lol
- She's only been streaming a little over a month
- Oh, a newbie?
- Monster rookie ㄷㄷ (Viewers: 1500)
- Gasp
- Zero assassination resistance ㄷㄷ
- Now that you mention it...
- Big bro, we almost got fucked
Following the loyal advice, I started previewing clip contents from then on.
The screen filled with a feast of flesh tones—I flinched for a sec, but luckily it was a guy this time.
Lemon TV was pretty lenient on male exposure, so this was within bounds.
"Oh."
A bronzed, muscular build.
Muscles cracked like parched earth in a drought—you couldn't even guess how many years of abuse they'd endured.
Guy must've trained hard.
- Room leader can't peel his eyes off lololol
- Look at those sparkling eyes
- Doesn't even hide his desires
"No drool here. It's respect. I know from experience—building a body like that's no joke."
- Oh, Hyo-jeong's a gym girl?
- Never knew with those baggy hoodies all the time
- Room leader!! Share the good stuff!!
- Big bro, wanna hit the sauna with the fam sometime?
- Big bro at the sauna.avi
- ㅗㅜㅑㅗㅜㅑ
The guy in the video was showing off flashy stunts like one-handed push-ups with solid core strength or levitating on the pull-up bar.
"Kuh~ See? Men gotta work out, right?"
- Room leader likes muscle dudes noted
- Starting ab workouts right now
- Hitting the gym starting today
- Wellness stream caring for viewer health ㄷㄷ
"But me, I'm more into practical muscle over show muscles. Honestly, compact builds aren't prettier?"
- Cancel gym, heading to construction site now
- Construction sites got tons of stories...
- Hey Kim, why you here?
- Wanna impress a cam streamer
- What a shitty backstory
All sorts of bizarre clips popped up, but one caught my eye.
A car. A sleek, high-class sports car at that.
The majestic form that stirs a man's heart drew out an involuntary gasp.
"Whoa, check that style."
- Room leader into cars?
In the love-it-or-hate-it category, I'm definitely a fan.
Just feels like a distant star I'll never reach.
Not even a basic domestic car was a luxury for me, let alone a sports car.
Buses stopped running at dawn, so getting home after work was pure hell.
"Being a walker sucks..."
- Girls can just hitch a ride in a guy's car
"Hitch a ride? Those guys wouldn't know romance if it hit 'em."
I clicked my tongue at the lesus' ignorance.
"Cruising in a classy convertible sports car. Spot a cute girl on the street? Drive-by invite? Instant hunt success, blasting down the autobahn—that's the dream, kids."
- That's why you're the cute girl on the street position lololol
- Lol this fool denying reality again
- Guess you don't get it, street girl. We'll buy the car?? Just hitch a ride.
"Thinking about it, hitching a ride ain't bad. When else would I ride one?"
- Everyone hear that? How to win over Hyo-jeong
- Not easy
- Sports cars these days—what's the price?
- Like 200-300 mil?
- Off to construction site now
- Hey Park, why you here then?
- To give cam streamer a sports car ride
- Pair of damn idiots.
- lololololol
- lolololololol
- lolol
Toward the end of the clip, I swallowed hard gazing at the sports car's killer shine.
"I'm broke, so just this once—consider it a freebie."
- What're you letting us see?
- Stare all you want
- Window shopping's fun lol
That's when it happened.
The donation reeked of a shady used-car dealer scammer.
Our country's dealers are miracle workers turning impossible into possible.
One slip, and they'll slice your nose off.
But in this arena, I was invincible.
"No license."
- No license! (proud af)
- No license and dreaming of sports cars lol
- Was gonna tease about not even having a Class 1, but none at all? Didn't see that coming
- She don't even know what a real man is lolol
"Licenses cost money. No time either."
"Huh? Something like that exists?"
- Wait, could it be...?
- FriendlySmoothie—is that THE Smoothie?
- Lolololol
- This crazy bastard lolol why's he shilling here after losing his job lolol
The viewers' reactions suggested they knew something.
"What is it? Know the guy? Famous?"
- Big bro just ignore
- Shilling a shit game that can't even chart on U-Dil!!
- Impressive lolol game died so now promoting on Lemon TV?
- Smoothie (ex-KartRacer pro) (current Iris streamer)
- Lost job cuz game tanked lololol
Ah, game-related.
Iris streamers watch Lemon TV too, huh.
Thought they had some no-fly zone pact, but apparently not.
"KartRacer? That fun?"
- Nah total dead game
- If it was fun it wouldn't have died lol
- Smoothie pushes this shit on all his streamer buddies—total scumbag, just block
"But a pro gamer means he's gotta be real good, right?"
- 'Was' a pro gamer
- League existed. Doesn't anymore.
- Kart concurrent players hit 100 now?
- Once shook the world as a racing game...
- OG oil drum fan?
- Oil drum fml lololol
- That panic clip makes me dizzy every time lolol
- Just let it die quietly, who's digging it up
Smoothie's KartRacer play clip.
Cute characters and cars speeding on high tracks looked pretty cool.
The cutesy graphics contrasting with the intense speed felt decent.
"Looks kinda fun?"
- Oh no she's interested
- Dead game trait: vets so stacked newbies get wrecked
- Fr lol beyond stale, total stagnant swamp
"Okay. Challenge accepted."
- Who poked our big bro's berserk button
- Argh lol why drag an innocent kid into forcing another game
- This calculated, right?
- Master psychologist ㄷㄷ
- Smoothie laughing lol
- The provoker is actually Smoothie's alt—academic consensus
- OG viewer knows room leader's personality so reasonable suspicion
I quickly opened search and typed KartRacer.
But unlike my bold start, I hit a huge snag right away.
Made it to the homepage somehow, but then... no clue.
Mouse hovered lost at the game intro page.
"Guys, no game launch button?"
- Argh Hyo-jeong dummy lololol
- She's so obviously a no-gamer irl lolol
- Gotta play games to know
- Hyo-jeong struggles with computers...
Apparently modern games all need a launcher to access.
So first, download the launcher thing.
Hit the download tab as instructed—yep, launcher download right there.
Downloaded fast, hit launch.
New small window popped up.
Found KartRacer among the game icons, clicked it, and finally game access...
"Still not launching?"
- Gotta log in dummy
- Sign up first btw
- Lolol driving me crazy lolol
- Feels like teaching noona games for the first time lol
- Bittersweet from A to Z, big bro
- Hyo-jeong just struggles with computers...
