章節 47: PR (4)
Across the Metube account of Producer10, were 40 pre-scheduled live streams, one for each remaining contestant. Even then were the standout contestants clear.
Mi Yong and Jung Hyun-Ok had chats with similar viewers. Both in the 2,000 range and with hundreds of likes even pre-stream. Their chats were both active with an array of half-censored death threats and arguments.
@miyongsleftball_: omg ur just jealous cuz ur man can't even sing
@hyunokgf: girl don't even play… ur man can't even lead a team
@miyongsleftball_: now yk damn well…
Joon-woo was in a category of his own, just hitting the 1,000 range viewer wise. However instead of a chat of death threats and bickering fans like Mi Yong and Jung Hyun-Ok had, the chat was full of… mundane talks?
Ryeo Hyun and Bo Jaesang, while definitely not in dead last, but the viewer counts were just about the 300s, chats dead as could be in waiting.
The same proved for Reggie, who's viewer count was just below Joon-woo in the 800s. It was as if the fans were bonding pre-stream. Talking about their profound love for Joon-woo or Reggie, and some even both.
Already, shippers had infiltrated the fandom… with messages like:
@kpopgirlie123333: Their height difference is everything ♥️♥️♥️♥️
@pinkblack_ontop: the way they look at each other literally gives me butterflies
@mrcheese1111: ya'll r freaks!!!!! Joon-woo and Reggie are real people!!!
It was 2:55 P.M. and streams were set to start at 3:00 P.M.. However, as if the fan's impatience had been witness to the gods, the blank Producer10 theme screens that had been everchanging for almost an hour now, suddenly changed to black.
Fangirls and guys alike cheered as their favorite contestants appeared on screen. Waving towards the camera with their respective live topics set up around them. Excited reactions flowed through each chats, no matter the topic.
However, reactions flowed the most heavy in the chats of Jung Hyun-Ok and Joon-woo.
Jung Hyun-Ok stood in front of a camera with his usual calm expression. This time however, he wore a green cape, light brown leather jacket with a familiar feather patch etched into it. He for a white button up with a harness tight and squeezing against his chest. He was truly Levi Ackerman.
"Hello viewers…" He greeted with a small smile, "As you can see my topic for the live is uh–" He cheeks grew red. "Cosplay…"
@hyunokgf: aot cosplay?????????
@peepmej2h: someone get a screenshot of this 😂😂😂😂😂
@wonbinsfavguitar: Jung Hyun-Ok you're my favorite Levi ever!!!!!!!
@hyunokgf: hahaha
@04liner_stan: he's so embarrassed 😭😭😭😭😭
Jung Hyun-Ok played with the harness strap, "Aish– this is a little uncomfortable. Really, these cosplayers are really respectable for dressing up in such uncomfortable things…" He went on. "But definitely Joon-woo is having a worse time!" He said.
@wonbinsfavguitar: joon-woo?
@winner4life: Jung Hyun-Ok you are so hot 🥵🥵
@winner4life: pls notice me
@hyunokgf: hahaha no way, Joon-woo is cosplaying Sailor Moon!!!
@jungoongirlie: why r we talking ab joon-woo here???? Hyun-Ok tell us about youuuu
Jung Hyun-OK read the chat with ease, "Ahh, you see– Joon-woo is cosplaying as a girl character for this live… but me? Hmm… What should I say?"
@04liner_stan: who is the contestant you're closet too???
@winner4life: who's your kpop inspiration?
Jung Hyun-Ok hummed, eyeing off-screen staff before replying. "Closet too? Definitely my roommates– who I can't say who they are! But they are very kind so please be excited for the next episode." He paused, "Ahh, my inspiration..?"
As Jung Hyun-Ok's chat fawned over the cosplay in moderation, Joon-woo's calm nature had taken a turn of chaos.
When Joon-woo appeared on screen, decked out in a long haired blond wig. He wore the iconic gloves up to his elbow, sailor top and bow flat against his chest. The most embarrassing part of all, though, was the knee-length blue skirt.
Joon-woo had his hands over his face and he was squatting into himself as if wanting to hide.
@wildboyzmc1: hahaahah no way
@joonwoo4vote: omg my baby 🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱
@multistaninfection: someone save him he looks so embarrassed
@joonwoo4vote: cutie ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
@dinosaurloved4918: why does he lowkey pass a girl tho
@treehugger11: literally like I would hit tbh…
@multistaninfection: he's freshly 18 tf u saying…
"Hello viewers…" Joon-woo grumbled in his shame.
@i_luv_onces: 🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱
@busanswings: my cutie patootie
"I think my topic for this live is clear… Um… Uh– thank you for all the support thus far…" Joon-woo muttered his thanks with his voice soft.
@dinosaurlover4918: you cannot tell me he doesn't pass as a girl
@multistaninfection: kys
"If any one has anything they'd like to know about me or– anything I will do my best to answer…" Joon-woo nodded, reading something off screen.
@wildboyzmc1: how long have u been a trainee?
@busanswings: who have you gotten close with on the show? (reggie probably lol)
@joonwoo4vote: how do you sing so well????
Joon-woo uncovered one eye to read the questions. "Uhh… I have been a trainee for– I think two years now." He revealed a bit hesitantly. Really, most people on the show had been trainees for much longer, so he felt a bit bad.
"Someone I've gotten close with? Probably my roommates… which I don't think has been aired yet. But Reggie and I are close friends." Joon-woo nodded, still trying yo hide the full look of the cosplay.
@i_luv_onces: not Mi Yong?
Joon-woo paused at the message, he had forgotten they editors had made them seem closer than they were. "Mi Yong too, yes." He nodded, "And how do I sing so well?" He chuckled at the question. "That's a weird question, I don't really think I sing too well…" He spoke with a small touch of acting.
@joonwoo4vote: nooo dont say that 😭😭😭😭
@busanswings: you actually outsing the industry tbh
@multistaninfection: awww have confidence joonwoo
@wildboyzmc1: your busking videos are so good!!!! 😍
Joon-woo tilted his head at that, "Busking videos?"
–+–
Joon-woo held his phone overhead with his mouth hung open and hair wet with the shower he had just taken. The lives had gone alright, for most people anyway. Joon-woo and Jung Hyun-Ok were still recovering from the trauma.
Not only had Joon-woo had to cosplay AND crossdress at the same time, but he also found out that a popular tourist couple had included his busking in their travel vlog. He had tried to recall their faces upon looking them up, and he remembered them as the young couple from his first day of busking.
Really, upon his research, he had found that they had over a million followers on Witter and half a million subscribers on Metube. And in the Korean leg of their trip they had decided to edit a minute and a half long snippet of him busking. And when he had looked up his name on Witter, various clips of him could be found.
Him asking for support on Producer10, him playing guitar only, to singing only, and even doing both. People who hadn't even known the show existed were reached by the clips.

I don't even watch these shows but I might start if there's faces like that…
@miyongsleft_ball replying to @J2hworld_domination
Please do watch! Our Joon-woo is a great singer and has unlimited facecard 😋
On Metube too, the clips of various songs he had played and sung had begun to go viral not even under his name! Stuff like 'Idol trainee' and 'Korean student' were getting thrown around and how could Joon-woo break it to them that he was in fact, not a student but a drop out?
He was more worried about it than anything more. Yes, he was getting praise left an right, but he knew that the producers would soon be on his ass about it… He imagined how they would pull him aside and scold him repeatedly. He imagined they would tell him off for busking, for promoting himself with such a thing.
Really, wouldn't the producers hate him too now? Worse than the rest of the contestants?
"You're viral, man, why not cheer up?" Bo Jaesang asked, leaning on the ladder of his top bunk a bit drowsy.
"Because the producers are gonna kill me for this…" Joon-woo replied, curling into himself on his bottom bunk with an exasperated sigh.
He imagined just how much the cosplay would boost this sudden train of recognition and buried himself into the blanket further.
"Lucky you man, I could barely reach 350 viewers. You wanna know how high you and Hyun-Ok Hyung peaked at?" Bo Jaesang asked, "Jung Hyun-Ok, 5,000 and you? 4,000." He looked at Joon-woo in disbelief. "Really I would've taken the cosplay topic any day if it meant such a viewer count…"
Joon-woo thought for a moment, because maybe the only thing the cosplay hurt was his pride… He did get four times the viewers for such a topic after all. But then the all evil, confusing and stupid Baek Du-Ho filled his head.
He had been the one to pick 'Cosplay' for Joon-woo and Joon-woo hated his guts the most and he swore his feelings would never change. Really, Bark Du-Ho was a two-faced person who deserved nothing more than Joon-woo's ignorance. Joon-woo would never recognize something a two-faced prick would do.
Really, he never would, ever.
