The Villain is Too Good at Broadcasting

Chapter 156 If You Can’t Bite, Don’t Bark (3)

To confess in advance, I don’t really like children that much.

Honestly, I tend to dislike them.

I find them quite cute until they enter kindergarten, but after that, I really dislike them.

Especially those in the peak age range from 6th grade to high school senior year.

Personally, it’s also because my school life and relationships weren’t very harmonious.

While others enjoyed their school life under their parents’ care, I had to struggle to cover Jin-hyuk’s hospital bills.

Maybe that’s why I personally don’t like students.

“Here’s today’s filming script. It would be good if you could review it in advance, too, Doo-sik.”

“Y-yes, sir!”

Doo-sik, who had been intimidated by me from the start, seemed very disciplined.

But it didn’t take long to realize that this was just his tactic.

Despite having been scolded by me, his spirit didn’t easily wane.

The so-called ‘attention seeker’s spirit.’

I’m quite good at noticing such things.

He was probably mentally celebrating with thoughts like ‘I’ve been rewarded by the industry!’ or some other pointless self-congratulations.

His behavior was consistent with someone who had identified himself as part of the Evil Gang.

After making eye contact with me, PD Son quickly explained today’s concept to both Doo-sik and me.

“Doo-sik, your role today isn’t very difficult. You usually broadcast at school, right?”

“I film in a vlog style.”

“Good. We’ve already gotten permission to shoot at the school today.”

Come to think of it, elementary school kids haven’t started their vacation yet.

It’s still the school term.

That means the place we’re heading to today is…

“We’re going straight to Ilsan Elementary School. Everyone, get in the car. The advance team has already gone to prepare. After spending some time at the school, we’ll head straight to the capsule room where the streamer module is installed.”

It seemed like they had planned the schedule quite tightly.

The bulldozer-like execution ability was clearly based on thorough planning.

It was the meticulousness common to successful people.

After exchanging brief greetings, we got into the vehicle and headed to Ilsan Elementary School.

A place about 15 minutes away by car.

As soon as we got out of the car, a strange scene unfolded.

“Waaaah!”

“It’s Wooriak!”

“Oppaaa!”

The kids were enthusiastically cheering for me, and some were even waving handmade placards.

Anyone would think a celebrity had arrived.

Or maybe Pororox?

……Or these days, Pengsox?

Anyway.

Seeing these elementary school kids recognize and cheer for me…

“I’m seriously worried about the future of this country.”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

The future of the country seemed bleak.

Watching my broadcasts at such a tender age when they should be dreaming big?

If my child did that, I might have shaved their head and locked them in solitary confinement.

My karma is truly great.

But I am a professional.

A pro should maintain professional composure even in the worst moments. I decided to at least wave to the enthusiastic kids cheering for me.

“Nice to meet you.”

Then, an unexpected reaction came from the kids.

“Oppaaa!”

“Please curse at us! We want to hear you curse live!”

“Wooriak! Wooriak! Wooriak!”

……After today’s broadcast, I should urgently ask the principal to confiscate these Satanic protégés’ phones immediately, or this school will soon turn into a den of demons.

I didn’t expect to be this popular among the kids.

I kept smiling as calmly as possible and quickly entered the classroom where the filming was scheduled.

My first assigned role was to give a speech to the students.

Since it was the first shoot of the program, I was supposed to introduce myself and share my vision.

I was asked to prepare in advance, but I didn’t expect to do it in front of children.

“Everyone! Famous MeTuber Shia is here to greet you. Please welcome him warmly!”

With the typical introduction of an elementary school teacher, I entered the prepared classroom.

Then, just like at the school gate, about 25 elementary students started cheering enthusiastically for me.

“Waaah!”

“It’s a celebrity! A celebrity!”

“Wow!”

They all looked at me with curious eyes. Yes, those are the pure eyes children should have.

But shortly after.

Seeing the kids take out their phones to film me one by one, I could only smile wryly.

At the back of the classroom, the cameras of the filming team were already rolling actively.

I began the first shoot by delivering the prepared greeting.

“Nice to meet you, kids. I’m Shia, a MeTuber and streamer.”

It’s polite to start with informal speech.

Formal speech?

It feels too awkward. And it didn’t match the program’s concept.

“Who here watches Twipod? Raise your hand.”

About 10 kids raised their hands.

My goodness. Far more than I expected.

I thought they all watched MeTube, but they even watch Twipod?

“Then, those who don’t watch my broadcast, put your hands down.”

Two out of the ten put their hands down.

I see.

I turned to the homeroom teacher standing beside me and said,

“Teacher.”

“Yes.”

“Please inform the parents of the eight kids still raising their hands.”

“How…?”

“Tell them their children are watching harmful videos. They’re exposed to content worse than pornography, so they should cancel their phone subscriptions as soon as possible. That would be best.”

Thus began my absurd nickname as ‘Shia, the Protector of Korean Elementary School Students.’

6.

Honestly, I don’t think I’m a person worthy of anyone’s respect.

Being a role model for children is even more out of the question.

Having more people like me around would only threaten my livelihood.

I had only one thing to say to the kids.

“You can do whatever you want, but only things you can take responsibility for. It’s good to get an early education on responsibility. Got it, kids?”

Talking about responsibility to young children might seem absurd.

But these days, kids are really smart.

To put it bluntly, they’re ‘shrewd.’

That’s the main reason I don’t particularly like kids.

It’s natural for younger generations to develop faster, but sometimes it feels excessive.

Especially when I read comments on MeTube.

Some of the malicious comments I confirmed during my recent lawsuit turned out to be written by elementary students.

When I first heard that, my head felt numb.

Upper elementary school students are old enough to understand the consequences of their actions.

So, I didn’t give them dreams and hopes.

Instead, I taught them reality and responsibility.

My character wasn’t meant to deliver heartwarming messages to those kids.

Thus ended the first scene of , the first task of the day, which was greeting the class.

Off the record.

As the cameras turned off, I relaxed a bit and asked the kids more casually.

“Since the cameras are off, let me ask you a few things comfortably. Kids, do you watch Doo-sik’s broadcasts?”

The kids in the classroom nodded at my question.

“Yes.”

“He’s the most popular MeTuber in our school.”

“He’s fun!”

“Thanks, kids.”

I’ve seen this kind of atmosphere a lot.

Most of the kids in the class said Doo-sik’s broadcasts were fun, and some boys even overreacted, trying to stand out.

It was like they were trying to get on Doo-sik’s good side.

No matter how times change, some things remain the same.

The power groups formed around strong friends.

Moreover, kids these days are more cunning, and they know they hold power themselves.

Just like Doo-sik right now.

I sat comfortably in a chair and connected my smartphone to the classroom projector.

Then I played one of Doo-sik’s videos that I had glanced at earlier.

Soon, the kids reacted.

“Kekeke.”

“This is freaking funny.”

“God Doo-sik, Kukuruku.”

“I better get on Doo-sik’s good side.”

They were all raving about how funny the video was.

The video was close to a normal vlog.

No, it wasn’t normal.

It was a villain-themed vlog where Doo-sik pranked and betrayed other kids.

He was replicating behaviors from games in real life.

In a way, it was quite impressive.

The reactions were too forced to be called leadership.

I glanced at PD Son, who nodded and directed the camera operator to start filming.

Alright.

Let’s throw a bit of reality check here.

“Doo-sik.”

I slowly called Doo-sik’s name, and he, who was already full of himself from the kids’ reactions, quickly ran over.

“Yes, hyung.”

I’ve never had a younger brother like you, so why do you keep calling me hyung?

Well, let’s move on for now.

What’s important right now is not what he calls me.

“Doo-sik, do you think the video is well-made?”

Setting aside the fun, the quality was quite low.

Since he’s still an elementary school student, it’s natural for the video quality to be low, but that’s not the point I was focusing on.

However, Doo-sik, unaware, nodded excitedly.

“The kids find it fun. Hyung, it’ll get better in the future, right?”

“Hmm, really?”

I nodded and brought my mouth close to Doo-sik’s ear.

And I said mercilessly.

“It’s not fun at all. Got it?”

“What?”

“Is it only your vlog that’s not fun? Oh, right. You also upload videos, don’t you?”

“…Yes.”

“I should check that out at the capsule room too. We’ll also do a live stream with the VRN broadcast account. How about that? If you stand out there, you might skyrocket in popularity. If your game broadcast is at least fun, I’ll give you a push.”

Then, the clueless Doo-sik got excited and nodded vigorously.

“I really play games well. I’ll meet your expectations.”

Alright, since I’ve set the stage, let’s move on to the next.

After finishing the first shoot at the school, we moved on to the next schedule.

After a brief farewell to the students, we arrived at a capsule room in Ilsan.

It wasn’t far from the school.

As soon as we entered the capsule room, the owner, who was already waiting for us, guided us to the streamer-dedicated capsule room.

Thus began the second part of the day’s filming.

As expected, I connected to the capsule and logged into the VRN broadcast with the admin account.

is essentially a program that runs concurrently with Twipod.

Since I had informed the viewers in advance, many people started joining as soon as I started the broadcast.

-Is this that secret lesson thing?

-You’re the student, I’m the teacher.

-Oh wow, lololol

-Shia as a teacher? Oh shit, lol, I’m making him my teacher for life!

-Hi hi, Mom! I’m on cable TV!

As expected, the members of the Evil Gang joined, and Doo-sik’s eyes sparkled.

As expected of an attention seeker, he got excited as the number of viewers increased.

I sighed while looking at Doo-sik and then greeted the viewers.

“Nice to see you. Since today is a regular broadcast, it’ll be a bit milder, so keep that in mind, and let me introduce today’s guest. Doo-sik, say hello.”

Then Doo-sik, just like the first time he saw me, bowed 90 degrees to the viewers.

“Hello, sirs. I’m Doo-sik, a 6th grade MeTuber from Ilsan Elementary School, considering Shia as the greatest teacher of my life.”

His lines flowed smoothly as if he had prepared in advance.

Despite his age, his fluent lines elicited quite positive reactions from the viewers.

-He’s good at talking, lol

-He must have eaten well when he was young.

-Is he really an elementary student? His physique is definitely not.

As expected of a new program attempted by VRN, the number of viewers increased rapidly.

After Doo-sik finished his introduction, I immediately launched .

“My role in this program is to give pointers. The purpose of this program is to discover and nurture aspiring MeTubers…”

And guiding the younger ones onto a good path would be great, too.

About 30 minutes after I started broadcasting with Doo-sik.

“Doo-sik.”

“Y-yes?”

“Are you in your right mind? Are you crazy?”

The anticipated disaster happened.
