I Want to Be a VTuber Chapter 82 (82/718)

10 min read2,440 words

An advertisement was playing on the billboard by the road.

The first thing that caught the eye was a pitch-black dress.

A black dress perfectly matched with black hair.

A woman sleeping in the darkness like a fairy.

It was a quiet and tranquil advertisement.

But there was something oddly captivating about it.

Some of the people walking by turned their eyes to the advertisement.

"Who is that?"

"It's Eclat Etoile. Wasn't that where Song Hee-bin used to advertise?"

Women walking while having such a conversation.

It was then.

A small drop of dew fell on the sleeping woman's cheek.

Like a small starlight falling.

Sparkling as it fell, it slowly rolled down the woman's cheek.

With that, the girl in the black dress slowly opened her eyes.

Mysterious eyes with a hint of red.

It was a particularly eye-catching feature, so some remembered her quickly.

"Ah! Princess Yeonhwa, her."

"Right, right. That's exactly it. Did she film an advertisement because she was popular on a variety show lately?"

The women said so and watched the advertisement.

As the woman in the black dress opened her eyes, brilliant colors spread out.

The eyes of the woman with a languid face gradually opened, and her neat black dress gradually dyed pure white, changing into something bright.

Flowers bloomed in the desolate space, and the girl slowly looked up at the sky.

A night sky filled with countless stars.

Starlight.

The woman looking at it also seemed to shine.

Her languid face was now wearing a bright smile.

A radiant smile like a flower blooming.

Under the starlight.

A woman shining under the dark night sky.

Her pure white skin stood out prominently.

She must have used filters, obviously.

Even with that thought, my eyes were inevitably drawn to her pure white skin.

With that phrase, the Eclat Etoile advertisement ended.

Like starlight.

That was the new catchphrase Eclat Etoile was pushing this time.

Even in women's communities dealing with cosmetics-related content, there was a recently talked-about cosmetic product.

It was absurd, but the post spread to various communities as humor, and out of nowhere, there were talks about what the brand was.

- That's Eclat Etoile

- How do you know

- My older sister uses it

- Is your sister pretty?

Eclat Etoile.

A brand that recently changed its advertising actress.

Ambitiously prepared 3 types of essence cream and 3 types of tone-up cream.

The collective name for those cosmetics was 'Starlight'.

- The ad came out really well

- Is she Princess Yeonhwa? Her skin is definitely really good

- It's all filters

- No but seriously, the sudden transition to being bright is really good

The direction of a girl who was like an achromatic color suddenly becoming radiant.

It felt like returning to the modern era from a black-and-white silent movie.

The sparkling skin stood out even more, matching the name 'Starlight'.

This led to an increase in Eclat Etoile's sales.

And, one more thing.

In a community completely unrelated to cosmetics, talk of Seo-yeon came up.

- They said actors are coming out to advertise on U-Surv this time

- What is U-Surv? Uninhabited Survival? What a shitty abbreviation

- If actors are coming out to advertise, it's going to be fucking boring

- Real skip

- Actors are so fucking scared of getting hurt that it's zero fun

- And apparently one of them is a high school girl

- Suddenly it got interesting

- The fact is that U-Surv is getting too soft

- Are you saying that seriously? Just thinking about them coming out and whining gives me a headache

The community where was mentioned.

Although there had been more talk about internet broadcasts recently, it was a community where discussions about variety shows took place.

was a popular show one way or another, so it was bound to come up.

It quickly became known that the cast of this broadcast was an actress appearing in the movie .

- Who is Joo Seo-yeon?

- They said she plays a part-time worker role

Moreover, the role of the actress who appeared in the advertisement was merely a 'convenience store part-timer'.

People talked about a supporting role, not even a main role, appearing on a variety show.

Some said it was a push using her recent popularity, but even so, she was just a supporting actress.

Above all, a female actress.

Since was a variety show enjoyed by watching guests struggling in harsh environments, most were dissatisfied with a young actress appearing on it.

- If she doesn't do anything, it'll all be edited out anyway, chill

- Even those few scenes are obviously just 'I wanna go home~~~~~', it's a relief if she just doesn't do anything

While the community was ablaze with talks about for hours.

The 'Papua New Guinea' episode of began.

***

, which began amidst such controversy.

The story begins from the perspective of a man who arrived on an uninhabited island in Papua New Guinea.

It was Park Jung-woo.

- Why is he coming out here?

- There was no mention of Park Jung-woo appearing???

Words spread in the community at Park Jung-woo's appearance.

To be fair, Park Jung-woo was not an actor without a name value.

He was also an advertising model for overseas luxury brands, and when asked who was the best among recent young actors?

He was the first person to be mentioned.

A man who succeeded after shaking off his father's shadow.

If it's acting, it's acting.

If it's looks, it's looks.

On top of that, his private life was clean.

Rather, because he had so little controversy, he was an actor with a somewhat stiff image stamped in the public's eye.

That Park Jung-woo, in of all variety shows?

No, why?

"Why am I here...."

As if representing the viewers' thoughts, Park Jung-woo muttered to himself.

Walking trudgingly alone on the uninhabited island, Park Jung-woo hid in the bushes a little later.

It was because the Uninhabited Survival team arrived late.

Then, as Park Jung-woo appeared, the people's shocked reactions came out.

And, in that gap, a female actress who opened her eyes a little wider.

Joo Seo-yeon.

- Ah, those two had a connection

- Are they a destined couple again?

- Seems like they were called together because their chemistry was good in the previous variety show?

When Park Jung-woo appeared, Seo-yeon was also naturally mentioned.

Putting the destined couple aside, it was because had recently become a huge topic.

As Park Jung-woo's appearance at that time became a huge topic on the internet, his appearance in could be understood to some extent.

- The production team probably knew it would be boring, so they just used connections to fill the spot

- Real smart

Until then, those were still ordinary reactions.

Just reactions like the production team is smart, or still, those two look good together~

But.

- What is she doing?

- She's trying to start a fire

The atmosphere changed as Seo-yeon suddenly stepped up to start a fire on her own.

Seo-yeon insisting on doing it herself when Park Jung-woo was going to do it.

Furthermore, when they did rock-paper-scissors and scissors crushed rock, people thought 'Park Jung-woo went easy on her', but

Crrrack!!

"."

The branch that split to pieces along the grain, and Seo-yeon looking down at her hand in disbelief.

- Why is the branch's durability like that?

- ? ㅋㅋ

From here, people slowly began to feel something was off.

No matter how dry the branch was, does it crumble that easily?

"Here you go."

At the scene of her poking the coconut with her finger and holding it out.

The viewers watching it made the same face as Jung-woo.

Jung-woo's face, alternating looking at the coconut and Joo Seo-yeon, was hard to describe.

- ??????

- I felt it since she was picking coconuts, but is that real?

- They say that's a coconut for women

- Do coconuts for women have a different shell?

- Make some sense

It seemed none of the cast noticed such a thing.

The only ones seeing this bizarre phenomenon were Park Jung-woo and the cameraman.

And the viewers.

"This is a spear."

"Ah, okay."

"I want to catch a fish."

Who knows when she made it, but Seo-yeon kept carrying around a wooden spear she had made herself.

A strong will was felt to catch a fish, or to catch a wild animal with that spear.

Controlling such a Seo-yeon was a tired-looking Park Jung-woo.

Feeling like he had practically become Seo-yeon's babysitter, things different from what was initially expected kept flowing out on the broadcast.

Once she was in a good mood, Seo-yeon was literally a wild horse.

Running wildly through the bushes.

"Hey!!! What are you doing climbing a tree!!"

"There's fruit here!!"

"No, you can't eat that!!!"

Even climbing trees.

"I wonder if there are any wild boars."

"If there are, we should run away."

"I think I would win."

"?"

Anyway, she was roaming the jungle like her own house.

- Something is definitely off

- Is this right?

- Everyone else looks exhausted, why is she alone so energetic? Isn't she resting when the camera's not around?

- Even with all that rest, I don't think anyone could move around like that

She looked like an excited Retriever.

Park Jung-woo following beside her was almost dying.

Furthermore, the fact that Seo-yeon, who was running here and there, was so full of energy was an even more terrifying point.

- The fact is that Joo Seo-yeon is getting healthier

- She can stop getting healthier now

And then came the mission.

"We have prepared a mission for dinner."

The one who brought that up was PD Shin Young-woo.

The main mission regularly held in Uninhabited Survival.

"We left a flag on the highest mountain on this uninhabited island."

In other words, a special dinner would be given to the first person to bring the flag.

It was roughly that kind of mission.

The set number of people was one.

The mountain wasn't that high, but just walking through the tropical night forest was bound to make one tired.

Park Jung-woo gave up early.

In Seo-yeon's case.

"Can I carry the camera?"

At Seo-yeon's words, the cameraman filming her panicked.

"Pardon?"

"I'm going to run, so I thought it might be hard for you."

No matter how overflowing with energy she was, could she run through a tropical forest?

'She might be able to.'

Both the viewers and the cameraman had that thought for a moment.

But the camera was also quite heavy.

He wondered if she could run while holding it, but thought it was a pointless worry.

"Umm, you can't do that, use this."

What the cameraman handed over was a small camera he had brought just in case.

Its size was a bit small, looking enough to film directly.

"Then I'll be going."

"Pardon?"

The mission had already started.

In particular, Park Hee-joon, a guest like Seo-yeon, had already departed first.

"Wai...!"

The moment he was about to ask, "Is it okay to go alone?", Seo-yeon had already disappeared.

- Can't see your face, you crazy bitch

- Did she bring the camera just to run with it?

Anyway, what would come out of Seo-yeon taking over the camera?

Considering that this was also edited footage, I wondered how lacking the filmed footage must have been for something like this to come out.

Naturally, the scenes of Seo-yeon running were mostly edited out, but occasionally a scene of bushes quickly passing by.

Or a running scene.

Only the rare glimpse of Seo-yeon's face running with a bright smile let us know it was her.

"Huh, Miss Seo-yeon. When did you get here?"

"I got here earlier."

The first to arrive was Seo-yeon.

The second to arrive was Park Hee-joon.

He was a bit late because he came with the cameraman, but he didn't expect Seo-yeon to arrive before him.

To be fair, Park Hee-joon was a former special forces member.

- If you don't know, memorize it: High school girl >= Special forces soldier

- This is absurd

- Is this really a survival show?

Anyway, with such a great performance in the mission, Seo-yeon had a delicious dinner.

And Seo-yeon's performance was similar in the 2nd episode of the Papua New Guinea edition aired the following week.

- But why doesn't her skin tan?

- Wasn't she running around constantly???

Viewers who were slowly adapting began to pay attention to other aspects.

Seo-yeon's white skin.

In fact, the cast must have been curious too, as they even asked this.

"Miss Seo-yeon. Wow, your skin didn't tan at all. What cosmetics do you use? Tell me too."

At the words of Bang Ha-yoon, the only other female cast member besides Seo-yeon, Seo-yeon had a pondering face for a moment.

As if thinking, should I say it or not. Such a face.

But thinking that directly mentioning the brand name wasn't good.

"I filmed an advertisement for it."

She just answered like that.

And, the impact began in earnest after ended.

The cosmetic that protected Seo-yeon's pure white skin even in extreme situations.

If it's the cosmetic Seo-yeon is currently advertising, there's only one.

A new skincare cosmetic newly launched by Eclat Etoile.

It was only natural that as soon as ended, an out-of-stock chaos occurred at all department stores and Eclat Etoile stores.

And at the same time.

It was the starting point of the rise of a new star in the advertising world.
