Episode 404 – Vlog Commentary (5)
Metagamer headquarters.
It was after work hours for most people, but the lights were still on in the influencer team's conference room.
“Can I leave this outside?”
“Oh, leave it. I’ll clean it up!”
Shin Hye-rim quickly snatched the bag from the guest. She was none other than Decibel.
“But I’m the one who got what I deserved…”
“Hey, since you came all the way here, I should at least do this much for you.”
The two were working together on a special feature article, "Can You See That?" Decibel visited the company headquarters for an interview.
“Thanks to you, I think the article will be good. Thank you again!”
"Oh, no, no. I'm honored that you interviewed me. Thanks to you, I think viewers will get to know me a little better as Jonggems."
Decibel grabbed Shin Hye-rim's hand with shining eyes.
“Knight, please take good care of me.”
"Of course! I'll send you the draft as soon as I finish it. Please check it and if there are no problems, it will be uploaded soon."
Shin Hye-rim smiled and tried to see her off. But Decibel's pace soon slowed.
"Oh, Purple-nim, you're broadcasting? It's already this late!"
Because the office was dark, Shin Hye-rim's seat stood out. She had logged into Lee Kyung-bok's channel in advance, so the broadcast was already on.
And then, both of their eyes widened at the same time.
“PPL?”
“Are you talking about advertising?”
I was just curious about the story about the main character of PPL, but after that, it was different.
"Unofficial speedrun #1!? Again?!"
“Wow… Purple, you’re good at classic games too.”
As new records were revealed one after another, the two couldn't hide their surprise. Shin Hye-rim's reaction was especially striking.
'It's a scoop!'
Her eyes rolled rapidly.
Let's take a moment to compare the special features of Decibel with their importance.
It didn't take long for her to make a decision.
“Th, over there, Mr. Decibel…?”
"yes?"
“Excuse me… but can I delay the drafting for a bit?”
Shin Hye-rim spoke with a desperate expression. She felt sorry for Decibel, but Lee Kyung-bok's news was a higher priority.
Decibel, who was looking at her with great tension, quickly nodded.
“Yes, yes! Of course.”
“News like this should be uploaded quickly… Yes?”
Shin Hye-rim, who was preparing her excuse, opened her eyes wide. Decibel smiled at her.
“Oh, of course! You can publish the special feature article anytime, but you should publish this one first!”
“Mr. Decibel…!”
Shin Hye-rim felt relieved and bowed deeply.
"Thank you for understanding! I'll get this sorted out right away and finish the special feature article!"
“Oh, Mr. Shin? Can I ask you a favor?”
"yes?"
“If it’s not bothering you, would it be okay if I watch from the side?”
She blinked at Decibel's request. Was she going to watch him write the article?
But soon Shin Hye-rim followed her gaze and understood the situation.
'Ah, Purple-nim plays rhythm games!'
Lee Kyung-bok was moving around, saying he wanted to enjoy a rhythm game. This was a scene Decibel couldn't miss.
It was clear that he had asked for a favor so that he wouldn't miss even a single shot on the way back.
“Oh, of course! Sit in the chair next to me, no, mine. I’ll sit here!”
“Oh, thank you.”
The two sat down comfortably and focused on the broadcast. Shin Hye-rim quickly began organizing the article, while Decibel joined the chat on his mobile phone.
'Oh, I'm really looking forward to it.'
What will Lee Kyung-bok do next in offline, arcade rhythm games? As a rhythm game craftsman and enthusiast, she shines brightly.
"…uh?"
I just left him a chat once and things changed.
Decibel! Long time no see!
Lee Kyung-bok caught every single line of that conversation without missing a beat. Shin Hye-rim immediately turned her attention to his comment.
“Oh my! Isn’t this a combined pavilion?”
It wasn't just her thoughts alone.
[-Deha!]
[-immediately. match. room]
[-Ah lol If you got caught coming in secretly, log in quickly!]
[-I can't stand the comments of the game master!]
[-Denunna, come quickly!]
The chat window also urged her to log in. Shin Hye-rim quickly explained to him.
"Our company uses shared capsules, right? They're really clean because they're shared!"

She wanted to actively help Decibel as much as he understood her situation.
But surprisingly, Decibel looked uneasy. She quickly typed a message.
[Huh ㅠㅠㅠㅠ I'm outside ㅠㅠㅠ]
[If you invite me next time, I will definitely go!]
Oh, you're outside. What a shame.
Shin Hye-rim's jaw dropped at her refusal.
“No, why…”
Other people are anxious because they can't merge with Lee Kyung-bok, so how can you turn down this great opportunity?
Moreover, she is aiming to become a comprehensive game streamer, so joining forces with Lee Kyung-bok was literally a stroke of luck.
“I know it’s a really good opportunity.”
Decibel noticed the question and smiled awkwardly.
“I can’t interfere with the content that Purple has prepared.”
“Are you bothering me?”
“Yes. Even if I suddenly show up as a guest, Purple-nim, given her personality, would take really good care of me.”
Lee Kyung-bok's personality became apparent while receiving coaching. In fact, because of this, he was so self-conscious that he couldn't comfortably handle the replay content.
“You gave me a separate chat, so I’m satisfied with that.”
Shin Hye-rim also smiled back at Decibel's smile.
'There are really only good people around Purple.'
She could see why Lee Kyung-bok was so willing to teach her decibels.
* * *
Lee Kyung-bok rolled his eyes at Decibel's answer and then clapped his hands.
"Thank you for watching the broadcast despite your busy schedule. Let's try again later."
He enlarged Decibel's chat window a little more with a smile.
"I don't know much about League of Legends, do I? If I say anything strange in the video, please let me know."
-Comment outsourcing lol
-That's black company behavior lol
-The boss who exploits his craftsmen!?
-So it was Jang O-jang?
-Denunna, hurry up and dome Hwangcha!
While Lee Kyung-bok was laughing at the viewers' teasing, Decibel's answer came back.
-Decibel: Yes! Leave it to me!
“Thank you. Then I’ll finish watching the video!”
Lee Kyung-bok played the video again. He selected DJ PRO's most difficult difficulty, "INSANE," and several songs were listed.
"Oh, I can read the English course, but I don't understand the explanation. What is this?"
[(Globe) Ah, this is a function that recommends other songs that go well with the song you selected.]
[(Camera) It feels like a Rigame Omakase?]
[(Robot) Don't get in there for no reason. There's audio coming in.]
[(Camera) No, I'm editing it, right?]
While everyone was laughing at the subtitles of the two friends bickering, Decibel's eyes widened.
-Decibel : ??????
-Decibel: Did you choose the Pilgrim Course knowing that?
In the video, Lee Kyung-bok was looking at several courses and chose the one at the bottom.
"Oh, I chose this because it seemed the most difficult. The other courses were quite different."
-Consistency ㅁㅊㄷㅁㅊㅇ
-What the heckㅋㅋㅋㅋ They're all INSANEㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-You're saying that you're going to do Insane songs in a row?
-No lol, just expand your options a bit!
-King Ban-in: There's nothing to do (because it's difficult) / Godple: There's nothing to do (because it's easy)
-Anyway, there's not much, right?
To the laughter of the viewers, Lee Kyung-bok responded as if he felt wronged.
“No, honestly, even Decibel would have been shocked by this, right?”
-Decibel: Well, that's true;;
-Decibel: I took it step by step!
-Decibel: Purple, this is your first time… (Gemalcon)
The absurdity of decibels was evident in the text.
-Denunna's angry Gemalcon lol
-Even the craftsman is ridiculous lol
-Step by step (one step)
-???: By the way, my sergeant jump is 1 meter
-Ah haha anyway, it's a step hahaha
She added while the viewers laughed at her.
-Decibel: Besides, playing in a capsule is completely different from playing offline!
-Decibel: Everyone! This is more tiring than you think?!
Oh, what is this?
Even as she complained, the video continued. As Lee Kyung-bok pressed start, an AR hologram began to project.
Beyond the device, a meadow and people wearing robes appeared.
-Yeah? Okay okay?
-It's better than you thought, right?
-Are those people pilgrims?
-WA! New civilization!
-Oh my gosh lol this came out before the capsule lol
-I should have gone to the arcade sometime lol
-Ah haha I thought you only never been to an arcade hahaha
-omg!
-You go out (it's true)
Soon, pilgrims walking along the pilgrimage route began to collapse, one by one. The leader at the very front turned to them and fumbled with something.
“I really didn’t think of that either.”
<Ah, this is me.>
Lee Kyung-bok spoke with a smile. What the leader pulled out was none other than the DJ PRO control panel.
Soon, the leader's hologram overlapped with Lee Kyung-bok's and the intro began to play.
-Ah haha this is like a background video from an old league game
-The background is that the actual gamers can't even see it lol
-I'm busy taking notes!
-Really lol Only the people watching enjoy it
Despite the circumstances, the music itself was quite upbeat. Decibel briefly explained the song to him.
-Decibel: 'Wake up' is a fast-paced Latin pop song.
-Decibel: BPM between 200 and 300?
“Oh, when it comes to Latin pop, there was that famous person… Anyway, that’s the feeling.”
As Lee Kyung-bok responded, the chat window quickly followed suit.
-If it's Latin, it's raining?
-That guy is a rapper lol
-If it's Latin pop, then it's obviously Mickey Latin, right?
-???: Living La Vida Loca!
-F*ck, when was Mickey Latin? LOL
-But that song is really fun lol
-Oh, it's pouring!
After the intro ended, the real play began. Holographic notes began to fly before Lee Kyung-bok's eyes like machine guns.
But he nodded slightly and began to press the keys.
-Decibel: Wow…
-Kya hahaha, as expected, Imari is a god player
-Aren't there any foreigners who thought they couldn't do it offline?
-Ah haha, if you're Korean, you'll all know haha
-Here too, he just hits perfection lol
-Look at the combo number going up lol
The notes disappeared, along with the perfect phrase. Lee Kyung-bok watched, then opened his mouth.
“Oh, but the arcade has another interesting system.”
At those words, question marks filled the chat window. Soon, viewers sensed the change.
As the combo started to build up, the pilgrims who had been lying down in the background started to rise one by one.
“I thought it was originally staged, but I noticed it changed depending on the number of combos.”
-to?
-No;;; In the meantime, you were watching the background video?
-This pattern recognition is a habit, a habit!
-Shouldn't we focus on the note pattern instead of this pattern? LOL
-???: Are you done?
-That's right lol
-Decibel: DJ PRO's hologram video reaction changes depending on the score.
-Decibel: This is also a motivation for re-gamers haha
The explanation was that the hologram image played changed depending on the score. Soon, viewers were able to experience it firsthand.
"What are these people? Weren't they just lying there?"
As the perfect combo continued, the pilgrims who had been lying down regained their energy as if nothing had happened and even started dancing.
-Doomchit doomchit!
-Oh lol, so you were a nylon patient?
-No lol why did you fall down and then start dancing lol
-(Robotcon)(Robotcon)(Robotcon)
-(Fluorescent cone)(Fluorescent cone)(Fluorescent cone)
-((
-))
-???: The holy place I was looking for was here^^
-Directing lol It's so funny lol
-This is the pilgrims dance club lol
-You danced well so you got more praisesㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Accordingly, the chat window also became filled with various fluorescent emoticons and robots, just like a festival atmosphere.
While everyone was having fun, the song ended before we knew it.
[PERFECT PLAY!]
When you achieve perfect combos, fireworks explode and a phrase appears.
-What is Godple certification? LOL
-My name is stuffed ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Purple turned purple (it's true)
-DJ PRO: So, it turns out it was a really fun game?
-But if we do it, it's retirement right away lol
-The pilgrims will never be able to get up lol
Viewers were delighted, but Decibel was more realistic.
-Decibel: But this is a hand release in the Pilgrim course
-Decibel: It's difficult, but the turntable notes don't come out, so the next part is the real deal!
This time, the song used only five keys.
The viewers were dumbfounded by her explanation, but Lee Kyung-bok nodded.
"Ah, as expected from Decibel. Your assessment is spot-on. I waited for the turntable to turn, but it never did."
<Oh, these people are starting again.>
As the first song ended, a background video played. The pilgrims, refreshed, set out again, but along the way, the ground suddenly began to split apart.
And through that gap, vicious demons began to emerge.
"What's also interesting is that the course has a brief storyline in the background video. That made it easy to focus."
<Is there something like a battle here?>
The pilgrims, startled by the demons' appearance, retreated. But the leader, instead, stepped forward and pulled out DJ PRO again.
As the demons bared their teeth, high-pitched guitar sounds were laid out as an intro, heightening the tension.
-Decibel: It's a song called 'Hell's Coming'!
-Decibel: The rock 'n' roll genre alone boasts over 2,000 notes! And this time, turntable notes are also included!
The song began as Decibel quickly explained the situation. Lee Kyung-bok responded calmly to the torrent of notes.
-???: Unwavering comfort
-What kind of performance bed is this? LOL
-Just break it like a god?
-Oh! The turntable is out!
-Will Godple's hands not get tangled?
-Are you sure you want to get tangled? LOL
A situation where you have to press 5 keys while also turning the turntable.
Viewers were focused on how Lee Kyung-bok would handle it.
And soon everyone was shocked.
-Decibel : ????????????
-One-handed play?
-No haha …
-I pressed 5 keys with one hand lol
-You really did it? LOL
-INSANE was actually describing Godple?
-Look at the hook lol
Since there were 5 keys and 1 turntable, a total of 6 notes to handle, most people would handle 3 notes with each hand.
However, Lee Kyung-bok played the five keys with one hand and leisurely turned the turntable with the other.
“Oh, isn’t this how it’s supposed to be done? I heard some noise around here.”
Lee Kyung-bok was bewildered by that reaction.
[(Note) Huh? Huh? Who is this guy?]
[(Note) Isn't that amazing!? I've never seen two-handed play like this!]
[(Note) Are that person's fingers okay?]
[(Note) Ugh… My fingers are about to cramp just looking at it]
The reactions of the surrounding players were translated into subtitles. Lee Kyung-bok asked, seemingly aggrieved.
“No, isn’t this more comfortable… Can you do this, Decibel?”
-Decibel: I can do it…
It was at this moment that Lee Gyeong-bok was about to be delighted by the reply that came back.
-Decibel: But I don't think it can be done outside of a capsule.
-Decibel: If I do it offline, I don't think I'll be able to play the game for a few days;;;
Lee Kyung-bok coughed in embarrassment at her subsequent response.
"Ahem. Well, everyone can enjoy the game however they like. There's no such thing as good or bad."
-Denunna! Betraying expectations!
-I thought Godple would understand since we're both craftsmen, but he's a total idiot ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Huh? Only my brother is comfortable!
-But if you do this, you can play the first song with one hand, right? LOL
-Godful fingers > Both hands
-What? Excessive self-consciousness?
-Can you do something like a fingernail?
-I don't accept negotiations^^
As the viewers laughed at the situation, the background video began to change again.
The demons that had been growling like beasts began to gradually shake their heads in rhythm.
-Oh my gosh lol what is this lol
-You seem to have lost your temper after seeing Godple?
-Devil: One-handed play? Eek! This monster!
-Satan: Ha, poisonous, poisonous!
-??? : Did you hear Purple!?
-Music is the only medicine that the country allows, after all, lol
As the score accumulated, the demons became more docile. Some even took out their guitars and played along.
When the song finally ended, both the devil and the pilgrims cheered, raising their index, ring, and thumb fingers.
[(Note) Huh? Huh? Isn't this the Pilgrim Course?]
[(Note) Hey hey, is this real? Consecutive perfect plays?]
[(Note) I've never seen such a production before!]
[(Note) Surely it won't end perfectly until the very end?]
More and more gamers' eyes were drawn to him. One of them seemed about to film, but Jo Daehan immediately stopped him.
[(Globe) Sorry, I'm filming right now]
[(note) Oh, excuse me!]
[(Note) Hey… Is that someone famous?]
[(Note) I wanted to upload a tweet, but it's too bad]
[(Note) Hey, hey, be careful. If you get involved with a broadcaster, you'll be in big trouble legally…!]
[(Note) Ah, then I'll put it all in my head!]
Lee Kyung-bok smiled at the subtitle.
"Thanks to you, I was able to focus comfortably on the game. However, I was a little worried that some people might be concerned about filming."
Some of the players who had been watching Lee Kyung-bok while stopping their play gave up on the game altogether.
'I thought it would be okay for now…'
I wondered if it was because of the filming, but at the time I didn't find anything strange.
-Decibel: Ah! This is really good!
-Decibel: It's a kind of tribute among the leaguers!
“Respect?”
Decibel's words caused both him and the viewers to widen their eyes. Additional explanations were provided by the replay viewers in the chatroom.
-Hyung! DJ PRO's projection range changes depending on the number of machines being played!
-This is because I want to see Godple play, so I'll give it to you. LOL
-You can think of it as a similar feeling to shining a spotlight on the stage.
“Ah, so that’s what it was.”
Lee Kyung-bok clapped his hands as if he understood. Meanwhile, other viewers questioned the words, but soon they too understood as the third song began.
-Oh? The video suddenly expanded!
-Ah haha, is this how you wear an AR device?
-This is a bit of a strange system lol
-Kya hahaha, let's secure our territory
-It's not wrong to say that it's my territory because it's Japan, lol
Finally, the pilgrims arrived at the Holy Land, and the images were projected. But wasn't it the case that other DJ PRO machines were also linked and projected?
Thanks to this, Lee Kyung-bok's background video was projected throughout the DJ PRO area.
[(Golden Hands) Wow… I want to stuff this too.]
[(Pistol) It's definitely an impressive scene]
[(Camera) Wow, the visuals are crazy]
Angels descended and lined up in a hall filled with light. Led by their leader, the pilgrims began to advance, one step at a time.
Soon, the leader and Lee Kyung-bok overlapped again.
-It's a very holy atmosphere, isn't it?
-Wow ㅋㅋ The atmosphere is no joke since the area has expanded ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-As expected of a discerning gamer, you figured out the identity of Godple?
-What the hell lol I didn't even know about PPL
-No lol you can tell just by looking lol
Viewers gasped at the sight of him engulfed in light.
The image of angels surrounding him as if they were escorting him and pilgrims following behind kneeling and bowing.
And at the center of it all is Lee Kyung-bok.
-The God of League, Advent!
-I got caught haha (I have no intention of hiding it)
-Was it really that obvious?
He looked like a god.
