Cheat day

Inferiority complex

“Enjoy the show and see you tomorrow.” Half-hearted.

“Banha.”

After finishing the broadcast, I leaned back in the chair.

“You prepared a lot today.”

Baek Woo-jin smiles confidently with a triumphant look on his face.

“Just you wait.” I’ll win everything from now on.

“Do well.”

What is it? “Why are you so relaxed even though you lost?”

“You might lose once or twice.” It’s only 16 wins and 3 losses, though.

Baek Woo-jin trembled.

“I hit him 16 times, but he should at least hit me back 3 times to create some tension in the debate.” Isn’t that right?

“Are you saying I deliberately lost?”

“It’s not necessarily the case.”

Baek Woo-jin, who was extremely angry, made a grimace.

No matter how much I tease him, he never gets tired of it.

“Anyway, I’m sorry for today.”

Originally, after the discussion ends, we would eat together while monitoring the progress, but something came up.

“Don’t worry about it.” I had a prior engagement, so I went to eat.

“Then that’s a relief.”

“But what kind of appointment is there at this hour?”

“Oh, I was supposed to have a meal with the PD.” Taking a walk too.

Baek Woo-jin paused for a moment.

I tilted my head in confusion, and he furrowed his brow deeply.

“At this hour?” Rice? “Walk?”

“Uh. From now on, we agreed to do that often.

Baek Woo-jin squinted his eyes and watched me, then let out a low groan.

“Why?”

“Hyung, seriously don’t do that.”

“What are you talking about?”

What office workers hate the most is meeting their boss after work hours. What’s the difference between a company that invites you to go hiking on the weekend?

“No.” I’m doing it because I like it.

I felt a presence and turned around to see Muk-ji standing there.

“Right?” PD-nim.

When I asked to clear up Baek Woo-jin’s misunderstanding, Mukeunji was taken aback.

“Hyung, you really have no sense at all.” How can you say you don’t like it to my face?

I’m worried because I wonder if it was really uncomfortable.

I treat him casually, but from Mukji’s perspective, he might not feel completely comfortable since he’s still my boss.

“Really?”

I asked the aged kimchi.

“No.” “I don’t dislike it.”

See? You said you didn’t mind.

“So, how can you say you don’t like it when I’m listening?”

I saw the aged kimchi at the same time as Baek Woo-jin.

“It’s okay.” If you ask if I get hurt, that’s not the case, but I’m not the kind of person who would disadvantage the PD over such things. You trust me, right?

The aged kimchi nodded.

“Really?” Are you doing it because you like it too, Eunji?

Baek Woo-jin insists on pressing the issue, and he nods repeatedly.

“봐. Our PD is so capable. Good things are good. I don’t like what I don’t like. He’s someone who speaks directly.

“That’s amazing.” Our employees seem to dislike it when we suggest doing something on the weekend.

“What did you say we should do?”

“Book discussion.”

It seems this guy thinks that the very act of reading a book and having a conversation about it can’t possibly be rejected.

The only problem is meeting on the weekend; they don’t think the book discussion is wrong at all.

“Because everyone is different.”

Baek Woo-jin grumbled as he left the office.

“Let’s clock out too.”

“Yes.”

Please provide the text you would like me to translate.

“Usually, the goal is to gain about 0.5 kg to 1 kg per week.” At first, it’s important to eat something like porridge three times a day regularly to recover the digestive system, and then eat a balanced diet.

I was so happy to hear that Muk-ji decided to get healthy, so I gathered various pieces of information.

Since I had suffered from anorexia for a long time, there were many things I had to be careful about.

“Carbohydrates, fats, and proteins are important too, but they say a deficiency in vitamins or minerals is the most dangerous.” So, please make sure to eat this.

I took out the multivitamins, calcium, and vitamin D that I had ordered in advance.

“This is.”

“But suddenly eating a lot isn’t good for you.” They say that refeeding syndrome occurs when calories are rapidly absorbed, causing abnormalities in water and electrolyte metabolism. I don’t know exactly what it is, but anyway, it’s really dangerous, so let’s just focus on getting our eating patterns right for now.

I laughed at the old man who was staring at me intently while holding the supplement in his hand.

“You’ve done a lot of research.”

“It’s about the PD.” What is it?

Thank you.

The aged kimchi bowed its head and avoided eye contact while expressing gratitude.

“Dead.”

Just in time, the food I ordered has arrived.

In fact, the porridge is digested too well, so it’s not good for dieting.

However, on the contrary, for the aged kimchi whose digestive organs had been out of function for a long time, it was just right, so dinner was porridge all week.

“I feel bad that you couldn’t eat properly because of me.”

After eating 죽 a few times, the aged kimchi started talking nonsense.

What do you mean? Try eating only brown rice every day. “Even making excuses like this, how wonderful it is to eat white rice.”

Mukbangji smiled slightly.

“When I was at Hongdangmu, I never even thought about it.”

I lifted my head, wondering what was being said.

“I lacked confidence in my appearance and had a rather gloomy personality, so I kept my distance from others.”

“…….”

“I thought that even if I laughed at him inwardly, I would treat him outwardly as a colleague from the same company.” “Maybe it was because I didn’t want to get hurt.”

“…….”

“At the time, I tried hard to pretend I didn’t know, but looking back, it was inferiority.”

The reason I couldn’t readily offer comfort is because I understand Mukji’s feelings all too well.

Because of the wound.

I was so concerned about the gaze of others that avoiding going out and keeping my distance from people actually made me feel more at ease.

If such a situation lasts for a long time, you get used to it and learn how to be alone in your own way.

Sometimes, the waves of loneliness that wash over me make me feel as if I am left alone in the world.

Then, like the sand on a white beach that gradually disappears, the heart is worn away without anyone noticing.

“I know a little bit too.”

The aged kimchi has risen.

“I understand that feeling a little.”

I am neither a counselor nor a doctor. I don’t know what to say.

I just want to let you know that the feelings that Mukji is experiencing are not hers alone.

If I can shake off the feeling of being left alone in the world, that would be enough.

Mukbangji smiled slightly.

“There was a person named Kim Seo-jin on the same team.”

“I know.” I heard PD-nim quit and came to see you.

“Ah.”

The aged kimchi nodded as if recalling old times.

I heard that Kim Seo-jin came and talked about various things.

“He was a bit annoying, but.”

“Ugh.”

Mukbangji’s eyes widened.

“No.” I felt the same way too. Keep going.”

Mukbangji laughed once again.

He was tall, slim, and handsome, and above all, the team members followed him well. Even though we joined the company around the same time, he became the go-to person and gained everyone’s trust.

I thought he was a rude and sly person, but it seems he actually got along well with others.

“Deep down, I was a bit envious of him.” Since I got along well with everyone without any rough edges, I thought I should at least do my job better.

“PD did much better.”

Mugunji let out a small sigh.

“I thought so, but in the end, I believed that person’s words.” Both the team members and the team leader.

“Was the reason for the red face because of that person?”

It seems like something about me didn’t sit well with you. They brought up something incomprehensible and pressured me with the whole team. I couldn’t bring myself to bow down and give in, so I quit.

“Why are there people like that?”

“I was also upset at first, but in the end, it turned out well.”

“Yes?”

The aged kimchi looked at me and smiled slightly, then took a spoonful of the rice.

Please provide the text you would like to have translated.

└Do you believe this? Why do they even volunteer? LOL They just want to score some corporate sponsorship and they packaged it up so well. LOL

└Whoever planned it, today’s Baekban Debate is so boring. It used to be fun, but it seems like they brought in the wrong planner.

Is this really worth a million views? Chan-yong, please change the planner. The old videos were more fun.

└Am I the only one who doesn’t want to see the side dishes? Cha Ji-chan provides the building, Ju Ji-seung cooks, Baek Woo-jin brings in the goods and manages sales, but what does Ban Chan-yong do? I’ve always found it disgusting when you use a straw, but now you’re doing it openly.

Damn it, can’t this pig bastard just not show up?

“……Hmm?”

At some point, the number of comments that felt malicious increased.

I looked through the videos and found that different accounts are leaving negative comments on several videos.

When the number of subscribers increases, according to the law of conservation of idiots, the number of negative comments also increases proportionally.

If it suddenly increased over the past few days, it seems like something went wrong.

Just in case, I went through various community sites and searched for keywords related to me, such as Side dish store, banchan gage, for side dishes, banchan yong, for side dish use, chan yong, etc.

“It’s the same as usual.”

There are no articles that have become a big topic.

Ordinarily, the impressions of how this video turned out or evaluations of my belly fat and thigh muscles were the main focus.

If I make a mistake and get criticized for it, that’s natural, but it’s just puzzling how suddenly so many people are leaving negative comments.

Moreover, the strange thing is that even the planner is cursing.

When a new editor comes in and the editing is done differently from the existing style, there are bound to be people who occasionally point out the editing style.

It’s the first time I’ve seen someone criticize a planner.

Knock-knock-

I heard a knock and answered, and Muk-ji came in.

He looked at my monitor, nodded slightly, and handed over the file folder.

“What is this?”

“Recently, I found out that negative comments have been increasing at the side dish store.”

Ah. I thought it was strange too, but was there a problematic video?

I opened the file folder that Mugunji gave me.

I have organized the malicious comments, the nicknames of those who posted them, and the times they were posted.

“Are you planning to sue?”

“Google is not very cooperative with investigations, so even if you file a lawsuit, the process could be difficult.”

“Then why this?”

“It is possible to specify to some extent.”

The aged kimchi has arrived.

“If you click on the nickname or profile picture of the person who left a negative comment, you can see their ID.”

“Right?”

“I filtered out 50 malicious commenters and checked their IDs, and among them, there were IDs showing similar patterns.”

“Yes?”

@rwop1811 @rwop1813

@rwop1814 @rwop1815

@aw1re2sd3 @aw2re3sd4

@aw4re5sd6 @aw5re6sd7

As Mukkunji said, there are several IDs with only some numbers changed.

“Looks like those idle guys are making alt accounts and spamming.”

“He’s not a guy who has nothing to do.”

I was puzzled, so I turned my head and was startled to see Mukunji’s face right in front of me.

In a hurry, Mini Mukunji leans back and looks strange.

“Why are you doing this?”

“No.” No. What do you mean?

“As a result of continuous monitoring, all these comments were posted between 10 AM and 5 PM.”

“Why is that?”

It seemed like the aged kimchi was trying to calm its mind, taking a long breath before speaking.

“It’s not the time for someone with nothing to do to be awake.”

“And?”

“They don’t even participate regularly.”

“……again?”

“This is the typical working hours of a company.”

“Are you seriously talking about manipulating comments or something?”

“That’s right.”
