006. Is it already an issue?

On the subway heading home, Um Kang-seok was looking at his smartphone screen with a smile on his face, wondering what he liked so much.

“What are you looking at so well?”

Song Jae-Ik, who did not lose the sense of exhilaration from the DDP performance, looked at Um Kang-seok and bruised him, and Um Kang-seok pushed the screen he was watching.

“It’s already up.”

On the screen Um Kang-seok put out, there was a video of Song Jae-ik’s performance on Personalgram, and on the following screen, Song Jae-ik’s performance was uploaded on You Tube.

“yes? already?”

“Tsk. It’s weird that you don’t use social media. You only do things like lines.”

‘DDP small concert.’

‘DDP pianist.’

Videos with different hashtags and titles were posted on the Internet, and of course, it wasn’t a lot of views right away, but hundreds of people had already seen his videos.

It’s been less than an hour since I finished playing the piano at DDP, but the fact that my piano is already becoming a hot topic on the Internet is a really new feeling.

“You have to row when the water comes in. I need to edit and upload the video soon. By the way, are you going to do a real cooking video as well?”

At Um Kang-seok’s question, Song Jae-ik nodded as if it were natural. In the first place, the reason for doing You Tube was to leave a record of one’s various challenges rather than to make money by growing the channel.

“I’m saying this because I think it would be okay if I pushed it to the piano if it was this kind of interest. It feels like a street performer.”

“Hey, I’m not a piano major student, so what? And I have no intention of changing the purpose of the channel.”

Although he nodded at Song Jae-ik’s words, Um Kang-seok felt that Song Jae-ik’s performance was much better than those students.

I’m not an expert, I’m just a nerd, but most of the people who watch the piano performance videos on You Tube are also non-majors like me.

“Still, I think it would be better to mainly upload music-related videos for a while. Anyway, if you want to expand your channel, you have to cater to the tastes of the influx of people.”

At that, Song Jae-ik nodded as if he would.

It was important for me to challenge new things myself, but it was also important to see how far I could reach in fields I had previously challenged.

“Looking at it, the practice room only rents electronic pianos.”

“ah? okay? So, did you come to DDP to play that upright piano today?”

“Compassionateness? I think it’ll be okay to rent an electronic piano next time. If things don’t work out, you can go looking for a piano on the street again.”

In Um Kang-seok’s head, the thought of Youtube was still lingering.

‘Even if it’s not a great channel, you can hit small and medium-sized channels for sure. games, cooking. Is it a piano?’

I’ve only checked 3 so far. Since the game is such a red ocean, even if there is nothing special, it will definitely help fill the number of videos, and the piano proved it today.

Cooking is a variable, but the gochujang stew and mupa ramen I ate a while ago were really delicious.

“So when are you going to shoot ramen? I’m starving to death. You ate lunch and almost didn’t eat anything while filming the video.”

At that, Song Jae-ik smiled and headed to the mart near his house.

“now.”

“What now?”

“Are you very hungry?”

At that moment, Kang-Seok Um got a strong sense of something awkward from the smile he showed toward himself.

Growling-

“uh. It is, though.”

But right now, hunger took precedence over awkwardness, so I gave an affirmative answer.

“Hey, you crazy bastard! What and how much are you trying to feed!”

“He said he was hungry! We’re going to have a hearty ramen party.”

“If you eat this much, you will die, dude!”

It wasn’t long before he had to bitterly regret his answer.

It was because they bought nearly 10 types of cup ramen and bag ramen close to them by type, starting with food blocks that were made of blocks.

In addition, there are side ingredients that are sure to go into ramen.

“He said he was hungry. If two men ate, wouldn’t they be able to eat five ramen a day?”

“No, if you eat like that, people will die.”

“Don’t die. And this time, you will also be filming the video. After all, there are only two of them.”

At those words, Um Kang-seok sighed and blamed himself in the past.

It was such self-blame that I should have ordered and ate jjajangmyeon alone at home.

“So what are you going to do with this video? A recipe for ramen that even a self-employed student can easily follow?”

“It feels like that. To be exact, 23 ways to make bag ramen and cup ramen sold in the market more delicious.”

Exactly, the purpose of this video was not only the food I saw on Cooking You Tube, but the concept of applying that sense of cooking to new food was strong.

The topic of ramen, which anyone can easily access, was chosen because it was the most basic yet accessible food.

“23 things? You have to eat 23 ramen noodles?”

“There are roughly 23, I don’t know how many.”

“Now, the first one is Yukgaejang Ramen.”

Song Jae-ik said as he opened the package of his favorite cham ramen spicy flavor.

“I’ll give you something to live for.”

To Um Kang-seok, those words sounded more sinister than ever.

“Keuk-”

After the ramen meal, Um Kang-seok burped with the feeling that his stomach was full of ramen noodles and glared at the remains of ramen piled up in the garbage bag.

“The first round is over. I have to eat that much again tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Then, the first cooking video is complete.”

“We need to get out of here right now.”

Um Kang-seok tried to get up off the floor with his heavy body, but the warm floor and heavy stomach would never allow that action.

Besides, to be honest, I was full from overeating, honestly, because Song Jae-Ik’s cooking was definitely delicious.

It was definitely ramen, and even though it was not very different from the existing cooking method, it was because it had a different taste from the ramen I used to eat.

And Um Kang-seok, who had been sitting still for a while, spoke to Jae-ik Song as if he had finished thinking about something.

“Oh, my stomach is about to explode. But that’s what I felt while filming today. I think it’s right to invest a little more in the shooting environment. And a computer and an editing program.”

It was a decision made after serious consideration. If I was going to take it as a hobby like before, honestly, the current equipment would have been enough.

But it was filmed only once and half, but strangely, I felt that way.

‘I think he can do something.’

And I think it would be fun to do it together.

Not simply adding a line or two to my resume before getting a job, or doing it as a hobby, which I made up my mind a few days ago.

In addition, Song Jae-ik’s eyes and actions overflowing with confidence.

Um Kang-seok suddenly held out his hand.

“What? Shall we shake hands?”

Um Kang-seok tightly grabbed Song Jae-ik’s fist as a joke.

“We will do it together.”

“What nonsense. Did the ramen go bad?”

It wasn’t a light handshake, and seeing his friend hold his hand tightly like that, Song Jae-ik felt goose bumps and said in an annoyed tone.

“Anything. The challenge you mentioned, or whatever.”

Song Jae-ik, who wiped his freed hand on his pants, smiled as he raised his middle finger.

“You said it with your mouth. It’s a failed payment.”

The day after Uhm Kang-seok joined hands with Song Jae-ik, three edited piano pieces were uploaded at once.

As Song Jae-ik thought, the first category is musical instruments.

The ramen video was still being edited, so it was planned to be uploaded later, and the category was to be cooking.

“What are you going to do today?”

“Shouldn’t you buy a camera first? Anyway, video and audio will be important. What do you like to buy?”

As soon as the words were spoken, Um Kang-seok’s expression brightened and he continued to say words that he could not understand properly.

“There are many types. You just have to choose, personally I like the swivel display. Of course, the higher the video quality, the better. It’s like a product that everyone talks about when it comes to cameras. But even if it’s not like that, it’s okay.”

“Oh, yes. uh. right.”

“And just buying a camera isn’t enough. Of course, you have to buy a lens, but you can buy a lens later and now you only need one lens that can be used in all weathers. If you add a CPL filter or something to it, it removes light reflections on the glass. This is almost essential. And I need to buy a gimbal too. And if you’re going to play an instrument like you, audio quality is also important.”

Song Jae-ik had to listen to Um Kang-seok for a while, resenting himself for forgetting that Um Kang-seok was a great tech nerd.

Once his tech knowledge exploded, it really flowed endlessly.

“Shut up and put it in the shopping cart. I’m a fan of this tech. If it’s that good, then sell a separate tech category on the channel later.”

“Five! still okay? Great tech nutuber!”

As if he couldn’t stop it, Song Jae-ik shook his head and checked what he had to do today.

“Whatever. For now, at least for a few months, you can’t be happy. If you upload videos consistently for at least a few months, there will definitely be times when they bounce.”

After that, Um Kang-seok turned on his phone screen as usual and checked the comments on the video he uploaded yesterday.

“Hey, what is this?”

Eom Kang-seok, who was checking the comments, held out his phone screen with a surprised expression, and in the comment window, hundreds of comments posted in one day were spread out.

“What is this? This is my video?”

“uh. Doesn’t your cell phone vibrate?”

And my phone, which I checked later, was full of You Tube comment notifications.

“uh? I put it on silent and forgot about it.”

“what is this. Isn’t the reaction after three videos a joke?”

Song Jae-ik, who was reading the comments on his phone, smiled and took pictures of the comments with his hand.

“It seems like more controversy than popularity, right?”

“What?”

The first title of the piano video uploaded by Um Kang-seok was ‘Self-taught self-taught piano performance (Little Star Variation)’, and the second and third videos were no different, and were definitely titles that would attract aggro.

In the case of the title of such a video, Um Kang-seok obviously knew better than he did, and since we decided to do it together, it was a situation where Um Kang-seok was entrusted with everything related to YouTube management and uploading.

“Look at the comments. Especially the moonlight video.”

Moonlight received the most comments as befits the best piano song.

He deserved it, he digested the piano talent that took a long time right before he hit the moonlight, and after that, the digestion time for the piano song really slowed down to the point where it made no sense.

Shim Ji-eon, who is not a professional pianist, had no response enough to even give a bloated feeling to the ordinary street performance video.

It also meant that great progress had been made in the piano part.

Eom Kang-seok, who had appreciated the song, even said that he felt why the word “moonlight” was added to the song.

– Wow, that’s really good. A true self-taught skill?

– That’s why it’s so good even if you just listen to it through the phone speaker, but there are a lot of people who heard it directly there.

– I was there. It wasn’t really a joke. I liked the first and second, but the last Beethoven is really good. It’s not a joke, it actually caught the footsteps of passers-by.

– I saw it on Inbyeolgram! Wow, the full video is finally up!

– Is that a self-taught skill? Are you serious?

Of course, most of the comments were compliments. Even if it was filmed with a cell phone, the piano performance didn’t go anywhere.

– Excessive. Aren’t you manipulating to launch a rookie youtube?

– Confusing with only 3 piano videos.

– Well, I’m sure he hits it well, but he doesn’t seem to be able to suck it up like this?

– Just a normal person who learned the piano?

– You could have just dug that song.

– But what’s the name of the channel? Challenge Everything. It’s not an infinite challenge.

It’s about 7 to 3 of complimenting comments and manipulation, and it’s absolutely not a self-taught skill. A war of words was taking place, such as where and who to raise.

“Oh, good. great.”

And Um Kang-seok, who took a look at the entire comment response, had a satisfied expression.

It was because they started YouTube together, and the video was filmed and edited by themselves, so even though the video they uploaded had an aggro title, it didn’t contain lies.

“Look at this. There are already thousands of subscribers. That’s great.”

Having 1,000 subscribers on just a few videos was a big deal. There are many You Tube that stays with hundreds of subscribers for several years even after uploading dozens of videos.

“Next is the ramen video, right?”

At those words, Um Kang-seok sighed and nodded his head.

Even if he manages the channel, in the end, the content of the channel comes from Song Jae-ik, and it seemed like he was really intending to upload a lot of videos.

There was a lot of aggro on the piano like this, but cooking. It’s also a ramen video.

I’m sure those who are looking forward to the piano in the next video will want something like this.

“flaw. I don’t even know anymore But what are you looking at all the time?”

On the screen of Song Jae-ik’s phone, the songs of singers known for their good singing skills were playing continuously.

“Song?”

“Yeah, a song. After all, play the piano and play the guitar. After all, isn’t that busking?”

At those words, Um Kang-seok nodded. Because it wasn’t wrong.

And I was immediately drawn to the comments. It was the first time that a lot of comments were posted on a video he edited.

“Five. there’s something strange Even people who majored in piano came to the mound.”

Um Kang-seok began to read the comments of the most recent person who said he was a piano majoring student.

“Even from the point of view of majors, I hit ridiculously well. Moonlight is not an easy song even if it looks easy. It is certain that it is a performance comparable to that of a real major. Or are you a real major? This is because if Moonlight is literally played faithfully to the notes, it will become a dry performance.”

Um Kang-seok giggled as if he liked it and read the comment, but Song Jae-ik just shrugged.

“young. Serve some of your favorite tea. Make people feel ashamed.”

“What are you so surprised about? Chin Moonlight that day wasn’t the best I could hit. Maybe you can play better in the future?”

Obviously, the moonlight of that day was a performance of an absurd level.

But if someone asked if I had the confidence to play better than him, I could confidently say that I was confident to play better than him.

Of course, I don’t know how much more talent I’ll have to digest.

However, there is one thing Song Jae-ik can confirm.

It wasn’t just the piano.
