No matter how skilled he was at filming, pre-recorded broadcasts and live broadcasts were clearly different. If Imun was going through the same struggles that I experienced when starting on Twitch a few years ago, I thought I might be able to help him a bit.
First, let me finish my broadcast. After resolving to encourage him properly later via video call, I opened a search site.
“…Earlier, what was the name again? The broadcasting platform that Imun is using now?”
[10,000 won donation! AeLive AeLive!!]
When I entered the streaming site that Imun was using, videos of various idols unfolded before me. The structure allowed videos to play immediately with just a click, without requiring any membership registration.
‘Hyung, click on me!’
At the very top of the numerous thumbnails, Imun was tempting me with his familiar smile. Seeing the viewer count as unrivaled as his popularity, I gulped.
– Daetmun run away!!! Gangha is coming to crash your stream!!!!!!!ㅋㅋㅋ
– Stream crashingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Crashing a friend’s stream, what is this?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
“No, it’s not stream crashing! I’m just going to watch for a moment… I’m curious about something.”
I need to see how he does it to give advice! After finishing my plausible excuse internally, I clicked on the video, ignoring the viewers’ teasing.
Imun was traveling by car. His constantly smiling face was so sweet that one could mistake him for talking to a lover rather than fans.
[…I’m also sad that my activities are coming to an end soon. Oh, last week’s music show performance? Yes, that’s when Rai and Saha collided…]
It was definitely a contrast to when he talked with me, where he would equip cuteness as if it were a basic item. I tried to recall when I became accustomed to his aegyo, but there wasn’t really a specific turning point.
He used to be too busy acting aloof rather than showing aegyo. While reminiscing about old memories and being immersed in nostalgia for a moment, my fingers itched to tease him.
AeLive unfortunately didn’t seem to have a donation feature. I tried to type in the chat but quickly gave up.
[…Ah, I see. It must be hard with exam period now. But you should go study. Haha. Yes, I promise. I’ll keep broadcasting regularly, so don’t worry and go. I’ll come back tomorrow to talk with all of you.]
‘Don’t push yourself too hardㅠㅠㅠ’, ‘Thank you for broadcasting today too, Imun♡♡’ The AeLive chat was also quite different in atmosphere from my broadcast. If I thoughtlessly teased Imun, I might face the merciless hammer of his fans.
Above all, I was relieved that he didn’t seem as tired as I had worried. Just as I was moving my mouse to leave him filming a sweet romance movie with his fans and start my own broadcast—
[For dinner tonight, I’ll have a simple salad and… What?]
Imun stopped mid-sentence and made a strange expression. It was quite puzzling to see him lower the corners of his lips, which had been raised throughout the broadcast, and stare silently at the screen.
Wondering if something had happened, I moistened my dry lips when he gently narrowed his eyes.
[…Gangha, are you watching my broadcast right now?]
I reflexively checked the Twitch chat. Unless viewers had told him, there was no way for Imun to know that I was watching his broadcast.
‘He got caught, he got caughtㅋㅋㅋ’, ‘ㅋㅋㅋThe pigeon has finally flown to Imun!!’ My prediction seemed to be fairly accurate.
One of the viewers enjoying this situation to the fullest. There must certainly be a culprit. Hajun let out a big sigh and put on a solemn face.
“Everyone, I felt this when broadcasting with Imun before too… There seems to be a spy among you. I’d like you to turn yourself in quickly… and decide clearly whether you’re going to be my fan or Imun’s fan.”
It wasn’t the time to leisurely worry about Imun. I needed to track down the person who kept disloyally spreading my secret actions here and there.
Like a detective interrogating, I folded my arms and remained silent for a few minutes. Not long after, a viewer pitifully rang out a donation.
[3,000 won donation! Is there no option to be a fan of both? Sob sob]
“Hmm, that’s fine too. But, you can’t go around spreading messages. If you really feel you must… I’d like you to stand on my side and bring me information about Imun.”
[3,000 won donation! Then what do I get in return?]
“Wow! Do you really need to get something?”
[3,000 won donation! Yes ^_________^ Gangha, where in the world is anything free?ㅋㅋㅋ You’re so innocent]
Imun’s fans are blowing hearts while my fans! The chat’s quick change of attitude was enough to make the back of my head throb. Feeling newly wronged, I huffed before smoothly brushing my bangs.
My intuition whispered that if I played this card, there would be no more bargaining demands, one hundred percent.
“…I have a few screenshots I captured when video calling with Imun, how about that?”
[3,000 won donation! Omgㅋㅋㅋㅋvideo call capsㅋㅋㅋㅋturesㅋㅋㅋㅋ Deal!ㅋㅋㅋ]
“Good. Then, after first asking Imun when the broadcast ends… I’ll give them to you.”
After completing a satisfactory deal, I turned my attention back to AeLive. Unlike earlier when it was overflowing with hearts and love confessions, the chat was now filled with laughter from Imun’s fans.
Did Imun make a joke? Without hearing anything in particular, I was staring intently at the chat when a surprising message flashed by.
– Gangha just made a deal with a fan
– Gangha is watching the livestream again!ㅠ
It seemed the negotiation with the spy had been vividly relayed. “Hyung, you are watching the broadcast, right?” Imun’s face, playfully laughing as if he couldn’t hold back, proved this most clearly.
‘Seems like there’s more than one spyㅋㅋ’, ‘Just… give up…^^’ Listening to the donations from viewers who I couldn’t tell whether they were comforting or teasing me, I lowered my reddened face.
I want to disappear without a trace. I want to turn to dust and scatter away. While losing my mind while trying to avoid reality, I suddenly raised my head at Imun’s continued calling.
“Everyone, you’re going too far! In a broadcast full of Imun’s fans, to do this to me…!”
– We’ve been telling you all alongㅋㅋㅋ How focused on Imun must you have beenㅋㅋㅋ
– Gangha’s angryㅋㅋㅋㅋGangha’s angryㅋㅋㅋㅋGangha’s angryㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– We just wanted to see you get upset, hyung…(sniffs)
“Second spy, confess and find enlightenment.” Hajun calmed down his excitement and showed a merciful smile. Come on, anyone, come out quickly! While grinning sweetly like tempting an innocent child and grinding his teeth, Imun’s laughter burst from the speakers.
[Gangha, you took screenshots while video, pfft, video calling with me? When?]
“Wow, now really, I’m not watching AeLive anymore!”
My vision spun with embarrassment beyond measure. “Wait, I’m going to cool down for a bit!” The viewers burst into laughter in the chat as they watched Hajun hurriedly leave the room.

Grateful that Imun did AeLive today too… Moon_fan
I can see our Imun getting more comfortable with livestreaming, and this grandma is tearing upㅠㅠ
At first, he reallyㅋㅋㅋㅋ had so little to say that I thought my speakers were brokenㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Now he’s even better than Saha or Suraㅠㅠ Is there anything Imunie can’t do?ㅠㅠ
Especially today seems like one of the best livestreams so farㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
Am I the only one who felt fluttery seeing Imun chuckling?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
For Haneulie fans who couldn’t watch today, at least see this (winks)

└ Excuse me…? Mother… you shouldn’t do this here;;;;ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
└ Wowㅋㅋ Why is Imun smiling so prettily today? What exactly happened?ㅋㅋ
└ Gangha came to watch Imun during the livestreamㅋㅋ Imun burst into laughter seeing thatㅋㅋ
└ Imun sometimes browses the community, so let’s use the word “pretty” elsewhere ㅠㅠ Imun might get angry againㅠㅠ
– I’m glad he keeps doing livestreams, but I’m a bit worriedㅠㅠ I hope no incidents happenㅠㅠ
└ Look at Imun’s usual behaviorㅋㅋ He’s the kind of person who couldn’t cause incidents even if he triedㅋㅋ Don’t worry in advance and just enjoy the content, Haneul!ㅋㅋ
