People think that Jaehyuk is a YouTuber who plays games that usually stays up late and wakes up late. However, what they didn't know is that Jaehyuk starts his mornings early, unlike most people. He eaten a simple breakfast of cereal and fruit, puts on a light knit sweater and jeans, then heads out of the house. He goes down to the underground parking lot and gets into his all-black SUV.
Fans speculated that since he is good at games, he might drive a low, sporty car in bold colors. However, Jaehyuk, who holds strange beliefs like "men need to exercise," insisted on driving a large SUV that could accommodate more than just his size, with the concept that "SUVs are the way to go."
The black SUV is reached the stop 15 minutes away from its owner house and parked on a lower floor of a modern high-rise building with a vast area and mostly glass façade. This is where Jaehyuk's one-man company is located. Although Jaehyuk is the only streamer, there are seven staff members taking care of him, so the office still needed a certain size.
While the building was easily accessible and spacious, it seemed grandiose for a company with only seven employees. New employees that joining the company initially thought they would only use half of one floor of this grand building. But to their surprise, Jaehyuk's company was the only one in the entire building. More precisely, the building itself belonged entirely to Jaehyuk's company.
One might think it's too extravagant for a small company with just seven employees to monopolize such a large building that could accommodate over ten startup companies. But since the building owner chose to lease solely to Jaehyuk's company, no one could say anything about the arrangement. After all, the building owner was Jaehyuk's father.
While streaming or out and about, Jaehyuk typically just wear hoodies, eschewing flashy brands. Yet, with his low-key style, he still resembles the overlooked scion of a prominent wealthy family.
He was enjoying his father's care by having the entire spacious building to himself, although he was oblivious to the extent of his father's generosity. In fact, he did not even recognize it as generosity. By simply paying a monthly rent of 1 million won to his father, he simply just thought that the building was so big, without a care in the world. Even if his father got upset and decided to rent the space to other companies, Jaehyuk would likely interpret it as a savvy move into real estate ventures. With a nonchalant demeanor and thought, he would casually relocate the company's possessions.
Jaehyuk finished parking hastily and made his way to the building's entrance. Several employees who were enjoying coffee at the lobby mini café hurried over, forming a circle around Jaehyuk and enthusiastically congratulating him on his trending topic about the game he played with Song Eungyu.
Among them, the happiest was Shinshik, who was in charge of Jaehyuk's schedule.
He excitedly mentioned that their subscriber count had increased a lot in just one day, sticking close to Jaehyuk's side and praising him like a top idol without hesitation.
Shinshik was Jaehyuk's personal manager during his professional gaming days. Jaehyuk initially rejected the idea, stating he wasn't a celebrity and didn't need a manager. However, he eventually relented due to his father's plea to take on a manager without having to pay by himself. Over time, Jaehyuk grew to trust Shinshik's professionalism, and now he has brought him on board as a permanent part of his team.
Officially, Jaehyuk held no specific position in the company, feeling awkward being called titles like CEO Ha Jaehyuk or President Ha Jaehyuk. Thus, he simply added " * (nim)" to his title, so that everyone referred to him as "Jaehyuk-nim." This rule applied to everyone, so even team leaders or managers had their titles only on business cards, while everyone in the company addressed each other comfortably using their names followed by " (nim)."
