‘Skill streams.’?Sang-Hyeon didn’t know, but a market for them existed. Actually, there were more skilled streamers than bad ones.
“Bubblegum.”
The streamer he enjoyed watching just notoriously sucked at games.
‘Huh, so Bubblegum’s broadcasts were for people who didn’t play games.’
Sang-Hyeon discovered that the algorithm recommended him these videos because he didn’t play games either. Most who watched skill streams were avid gamers who wanted to improve their own skills.
‘I can’t believe they’re studying just to play games.’
Sang-Hyeon realized he’d been looking down on gamers. This world was just like sports. You had to hone your skills and others would judge you based on that. Almost nothing happened because of luck. They competed with skill versus skill. A true battle and competition!
“This is nice,” Sang-Hyeon ymuttered as he sipped some water.
He admired such a lifestyle from a young age. Fairly competing with ability alone and rising step by step while improving yourself.
However, society functioned opposite to these rules. Luck determined around 30% of everything and human relations held more significance than competence. Even Sang-Hyeon had been a nepo hire.
One’s administrative ability might not even be considered after taking a look at their school alumni and regional connections. The real world preferred good looks over being good at work. In short, society had too many variables.
“Let’s do it.”
Sang-Hyeon thought he could do well in this world of gamers.
***
Two days passed after Sang-Hyeon’s resignation.
“Have you gone mad!” A colleague shouted at him inside the company cafe.
Kim Ju-Hyeok was the only colleague at work Sang-Hyeon could confide in.
Ju-Hyeok lived the opposite of Sang-Hyeon’s life. He grew up in an affluent household, went to a prestigious college, obtained a degree from a well-known graduate school in the United States, and found a job at a famous corporation. He was an elite of the elites.
“You think I’m crazy?”
Sang-Hyeon thought about reconsidering if Ju-Hyeok opposed it so much.
“Y-You think you’re sane?”
“Why not? I’m really good.”
“You said you’ve never played games before.”
“Yeah.”
“Ha.”
Ju-Hyeok tried to make the most dumbfounded expression he could.
“You idiot! So you’re going to use the money you’ve been saving for your apartment deposit and buy a capsule?”
He spoke so loud that the nearby employees looked at them.
“I… also have that severance pay, okay? Lower your voice.”
“How much severance pay could a fired section chief get?”
“I was fired because of restructuring, so it’s a bit different.”
“Haa.”
Ju-Hyeok grabbed his own head out of frustration.
Sang-Hyeon spoke a bit roughly, but he was brighter than most who graduated from nice colleges.
