Eungyu's name reached the 1st of the real-time search rankings. If he had done the Vlive alone, it would have been inconceivable. The group CURV, to which Eungyu belongs, may often appear in the real-time search rankings top, but this was the first time Eungyu had taken the top spot alone.
Eungyu is popular within CURV, but unlike other members, he lacks witty remarks and acting skills. He hasn't appeared on variety shows or acted in dramas, so he was a hidden gem, relatively unknown to the public. He was like an indie band that only a few enthusiasts knew about.
So, back then, when Eungyu rose to the top of the real-time search rankings alone, it was a 6th place, and that was because during the year-end music festival, ordinary people who were struck by his part in "When You're Lost" searched his name in SNS as "CURV member who got lost," causing the spike.
Therefore, Eungyu was quite impressive, being able to hit the top spot in real-time search rankings with the help of the popular pro gamer YouTuber who has 3 million subscribers.
However, Eungyu couldn't fully enjoy the situation, as he was currently huddled in a corner of the waiting room at the music video filming site, anxiously being scanned by the eyes of the group of people in front of him...
"Even the best-laid plans go awry... How could our hyung, who was a total greenhorn in games... managed to play together with that pro hyung... even they did it ten times in duo..."
"Is that person really that awesome...?"
"Why are you even asking? Jaehyuk hyung is like an idol of idols. Just having a game noob like you mixing with Jaehyuk is an honor itself. I had played games with Ha Jaehyuk, have you ever?' It's the kind of flexing that will come up in gatherings for a long, long time. As oustanding as Jaehyuk is as a top pro gamer."
"You mean 'outstanding'...?"
"어쩌라고."
"Whatever."
The man who was crazily praising Ha Jaehyuk like that was Chanhee, the youngest member who lent his computer to Eungyu yesterday.
As soon as Chanhee learned that Jaehyuk and Eungyu were playing games together, he sent a frantic message to Eungyu, saying, "Please mention me at least". Chanhee was famous among fans for enjoying various games, including LoL and PUBG. It was natural for him to admire the emperor of these two games, Ha Jaehyuk.
However, Eungyu was so absorbed in playing PUBG with Jaehyuk that he didn't check his phone until after the broadcast ended. Thanks to that, when they met at the schedule for CURV's comeback music video this morning, Chanhee gave Eungyu a good little beating with his huge hand.
With a height of 189cm, Chanhee's massive frame made Eungyu look like he was the younger one when they stood side by side. However, Eungyu was actually three years older than Chanhee and the leader of the hyung line*.
*TL/N: like maknae line (younger people in the group), there are also hyung line which filled with older people in the group.
There were a total of three in the hyung-line, including Eungyu, and they were extremely lenient and spoilt with their younger member. They always gave in and comforted their younger members when they couldn't hold back laughter or were upset about something.
So, Eungyu quietly let Chanhee unleash his frustration until it was resolved. Of course, after that, he pretended to be in pain, crouching in the corner and slightly bending his arms around his back.
Come to think of it, last night, before going to bed after the game, Eungyu looked for Jaehyuk in the search bar and was truly taken aback. He honestly thought that person was just a typical streamer, but when he saw Jaehyuk's picture, who was as handsome as Ma Hyunwoo, the visual of the group, he was astonished. He even searched his YouTube channel several times, thinking, 'Is this person really a gamer?'
