【We have the first Vice Chairman of Changseong Electronics in South Korea here!】

I edited the footage featuring my older brother and uploaded it to YouTube, and that video went absolutely viral.
In some ways, it created a bigger ripple than the hotel buffet scandal I previously uploaded with my wife.
I mean, we brought in a figure like the Vice Chairman of Changseong Electronics, one of the top conglomerates in our country, so how could it not attract attention?
Especially since the video itself was incredibly well-made; even I, who was in the broadcast, found myself glued to the editing version for almost 30 minutes without even realizing time passing by.
– This is seriously content only the owner can pull off, haha.
ㄴ What YouTuber manages to get the Vice Chairman of Changseong Electronics? No way, haha.
ㄴ I thought the thumbnail was Photoshopped, haha.
– The craziest part of this video is that the Vice Chairman didn’t just appear because the owner asked him to; he came of his own accord…
ㄴ This is wild, lmao.
ㄴ I bet the biggest shock was probably for the owner when the Vice Chairman said he would appear…
ㄴ ??? : You mean my older brother wants to appear? Why?
– Is it okay for a billionaire among the top five in the country to be this down-to-earth?
ㄴ I feel like I’ve seen a surprisingly relatable side, and I loved it so much, haha.
ㄴ He really snacked seriously, too, haha.
ㄴ The Vice Chairman said it’s his favorite snack.
– At first, he felt like someone from another world, but the more I watched, the more relatable he became, haha.
ㄴ Me too! Especially when he talked about his favorite games; he and I are really similar, which made me feel connected.
ㄴ And when I asked when he plays games, he casually said he has a gaming console installed in his car and plays while on the go—I thought, man, we really live in different worlds, haha.
ㄴ He’s busy, but he finds a way to play, haha.
– Day 1 of praying for the Chairman to appear again.
ㄴ Hahaha.
ㄴ If he appears again, the broadcast will blow up, good or bad, haha.
ㄴ I want to shout “enough with the nonsense,” but seeing the Vice Chairman here makes me wonder what’s impossible.
ㄴ Seriously, can you just come out once?
– The owner logged losses of one each to his wife and brother-in-law and certified the gaming incompetence.
ㄴ Did that just get called a flaw?
ㄴ But honestly, the Vice Chairman and my wife were really good at the game, haha.
ㄴ For real, haha; honestly, the owner isn’t bad at gaming, but those two were surprisingly great.
ㄴ Watching the Vice Chairman use combos makes me think he’s just not experienced yet but he’ll level up quickly.
– I honestly didn’t expect much from the owner’s collaborations, but it was genuinely super fun, haha.
ㄴ The flow was clean, and his speaking skills made the collaboration even better, for real.
ㄴ I hope the owner collaborates more often… though it seems like he doesn’t like it much.
ㄴ He’s living with family, so it must be tough to do it often… unless he can do them online.
ㄴ I agree; just watching the rare collaborations gets the hype up so much, haha.
Just looking at the reactions in the comments of the video had everyone ecstatic.
Many people said they enjoyed the unexpectedly down-to-earth side the Chairman showed, and some were demanding him to appear again.
And apparently, there were viewers in the comments requesting collaborations with me, who seemed hopeful that more opportunities like this would arise.
I honestly don’t know if that’s possible, but if it makes the viewers happy, it’s something to keep in mind. After all, a streamer creates content to give joy to their audience.
“Ultimately, I’ve been archived… my disgrace being showcased to the world on YouTube….”
“…….”
Well, before I spiral into that thought, I should comfort my dear Mrs. here who’s been sulking beside me.
My wife crashed into the broadcast at the end and dragged my older brother out, so it seems she’s dealing with some mental backlash from being seen that way.
I did get her permission beforehand, but no matter how aware she was, the shock of seeing it compared to just knowing is significant.
“Hey, honey. How about we go to that Brunch Café nearby for a coffee since it’s been a while?”
“Uh-huh….”
And so, with my downcast wife, we made our way to the newly opened brunch café near our house with the kids.
Fortunately, it seemed that the delicious food quickly lifted her spirits.

From that day onward, I can say things shifted slightly.
For about half a year after that, we changed the direction of our YouTube channel a little—not so much changed, rather added some flavor and produced various videos.
We kept the main content, like songs and games, but started adding parenting videos, vlogs, and other leisurely daily life content.
Thanks to that, I had to hire two more editors and worked them quite hard, but strangely, maybe due to the raises, the employees even asked me to work them harder, blurring the lines between sincere and joking.
It became quite a revelation, solidifying one of my wife’s famous quotes: “If you can’t buy loyalty with money, then question if you really have enough.”
Anyway, in the early days when we shifted the channel’s direction, the subscriber count slightly dipped. It’s natural for people to feel resistant when the channel they liked changes its colors a bit.
However, after just a month, that worry faded as the stagnant subscriber count began to rise rapidly, growing by about 200,000 within six months.
Of course, when YouTube was on a steep rise, it had jumped by 400,000 in just six months, so one might think “What’s so impressive about 200,000?” but that’s just one-sided thinking.
Most major corporate YouTube channels find it difficult to grow past a certain level unless something significant happens.
In other words, this means the changes we made to our channel worked successfully as that “special occasion.”
Still, I’ve maintained the belief I’ve held since having kids: “I don’t want to use my children for content.” So, apart from everyday moments, I don’t intentionally stage their play for videos.
Yet, the fact that many people still enjoy it feels a bit surreal.
Especially our eldest daughter, Joo-ha, garnering immense love; she’s even been receiving proposals for modeling in children’s magazines often lately.
It’s probably because she resembles her mother, as her sheer cuteness draws compliments. When I meet other parents from her kindergarten, they suggest looking into child acting for her.
The problem is, as for the little princess herself,
“Dad! Did bunny friends visit kindergarten today?”
“Really?”
“Yeah! I fed them carrots, and they ate a lot!”
She seems to be reluctant to part from my side, climbing onto my thigh once more and excitedly recounting her heroic tales from kindergarten today.
Well, whatever her career path may be, I just hope she chooses something she loves.
“Dad, does Gyuri want to play too?”
“Sure, does our Gyuri want to play with Daddy? But your sister came first; what should we do?”
“Uwee…”
As I was playing with Joo-ha, another princess made her appearance. Perhaps feeling her spot had been taken, she quickly sulked.
“Joo-ha, how about letting your sister sit here just for a bit?”
Seeing the scene made me feel a twinge of pity, so I tried to gently ask the elder sister if she could give up her seat for a moment.
“Ah, no! I can’t let Gyuri have this spot!”
My big sister, ever vigilant not to give up this specific space, dramatically turned her head away, refusing vehemently.
Thus, a battle of the princesses began.
“Eww… Poo-on…”
Meanwhile, the only man in our household was over on the side memorizing English words.
I couldn’t help but wonder whether a kid who hasn’t started kindergarten yet could do such a thing. Still, it seemed his unusual language skills were thanks to Yoo-chan’s advanced development.
Once he started speaking, he began memorizing simple letters like A, B, C and has now reached the level of learning a few English words.
What was I even doing at that age? Suddenly, I felt a wave of self-doubt.
“Ha-ha, I got caught by two bunnies, huh?”
As I glanced over at Yoo-chan quietly cracking open his English vocabulary book, I was still playing with the princesses when I heard a familiar voice from behind.
Turning my head, I saw my wife approaching with a tray holding a coffee cup. Since we had just finished lunch, she must have brought me some after-meal coffee.
“True! Ah, thanks for the coffee, honey.”
“Don’t mention it.”
As my wife placed the coffee on the table, she naturally snuggled up right next to me. At this rate, it’s not just two bunnies; it feels more like a fox and two bunnies have got me snared.
“By the way, why does Gyuri look so upset?”
“Oh, it seems she felt left out because Joo-ha didn’t move from my lap.”
“Really? Why didn’t she just say something to me?”
Hmm? Does she have a good solution?
With a confidently assertive tone, my wife suddenly sprang up from her seat and grabbed Joo-ha by the waist.
“Alright, Joo-ha, how about you get up for a moment?”
“Noo…! This is my seat!”
“Did Mama say to give up the seat? Hurry now.”
“Uwee…”
She forcibly removed Joo-ha, who was struggling not to stand up. For a moment, I worried she was being overly forceful to make room for Gyuri…
Thud.
“…What?”
What in the world? She plopped right down in the spot she took from Joo-ha and immediately motioned to both Joo-ha and Gyuri.
“Alright, now you two can sit on top of Mama.”
“Yay! I want to do that!”
“Me too!”
Rather unexpectedly, the three-girl stack seemed to resonate with them, and they nodded happily without any complaints.
Hey, hey, kids! This really isn’t fun for Daddy, you know? My thighs are starting to cramp now…
“Ah!? Wow! I want to join too!”
Thud!
“Ugh!”
As I twisted and turned trying to escape, Yoo-chan then made a flying tackle, and I was left groaning in pain.
I can’t shake the feeling that the struggles of being a husband in society feel quite different in our family dynamic.
Kiss.
“Hang in there, honey.”
“…I have to keep trying.”
In the midst of my gradual struggle, I realized my wife had noticed my fatigue and turned to me, giving me a cute little encouraging kiss, filling me with newfound strength.
Yeah, as the head of the family, I really must hang in there. For sure.
