01x05 - Proof

[bunniefuu]

Here is the ranking

for the first game of Round 3.

I had faith in my idea.

I was worried our photo would flop.

I honestly think our photo

is the best one in terms of quality.

Here is the result

of the eye-tracking data

collected from the 100 evaluators.

In first place

are MyBoo and Jang Keun-suk.

1ST: MYBOO, JANG KEUN-SUK

136 SECONDS, 22.5%

Finally, I'm first!

You almost couldn't see our photo

due to all the green dots.

I felt such a thrill.

We succeeded in grabbing their attention.

My sense of achievement was strong.

Your text idea worked! It's amazing!

Jang Keun-suk's idea to add text worked.

I've never added text to my photos.

This really taught me

to think outside the box.

You can't help but read

the text on Jang Keun-suk

and MyBoo's photo.

I think it was a great strategy.

It's amazing how Jang Keun-suk

saw the clickbait thumbnails

of the previous round

and realized he should

try something similar in this round.

2ND: JIN YONG-JIN, PYO EUN-JI

113 SECONDS, 18.7%

We're second!

-We're second!

-I told you.

I told you it would work.

"Is this why he's so famous?"

That's what I thought.

My perspective of him changed,

and I came to trust him.

We're third.

3RD: OKING, JANG JI-SOU

104 SECONDS, 17.2%

Our goal was to survive the first game

and see what the other teams do.

In that sense, it was successful.

4TH: JUICE SEYEON, JUNWOO

69 SECONDS, 11.4%

5TH: PANIBOTTLE, BBOGUMI

67 SECONDS, 11.1%

We survived for now,

but we definitely needed

to do better next time.

I wasn't satisfied with the result.

Here are the candidates for elimination

from the first game of Round 3.

KEJIMIN, RISABAE

DAEDO, DOHWADORE

It looked better in my head.

Our first game could be our last one.

I was anxious.

The team that is eliminated

for not capturing enough attention is

DaeDo and Dohwadore.

We only survived by one second.

One second?

6TH: KEJIMIN, RISABAE, 58 SECONDS, 9.6%

7TH: DAEDO, DOHWADORE, 57 SECONDS, 9.4%

-Good job.

-I guess this is it.

It's such a shame.

It was entirely my fault.

I had the wrong approach.

It would have been better

to keep things as simple as possible

to captivate the people's attention.

But I completely forgot

about that principle

and tried to be unnecessarily creative,

which was the cause of our downfall.

Why did I try to be too creative?

I'm happy I made it this far.

I gained a new understanding

of what an influencer is.

And maybe someday,

I could get closer to that world.

The worth of the eliminated team

will be transferred

to the team in first place.

ROUND 3 FEED PHOTO CHALLENGE

2ND GAME

Already?

You will be given 30 minutes

in the second game.

A new room, Set 8, will be available.

The second game begins now.

-Let's go to the new set.

-Right. We should too.

Let's visit Set 8.

-What's this?

-It's a storage room.

8: STORAGE ROOM

We could use the props here.

It's filled with props.

-This is a nice set.

-My goodness.

There was a new set,

but we didn't even bother to take a look.

Let's go to Set 2.

Our goal was to submit our photo quickly

and take over spot number five.

Let's make this quick.

What should I do? Lie down?

-Do the knee dance.

-Okay.

What do you think?

This is option number one.

All right.

Let's do some quick edits.

The text has to stand out.

Jang Keun-suk and MyBoo's photo

in the first game

gave us some ideas.

We were inspired

to also add text to our photo.

That's a good way to get attention.

We should try something like that.

It reminded me of the ads

you often see on Instagram.

This one's good.

"YouTuber with two million subscribers

reveals earnings."

Then, "More on the bottom right."

Then people will look at the bottom right,

where we'll have some more

text for them to read

to increase their time spent on our photo.

"YouTuber with two million subscribers

reveals earnings."

-We almost got eliminated just now.

-Exactly.

We don't need to look good.

-That's true.

-That's not what matters.

Let's bait people.

How?

We were in fifth place.

Sure, we survived,

but our strategy completely failed.

That's when I realized

that we just had to draw attention

in any way possible.

I wondered if we should

try to be provocative.

I have two ideas.

What are they?

We could take a photo of us

almost about to kiss.

BBOGUMI's idea involved kissing,

but I doubted anyone would care

if we kissed or not.

I wasn't sure of her idea.

So I told her my idea.

-First, we take a weird photo.

-Okay.

Then we bait people by writing,

"This photo is scary once you get it."

-Then they'll look at it for longer.

-That's good.

We're baiting them.

It was a mixture of our ideas.

BBOGUMI's idea of us kissing

and my idea of making people

wonder why the photo is scary.

The plan is to bait people through text.

We should also add text to our photo

but make it small so people spend time

trying to read the text.

Once I saw Jang Keun-suk use text

to captivate people's attention,

I knew the other teams

would all copy what he did.

So I needed to take that up a level.

Can you reveal your age?

Eun-ji was born in 1989.

It's crazy how young

she looks for her age.

It may be hard to believe,

but she's older than I am.

How is that possible?

So I thought we could use that.

-Will you do it?

-Reveal my age?

We'll definitely survive with that.

I've never revealed my age to the public.

I actually wanted to try a different set

and take pretty pictures,

but I decided to trust him.

First, we'll take a photo of you

in your usual style

and add your birth year,

but we'll make it hard to read

so people spend more time on the photo.

-Okay.

-Then at the top,

we'll write, "Guess how old she is."

People will think you look young

and wonder about your age.

That's what I was thinking.

The second game will be a battle of texts

between all of us.

I knew that would happen.

I already knew it.

So I figured using the same strategy

would make me a lame influencer.

I bet everyone will use texts

in the next game.

Most will.

In that case,

we would stand out by not using it.

I have a very provocative and simple idea.

We just zoom in on one eye.

An eye?

The eye would basically

be staring back at the evaluators.

I wanted a photo

that could pack a strong punch,

so I thought of a photo

of an eye with no text.

OKING already did something similar,

so the evaluators might end up

shifting their attention elsewhere.

Rehashing an idea was not it.

There's nothing like bare skin

to draw attention.

In the first game,

Pyo Eun-ji was alone in her photo.

I felt that taking a photo of my body

would ensure survival.

I wasn't really sure it would work.

We should go with

a photo of my figure this time.

All right.

Then a photo of your figure

for the second game?

-Sure.

-Okay.

It'll literally just be my body.

Shouldn't you show a bit of your face too?

I was thinking maybe not.

Wouldn't it be better?

Your face could draw attention

and make people look at

the rest of the photo.

Try taking several.

We'll choose one of them.

I actually wanted

to take the photo for her

or even be in the photo too.

I prefer doing most things alone.

I'm rarely satisfied

with other people's work.

OKING and Jang Ji-sou

have submitted their photo.

We're sticking to our g*ns.

Okay.

-Number five.

-Five, please.

That spot is ours.

Let's brainstorm our next one.

Let's choose on the way.

-This one?

-Yes.

MyBoo and Jang Keun-suk

-That's fast. They got the hang of it.

-have submitted their photo.

Number four, please.

-How did it go?

-I don't know.

MYBOO

JANG KEUN-SUK

Could you stand right here in the center?

Our second plan

was to take a photo of RISABAE.

I realized after the first game

that I'm not it.

We decided to go all in on RISABAE

and use her fame and popularity in Korea.

-Is it a close-up?

-Yeah.

That's perfect.

You look good.

Open your arms more.

The quality of the photo

really mattered to me.

I wanted at least one photo in the game

to be all about quality

and not just about being provocative.

We're all about quality!

This one looks better.

Yeah, I like this one.

They're not as good as I want them to be.

This one's nice.

Come on, the kissing idea is the best!

Forget everything else. Just do it.

-Don't spit at me!

-Sorry.

I'm so sorry.

That was hydrating.

Just take a bunch.

Come on. Get closer.

Look at me.

We need to think.

Are there any photos

that could go well with,

"This photo is scary once you get it"?

This one.

Add the text on that one, and we're done.

It needs to be more provocative.

I'll unzip a bit more

and lower my bra slightly.

How's this?

Isn't this more risqué?

I wanted one photo

with a lot of skin showing.

Come over here.

-I'll pose like this.

-I'll stand behind you.

-You go on this side.

-Like this?

-Like this?

-Yes. Like this.

I felt that we could

shock people into looking at it.

How should I hold your tail?

You could hold my tail or just hug me.

-I look so awkward.

-Junwoo.

-That's too much hugging.

-Then what?

Maybe like this.

I'll hold your arm.

-Like this?

-And fix your expression.

I'll just do this.

I thought it'd be good

if I lowered my face

and gave off a pervert vibe.

Look. What do you think?

-Is it good without my face?

-Yeah, you look like a real pervert.

-So creepy. Now send me the photo.

-Yeah?

Send it to me.

-This looks really nice.

-Yes.

This is good.

I look so damn creepy.

All right, that's good.

Let's go.

You're great at this.

I'm good at taking pretty photos.

The number is too visible.

Your finger should cover the number nine,

so people have to look closer.

-Like this?

-Yes.

Yes, that's good.

My ideas and your beauty

make for a good combination.

I like this one.

I think I covered the number too much.

It's fine.

We need people to sort of see it,

but only if they look closely.

-Right?

-What should we write?

"Guess how old she is."

Turn it a bit diagonally

and make the text bold.

There's a lot to see in this photo.

-That's good.

-Is it?

This is a masterpiece.

Right?

Are you sure about this?

Yes, this is what I do for a living.

Making thumbnails is second nature to me.

I know how to captivate

people's attention.

We're getting first place.

The second game is now over.

This is crazy.

We will now reveal the feed

for the second game.

Please.

Oh my, those breasts

I can't possibly beat those.

Those are too intense.

How many photos of breasts are there?

Oh my goodness.

ROUND 3, 2ND GAME

MYBOO, JANG KEUN-SUK

Her face isn't even showing.

No one can beat that.

My goodness, that's too much.

It was so shocking

that she didn't even show her face.

I wonder what they were thinking

when they took it.

All I could see was MyBoo's photo.

How am I supposed to beat that?

Think about the dopamine rush

that would bring.

Even I would look at her photo first.

I was confident that my photo

would captivate everyone's attention.

ROUND 3, 2ND GAME

OKING, JANG JI-SOU

YOUTUBER WITH 2 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS

REVEALS EARNINGS (SEE BOTTOM RIGHT)

ROUND 3, 2ND GAME

PANIBOTTLE, BBOGUMI

THIS PHOTO IS SCARY ONCE YOU GET I

That photo's scary by itself.

It's already scary.

I like the scary text.

I liked PaniBottle's photo.

He tried to draw attention

by making people curious,

causing them to stay on the photo.

ROUND 3, 2ND GAME

KEJIMIN, RISABAE

-They take great photos.

-I agree.

-How did they take this?

-I'm so jealous.

-Oh no.

-I have a bad feeling.

I didn't expose my breasts.

What matters is that you did your best.

Thank you.

An influencer must always

try their best.

My nerves are k*lling me.

Juice Seyeon just looked so pretty.

Our photo was the prettiest and cutest.

Your face will get us through.

I'm sure my little ladies and gentlemen

looked at my photo.

-Please.

-Please.

I'm going to get eliminated

because of PaniBottle.

-Are you serious?

-You kept insisting

on writing that weird text.

We should've just kissed.

Maybe you just want to kiss me.

Don't spout such nonsense.

Don't worry, I'll kiss you later.

Here is the result

of the eye-tracking data

collected from the 100 evaluators.

Please.

You can't tell by that yet.

PaniBottle and BBOGUMI's photo

is full of dots.

Ours is pretty dense.

Here is the ranking

for the second game of Round 3.

I don't know what to expect.

I'm confident.

I can guarantee we'll get first.

Please.

1ST: PANIBOTTLE, BBOGUMI

140 SECONDS, 22.5%

Having captivated the 100 evaluators,

PaniBottle and BBOGUMI are in first place.

See?

-We're first!

-I told you.

I told you the text would work.

And you said we'd get eliminated.

We're first!

I was so thrilled

to get first with a photo of my face

after beating out

all the photos of breasts.

2ND: OKING, JANG JI-SOU

129 SECONDS, 20.7%

3RD: KEJIMIN, RISABAE

102 SECONDS, 16.4%

People looked at that for 102 seconds?

Awesome.

I was happy that enough people

recognized our efforts.

4TH: JUICE SEYEON, JUNWOO

93 SECONDS, 15%

That scared me for a second.

And the team that failed to captivate

the evaluators' attention and placed last

It was impossible to predict.

I thought we had it in the bag,

so I was shocked.

Jang Keun-suk and MyBoo got first

with their first photo.

We're first!

So it was unexpected.

I think our second photo

might have been too similar to our first.

I thought the evaluators

might have found it boring,

so I was feeling anxious.

The team that is eliminated

for not capturing enough attention is

MyBoo and Jang Keun-suk.

-Oh my goodness.

-How?

Did I celebrate too much?

5TH: JIN YONG-JIN, PYO EUN-JI

83 SECONDS, 13.3%

We were so close to going home!

6TH: MYBOO, JANG KEUN-SUK, ELIMINATED

75 SECONDS, 12.1%

How did they get eliminated

with that photo?

I don't understand.

I think it was too obvious

what they were trying to do.

What? MyBoo got eliminated.

No more showing skin.

We were in last place.

I still had a lot to show.

First of all,

I felt really sorry to Jang Keun-suk

because we got eliminated

trying out my idea for the photo.

I think I should have pushed a bit harder

and tried to convince MyBoo more.

If I had asked her to trust me

for the sake of the team,

maybe the result could've been different,

or maybe not.

Nevertheless, she wanted to see

her idea come to life,

so it was my duty as a teammate

not to intrude upon her creativity.

Bye, everyone.

-Unbelievable.

-Goodbye.

Is this for real?

-Good work.

-How did that finish last?

I can't believe this.

The total worth of MyBoo and Jang Keun-suk

will be divided and transferred

to the first-place finishers,

PaniBottle and BBOGUMI.

She has more than 80 million won!

-Oh my goodness!

-Is it in?

Thank you for the money.

Was it too much skin?

I guess it was too much.

Maybe there wasn't enough to the photo.

-How much do I have?

-About 68 million.

Yes!

-How much do I have?

-You have 79.41 million.

You have the most.

I was proud of myself.

I think I led our team to win.

Having an enormous amount of money

I could only dream of

showing right on my collar

made me so happy.

You're good at this. You're a genius.

-I told you.

-My goodness.

Now you trust him?

-He's made countless thumbnails.

-Exactly.

That's true.

Thanks for everything.

I had a great time.

I did my best, so I have no regrets.

That's all that matters.

-Good job.

-You did great.

-Good job.

-You too.

-This is sad.

-Stay strong.

I have no regrets.

I gave my all in every round.

And when else would I have a chance

to meet such huge influencers of Korea?

I learned so much

and got to get a glimpse

into the different worlds

of so many content creators.

It was a new experience for me.

My time here definitely encouraged me

to dream of becoming a mega influencer.

The third game of Round 3 begins now.

A new room, Set 9, will be available.

9: PAINT ROOM

Let's get started.

-Should we do it here?

-Sure.

-We're done.

-We're really going to go with just this?

-Yeah.

-Okay.

My cute little Ttaenggu.

This is my dog, Ttaenggu.

All right.

I knew I'd need Ttaenggu.

Hey, there.

Ttaenggu was alone at home,

so I decided to bring him here.

But what do you know? He can help me.

For the next game

We could use my dog.

We're the only ones with a dog.

You're right.

Wait.

What happens if I do this?

Awesome. Come here, Ttaenggu.

Stay.

-What are you going for?

-This looks good.

What does?

Are you sure about this?

Let's have Ttaenggu here

and make it look like Ttaenggu

has two tails or two mouths in the photo.

-What?

-What do you think?

How?

What about a photo of me

taking a photo of Ttaenggu?

And they'll see some skin

if they look closely?

Yes, a bit.

I don't think the photo

should be sexy at all.

As most teams tried to go

for sex appeal in the second game,

I agreed with Yong-jin

to tone down the sexiness.

But I still thought it would be risky

to take it all out.

I wanted to try something different,

an idea or concept

that people have never seen before.

Being cunning and being smart

are two different things,

but Pyo Eun-ji seemed to insist on

taking a photo with Ttaenggu.

I kept wondering

if that was the right decision.

I'm so confused right now.

What do we do, Ttaenggu?

-What should we do?

-Here, Ttaenggu.

What if I stay in the background?

You go front and center,

and I'll be behind you

with this facial expression

-like a brother annoyed at his sister.

-I like it.

Then we could add the text,

"A brother annoyed at his sister."

They'll read the text and look at my face.

-Right.

-So they'll look at it for longer.

-I like that idea.

-I'll be in the back frowning at you.

After we got first place,

I started obeying his every word.

Could you help me color my face pink?

Okay. No problem.

Just mix this with water.

Like this?

Then apply it on my face.

-Got it. You have great skin.

-Right?

I like this.

This is perfect.

I know, right?

Who else would do this?

People will be impressed

that we put in a lot of effort.

What is it?

OKING and Jang Ji-sou

-have submitted their photo.

-There they go again.

-If we get eliminated after all this

-If we do,

-I'm burning this place down.

-I could accept it.

How could you?

-I'm putting my face on the line.

-Because we did our best.

How do I look?

Like Dooly.

-What do you think?

-You're amazing.

This is my signature expression.

And because of that expression,

there's been a meme going around

that I look like Gongsil, the dinosaur.

A lot of people like that meme,

so I felt confident.

I realized I'd made the right choice.

And I wondered

why nobody else tried to buy her.

Those fools.

Come closer.

All right.

Okay, that's a good spot.

Go for a luxury brand model look.

Okay, good.

You look great.

Right there.

That's perfect.

Ten minutes left

until the end of the third game.

Come a bit closer.

We need to add the text.

This time, we wanted to add some humor

by parodying Vogue

and changing it to Bogue.

-Like this?

-Yes.

Is this good?

-We could make it smaller.

-Like this, maybe?

Ttaenggu.

-Ttaenggu!

-And then

How about this?

Normally, a person would take

only about three seconds

to look at the dog and move on.

But what if we add a red circle?

A dark red circle

would draw too much attention,

so we could add a light red one.

What about this one?

It's like Ttaenggu's

staring at my breasts.

We don't really have much else.

If we go for sex appeal,

we'll get eliminated.

But your idea is too simple.

I still choose this one.

What do we do?

The third game is now over.

We will now reveal the feed

for the third game.

ROUND 3, 3RD GAME

OKING, JANG JI-SOU

PANIBOTTLE AND JUICE SEYEON

ACCIDENTALLY REVEALED TOO MUCH

This is a bit excessive.

You can't do this.

We're not making flyers here.

It was by the third game

that we finally realized

what it takes to win this game.

This will do.

Done.

-It's easier to read the text, right?

-Yes.

We really don't need our faces

or the sets in the photo.

The best thing to do

is emphasize certain keywords

without us even in the photo.

We knew it would work.

I saw my name, so I tried to read

what they wrote about me.

I saw my name and also Juice Seyeon's.

I wondered what it was all about.

And I realized that I was already

staring at it for a long time.

They had a good plan.

It wasn't a nice thing for them to do,

but it was smart.

I don't think their method

was very groundbreaking.

They just lied.

It's like seeing "Get it free only today"

and realizing it's not true.

The algorithm punishes you

if you can't hold on to attention.

Your 100,000 subscribers

will drop to 90,000,

then to 50,000, and down to 30,000.

You get punished for your lies.

I only see the dog.

ROUND 3, 3RD GAME

JIN YONG-JIN, PYO EUN-JI

It's such a cute dog.

What caught my attention the most

was Yong-jin's dog.

ROUND 3, 3RD GAME

KEJIMIN, RISABAE

She actually looks like

an influencer for Vogue.

She's a Vogue model.

What's this?

PSYCHOLOGICAL TES

WHICH ITEM DO YOU SEE FIRST?

c*ck equals money?

Where's the c*ck?

1: SOJU, LOVER 2: CAMERA, FRIENDS

3: c*ck, MONEY

I also thought of doing this.

HOW A BROTHER LOOKS AT HIS SISTER

COSPLAYING AS DOOLY'S GF

BBOGUMI's going to win.

-We might be going home.

-I think so.

Here is the result

of the third game of Round 3.

Please.

The team that is eliminated

for not capturing enough attention

is Jin Yong-jin and Pyo Eun-ji.

3RD: PANIBOTTLE, BBOGUMI

123 SECONDS, 20.2%

2ND: JUICE SEYEON, JUNWOO

160 SECONDS, 26.3%

4TH: KEJIMIN, RISABAE

115 SECONDS,18.9%

Seriously?

Why did you go with the dog?

I wanted to stand out from the others.

1ST: OKING, JANG JI-SOU

173 SECONDS, 28.5%

5TH: JIN YONG-JIN, PYO EUN-JI, ELIMINATED

37 SECONDS, 6.1%

I wanted to be different.

Good job, buddy.

At least we were different.

I'm disappointed

that I couldn't finish in the top five.

I couldn't realize that dream.

I hope the remaining influencers do well.

Thank you for watching.

This is Jin Yong-jin, signing off.

Congratulations to PaniBottle

for being chosen as the VIP.

ROUND 3 VIP

1ST, PANIBOTTLE, 79.41M

I wonder what I'll get.

2ND, BBOGUMI, 68.36M

Honestly, I was disappointed,

but I think I'll be fine

as long as he thanks me once

in his interviews.

He must've thanked me, right?

This was all thanks

to my immaculate strategy.

Anyone would have easily survived

with BBOGUMI on their team,

so I had this round in the bag

the moment I teamed up with her.

That's what I think.

ROUND 3 VIP

PANIBOTTLE

What's going to happen here?

I'm a bit lonely in here.

Here is the VIP benefit from Round 3.

I want to go in there too.

The whole upside to the benefit

is that you get to know

the next round's rules first.

Getting to know the rules beforehand

and strategizing is huge.

I'm jealous of PaniBottle.

The benefit of

will be given to the VIP in Round 4.

-Hey, man.

-I guess it's something good.

I loved it.

This was probably the best benefit so far.

It was amazing.

I'll use my benefit.

PaniBottle has used his VIP benefit.

That's crazy.

So that's what it was.

I'll try my best to keep going

and not get eliminated.

OKING

STREAMER & YOUTUBER

My goal is to reach the final round.

KEJIMIN

TIKTOK CREATOR

My goal is to win.

I have to reach for the top.

BBOGUMI

STREAMER & YOUTUBER

I always aim

to be the best at everything I do.

My goal is to win.

PANIBOTTLE

TRAVEL YOUTUBER

I believe in fate.

And that the heavens

will decide what happens.

All I can do is try my best.

Round 4 begins now.

In Round 4

your qualifications as influencers

will be evaluated.

What does that mean?

In this round,

your metacognition, influence,

persuasiveness,

and ability to analyze content

will be put to the test

in a series of four games.

Only 4 influencers will survive Round 4

Only 4 influencers will survive Round 4

and move on to the final round.

The influencer

who finishes first in each game

will survive and move on

to the final round

without participating in the next games.

The influencer in last place

will be eliminated.

Influencers who are neither first nor last

will participate in the next games.

I was confident I'd survive

since only one person

was getting eliminated in each game.

Of the four games,

I can say I have an advantage

in more than one game,

so I think I have a good chance

of making the final round.

You only need to win one game to move on,

so I'll do my best

to go to the final round.

The first game of Round 4

of The Influencer

What is it?

ROUND 4, 1ST GAME

METACOGNITION

is the Hashtag Battle.

Hashtag Battle?

Hashtag Battle?

Only the influencers

who know themselves well

are able to market themselves

better to the public.

Use metacognition

to assess yourself objectively

and prove your appeal.

Prove that you own the given hashtags

and win as many as possible.

We need to win them?

The influencer with the highest worth

will choose the first hashtag.

Present logical reasoning

for why the hashtag fits you best

and prove yourself as its owner.

Then vote amongst yourselves to decide

who the rightful owner of the hashtag is.

You will be given 60 minutes in total.

Within this time, the influencer

who claims the most number of hashtags

will survive and move on

to the final round,

while the influencer who claims

the least number of hashtags

will be eliminated.

The first game begins now.

Here we go.

As the influencer with the highest worth,

PaniBottle will choose the first hashtag.

-Let's go, PaniBottle!

-Let's go!

I could see that there were

both positive and negative tags.

I'm not a particularly good person,

but I'm not a troll either,

so it's vague what I am.

I was thinking that a lot of the hashtags

didn't really apply to me,

but then I saw one I really wanted.

What caught my eye was

I choose #TrendVids.

The first hashtag is #TrendVids.

#TRENDINGVIDEOS

KwakTube and I

share a nickname related to this.

It's #TrendVidsLaunchpad.

I'm confident I can make this tag mine.

I've actually had

a video of me looking like a man

get on the Trending tab.

It was one of my

Shameless Makeup Challenge videos.

ARE YOU PUTTING BUTTER ON YOUR HAIR?

YOUR STAGE PRESENCE IS AMAZING

I'M GETTING SO PUMPED

Is that not good enough?

Well, I have a list right here

to prove myself.

One Taiwan video got third,

my first Taiwan video got first,

my Egypt video got second,

my motorcycle trip

with Kian84 and Lee Si-eon got second,

my video with Dex got first,

so did my Vietnam video with Hong-chul

You're so annoying.

another video with Hong-chul got second,

and Damn Good Company also made the list.

I don't know about other hashtags,

but this tag is definitely mine.

#TRAVELYOUTUBER

#TRENDVIDSLAUNCHPAD

I agree with you. I'll press one for you.

Me too.

Well, in that case

-No, it's not over yet.

-No?

Have you ever dated publicly?

Is that where you're taking this?

He's really something.

I did date, but not publicly.

What's the longest

you've been on Trending?

I don't remember.

-My record is two weeks.

-With just one video?

Four or five days with my video

and about a week

with the other person's video.

#PUBLICDATING

I went to Qatar for the last World Cup,

and I was there for about eight days,

during which

I gained one million followers.

-One million in eight days?

-Yes.

I posted 70 videos over that one week.

-Seventy?

-Yes.

1 MILLION FOLLOWERS

#TIKTOKQATARGIRL

#10MILLIONFOLLOWERS

I produced a series called Accomplice.

Each episode of the series

was either first or second

on the Trending list.

ACCOMPLICE:

A REAL-LIFE VERSION OF THE MAFIA GAME

A MYSTERY SHOW INVOLVING A BATTLE OF WITS

All 16 episodes

were either first or second.

And it lasted a month and a half.

That's crazy.

I once beat IVE on the list.

Well, I conquered Qatar.

I think a strong impact is key.

We will now begin voting

to decide the owner

of the hashtag #TrendVids.

The candidates are PaniBottle

#TRENDVIDSLAUNCHPAD

KEJIMIN

#TIKTOKQATARGIRL

OKING

#PUBLICDATING

and Jang Ji-sou.

#ACCOMPLICE

Please vote for the influencer

you consider to be

the owner of the hashtag #TrendVids.

You may not vote for yourself.

Here is the result.

The owner of #TrendVids

is PaniBottle.

PANIBOTTLE, 6 VOTES

OKING, 1 VOTE

JANG JI-SOU, 1 VOTE

KEJIMIN, 0 VOTES

He honestly is the launchpad

of Trending videos.

I made #TrendVids mine.

I knew I could.

He's a hitmaker

whose videos are always guaranteed

to get on the Trending tab.

I couldn't help but vote for him.

#TRENDVIDS

The next hashtag is #NumberOne.

I want to claim this hashtag.

Me too.

It's me.

I was the number one female streamer

on AfreecaTV last year.

-Among female streamers?

-Yes.

I also made the most money.

-Could I ask how much?

-Yes.

I've made about 3.2 billion won.

-Are you kidding me?

-But that's before any commission.

So I think I have a strong claim

to this hashtag.

I have the most followers

out of all eight of us here.

How many?

I have 11.3 million followers.

-Did you say 11.3 million?

-Yes.

The rest of our followers added up

don't even amount to that.

I should own #NumberOne!

I was number one on AfreecaTV as a whole,

but you're not number one on TikTok.

-What?

-Other TikTokers have more than you.

But I was number one

among all female AfreecaTV streamers.

-So you were number one overall?

-Yes.

She still has more than us.

-That's true.

-Among us,

I can say that I'm number one.

You do have the most followers.

-You're really popular overseas.

-That's right.

Like in India?

Yes, in India, Indonesia

Sorry, but I'm not that familiar

with TikTok.

I'm also not that familiar with AfreecaTV.

Please vote

for the influencer you consider

the owner of the hashtag #NumberOne.

I worked hard to be

the number one female streamer

on AfreecaTV last year.

I don't know if it'll happen again,

so I wanted the tag

while it still applied to me.

I'm number one when it comes to followers.

I really wanted this to be mine.

Here is the result

of the vote for #NumberOne.

The owner of the hashtag

is KEJIMIN.

Thank you.

KEJIMIN, 5 VOTES

JUICE SEYEON, 3 VOTES

No one can beat her in terms of numbers.

Based on the size of the overall market,

KEJIMIN has to be number one,

even just in terms of the number of views.

Being number one

doesn't mean making the most money.

Juice Seyeon

might have made 3.2 billion won,

but that doesn't count

toward being number one in my view.

KEJIMIN's influence overseas

and her follower count

are far superior to anyone here,

so she deserves the hashtag #NumberOne.

KEJIMIN has been voted

the owner of #NumberOne.

Please choose the next hashtag.

I'll choose #Trend.

#Trend?

I have something to say.

My appearance on the YouTube scene

completely shifted the nature

of Korean travel content on YouTube.

I introduced a trend.

-Wasn't that KwakTube?

-No, I started it.

He learned from me.

I started making travel content

in my own style for fun,

and that became a trend.

I'm in the city of Amritsar.

They're nice to foreigners.

Damn, the smell of oil.

LET'S CHASE HIM AWAY

Hell begins now.

Fire hell, water hell.

The end.

Some people are even saying

they're tired of my style of content.

That just shows how much

other YouTubers are copying me.

#TRAVELTREND #PANIROAD

#TOUGHWORLDTRAVEL

I can confidently say

that I was at the forefront of this trend.

-That's my opinion.

-When research was done

to make a list of celebrities

with the trendiest makeup,

I was second on the list

and Jennie was third.

I'm a veteran in this industry,

and yet I still continuously rank high

among celebrities

with the trendiest makeup.

I can confidently say

I've been a trendsetter in my field.

#MAKEUPTREND

#GENMZCHOSENCELEBRITY

For eight years.

Isn't it time for you to retire?

You're right. I'll stop after this year.

PaniBottle and I

had never talked before this show,

so he seemed kind of petty.

Eight years is a very long time,

and she's clever.

It's going to be a tight match.

I would say I'm a trendsetter

in the Middle East and Southeast Asia.

#SHORTFORMTREND

#MIDDLEEASTMEME #ARABMEME

-What about Korea?

-If you think about it,

a lot of global viewers

watch Netflix as well.

These days, Korean content is king.

-K-beauty is spreading globally.

-It's the main attraction.

I made a song called "Tingtong Tingtong."

-"Dingdong"?

-It's "Tingtong Tingtong."

-But no one here has heard of it.

-Exactly.

That's pretty unconvincing.

We will now begin voting.

Here is the result of the vote for #Trend.

I was impressed by PaniBottle's talent

as an all-around entertainer.

As basically the godmother

of the beauty industry,

RISABAE is a trendsetter like no other.

The owner of the hashtag #Trend

is RISABAE.

Thank you so much, everyone.

RISABAE, 6 VOTES

PANIBOTTLE, 2 VOTES

KEJIMIN, 0 VOTES

The next hashtag

is #PlasticSurgery.

-This is a tough one.

-I own this!

Me too!

-You've had surgery?

-Yes.

-Really?

-I don't know about everybody else,

but I've had several procedures done.

I've had double eyelid surgery twice.

And I also had braces for my teeth.

-That's not plastic surgery.

-Braces aren't

Are you lying just to win?

-Do you have an old photo?

-I was so ugly.

What about your neck wrinkles?

Please kick him out of the game!

Modern plastic surgery

can't get rid of neck wrinkles yet.

-Really?

-Yes.

You can ask me

anything about plastic surgery.

-Could I get my chin fat removed?

-Of course.

-Really?

-They can remove just that fat.

-I have a question.

-Okay.

I sort of have a hooked nose.

Could I make it look better?

You have two options.

First, you could tighten your columella

and sharpen your nose tip,

but it only works for certain noses.

-Let's vote for her.

-Still, I don't recommend it for you

because your nostrils

actually look nice as is.

-Really? I should let it be?

-If your nose tip goes up,

your nostrils will get bigger,

and you'll lose money.

It's not good for you,

even in a superstitious way.

I have a question.

Will you vote for me

if I reveal my old photo?

It depends.

We'll see if you're worthy of the hashtag.

Okay.

I hope you can see it.

-You were pretty!

-Why did you get surgery?

-Your surgeries failed!

-Seriously, why?

I've also had plastic surgery

on my eyes twice.

One was a partial incision surgery,

and the other

was a quick non-incision surgery,

which only cost me 300,000 won.

I'm still grateful to my surgeon.

To add to my point,

I've had two plastic surgeries,

and I think I'll need more.

Where else would you get surgery?

My overall face, but mostly my nose.

Don't do it. Your nose is pretty as is.

Am I pretty?

I don't recommend getting a nose job

unless it's very serious

because you'll need

two or more procedures.

What an expert.

-She's winning me over.

-A nose job doesn't end the first time.

You'll have to remove the implant

Stop getting mad

and try to make an argument.

She's huffing and puffing next to me.

You need to refute her.

You're just jealous,

so you're getting worked up.

What's the point?

I've had actual plastic surgery,

but I also change

my appearance often in my videos.

Actual plastic surgeons

have commented on my videos

that they learn from me

and keep up with trends through me.

That proves just how exceptional

my makeup skills are.

Here is the result

of the vote for #PlasticSurgery.

The owner of the hashtag

is RISABAE.

Thank you, everyone.

RISABAE, 5 VOTES

BBOGUMI, 3 VOTES

You're in the lead.

I won the hashtags

#PlasticSurgery and #Trend,

which are very beauty-related.

#TREND

#PLASTICSURGERY

#TRENDVIDS, #NUMBERONE

The next hashtag

is #GoodInfluence.

I chose to be a beauty content creator

to become a good influence on others

by teaching people

how to do makeup by themselves.

And it may not be much,

but I also donate to worthy causes.

As a YouTuber

whose content is about traveling,

I get comments such as,

"I can't travel because of my bad leg,

so I live vicariously through you."

And when people weren't able to travel

during the COVID pandemic,

I provided vicarious thrills.

I can't say if I had a good influence,

but I definitely had an influence.

As influencers,

I think an important aspect

of being a good influence

is sharing and giving back

to as many people as possible.

Having said that,

in terms of money donated,

I'm positive I've donated the most

among solo content creators.

As of February of 2023,

-I've donated around 500 million won.

-I'm jealous.

I once donated to the

Ajou University Hospital Trauma Center

when Dr. Lee Guk-jong was still there.

I donated the money I earned

by walking across the country

to children unable to walk.

#DONATIONFORPATIENTS

When I heard

about the plight of female students

who couldn't afford to buy sanitary pads,

I donated 40 million won

worth of products.

Most importantly,

our country is currently at a ceasefire.

To thank our soldiers,

I've donated about 20 million won

worth of fried chicken

to our soldiers on military bases.

Additionally,

I also donate to children's centers.

Are you still going?

He's trying to win with money.

Since we're on the topic,

I'm just trying to explain

how I'm truly a good influence.

Roughly we spent about

13 to 20 minutes on each hashtag.

My plan was to win

about two hashtags to secure my place.

Talking a lot and taking up time

was part of my strategy.

-Let's vote.

-If I could add one more thing

Oh, come on! Keep it short.

I'll keep it short.

Since I started streaming six years ago,

I've done volunteer work

delivering coal briquettes every year.

-I know about that.

-And starting last year,

I've also volunteered

I've volunteered to clean up beaches.

Could we set a time limit for each person?

How do we beat that?

Here is the result

of the vote for #GoodInfluence.

The owner of the hashtag

is OKING.

Thank you.

Please choose the next hashtag.

I'll go with #Exposed.

I have nothing to say about this one.

NO HASHTAGS WON

I have something to say.

I just wanted to avoid being last.

There were others with no hashtags,

so I had to get ahead of them.

I once went on a trip

with a close female friend,

but my ex-boyfriend spread rumors

that I went with a fan.

That made me the talk of the town

in the streaming world

-for several months.

-It was big.

-He wrote that in a forum.

-You were falsely exposed.

You were on the news too.

Yes, I even got on the news.

So I think the hashtag #Exposed

fits me perfectly.

It's not a hashtag I liked,

but it's one that fits

what happened to me.

I didn't think anyone could beat me to it.

I also wanted to clear my name

and explain myself.

If you search my name,

you'll see the keyword "unpaid wages."

I once went on a show

and ended up not being paid.

I tried to move past it

but eventually exposed what they had done.

I know about this.

I immediately thought,

"You deserve my vote."

You really exposed them.

I guess it also matters

how much we know about each other.

Here is the result

of the vote for #Exposed.

As the vote ended in a tie,

OKING and Juice Seyeon

will both be the owners

-of the hashtag #Exposed.

-I see.

OKING, 4 VOTES

JUICE SEYEON, 4 VOTES

#PAS

My live streams

have basically become comedy shows,

but I used to be

a typical female streamer.

-I used to go by Quaddurup.

-Right.

-That's a big one.

-That's right.

I wanted to be a rapper,

so I went on Show Me The Money 2.

I've released two albums.

-Really?

-Yes, I've done that in the past.

The owner of the hashtag #Past

-is Jang Ji-sou.

-Thank you.

This was expected.

-#Dislikes?

-#Dislikes?

-This is mine.

-I can't lose this one.

I have probably received

the most dislikes here.

It's definitely more than 100,000.

I once had more than

70,000 dislikes on a video,

my review of the first episode

of Toy Soldiers.

I had never received

so many insults as I did then.

The owner of the hashtag #Dislikes

is OKING.

Hold on. Should I be happy about this?

Five minutes left in the Hashtag Battle.

I'm screwed.

As time passed,

I started getting more anxious.

The next hashtag

is #AttentionSeeker.

That's me.

I always seek attention.

For example, I once climbed

a pigeon tower while traveling.

This is the craziest thing

I've ever done while traveling.

I swam across an ocean.

Help!

I almost died.

I have so many examples.

In Mauritania,

I rode on a coal-carrying train.

I debated whether to hold out

for the full 20 hours with all the dust,

but eventually got off after five hours

because I thought I was going to die.

People in the comments

were accusing me of seeking attention

and saying I could die

or someone could die copying me.

I'm a real attention-seeker

who even risked my life.

-You risked your life for attention.

-Yes.

I'm an attention-seeker.

There were already too many

great travel YouTubers when I started out,

and I didn't have any special talents.

All I had was my desire for attention.

I risk my life for attention.

Hearing you say that,

-I'd like to add something.

-Okay.

While sh**ting The Influencer,

I think I contributed the most

to the show out of everyone.

I baited people to draw in viewers

and did things for attention.

I even shaved my eyebrow.

I also cosplayed as Gongsil.

I was the only person here

to do so much to seek attention.

Sure, you shaved your eyebrow.

But can that k*ll you?

Could you show us

how you seek attention right here?

Show us.

I can't just do it out of the blue.

This is how you do it.

What are you, an attention-seeker?

Normally, BBOGUMI is the best

at seeking attention.

But at that moment,

she shied away from it.

You need to be able to

act out spontaneously.

I'm the freaking attention-seeker!

I can even do this.

This is what a real attention-seeker does.

PaniBottle is like a vicious wild dog.

Right? Why can't you

do something like this?

Come on.

I need to do more.

Here I go.

I want to be good at this.

Is he serious? What an attention-seeker.

Being an attention-seeker was all I had.

I'm embarrassed to admit it,

but it was my only choice.

I'm an attention-seeker.

Round 4 is scary.

I tend to grovel,

but usually not this much.

I got carried away.

Who am I supposed to vote for?

This is intense.

That's what the hashtag is about.

I had a reason

for laying low in the beginning.

My plan was to go all in

on a hashtag that fit me perfectly,

but time had already passed a lot

while I was waiting.

I was worried I'd get eliminated

if I didn't act soon,

so I tried to speak up a bit more.

One minute left in the Hashtag Battle.

I'd like to put my name in.

Of all the stories

about attention-seeking I've heard,

-I think mine's the worst.

-What is it?

Someone peed on a Korean flag

-What?

-and burned it.

I wanted attention,

so I reported that attention-seeker.

That's not enough.

If it were you who peed on the flag,

you would win.

That's a real attention-seeker.

-Should we vote?

-We'll vote now.

We're ready!

Here is the result

of the vote for #AttentionSeeker.

The owner of the hashtag

is PaniBottle.

PANIBOTTLE, 6 VOTES

BBOGUMI, 2 VOTES

KEJIMIN, 0 VOTES

JUNWOO, 0 VOTES

I couldn't help but vote for you.

How could anyone beat that?

I was voted the worst attention-seeker

by a room full of attention-seekers,

which is very meaningful.

Here is the final result

of the first game, the Hashtag Battle.

ROUND 4, 1ST GAME

HASHTAG BATTLE RESULTS

1ST: OKING, 3 HASHTAGS, SURVIVED

TIED FOR 7TH

JUNWOO AND BBOGUMI, 0 HASHTAGS

Based on the final result,

BBOGUMI and Junwoo

both failed to win any hashtags.

So extra time will be given

to determine who will be eliminated.

BBOGUMI will choose the hashtag

as her worth is higher.

Is it one-on-one?

-It's just them.

-Just the two of them?

I chose a hashtag

that Junwoo couldn't relate to

but fit me perfectly.

I'll go with #Viral.

#Viral?

I'm embarrassed to say this myself.

-You have to if you want to survive.

-You have to.

-Don't be embarrassed.

-So

I'm not sure if you've seen

my "I'm pretty" video.

I've seen it.

I'm pretty, okay? Tell me I am!

I wore a sailor uniform,

put on a headband and lipstick,

so I'm pretty!

I'm really pretty!

Give me your money since I'm pretty!

4.24 MILLION VIEWS

Overnight,

it got a total of ten million views

on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.

My channel averaged

about 10,000 views a video,

so it was surreal

that it got ten million views.

-It really went viral.

-Exactly.

And recently,

I went viral for looking like a shoe.

What's going on here?

You're saying

I look like an inanimate object?

Are you seriously saying

my mouth looks like a shoe?

I'm speechless. I'm losing my mind here.

Within two weeks,

that video got one million views.

Considering my usual view count,

I really couldn't believe it.

So I've had several experiences

of going viral.

Then let me bring up some data.

I've had more than ten videos

get on the Trending tab.

-More than ten?

-And I have more total views than you.

I've also gained

100,000 subscribers in one day.

In one day?

-That many in one day?

-Yes.

If we're talking about going viral,

I think you should prove yourself

with hard numbers.

So I think the #Viral hashtag

is more suitable to me.

We will now begin voting.

This is a tough choice.

Considering his subscriber count,

Junwoo deserved my vote.

In terms of subscriber count,

Junwoo has the advantage.

However, BBOGUMI has gone viral

and drawn more attention more recently.

I thought she deserved it more,

so I voted for her.

Her photo kept lingering in my mind.

So she deserves the hashtag #Viral.

I thought Junwoo made a logical argument.

-This is so tough.

-Who do I vote for?

It's hard because they both have evidence

to support their argument.

I'm more nervous than I've ever been.

Based on the result of extra time,

the owner of the hashtag #Viral

is BBOGUMI.

Junwoo has been eliminated.

Junwoo's worth

will be transferred to OKING,

who finished the first game

in first place.

JUNWOO, ELIMINATED

OKING survives in first place

and moves on to the final round.

The first influencer

to move on to the final round

is the king of chat streamers, OKING.

-OKING!

-OKING!

I've prepared mukbangs,

blind dates

-We are!

-OKING!

-The winner will be!

-OKING!

I'm OKING, the favorite to win.

All three are my rivals.

I'm going to aim for first place.
