With trembling hands, I clicked on the post.
Daeju-dan had always possessed suspiciously high deductive abilities. Sometimes they were so sharp that I wondered if they knew everything about me, including perhaps that I came from a reversed world. That’s why I was always careful not to give too much information when telling stories.
But finally, such a post appeared.
A post titled [Perfect Deduction Version of Daeju’s Relationships?]
Not only was I worried about the content, but I was also concerned about potential harm to the people around me. Once something starts getting mentioned on this Tgether, people sometimes cross the line, and then I really wouldn’t be able to face the people around me.
Somehow, I turned my stiff neck to release the tension and clicked on the post.

[Perfect Deduction Version of Daeju’s Relationships?]
First, I only deduced based on confirmed information
Just because the information is confirmed doesn’t mean the deduction is correct, so take it as entertainment only. If you want to refute it, what can I say? You’re right, you b*tches~
- Yeonhee
Yeah, that’s the one. You all say you absolutely won’t watch Yeonhee because she’s disgusting, but you’re that b*tch who sneaks over to watch her livestreams and YouTube videos when Daeju isn’t streaming or when you’re bored. What’s her relationship with Daeju? Well, this one is harder to figure out than you’d think… But they say people who love each other start to look alike, and Daeju and Yeonhee are suspiciously similar
Gaming hermit, streamer, good at collecting money, didn’t used to dress up but recently started to, trash fans, chat is a garbage dump
With all these similarities, aren’t they actually dating?
But if they’re not dating and are this similar, maybe most of the streamers we enjoy watching just have these characteristics
***
“What is this? I got nervous for nothing.”
The deduction was so poor that I felt like I’d wasted energy being tense.
I had imagined seeing my home address or detailed information about everyone I’d met, but looking at it now, it barely qualified as deduction and seemed more like someone writing down their wishful thinking.
[Ah, read till the end fr]
[fr you’ll regret not reading it]
[Get tense again and read down from number 2, that’s where it gets real.]
However, viewers who had already read it all were pleading to read until the end, confident about what was written below.
Well, if it was all just content like this, it wouldn’t have gotten this many upvotes.
People who spend more time on the internet than I do before streaming are quite stingy with upvotes.
They absolutely never upvote duplicate material, boring content, or nonsense.
Unlike social butterflies, loners are solemn and serious in places like this.
So surely this post must have gained attention for some reason.
“Ah geez, don’t tell me there are underwear photos again?”
[Got trauma from the underwear incident lololol]
[Nah lol nothing like that lol]
[You think we’d want to see you take another break?]
[Do you know how painful it was having to watch other streams while you were gone lololol]
[How tf do you manage to ban swearing in chat you f*cking b*tches]
“Alright, I believe you.”

- Convenience Store Person
People who just started watching streams recently won’t know this, but since the convenience store part-timer days, there have been suspiciously frequent Daeju sightings, and I have hooo~feelings[1] about him meeting with Geum Taeyang too
But suddenly she disappeared and stopped writing posts. Actually, the reason for this has been revealed. While everyone was busy cursing, this convenience store person and the Daeju-dan who posted the underwear photos are the same person.
How do I know?
This b*tch must be lacking something up there because while the IDs were different, the IP was the same?
So now that we’ve established they’re the same person, why mention her in introducing people around Daeju?
(photo), (photo)
The phone from yesterday’s collab stream and the phone used to hide the face when taking the underwear photos.
Same case, same model.
Additionally, the hairstyle, length, body proportions, even the mole on the wrist are identical lol you f*cking b*tch
In other words, convenience store worker = underwear photo girl = woman who appeared in today’s collab. They’re all the same person
This is my personal opinion, but I’m rooting for this b*tch to work out with Daeju.
Because being stupid and a Daeju-dan, while falling far short in specs compared to Yeonhee and Geum Taeyang who I’ll introduce later, makes it easy for me to project myself onto her hehe
- Geum Taeyang.
Surprisingly, compared to Yeonhee and convenience store person, she seems the most normal.
So she’s the number one candidate for official relationship, but because she’s Geum Taeyang, won’t she remove herself from candidacy for the sake of her character? If she has any conscience, I desperately hope she’ll forcefully pounce or use her own charm and skills to corrupt Daeju into her man when he gets a girlfriend gg
There’s not much information about this person, but you know what?
The day after the Geum Taeyang sighting, Daeju wrote asking if he could take a break from streaming because he was tired from exercise.
This… Couldn’t it be from some kind of exercise with Geum Taeyang?
- Editor.
Just don’t expect any romance elements with Daeju’s doormat lol
You can’t feel love for a boss who makes you work in the first place. If you disagree, you’re either a Daeju-dan who’s never worked part-time, or a b*tch whose boss was an idol. Those b*tches should bite their tongues because they’re too enviable
3-line summary for you who hate long posts
- Convenience store worker = underwear photo girl = woman who appeared in today’s collab.
- Hope Geum Taeyang makes a move soon
- Yeonhee’s an idiot
- Precious Daeju

While most of it was whatever, they had done particularly persistent deduction about Soo-ah.
Moreover, it was extremely accurate and detailed deduction. Honestly, as far as Soo-ah was concerned, maybe they just mentioned the others for show at this level.
Still, I had to deny it.
No matter how perfect the deduction, Soo-ah’s privacy needed to be protected. I decided to act with all my might.
“Ah, but that’s not right? Most of these deductions are off base? I mean, how could someone only have 4 people in their network!”
[fr lol that part is a bit suspicious]
[But looking at Daeju’s reaction, seems like it’s right?]
[There’s probably like Twis managers or advertising people mixed in there somewhere.]
[Obviously, obviously]
If I were good at acting, I would’ve become an actor.
I wanted to tell Soo-ah I was sorry, but it couldn’t be helped, and that I did my best.
She’s probably watching the stream right now too?
And I proudly denied having only 4 connections.
Because there’s also the Twis manager. We’ve been in contact a lot recently. Mostly because we’ve been discussing and looking into the suspension issue, but still.
[So who do you like best?]
[Just tell noona, I’ll give you advice super pro at dating]
[Dating pro special) Forever single]
[If I were Daeju I’d honestly go for Yeonhee. She must make crazy money]
[If Daeju and Yeonhee got together wow married streamer couple insane;;; Money-making power “500 times” woah]
This time, seemingly pleased with the romance topic from the post, they eagerly started making their own combinations.
Honestly, it was embarrassing, and maybe because they were people around me, I felt guilty and wanted to change the flow of conversation, but it wasn’t easy.
Still, I tried.
“Wow, they say there’s this new law these days?!”
[What about convenience store person?]
[She’s lacking in characteristics… how about going for an exhibitionist concept or yandere or obsessive concept?]
[Even with that concept it’d be hard]
[This b*tch just has no advantages… just gloomy, but immersion level is max f*ck… is it because she’s a Daeju-dan?]
[You’re gloomy too]
Maybe talking about the law was the problem.
Yeah, it wasn’t really an interesting law, and I’d need to say something more stimulating to change this flow.
Food, how about food?
In my streams, whenever I talked about food, opinions would flow back and forth to the point where they’d fight among themselves.
“Wow~ They say there’s this new ice cream that makes my mouth water~”
[Geum Taeyang is the official one~]
[Geum Taeyang… official is a bit…]
[You don’t know anything, these days the trend is Geum Taeyang stealing husbands]
[The current trend is hot]
It didn’t work at all.
Finally, when even ordinary people who don’t watch streams started getting mentioned, I became desperate.
But one idea came to mind.
“Here! Cat! Cat! Come on!”
[Haah~]
[So cute really want to put it in my mouth and suck]
[Daeju?]
[?]
[Calico cats are the truth]
[Post some dog pictures too, this is breed discrimination~]
Finally, only after the cat pictures came out did this chaos settle down.
Because of this, the chat would probably continue with pets, cats, and dogs for a while, but at least it was much better than continuing to talk about people around me. Better or not, I made sure to show any cute cat or dog pictures that were posted on stream to keep this conversation going.
Soon most of the posts became:
[Look at my Nabi!][2]
[Isn’t my chonky cat cute?]
[Country house raising 9 golden retrievers]
[Turtle owner appearing. Going to raise it until it goes to the dragon palace]
[This is my parrot) Words it knows: f*ck, f*ck off, is this dying?]
With titles like these.
I sighed but was satisfied that I’d managed to contain it with minimal damage.
Thank you, kitty… If I meet you on the street—
Still, I won’t feed you.
But I’ll cheer for you in my heart.
Along with the irresponsible promise to cheer on cats I’d never meet since I don’t even go out on the streets, I started building up to end the stream.
“Well everyone, today… I think I worked really hard, and did a good job…”
[What a unique ending message. Did you take the wrong medicine?]
[You did work hard, but you’re not an alcoholic][3]
[Wait, you need to answer before you go]
“Answer what?”
[So who do you like best still?]
[It’s convenience store person, right?]
[You’re that person, right? Anyone can see it’s not convenience store]
My head started hurting again at the returning topic.
So I decided to put an end to it here.
“I’ll answer one last time, and if this gets mentioned on stream again, you’re banned?”
The viewers thought about it but, overcome by curiosity since I was going to answer anyway, gave their okay.
After taking a deep breath, I thought about who was the most comfortable person to be around.
“So far, Se-na, ah I mean the Geum Taeyang-nim you all talk about is the most comfortable…”
[What??? Why do you know her name?]
[mmhm I can imagine what it is, is it what I think? You naughty thing~]
[Why do men like bad women?]
[There are no good women around Daeju though?]
[Why does Daeju… still like women even in this situation]
