In 2017, someone took a candle to the streets, [2017 candlelight vigil]
50,000 people in the first week,
then 300,000 the following week, a million a week later,
[With my stupid friend lol] [This pic looks hot]
Frigid weather couldn't stop this movement, [1 million candles strong!]
and 16,852,360 people marched the streets in four months,
[Together in Hope]
This figure equates to a third of South Korea's total population,
It resulted an impeachment of the sitting president,
and the globally renowned (bleeped) corporation publicly apologized for its suspected ties
to the presidential corruption,
These events became global news,
with some portraying it as a battleground of democracy,
and others likening it to a nation still at war,
There were also areas of concern,
But there is something no media outlets in the world paid attention to:
"Who was the first to start the candlelight vigil?"
[This story is based on true events,]
[It is a reconstruction of events between 1992 and 2023 based on tips and testimonies,]
[In order to avoid legal issues such as defamation and infringement of honor, ]
[characters and organizations' names have been changed, but the rest are all factual,]
The candlelight vigil call-for-action post first appeared online in 1992,
So, it was exactly 31 years ago,
Back then, it took a full minute to go online,
and once connected, the home phone line was useless,
Despite that, users of the travel BBS "Over the Mountains and Across the Waters"
reached nearly 5,000,
This BBS grew so big thanks to the admin who had vast travel knowledge,
The admin's username was "Deavil", [Admin: Deavil]
But no one knew he was a 16-year-old teen,
Are you gonna fool around on the computer all day?!
You little punk,
- Our phone line's busy all day! - I just turned it on!
Have you ever heard of "PC communication"?
It's a service in which users share information over phone lines,
This will become a paid service as early as next month,
Then one day,
a large economic journal bought up the entire free internet network,
and announced its monetization,
If we have to pay, I'm gonna cut off the computer,
Dammit!
You punk, where's your manners at the dinner table!
The largest shareholder of this journal was (bleeped) Group,
the leading company representing the Federation of Korean Industries,
FKI is a federation in which only the top 20 corporations are admitted,
and most of them owned media outlets to control the public opinion,
and for this reason, the politicians tiptoed around them,
From now on, I'll refer to (bleeped) Group as "Manjun",
In order to avoid a defamation suit, my hands are tied,
Anyway, no one in Korea could touch them, [Manjun to be Growth Platform For Economy]
But Deavil was confident that he could fight anyone and win,
even though he did not know his foe,
Boy! Tear gas doesn't bother you?!
Back then, the symbol of protest was a Molotov cocktail,
- Boy, you're addicted to computers! - But he found something even more symbolic,
I'm gonna tell your dad and throw out that computer!
This was the world's first candlelight vigil,
Excuse me, are you Deavil by any chance?
Yes,
But not many people gathered,
Internet at the time was much too slow,
[Keep Internet Free]
A month later, PC communication became a paid service,
and Deavil's BBS shut down for good,
Then 24 years later,
the one who raised the first candlelight was Mr, Lee Sung-cheol,
He was the organizer of the festival, [Candlelight Culture Festival]
and former admin of the BBS "Over the Mountains",
[Candlelight Culture Festival]
And the one who created the vigil website to gather people
was Lee Sung-cheol's brother, Lee Sung-wook,
Sung-wook was said to have been influenced heavily by his brother,
[Raise the Candlelight,,,]
In the end, a middle schooler brought 16,852,360 people to the streets,
It's because the internet was fast enough,
[Manjun Issues Apology]
And the global powerhouse, Manjun, finally came forward publicly to apologize,
I personally investigated these, putting my journalistic integrity on the line,
That's right, I'm a journalist,
And this story started with this man's tip,
Woosung Data was a mid-sized corp,
and it was the only vendor to compete for the next-gen Hi-Pass transponder,
- No problem? - No,
Double check, buddy,
Sure,
Exclusive rights worth $50M in annual revenue was on the line,
A week before the test,
the highway authority raised the operating speed to 150km/h for safety reasons,
but Woosung did not object,
- No problem? - All good,
Woosung's technology allowed speed of up to 300,
[Standby for Signal]
[Signal Detected] Test ready to go, test ready to go,
We're pretty confident about this, may we raise the speed to 250?
That's unnecessarily dangerous,
How about 200 then?
As you wish,
Sure,
Let's go with 200! 200!
What? [Signal Undetected]
Signal failure!
What? What happened?
Frequency dropped off,
How so?
Let's just get some lunch,
Shit,,,
What happened? Did you mess something?
Excuse me!
May we try it again with lower speed?!
Sure, do that,
In the end, Woosung failed the test,
Is everything okay?
And a vendor without tech who did not qualify to compete
passed the test and won the contract six months later,
This photo was taken at the track,
Yes?
These guys were jamming our frequency,
They're holding something,
Do you have another photo?
I barely managed to get this!
I'm sure you feel wronged,
I'll investigate this further and give you a call later,
It took five years to develop this tech!
How could a vendor without any tech develop it in six months,
ask anyone around, this doesn't make any sense!
So, I'll look into it myself and give you a call,
That vendor is a Manjun subsidiary!
They stole my employees and my tech!
Manjun?
[Gyeongbu Expressway Hi-Pass Transponder Agreement]
As you know, it's harder to write an article about Manjun,
Have you talked to other journalists?
No,
No way,
I'm not saying I'll write the article, I just want to investigate,,,
I can't?
Why investigate something you won't write an article about?
- Culture desk! That favor I asked you, - If I find something, then I'll write,
Two tickets in the R section?
- Not S? - It's R,
It's because I met an informant, and he talked to other journalists already,
What if we sit on our asses and they get the scoop?
You son of a,,,
Did you even finish your last story?
That one is,,,
a bit too straight forward,
Then write it up straight,
And keep working hard, and become an editor-in-chief and write whatever,
Dismissed,
[Lim Sang-jin]
He's a journalist,
Yes,
Okay,
When one becomes a journalist, you see so many crazy stories,
But not all of them become articles,
An article is like a never-ending serialized novel,
They all seem like different stories, but have one common narrative and flow,
The basis of all stories is conflict,
Conflict with whom,
who is the protagonist, and who is the antagonist?
The antagonist was the head official who shared data with,
Manjun contractors who interfered with Woosung's test and the competitor,
And the protagonist, Woosung's CEO, was left with a $4M debt,
Have you ever leaked a secret that no one knows?
The thrill is exclusive to journalists,
The path of a journalist is dark and lonely,
But his courage changes the world,
[Small Corp Tech]
That is the mission of a journalist,
[Shriek of Small Corp CEO After Spending $20M]
[Manjun's Rampant Exploitation!]
Who gave you permission to write this?
It was a scoop too good to miss,,,
I wanted to just outline it first,
My praises really boosted your ego,,,
I investigated thoroughly and have evidence too,
- Real evidence? - Yes,
- Fact checked? - Yes,
Will you take the heat for it?
Take the heat, sir?
Why? Not confident?
No, I can take it,
This is exclusive,
No,
It's a special exclusive,
Mr, Park, the article is going to press in the morning,
No need to thank me,
I'm calling because other journalists will be calling you,
please ignore their calls,
No, no, just give them my name, and refuse interviews,
That's what you do,
Sir, you don't need to worry anymore,
Of course,
Our story will be plastered all over the country,
I understand, good night,
Yes,
[Shin Caught in Hotel Drug Party]
[Celeb Shin Yi-ho Arrested]
[Shin: "Will Pay for My Crimes,"]
You're lucky your story got buried by the celeb drug arrest,
What an arrogant bastard,,,
You really screwed me over,
You and your frequency jammer,,,
Do these look like jamming equipment to you?
They were apparently taking marketing photos!
You sure about this?
Why are you verifying that with me?
Go check those with your source,
If he changes his story now,
you're in for a hell,
[Sir, please answer my call,]
[Mr, Park?]
He was upbeat for a few days, saying the article will solve everything,
He said Manjun stole Woosung's propriety tech wholesale,
and said he felt a sense of injustice,
Have you heard anything about that?
- He was actually,,, - Yes?
On bad terms with his employees over it,
He insinuated that we stole IP,
and said he'd do background checks,,,
And?
Did he find the mole?
No, it was a different tech from the beginning,
He felt he was victimized,
Please stop crying!
I'm sorry,,,

You okay?
You're not at fault here, it's the desk's fault for not checking,
These bastards are smart though, they sued you instead of us,
Sue me?
Manjun cared about him, I guess,
Don't worry, legal negotiated with them for correction,
Correction under my byline?
Is your story bulletproof? Can you defend it from all sides?
That photo could've been fabricated!
How are we sure they didn't take it afterwards and send it to us?
Buddy,
Your story buried a celeb drug story, saying your report got a man killed,
Please let me dig in further,
I'll get irrefutable evidence and write a follow-up,
They got dirt, I'm sure of it!
Take a 6-month sabbatical,
Sabbatical?
It's just for show, don't feel bad about it,
Take a leave of absence, prep properly,
and come back with a follow-up,

Yes?
So, your 6-month sabbatical is up? [Editor-in-Chief Pyo Ha-jung]
Yes,
It's been 14 months,
But it's my predecessor who promised your reinstatement,
I didn't make that promise,
And you submitted a CV to another outlet recently,
Journalists have innately loose lips, there are no secrets,
You caused a big stink before your leave, can you explain what happened?
Yes, back then,,, it was a weird situation,
It actually wasn't a false report,,,
No? You must have felt wronged,
Why not a follow-up then? Did you try?
Um, no,
You didn't or couldn't?
Couldn't, ma'am,
Yeah, it's hard to write an article without a business card,
But I can't take in a journalist with a dirty rep,
At least while I'm here, You hear me?

Good afternoon,
My name is Lim Sang-jin, Were you the one who sent me the message?
Do you use SNS?
Excuse me,
It was me,
I sent you that message,
Was it tough finding this place?
I'm sorry, there aren't any security cams nearby,

I thought you wouldn't come otherwise,
But he's a real journalism professor,
You got a death wish?
Didn't you find it weird that your article went viral?
Who reads articles like that nowadays?
It wasn't even a sensationalist article,
All the malicious comments were fake,
It just looked like it was a big deal to the media,
In reality, no one cared,
You brought me here to tell me that?
We were the first to create the manipulation tactic,

[The Final Battle]
I was a writer who wrote online,
I was an amateur, but I have never broken my deadline,
Yo, come here!
Get over here!
Hold on!
We're in so much shit, get over here!
Yo, I'm not lying, can you hurry up?
- Come on, man! - Shit!
Shit,,,
Hurry!
- Come on, man! - I'm coming!
Christ,,,
Get over here,
What?!
- Come, come, - Why are you so slow? Get over here,
What? What is it this time?
All right, this chick has a ton of men, like really rich men,
It's not shown here,
but she's smoking hot,
- Yeah? - Yeah,
The thing is, even if guys do everything and buy anything for her,
she will never date any of them, why?
That's how she keeps them on a leash,
And this photo here, this is her trying to show off to other girls,
Write a caption that goes well with it,
Something sexy but also unlikeable,
blatant, yet subtle,
cool but not desperate,
in exactly two lines,
Are you simping her?
Nope,
You so are, you're letting her take advantage of you?
- I said no, - Show us her face,
It's nothing like that, I paid a model for the shot,
What a load of shit,
[I wanted to swim, and he brought me to the hotel pool,]
[Thought we were going to Ibiza when he picked me up,]
Damn, you really are a writer,
[,,,in a convertible,]
Repost this on the video game forum you visit often,
What the shit? No way in hell,
If I repost something like this, I'll get banned,
I know, that's why I'm asking,
You said you got some clout there,
That's why, this will get me the ban hammer,
You gotta do it to catfish,
Catfishing isn't allowed,
It has to be catfishing,
I can't catfish, asshole,
You have to catfish,
Are you hearing my words?
That photo costed me $300,
If that gets reposted in 10 forums,
we get paid $3,000,
How the hell do you make $3,000 with that?
He's lying AF, you actually believe him?
You see that?
What is it?
That,
What?
Look at what?
So? What was it?
It was a new brand of cigarettes,
Advertising cigarettes is illegal,
So, cigarette companies resort to social contribution project to show their logo,
To expose their logos naturally on TV,
they created judo, wrestling, boxing, and foot volleyball teams,
But who would watch sweaty athletes and think about cigarettes?
So, they wanted to start a new way of marketing,
With a sexy and sophisticated image, [Drama Queen needs her attention lol,]
Indirect and subtle, Beauty is also a capital,
[What's the cig brand?]
And without breaking the law, [Showing off expensive shit,]
You intended this to happen?
Of course,
Don't you think there's so much money to be made?
[Is it a new brand?]
So, what's my cut?

He went to get $3,000,
and came back with $5,000 for exceeding expectations,

It was just a one-time deal,
You said there's so much money to be made,
I mean, in this world,
I said there's so much money to be made in this world,
But why did you quit your job?
He didn't quit, he was fired,
Fine, I got fired,

Kat?
Yeah, Kat,
And you're JjingForkKing,
FuckKing?
No, Fork,
JjingFuckKing,
That's a funny name,
We needed usernames that can be pronounced, [Fuck,,,]
but ones that are hard to create with a combo of letters, ForkKing,,,
and ones that will never overlap on any websites,
Why did you make usernames in the first place?
To report our work progress,
We needed to stay anonymous, but retain minimal evidence,
That's why we did it like that,
So, you're PEpteK,,,
No, ChAtTaTkat,
A username generator? Did you develop that?
Wait, I forgot to turn on my recorder,
Could you not record?
Why not?
I could be IDed if my voice is analyzed,
Analyze your voice?
Journalists don't do that, we don't know how,
I know, I'm not worried about you,
Cops and other agencies can't recklessly request recording files,
There's a confidential informant protection law, so you don't need to worry,
I'm not talking about cops,
You think your story is very important, right?
All informants feel that way, they all suffered terrible injustice,
This world is full of so many surprising stories, but not all of them become articles,
Articles are like never-ending serialized novel,
I won't record then,
So just tell me your story,
After that, we got a call from a seasoned movie producer,
Apparently, everything he touched turned into shit, so he had a ton of debt,
My movie's budget is $4 million,
Does it sound a lot?
$4 million is,,,
It's a micro budget,
Right, micro,
Other movies are made with $10 million,
And $2-3 million more for marketing,
Then they boast that so much money went into it, that's how they package it,
Whenever they do that,
my movie only gets smaller,
I was told he was a pitiful man,
What little wish I have is,
I want my movie to be watched by many people,
You came to the right place,
We're experts at that,
Is this by any chance illegal?
It's not illegal,
Not sure if it's legal,,,
But it's not illegal,
- Movie marketing? - Yeah,
That retard sobbed in front of me,
He did? Why did he sob?
Who the fuck knows, retard,
- How much is he paying? - $40,000,
- $40,000? - Yeah,
- Forty-freaking-thousand? - Yeah,
Fuck you, man, I ain't falling for that,
Why'd he pay you $40,000? He has no money, why would he do that?
You're so full of shit,
What do you know, this is a bargain,
They usually pay $2-3 million, so he's getting a good deal,
What are you doing?
Give me that,
Seriously?
Jesus Christ,,,
- For real? - 100%,
100% real,
Shit, don't believe me then!
Yeah?
Yo, you sleeping? We got a gig!
So, we went to watch Love Letter,
It was about a terminally ill woman, a sad, beautiful and,,,
Wow, this is boring as fuck!
super long,
Dude, what do we do?
It's gotta be even a little fun to do something with it,
This is hopeless,
This is gonna be hard,,,
Why are you so serious?
A big-budget movie was playing at the same time,
- That was incredible! - It was crazy!
So, I came up with a new idea,
[A Model Prosecutor]
I was poor, but I had a dream,
Where are you? Hurry up with the body,
I'm on my way,
I was willing to do anything to achieve that dream,
My dream was to put my name in this movie's end credit,
The one who dreams, and the one without a dream, who's crazier in this world?
You there,
A body fell back there,
The set of A Model Prosecutor was absurd, and killed my spirit,
We're about to shoot,
I'm almost there, I'm close,
I was like the limbless body I carried on the set,
Dammit!
What a dumb-ass,,,
What the hell are you doing?
Answer me,
Set! Ready!
Action!
That's how I lost my dream,
Forget it, no need for you,
Just go home, moron!
And I have not been paid $3,400 in salary,
Hey, hey,
Doesn't this feel a bit weak?
Who was that guy, what's his name, that actor?
Let's just say he bullied,
He's got a bad rep too,
No way, way too cheesy,
That's why it'll work, it won't be easy to make excuses,
No, it's good as is,
Be quiet, be quiet,
"I want to stop the pain,"
Even in my dreams, this industry haunts me,
I don't even have the money for rent and phone bills,
I may have lost my dream, but I want my money,
"Please pay me $3,400 you owe,"
Shit, that's so sad,
Okay, title,
"Heavily debated post from a private group for filmmakers,"
Post this to movie forums,
No, no, no,
Instead of movie forums,
how about political forums that social justice warriors frequent?
Good, you're a genius,
Then change that movie set staff to,,,
film industry,,,
laborer, yeah that,
- Done? - Yeah, it's good,
Here we go,
- What are you doing? - What's up?
You don't just post it, gotta capture it and post the image,
- Why? - So that it'll be easily shared,
Eh? How did you know?
Those guys were so smart in that regard,
So, you spread wild rumors to bomb the competition?
Yes,
When it bombs, screens would be shared among small movies,
and that we'd be doing a good thing,
That actually worked?
That movie's about a rich heir
engaging in bullying and battling against a righteous prosecutor,
Pretending to be kind, and triumphing over evil,
But what if the filmmakers were bullies to begin with?
Wouldn't it make the audience uncomfortable to watch it?
That's what we thought, [This is a serious allegation,]
We weren't completely making stuff up, [Cancelled my tic,]

What the hell for?

Do we embarrass you?
Let us come!
Is this real?

So that story about the unpaid staff,,,
You made it all up?
Yes,
But I heard he's someone I know,,,
Who could that be?
We were originally going to just get the user ratings up,
I didn't like the method, so we changed it up,
We didn't think it'd be effective,
This is one of the popular marketing methods,
A competitor was terrorized so that my film can benefit?
- Yes, - Yup,
Do you realize that you're making me feel incredibly humiliated right now?
My film too,
Are you saying you won't pay us?
How dare you barge in here and try to intimidate me?
If you don't pay us, we'll report you to the police,
I think you're the one bound for jail,
Go on, call the police, should I?
I just recorded this conversation,
I got evidence,
You're bound for jail one way or another, wanna get it over with?
You said he's a pushover,
How can you be sure that it failed over one baseless online rumor?
I saw it too, I thought it was going to fail regardless,

What kind of a club?
A fan club for Nakajima Minoru, a Japanese manga artist,
It was a tiny one of a dozen or so members,
It probably doesn't exist anymore,
By the way, what's your real name?
You haven't told me any of your real names,
Do I have to tell you?
No articles can be written without verifying the informant's name,
What if I give you a fake name?
You guys didn't accuse my article of being fake, right?
No, that wasn't us,
Then what will you tell me?
You said you would help me first,
It was the first time that I thought we could actually go to jail,
So, I was thinking of quitting,
Damn,,,
Yeah,,,
You want me to do what?
That's a bit excessive,
It doesn't make any sense,

Not really,
How much did you get paid this time?
I don't know what you're talking about,
He agreed to $40,000,
He stiffed you?
Did you know that tobacco company is still using your method?
Because of your film industry unpaid wages post, a congressional office is prepping a bill,
Do you know how much money it costs to prep something like that?
You know,,,
I don't think you should sell yourself short,
You have no clue how much money you helped move,
Don't you want to work and be treated fairly from now on?
He wasn't a cop?
No, he said the man looked like someone from an agency,
Like a fed,
A fed?
I've never met one, so, I'm not quite sure, but he said the man had that aura,
So what?
What's the job now?
No different than what we've been doing,
Who were they?
Dunno, he wouldn't say,
Money?
Is he gonna pay up?
He looked loaded,
How can we trust you?
What if he backstabs us like the last time?
No way,
But he felt completely different,
And it looked like he was trying to test us,
What test?
He didn't literally say that, It just felt like that,
Then do they know about us?
Yeah, I think so,
Then this could be too dangerous,
Let's do it,
Do it?
You said it's like a test,
And we'll get paid,
Hey, do you know what we've been doing?
A blockbuster failed because of us,
And someone else made millions off our work,
But we're ghosts,
And you said they know about us,
Someone finally recognized our work, and we just call it quits?
Huh?
Do it, no matter what,
But leave evidence at all costs,
Isn't that enough?
The new gig was unlike anything we've tackled before,
Who is she?
Her name is Lee Eun-chae,
She may look like an ordinary, social media-addicted college girl,
but she's not ordinary at all,
How so?
Her dad is social activist Lee Yong-chan, who holds a record for one-man protest,
A record? There's a record for protests?
Rain or shine, he's been protesting every day for over 9 months,
He's become quite a renowned social activist because of that,
Eun-chae was supposedly influenced heavily by her dad,
She became her major rep, joined the student council,
and engage in social service activities, and even the college president knew her,
Everyone knew she wanted to become the student president,
She was very active and popular at first,
but she became even more famous for her flame wars on the school forum,
[I'm Lee Eun-chae, [I wrote the post to,,,]
[Hah revealing your name here?]
[So, the climate crisis is my fault?]
[If you don't get it, study,]
[Pathetically ignorant,,,]
She's an attention whore,
She posts so much on Instagram, but no real friends,
She had one, but they had a falling out over a guy,
Huh, that's the friend?
So, what do we do with her?
The student election is two months away,
So?
We'll have to bait her like crazy until then,
Let's start with raising her followers and likes,
No comments just yet,
Don't be so forward, be natural,
I'll buy 1,000 fake Chinese accounts,
With what money?
And let's do it for real this time, If this goes south, we're in the red,

[Found this old photo!] [Too many photos to post ;)]

[I'll cheer for you!]

[Holy cow,,, I admire you, so pretty,]
[How are you so beautiful?]
[Goddess,,,]
[Stunning and beautiful,]
[World is improving thanks to people like you,]
[How do you maintain such a warm heart?]
[You're becoming more beautiful,]
[Absolutely stunning,]
"You're bussin' and vibin' with no cap,,,"
What kind of bullshit is that?
It's a compliment,
How the hell is that a compliment?
It's slang from a popular chick gossip site,
You pretended to be hard at work, and surfed the web instead?
I was researching,
Why are you researching on a gossip site?
Morons,
How else should I research? On the street?
I stopped writing altogether and waited for Eun-chae to respond,
Damn, she really is an attention whore, [Wow, thank you :)]
And she started responding not long after that, [I'm not perfect either]
[Thank you!!!]
[Thanks,,, :3]

Plaster this with the title "Korea U goddess" everywhere,
Chick and dick gossip sites, doesn't matter, just link her social,
Isn't that a bit much and all too sudden?
What is?
What if she clues in and goes dark?
Guys, she'll never sus,
She was raised by a single dad after their divorce,
and she's doing all these social stuff because she's begging for daddy's approval,
She's desperate for recognition, I bet she's too drunk with attention,
We got a psychoanalyst,
I know girls like her too well,
Trust me and follow my lead,

Shit, the vibe changes instantly,
Holy shit!
What the hell!
It's happening!
I told you it would work!
What was the goal?
Stopping her from becoming the student president?
Ruin her political future altogether?
No, I bet she would've lost even if she tried,
Our target was never Lee Eun-chae,
We wanted Lee Yong-chan to stop his one-man protest,
Her dad,
He was protesting against defamation laws,
When she was getting bullied, we wanted her to file defamation lawsuits,
To show that he'll use those laws when he's cornered,
that's what we wanted,
You know that factual defamation is different from defamation, right?
Of course,
But that's not important to people,
Then why didn't you go after him, wouldn't that be a sure thing?
Right,
But Lee Yong-chan had no online presence,
So, targeting his daughter was the only way,
[Stop boasting so much,]
[Girl, go easy,]
[Does she think she's a celeb?]
Hey,
Stop phubbing, it's too late for that,
So, did she sue?
No,
She killed herself,
And Lee stopped his protest,
Dude, why is she dead?
I told you this would happen,
I told you to go easy,
When did you?
Are you saying that she died because of us?
Why else would she be dead?
How do you know she died because of what we did?
Who the hell knows?
If this article goes out, it's going to get ugly, [My deepest condolences,,,]

Yes,
That's why I like you,

This is your evidence?
You don't believe anything you see online?
In the name of keeping the media on a leash, we bought media outlets because newspapers sold,
And with the internet coming online, we bought telecommunications,
Very ignorant move,
We couldn't escape our elite mentality,
We underestimated the world, but got sucker punched by a middle schooler,
Back then,,,
we were scared, and worried,,,

What's with you?
This happened because you looked down on the world,

you did that to hide the fact that you're a retard,

I didn't know it'd turn out like this,

- I wanted to ask you something, - Me?
I should've called you before,
Do you work for Manjun now?
Oh, yes, I'm in the Manjun PR team,
You didn't hear?
You didn't get reinstated,,,
That article I wrote about Manjun,
it was never a false article?
I guess I'm a real salaryman now,
I finally realize how scary journalists are,

What's up?
Come over here,
Take a look at this,
What's this?
This is about us,
Did he post this?
So, how much of this is real?
I don't know how much of it was real,
There's something he said,
"Truth mixed with lies feels more real than the real truth,"
But why post this on a used home theater marketplace?
Most of its users are men in their 40s and up
with expensive hobbies and plenty of disposable income,
They're nuts about topics concerning political and economic issues,
Have you verified the informant's ID?
No, it's not verified,
Why are you so confident then?
No way, take it back,
I want to dig into this properly,
Please give me some support, I'm begging you,
You're more brazen than I heard,
It's a good story with a nice hook too,
But that alone makes you a novelist,

Shit, how could he,,,

[Is the writer still alive?]
Hey,
Why did he post that?
He's trying to fuck us, right? To fuck me over,
No,,,
He posted it before the fallout,
Before he came back,
He has never turned off his phone before,
Can't reach him?
No, I think something happened to him,
Shit,,,
Didn't he say they know about us?
What do we do now?
Should we expose everything to the media?

Yes, I've received an anonymous tip,
I've been told that there's an internal team that handles public opinion,
Is this true?
Your name is Lim Sang-jin, correct?
Yes,

I haven't verified that yet,

There are some unverified things,
If we publish it like this, we're showing them our hands,
So, write whatever you verified,

Yes, Mr, Lim,
- We're going to press, - Right now?
No, it'll go online overnight first,
then front-page headline, and pages 4 and 5 in the morning,
I see,,,
You don't sound excited at all,
No, it's just that our methods will be shown in full,
I was worried that there will be copycats,
I guess we can't write about crimes in that respect,

Truth mixed with lies feels more real than the real truth,
There is no truth in the perfect lie, but if the truth is mixed with a lie,
a lie is mixed with the truth,
and if it's not a perfect lie, then it's the truth,
In other words, it's not all lies,
I did not stop digging for the follow-up,
The first clue in my investigation wasn't a problematic post or a web novel,
The username that Lee told me was an online meme,
A Japanese game company poorly translated a line in their game,
and exported to the US,
In doing so, the final boss said a grammatically incorrect phrase,
which became an infamous meme,
This happened in North America in the early 2000s,
