AwakeningAmidst the silence that engulfed the studio.
"Alright, that concludes the introduction of our terrifying new recruit! A new season! A fresh game begins!"
Park Haneul raised his voice with renewed vigor to deliver his lines.
"They say a provocative newcomer has joined,
but don't our existing streamers have their pride too?
Everyone, come on out!"
Dazzling lights flooded the studio.
Female streamers blew kisses toward the cameras as they strutted forward.
Their plunging bra tops and suffocatingly tight miniskirts fluttered provocatively.
They lined up beside me.
...Hmph.
The cameras captured their awkwardly enhanced chests—souls scraped bare—and gaunt figures that looked carved from bone.
Those who saw the full-body shots on the monitors stiffened and instinctively took a step back from me.
What exactly do those girls have over me?
...Nothing.
"This season's total crew funding goal is 10 million Balloons!"
Park Haneul's shriek nearly tore through the microphone.
"The overall top performer gets a 100 million cash Incentive!
The bottom three will face head-shaving penalties, bare-faced outdoor broadcasts, and expulsion next season!"
The studio froze.
The penalty severity had skyrocketed compared to last season.
Now I see why the contract only mentioned Incentives.
Bastard.
***
"Now, before we officially begin—last season's top performer, Suyeon-nim."
Park Haneul flashed his trademark smarmy grin as he handed her the mic.
"What do you think of our new recruit Wolha-nim? Feeling a little nervous?"
Lee Suyeon's lips curled slightly.
"Aigoo, our newbie looks so fresh and pretty. But oh dear~
Our regular viewers have e~xtremely high standards, you know?"
Her eyes raked me up and down.
"Being a female streamer isn't just about looks~"
She smiled sweetly into the mic.
"I'm worried our rookie might just become background decor since she doesn't know broadcasting yet.
I'll have to help her out a lot."
Her icy eyes betrayed her honeyed words.
Park Haneul played along with exaggerated enthusiasm.
"Whoa! Now that's first-class grace!
Wow, Wolha-nim. How about this warm senior guidance?
Glad you joined our company, right?"
The mic was shoved toward my face.
"...I'm truly grateful to CEO Park Haneul."
"Huh? What do you—?"
"Having someone who cares for me like this,
while intentionally surrounding me with so many... less capable colleagues...
I think I'll be very comfortable here."
Park Haneul's eyes bulged.
"...Whoa!! Rookie's got fire!"
"But when's break time? I'm kinda tired. Hweueung..."
I stretched lazily against the chair with a sleepy sigh.
The taut fabric across my chest strained dangerously, threatening to burst.
Suyeon's face flushed crimson.
***
The moment the camera lights died, the girls stampeded toward the dressing room.
Probably scrambling to avoid comparisons with me.
Maybe trying to manufacture nonexistent souls?
When I sauntered in leisurely, Suyeon—now with noticeably inflated breasts—approached me.
"Wolha-yah~ Thought you'd suck at streaming, but you've got mouth skills?
But why were you still a Hakko until now?"
Her murderous glare contradicted her playful tone.
"Oops. Didn't mean to call you Hakko, did I?"
I would've bowed my head meekly just moments ago.
This girl was just sweating bullets stuffing pads into her bra earlier.
And she's coming at me?
"Unnie, I'm really touched you worry about me."
"Huh? Uh... good you noticed."
"But unnie, what exactly did you stuff in your chest?"
"...What?"
"They got way bigger suddenly compared to the opening. Never tried those myself—
if you know good ones, share the secret?"
The dressing room fell silent.
Every streamer fixing their makeup froze mid-motion.
Suyeon trembled speechlessly.
***
"Alright! All records from last season have been reset!"
Center stage.
Park Haneul's voice boomed again.
"Time to test our Dark Horse first!
Let's begin Wolha-nim's 'Debut Approval Vote' funding event!
Goal: 100k Balloons! Fail and you're packing for home today!"
A dedicated Excel panel appeared behind me.
You never mentioned this part.
But 100k? At 100 won per Balloon... 10 million won.
...Can I do this?
No—I must.
"By the way, Wolha-nim."
"Yes?"
"Chat says you got banned across all platforms."
Here we go.
"Rumor says it was for compensated dating. True?"
I couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity.
No tact whatsoever.
Giggles erupted from the other streamers behind me.
Smiling sweetly into the mic, I responded:
"Compensated dating? Me?"
I stared directly into the camera lens.
"First, I've never been banned.
Just taking a break to focus on this broadcast."
My gaze locked onto the live feed camera.
"If I got banned without warning... must've been for being too sexy.
Guess we'll find out if that rumor's true today."
Adjusting the mic slightly, I glanced at Park Haneul.
"But is that okay? If it's true, won't this place get banned too?"
Park Haneul blinked rapidly.
But as a veteran in this industry, he quickly recovered with a smirk.
"Impressive mental fortitude. Great! Next topic!"
Simultaneously, the monitor's chat exploded.
[Iron mentality lol]
[She owned Haneul lolol]
Balloons began pouring in.
"Oh, chat's heating up.
You know that's all thanks to me, right?"
"Hmm was it? Though I don't recall you mentioning this during contract talks..."
Park Haneul coughed awkwardly and changed subjects.
"Ahem, let's move on.
Honestly though—where'd you get your boob job?
Makes no sense with that waist?"
I could feel the other streamers' daggers in my back.
"Surgery? They're natural."
I shrugged lightly.
"Too bad I can't let you touch them to check."
Crossing my arms, I lifted my chest slightly.
"You can compare during the dance segment later.
Your eyes will tell you who's had work done."
Balloons flooded in like crazy.
***
In the dressing room, I pulled the mic close to my lips.
Alright, let me show you your fantasies.
"Ah, ngh... just a sec."
I deliberately let out heavy breaths.
"Is this outfit kid-sized? My chest won't fit at all... haah."
The sound of straining fabric transmitted clearly through the mic.
"Zipper's stuck at my hips... oh, a button popped.
Should I just go out like this?"
Didn't need to check the monitor—chat was definitely exploding.
I stepped onto the stage clutching the barely-contained outfit.
The deliberately humiliating Kindergarten Uniform—unmodified for adults.
Who even picked this?
Probably meant to crush the newbie's spirit. How's that working out?
Not the picture you wanted, is it?
The tiny skirt barely contained my hips, riding up precariously,
while the stretched shirt gaped open to reveal deep cleavage.
The childish outfit now looked straight out of an adult broadcast.
"Incredible!
Our rookie absolutely owns even the costume!
Can't end it here, right?"
Park Haneul raised his mic excitedly.
"Commencing official evaluation! Music!"
A sultry beat filled the stage.
...Another unscripted segment.
"Hell Dance Medley begins!
Don't stop until donations end!"
"Wait, I'm not really—"
"Ayy~ Can't call yourself a female streamer if you can't dance! Viewers! Curious about our rookie's skills?"
[Go go]
[Can't dance? Learn~]
[Kindergarten dance go go go]
Even chat sided with Park Haneul.
Then a female streamer cut in from behind.
"Ayy dancing's basic! But CEO, will existing staff get evaluated too?"
"Ah~ Our veterans are already proven. Naturally..."
Just as relieved sighs escaped the other streamers—
"We will. Can't let our rookie take all the heat in this family company.
Feel free to join anytime!"
"Ooo!"
"First volunteer gets penalty immunity!"
"Ooh!"
So I'm the only one getting penalized this broadcast?
No choice.
I moved to the beat.
...Practiced beforehand but still awkward.
Arms flailed independently while legs missed beats.
Could hear the rhythm but my body refused to cooperate.
[LOL robot much]
[But her being pretty makes it cute hehe]
Donations kept coming.
3rd song.
Sweat dripped down my forehead.
But something felt off.
My body started syncing with the rhythm as songs changed.
Toes reacted instinctively, hips moving naturally.
5th song.
Shoulders relaxed as arms melted into the music.
Natural bounce under the kindergarten uniform with each movement.
[Huh?]
[Suddenly kinda good?]
[Heheung definitely natural]
7th song.
Tiny sweat beads formed on my bare, makeup-free face.
Breath came short.
But the smile never left my lips.
[Holy shit this is lewd]
[Panting while dancing is even more erotic;;]
My ragged breaths transmitted clearly through the mic.
10th song.
The dancing robot had vanished,
replaced by someone surrendering to the beat with slow, sensual waves.
Then another streamer invaded the stage behind me.
Outfit revealing more than it concealed, face straining with effort.
"Oh! Our dance ace Arin-nim! Joining for that benefit!"
Park Haneul cheered excitedly.
"Looks like Arin-nim's here to discipline our exhausted rookie—what'll happen?"
The music sped up.
Arin dropped to the floor, sweating profusely as she twerked violently.
This is their ace?
But even with my enhanced stamina, female form had limits.
Oh, playing that game?
Fine.
I slowly swayed to the beat, running fingers through my hair.
With a light wave, I popped another sweat-dampened shirt button.
"Aah, not the showdown we expected!"
The monitor showed a cruel contrast.
Arin's desperate twerking looked pitiful beside me.
Chat filled with mockery.
[Arin why you rubbing that spot RIP ㅠㅠ]
[So Arin did get work done]
[Getting wrecked by natural D-cups;;]
[Rookie's form is insane fr]
Arin's face burned crimson as she fled the stage.

***
"Wolha-nim! 20k balloons! Still far from 100k debut goal. Packing up?"
As the dance marathon ended, Park Haneul taunted my panting form.
Catching my breath, I stared into the lens.
"If I fail here, I'm quitting streaming..."
I licked my lips slowly.
"Don't you want to keep watching my broadcasts?
You know what to do."
Fingers teasing my tight skirt hem, I gave them a show.
Chat froze momentarily—then balloon donations exploded.
[Crazy bitch take my money!!!]
[Bank account ripped Nuna kill me]
[Voluntarily becoming a simp SALUTE]
30k. 50k.
Finally.
100k reached.
Turning back, I saw the other streamers' constipated expressions.
Smiled faintly.
"This enough?
Think I'll rest now—seems tiring."
[No reward?]
[Bitch took our money show something]
Pausing, I faced the camera again.
Fingers pinched the tight kindergarten skirt hem.
Lifted it to a dangerously high level for one second—
exposing pure white panty lines in full HD.
"Be satisfied with this for today."
Donation effects nearly crashed the servers.
