Chapter 1: Rebirth of Korea
"Lee Sang-hyuk, Lee Sang-hyuk, wait a minute!!" At Gwangju Science High School in South Korea, students left the campus in groups after school in the afternoon, and a girl with a ponytail in a ponytail shouted out of breath at the door of the third class of the second year. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"What's the matter?" Lee Sang-hyuk turned around and frowned slightly, and what caught his eye was a handsome and delicate face, which was not inferior to the beautiful men in those idol groups that were currently on fire.
The girl was obviously also shaken by such a handsome face, and said in a somewhat cramped tone for a while: "You, you haven't joined the club yet, I'm the class leader, everyone else already has a club, and our class is just one of you." ”
When Lee Sang-hyuk heard this, he put the shoulder bag he was carrying on his shoulder, turned around and waved his hand back, "I'm sorry, I have something to do after school, and I don't have time to join the club." ”
The girl with the ponytail was so anxious that she stomped her feet when she heard this, and she didn't know what to say.
A few boys in the class passed by and happened to see this scene, one of them was relatively tall, a boy named Cui Jingzhe said to the girl with a ponytail with some resentment: "Xiujing, don't care about him, look at the way he drags, he is the champion of the National Mathematics Olympiad, he must be busy studying." ”
When Zheng Xiujing heard this, she suddenly thought that the boy in front of her who left with a shoulder bag was a top student in the school, and every time he spoke in front of the student representative in front of the whole school since high school, he couldn't help but say in a slightly sneering tone: "But, but... ”
Choi Kyung-chul pushed a chubby boy next to him, and the chubby boy named Kim Dong-min immediately said to Zheng Xiujing: "Okay, Xiujing, today is the day when Brother Watch debuts the new MAD, let's hurry up and go to the video store." ”
Cui Jingzhe also immediately echoed: "Yes, Xiujing, Brother Watch is known as the strongest jungler in OGN this year, and his MAD starter must be very popular, don't you like Brother Watch very much, if you go late, there will be no more!" ”
Jung so-jung looked at Lee Sang-hyuk's back and obviously hesitated for a while, but finally decided to buy the new MAD of the Watch first.
Lee Sang-hyuk obviously heard what a few classmates said in the back, and couldn't help touching his nose with a wry smile in his heart, an inexplicable crossing in his previous life when he lost his soul and let him come to a parallel world with roughly the same layout as the world in his previous life, what he didn't expect was that he actually crossed into a high school bully Lee Sang-hyuk in South Korea with the same name as him, the difference is that in his previous life, he was a complete scumbag, for some kind of ridiculous e-sports dream, he dropped out of high school in high school despite the opposition of his family and plunged into the e-sports circle with enthusiasm, The only thing to be thankful for is that he does have some talent, and he quickly reached the pinnacle of all esports players of the same period with his extraordinary awareness and operation, and then just before he was about to win the championship in the Series S Finals, he suddenly heard the sad news that his father had died of a heart attack because he had not returned home for a long time.
At that moment, he remembered a lot of childhood pictures, unlike other Chinese families, their family was a single-parent family, his parents divorced when he was three years old, he followed his father, and his father was obedient to him when he was a child, taking care of him as much as possible. The only time he decided to drop out of school to play e-sports, was severely opposed by his father, at that time he was in the period of youth and rebellion, felt that his father's views were old-fashioned, and resolutely slammed the door and left home after negotiating a contract with a club, he always remembers the moment he left home, his father's eyes did not fluctuate when he looked at him, but he understood the disappointment inside.
So he trained harder than other players in the days when he joined the e-sports circle in his previous life, and when he got tired of playing the RANK of the national server, he went to play Hanbok, and soon, several of the top ten of the national service and Hanbok RANK were his trumpets, and the ID at the top of the list of the Chinese and South Korean servers was the eternal smile, which was the ID of his career.
And he did all this for one purpose, to prove to his father that I was right and you were wrong.
On the eve of the S-series finals, after hearing the news of his father's death, he silently packed up his salute and left in the dormitory. A person walking in despair on a strange city street, his mind is full of what he has done in the past few years of playing e-sports, so cute, prove? Who can he prove to now?
When he was most frustrated in his life, an inexplicable and wonderful time travel brought him to this parallel world of South Korea, and crossed over to a high school student named Lee Sang-hyuk, who may have his own providence in the dark, in this life he still lives in a single-parent family with only his father, the only difference is that in this life he also has a sister named Li Meier, whose father's name is Lee Dong-in, a very ordinary supermarket warehouse manager, like all bloody Korean dramas, His beautiful mother disliked his father's poverty and divorced his father and remarried when he and his sister were very young. For so many years, my father has been pulling the brother and sister with his meager salary. Another difference is that in this life, he is the pride of his father.
It took him about a month to get used to life here, and he soon found that the Korean e-sports industry in the parallel world was not only still developed, but also somewhat more developed than he imagined.
Koreans in this life are very disgusted with the term "computer games" because in their eyes, esports is a very serious industry. The industry brings billions of dollars in economic gains to South Korea every year, with a large number of well-paid professional players whose popularity is no less than that of sports entertainment stars. The South Korean government even has a dedicated department for game management, with a large number of well-paid professional players and more than 25,000 active employees. Many Koreans have the faces of famous professional gamers printed on their credit cards. Every time they compete, the contestants will be dressed up by makeup artists backstage, and the host and fans in the audience are eagerly waiting for their appearance. Not only that, but there are 95 secondary specialized schools in South Korea, including a game professional school that specializes in game engineering and related courses.
In this life, some well-known media platforms in South Korea and MBC, SBS and other TV stations will broadcast some large-scale e-sports matches in prime time, and professional players have a reputation that is not inferior to that of entertainment stars and sports stars, and they can get rich remuneration by endorsing products or releasing MAD (highlights of individual operations in ordinary games or competitions, by editing the first songs of well-known singers as background music, and co-selling them in a form similar to albums).
Like Zheng Xiujing just said, Watch is the rising jungler at the OGN Masters, the highest league in South Korea this summer, because of his handsome appearance and strong personal ability in the game, he became famous overnight, and after the operation of the club after the summer game, he quickly contacted Kwon Zhilong, the captain of the current popular Korean group BIGBANG, and tailored an original BGM for his MAD and released it at the same time.
Thinking that today is the first day of the Watch album, Lee Sang-hyuk couldn't help but tighten his bag and quicken his pace, he still has a part-time job in the video store.
When Lee Sang-hyuk arrived at the video store not far from his home, he found that there was already a long queue outside the door, and many students after school were still joining in, so he quickly entered through the side door and changed into a clerk's costume in front of the locker.
"Sanghyuk, you're finally here, come and help me, your aunt and I are dying, and that kid Zhicheng is hiding in the inner room playing games, and he can't scream." The owner of the video store is named Park Seok-beom, an uncle about 40 years old, with a gentle personality, because the family lives not far away, so he knows the situation of Lee Sang-hyuk's family, and after he entered high school, he added a part-time job in the store, which is equivalent to indirectly reducing some of the burden on his father.
"Okay, I'll do it." Lee Sang-hyuk hurriedly responded, turned his head and looked back at Park Ji-sung, who was hiding in the inner room to play games, but remembered himself in his previous life, and couldn't help laughing for a while, shook his head and walked over.
Lee Sang-hyuk's main job is to add some star albums or professional players' MAD from the warehouse to the shelves, but today's MAD of Watch debuted, and many of his fans or Kwon Ji-ryong's fans came to buy it, so the MAD called WatchShow on the counter in front of the door is in short supply, and he has to go to the warehouse from time to time to replenish it, and his aunt Kim Ok-sook is also busy in front of the cash register.
Lee Sang-hyuk was taking out a box of albums from the warehouse and preparing to place them on the counter in front of the door, but he unexpectedly found several familiar figures in the long queue in front of the door, which were Zheng Xiujing and several boys in the same class.
"I told you to hurry up, you see, the video stores around the school are all sold out, so we have to travel so far to buy it, do you know how popular Brother Watch is now?" Choi Kyung-chul looked at the long queue in front of him and complained anxiously to the chubby Kim Dongmin.
Kim Dongmin looked at Zheng Xiujing with some depression, but found that the class leader was covering his mouth and snickering.
"Look, is that Lee Sang-hyuk?" A boy named Lee Young-jae who was traveling with him suddenly spotted Lee Sang-hyuk who was placing goods on the counter in front of the video store.
"Well, it's him, hmph, I said why didn't he participate in club activities, it turned out that he used his free time to secretly make money here, not a high-achieving student, and his brain is better than ours." Choi Kyung-chul said sarcastically pointing to Lee Sang-hyuk, who was busy with his head down.
"You, don't say that, in case there is any difficulty in other people's homes." Jung so-kyung obviously has a good impression of Lee Sang-hyuk, and defended him: "By the way, I remember seeing Lee Sang-hyuk on the student registration form at the beginning of the school seems to be a single-parent family!" ”
Choi Kyung-chul was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't want to say anything more.
Lee Sang-hyuk naturally knows what they are pointing at, but in this life, he doesn't care about the opinions of a group of high school students. After a month of adaptation, he finally determined his goal in this life, which is very simple, since God let him cross over to a scholar and become his father's pride. Then he tried his best to make up for the regrets of his previous life to maintain his father's pride.
Zheng Xiujing and her party left quickly after buying MAD, without any words. However, Zheng Xiujing looked like she wanted to talk when she bought MAD, which made Lee Sang-hyuk quite funny.
As twilight fell, the number of people in front of the video store gradually decreased, and finally when Lee Sang-hyuk announced that the last MAD was sold out, a few people who had not bought MAD left with regret.
Park Zhicheng walked out of the inner room at this time, and his tone was full of excitement and clenched his fist at Lee Sang-hyuk, who was cleaning up the shelves, and said, "Brother, I just finally hit the silver rank, haha!" ”
Lee Sang-hyuk couldn't cry or laugh in his heart when he heard this, but when he saw Park Seok-beom walking from behind Park Ji-sung, he couldn't help but look at Park Ji-sung with a happy smile on his face.
Park Ji-sung saw that Lee Sang-hyuk's face was wrong, but he self-righteously patted his forehead and said, "Oh, I almost forgot, brother, you don't play this game, Assi!" It's a shame. ”
Park Seok-bum suddenly grabbed Park Zhicheng's ear from behind: "Stinky boy, swear again, it's a pity, what's a pity, your brother is a top student at Gwangju Science High School, when will you have half of your brother's chance, your father and I will be satisfied!" ”
"What! I said that I wasn't the material for reading, how could I be the same as my brother. And Dad, didn't you say last time that you would support me to play professionally! Park Zhicheng was very dissatisfied and broke free from the hand that was pulling his ears.
"I want to support you, but you're that material, you're still far from the level of playing professionally, and no one wants to go to other clubs as trainees!" Park Seok-bum knocked a chestnut on Park Ji-sung's head.
"Wow, it hurts, Dad, you hit me again, didn't I say I would work hard"! Park Ji-sung touched the head that had just been knocked out, and jumped to his feet very dissatisfied.
Lee Sang-hyuk looked at the father and son in front of him who were playing casually, and a warm feeling surged in his heart, thinking of his father and sister who were waiting for him to eat at home, and interrupted: "Uncle, I have sorted out the shelves, and I will go back first if there is nothing to do." ”
"Okay, be careful on the road, you don't have to rush to come so early tomorrow, Science High School is our best high school, and the academics are not light, so you must write your homework first." Park Seok-bum instructed with concern.
"Got it, uncle, then I'll go first." Lee Sang-hyuk took out his clothes from the locker and changed them into.
Winter in Gwangju was not too early, and Lee Sang-hyuk arrived home with pork belly bought from a roadside hot food shop and a bottle of soju, which he had specially prepared for his father.
After opening the door with the key and entering the room, my father was crouching in front of the desk and carefully registering the goods table in the warehouse. Her younger sister Li Meier sat on the simple sofa in front of the TV, bored and waiting for the meal to start.
"Brother, you're finally back, I'm starving to death, did you bring anything delicious today?" Hearing the sound of the door opening, Li Meier perked up, turned her head and saw Lee Sang-hyuk walking in, and hurriedly got up and ran over.
"No, I just bought a bottle of soju for my dad." Lee Sang-hyuk deliberately put his left hand behind his back and shook the soju with his right hand.
"Hmph, I don't believe it!" Li Mei'er suddenly quickly walked around Lee Sang-hyuk's back, snatched the fast food box containing pork belly, and said proudly.
"You! Hurry up and wash your hands and call Dad to get ready for dinner. Lee Sang-hyuk rubbed Lee Mei'er's head a little dotingly and said.
"I hate it, I'm in the third year of junior high school this year, brother, you're only two years older than me, don't touch my head!" Lee Mi-ah said dissatisfiedly avoiding Lee Sang-hyuk's hand.
During the meal, his father casually asked about Lee Sang-hyuk's studies at school, but he still stared at the record sheet that had been transferred to the table-
, thinking about something.
"Dad, have you been busy with work lately?" Lee Sang-hyuk couldn't help asking.
"Ha, look at me, eat" Li Dongren raised his head and paused, and suddenly came to his senses and said: "I'm not very busy, isn't your sister about to go to high school, I took another part-time job to sort out the front desk record sheet, thinking that I can earn more and make a budget in advance for you and your sister's tuition." ”
"Oh." Lee Sang-hyuk responded, but there was something unpleasant in his heart.
"Look, brother, it's a piglet! Wow, that's amazing! Li Meier, who had been staring at the TV, suddenly shouted.
Lee Sang-hyuk looked up and was a little surprised to find that SBS radio was broadcasting various lists of the most popular e-sports event League of Legends Hanbok at the moment, and now it happened to be broadcast to ADC Wayne in the hero rankings, and the professional player piglet, known as the first Wayne in Hanbok, was operating Wayne to complete all kinds of extreme kills in the game. The familiar sound effects of kills came out of the TV, and for a moment, Lee Sang-hyuk seemed to feel something in his blood.
Then the screen turned, and the radio station gave a very fair statistical table of the winning rate used by the high-level Wayne of the Hanbok. At the top of the list is the IDpiglet just now.
"What is the Yibai after the ID, and how is it the same name as the mineral water we usually drink." Lee Sang-hyuk asked with some confusion.
"Brother, you're so old-fashioned, that's a sponsor, now many professional players on this list are endorsing a certain brand, piglet is the first in Hanbok! Yibai Enterprise also spent a high endorsement fee to invite him, which is worthy of my favorite pig, hehe! Speaking of her idol, Li Meier immediately became a little frowning and said.
"Oh, that's kind of interesting." Lee Sang-hyuk said thoughtfully, watching Lee Mi-ah look adoring the player on TV who still had a childish face, and he couldn't help but feel the influence of e-sports on its people in this parallel world of South Korea.
"Why do you like little hairy boys like piglet, those girls in our class like beautiful boys like Watch!" Lee Sang-hyuk said to Lee Mi-a with some jokingness.
"I hate it, I'm not allowed to call my idol little hairy boy, he's very powerful, hum, what's so good about Watch, isn't it handsome, hum, no matter how handsome he is, can he be more handsome than his brother." Li Meier said very dissatisfied.
"Well, I see." Li Xianghyuk touched his face a little speechless and said.
According to the memories left by the previous owner of this body, as early as when he was in junior high school, he would receive invitations from scouts from various entertainment companies when he walked down the street.
It's just that the previous owner of this body was an out-and-out nerd, and he had no interest in going to an entertainment company as a trainee or anything.
After the meal, his sister cleaned up the table very sensibly, Lee Sang-hyuk was responsible for washing the dishes and chopsticks, and his father was still working in front of the desk, but the room with few words was full of warmth that Lee Sang-hyuk had not felt in his previous life.
The moment he returned to the room, he looked at his father's tired face under the light, and his younger sister who was doing his homework while doing his homework because there was no heating, and Lee Sang-hyuk secretly made a certain decision in his heart.
