YouTube Channel 30THC.

A new channel with only two videos uploaded.

Both videos are fan-made versions that parody Hallyu star Chae Seo-yoon’s CFs with mad movies.

└This is real…

└How much did you burn on CG costs?

└How are the graphics better than ‘that movie’ that burned 200 million per second with CG?

└Isn’t this a plagiarized composite? It doesn’t make sense to say it was made from scratch.

If you convert the cost of fan video production into money, how much would the CG cost?

What kind of person does he/she do?

Is it an individual or a group?

And so, various speculations were rampant.

However, there are parts that viewers unanimously agree on.

└30THC is a true fan of Chae Seo Yoon

└If you convert this into money, it’s at least several billion won.

└Isn’t this crazy?

The number of views for the first video was approaching 10 million.

Part 2 also barely surpassed 2 million.

└If you look at the quality, the second part is overwhelmingly better than the first, but the editing concept overlaps so much that it seems like people are just not watching it.

└I had fun

└It’s true that the second part was more challenging

└I’m a current CG worker, and I’m frustrated right now with fan videos that are turning the CG we created over the course of several months and spending billions of won into a mishmash…

└Part 3 is up. What are you all doing without watching Part 3?

└There are only two episodes that come up.

└It’s uploaded to the Pintree official website, so go and check it out quickly.

└Really?

Viewers hurriedly moved to the Finetree YouTube homepage.

Indeed, a new video was uploaded to the Pintree homepage.

A CF featuring polar bears and Chae Seo-yoon.

[Creativeby30THC]

Seo Yoon is wearing a bright one-piece dress as if she went on a spring outing, hugging a large polar bear.

Rolling around,

It’s fun to climb up and have fun.

A wide and magnificent glacier.

A dazzling sun illuminating the horizon.

There is no dialogue and only a gentle accompaniment flows,

It was a beautiful visual that caught the viewer’s attention.

└The graphics are really amazing…

└Is this all CG? It doesn’t feel like it was created at all?

└I really thought they filmed this in the Arctic with polar bears;;;

└Something is wrong. My heart is pounding, but I can’t explain it…

The polar bear video resonated deeply with fans and viewers.

It was such a beautiful visual.

└You’re a true fan of Chae Seo-yoon. If Chae Seo-yoon were a polar bear, I’d be crazy.

└But isn’t that something that can be found by Googling?

└Is it you?

└Your agency is doing a good job and you are collaborating quickly.

└The one who’s really good at it is 30THC. Didn’t they make the Chae Seo Yoon fan video for promotion in the first place?

└How much did the polar bear video cost?

└The original video of the polar bear has been uploaded to the 30THC channel. Go and watch it quickly. It’s awesome (link)

└Original video? Are you saying that this isn’t the original from the Pintree official website?

Viewers flocked to the 30THC channel.

Indeed, there was a newly uploaded polar bear video,

The thumbnail and playback time were completely different from the Pintree official website video.

Chae Seo-yoon’s clothes were different, and the content was different too.

Seo-yoon, wearing a thick Eskimo fur coat, approaches the fallen polar bear cub.

The face revealed when the fur hat is removed exudes CG-like beauty.

After feeding the starving polar bear cub, the cub comes to its senses and licks Chae Seo-yoon’s hand.

The two became close friends in an instant,

Polar bears become adults in no time.

Seo-yoon’s appearance wearing a thick Eskimo fur coat felt more realistic than the Pintree official home version.

And then the time of separation came.

When an adult polar bear reaches maturity, it leaves to find a mate to breed.

Swim through the cold sea and cross the glacier.

No matter how far I wander around the iceberg, I never see another polar bear.

The lonely sleeping polar bear looks like it is thinking of Seo-yoon while separated from him.

The lyrical music suddenly stops.

The entire glacier shakes as it changes to magnificent music.

A giant spaceship is reflected in the pupil of a polar bear that raises its head.

The door of the spaceship, which was suspended in midair, defying gravity, opened.

When Seo-yoon appears wearing an Eskimo fur coat, a polar bear runs towards her in joy.

A beauty and a polar bear are entangled in each other and express their longing.

The polar bear follows Chae Seo-yoon into the spaceship.

A spaceship crossing the Arctic Ocean stops at a giant iceberg, and the door opens.

As Chae Seo-yoon gets off, another polar bear that was guarding the spaceship runs towards her happily.

The polar bear that came with them at the entrance of the spaceship quietly watched them and then ran towards them.

The polar bear that was tangled with Chae Seo-yoon finally recognizes the other polar bear.

Chae Seo-yoon, please stay out of my way quietly.

The two polar bears sniff each other and then hug each other with their thick forepaws.

Chae Seo-yoon enters the spaceship again,

The spaceship sets off in search of another isolated polar bear,

The video has ended.

The number of views skyrocketed in an instant.

The number of and comments also went up steadily.

There was only one reaction of amazement.

Occasionally, there are comments that are burning with time and passion, but they disappear in an instant after being hit with negative feedback and a barrage of reports.

└Isn’t this actually filmed in the Arctic with a polar bear?

└Teacher, how can I get a sponsorship for a spaceship from an alien?

└Chae Seo Yoon’s visuals are really crazy

The comments that received overwhelming recommendations and were placed at the top represented the minds of the users.

└Is this a promotional trailer for Chae Seo-yoon’s new movie?

【Current appreciation points are 20 million.】

Phew, you finished it without any trouble.

【You have completed the quest.】

【One model slot is given.】

【Current Slot 1/3】

【Registered Model: Chae Seo-yoon】

Real people can only appear if they are registered in the model slot.

Creating a completely virtual character doesn’t consume any model slots.

They say that fictional characters cannot be used as lead roles.

Not yet.

【If you unlock the unlimited NPC function, you can have virtual characters appear without restrictions.】

‘Oh, that’s tricky. Just do it.’

【This app complies with the company’s video production ethics.】

Anyway, what I’m saying is to work hard to collect appreciation points.

Please film diligently so that many people can see it.

‘Now we have the conditions for generating profit.’

Number of videos, number of subscribers, viewing time.

The minimum requirements have been met.

I think it’s time to decide on the direction of the channel.

‘What is most important to me?’

Of course, after completing the video app tutorial, you can unlock all the features.

Even though it’s a tutorial version, it produces a ridiculous quality video with just a few ‘brain clicks’.

Looking at the comments from current video professionals,

Chae Seo-yoon and the Polar Bear episode required the best CG experts to work day and night for at least 6 months, pouring in their time and soul.

The appreciation points increase as people come to ‘my space’ to see it.

So the current viewing points and the total number of views on YouTube are the same.

【You have completed the 1st stage of the tutorial quest.】

【Start the 2nd stage quest.】

【Create cumulative profits of 100 million won or more.】

【Period: Unlimited】

Is this a quest to leave the village, hunt, and earn money?

‘If you have 500,000 subscribers, wouldn’t it be easy to earn 100 million won? They say that a YouTuber with 500,000 subscribers is a walking mid-sized company.’

I don’t spend a single penny on video production, so I’m in an incredibly advantageous position.

But what kind of video should I make now?

I became famous with the 3rd Chae Seo-yoon video, but I can’t just do something like a sketch comedy out of the blue.

I studied a little bit,

More important than the quality of the video were the channel’s identity and direction.

If it’s cooking, it’s cooking, if it’s music, it’s music, and if it’s web comedy, it’s web comedy.

It shouldn’t become a hodgepodge channel with lost identity.

But until a month ago, I had never even thought about working in the video industry.

I’ve never written anything, and all I do is watch whatever dramas or movies are popular.

How can I make money cost-effectively with video apps at this point?

[We accept CG outsourcing.]

[We will reward you with the best graphic quality and fast processing time.

Unit price is negotiated based on customer requirements and work time.]

As soon as I posted the notice, comments poured in like a storm.

Congratulations to everyone, I hope everything goes well, it was full of good words.

└A giant dinosaur in this miserable habitat

A comment that makes me want to click recommend without realizing it.

But I held it in.

Pintree Entertainment.

Team 1 office.

Team leader Park Se-jin was receiving an absurd complaint from a close film director.

“I’m really sad. Is this how it is? Chae Seo-yoon said she would appear in my movie first after her break. That’s why I waited while diligently cutting the storyboard. ”

“Director Kim, what are you talking about?”

“There’s no need to be embarrassed.”

“No, I’m just being sarcastic, there aren’t any works currently being cast.”

“Then what’s the new trailer?”

“New trailer?”

“Wait a minute.”

After a while, director Kim Jeong-won played a video on his phone.

Team leader Park Se-jin was left dumbfounded after watching it to the end.

Kim Jeong-won spoke with high spirits.

“That’s a new promotional trailer. I didn’t hear that you went into cranking, but when were you filming it without anyone knowing?”

“No, what is this… .”

“It looks like Chungmuro is quiet, so you worked overseas from start to finish? It’s tight security, tight.”

“This is the first time I’ve heard this story. Director Kim, wait.”

Team leader Park Se-jin called in Chae Seo-yoon’s dedicated manager, Kim Gyeong-wook.

“Team Leader, this is a video promoting the protection of polar bears.”

“What? Really?”

“Yes. Seo-yoon is passionate about protecting polar bears. That’s why she made a non-profit promotional video.”

Director Kim Jeong-won’s eyes lit up when he learned of the situation.

“So you’re saying that you made a Hollywood blockbuster trailer-level video for free just because of your fandom?”

“Yes.”

“What on earth are you guys doing?”

“The above YouTube channel is… .”

Director Kim Jeong-won, who found out about the original channel, searched through the channel and found it.

“CG outsourcing?”
