The Influencer (2024) s01e03 Episode Script

Episode 3

1
THE INFLUENCER
Excluding the survivors
and the eliminated from the first half,
the remaining 20 influencers
will prepare for the second half.
Let's go!
Let's do this.
Just keep doing you.
Don't try too hard to be something else.
The five survivors of the first half
may observe the second half
from the lounge.
Gosh, they must feel so nervous.
This is going to be intense.
Influencers,
once the second half begins,
survivors and eliminated contestants
will be determined
every five minutes.
People will survive
and get eliminated every five minutes.
It's going to be humiliating
and nerve-racking.
A good start is key
since I could get eliminated
every five minutes.
The influencer with the most viewers
will survive every five minutes,
while the one with the lowest viewers
will be eliminated at the same time.
I'm so scared.
Starting now,
the second half of Round 2 will begin.
Let's do this.
Five,
four,
-three, two,
-Let's go!
one.
Please start watching.

AFREECATV STREAMER & YOUTUBER
Come on, get hyped!
BBOGUMI
STREAMER & YOUTUBER
Hello, everyone.
Welcome.
Hello!
GVAN
DRAG ARTIS
Hello, everyone.
IAMKATIECUTIE
SHAMAN
I promise you this will be fun.
DOCTOR WHO
TIKTOK CREATOR
This is my last chance,
so I'll eat everything here.
Don't leave.
This outfit
usually gets me the most views.
MYBOO
COSPLAY CREATOR
I got more than
11 million views with this outfit,
so I hope it draws viewers in.
Welcome.
DAEDO
FIRST-GEN GAMING YOUTUBER
Thank you to the 2,866 viewers
tuning in right now.
Hello, this is Jang Keun-suk.
Unlike my live stream from the first half,
I'm going to try to match your energy
a bit more this time.
Hi, guys!
SIAJIWOO
TIKTOK CREATOR
Whenever I go live, so many fans tune in.
Welcome!
Please help me.
I'm back again.
JANG JI-SOU
CONTENT CREATOR
This is driving me crazy.
LOOKS LIKE YOU MADE I
I actually didn't make it
to the next round yet.
Since I didn't make it in the first half,
I didn't think I had a chance
in the second half.
I anticipated that having guests on
would help me a lot.
And yet, I still didn't make it
in the top five of the first half.
I wasn't confident
I'd do well by myself in the second half.
I was distraught.
I've been live streaming for seven years,
and this is my most stressful moment.
I'm begging everyone to stay
for just ten more minutes.
I've never begged like this
on a live stream before.
How was your day?
I'm sure you all made memories
in your own way.
I've tried doing live streams on YouTube
and also on Instagram.
I wasn't expecting to finish
in the top four,
but I thought I could at least
make it to fifth place.
That's what I thought,
but that wasn't the case.
And so, I tried to go all out
preparing for the second half,
but then I thought, "Wait a minute."
"I shouldn't burden
or stress out my followers
by being sad and looking down
about my situation."
I felt that I should just wrap up the day
together with my viewers.
So we took out all the props
and cleaned and organized the room.
I also asked
for warm and comfortable lighting
that would be perfect
for a drink at the end of the day.
I'll move around in my seat
during my live stream.
Good evening, everyone.
I'm glad you made it through the day.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK
I'm sorry for making you wait.
For my second live stream,
I wanted to share a drink
with all of you after a long day.
I brought this drink from home
for this occasion.
Let's cheers, everyone.
KANPAI
You made it through the day.
He really is a celebrity.
He has global viewers.
-What is it?
-What?
Wow.
-Who is it?
-What is it?
Oh my goodness.
-What's going on?
-Pyo Eun-ji is taking her clothes off.
What?
She has 2,300 viewers.
-She's wild.
-That's a lot of viewers.
-She has 2,300.
-She's doing a lookbook.
She does this often on her channel.
COME AND SEE SOMETHING NICE!
MY FIRST LIVE LOOKBOOK
Hello.
Hello, my name is Pyo Eun-ji.
I'm currently working as a model
in both Japan and Korea.
I have around 1.95 million subscribers
on YouTube.
Before I became a model,
I worked at an investment firm.
I know it's unexpected,
but I majored in accounting
and got a job in the field.
I'm someone
who feels like a girl next door,
but at the same time,
I mainly make sexy content.
So there's a twist.
Today, I'm going to do a live lookbook.
It's my first time doing this live.
I hope more viewers come!
Please join my stream!
For this live stream, I brought some ideas
from my lookbooks with the highest views.
But I wasn't sure how it would go
since this was my first live lookbook.
And for this round,
you need to draw viewers very quickly,
so I had to use my cheat code.
Thankfully, I got a lot of support
from my Taiwanese viewers.
I actually wore this not long ago.
A lot of people loved it.
One million views.
I wore this in a video
that got more than one million views.
Yes!
WHO GOES TO WORK LIKE THAT? LOL
Thank you, guys.
You guys are saving me.
You're keeping me alive in this round.
How do I look?
I LOVE I
WHERE DID ALL THESE PEOPLE COME FROM?
This is my office look.
A lot of people loved this look.
YOU LOOK AMAZING
SO PRETTY
Next.
Next.
She keeps getting more viewers.
What the heck?
The fortune telling stream
is doing so well.
Hello, everyone. Good to see you.
I'm Dohwadore,
and I'm here to tell your fortune.
Hello.
I'm a man who cares more
about your birthdate than your name.
I'm Dohwadore, and I'm a YouTuber.
If you search
"saju fortune telling" on YouTube,
you'll find me at the very top.
I was probably
the first YouTuber to teach people
how to tell their own fortunes.
I'm going to talk about love fortunes
since it's the start of the new year.
It's something everyone's curious about,
so I think this will keep me
from getting eliminated.
Love fortunes are very interesting.
My viewer count right now is 2,833.
Wake up, everyone.
Dohwadore is going to
talk about love fortunes.
Bring your grandparents, your parents,
and your exes to this stream.
I've figured out
some shocking events
that might happen in 2024
in terms of love fortunes.
And then I'll also tell you
who will be lucky lovers in 2024
and who will be either unlucky
or experience breakups.
Why is this important?
You need to find out
where you stand in both areas.
And that's because
there are two people in a relationship.
Let's say your fortune is good
but your partner is meant to break up.
What would happen then?
Share your thoughts in the comments.
WOULD ONE PERSON INITIATE A BREAKUP?
IT WOULD END BADLY?
That's right.
If your fortune is to date,
you might fall in love too easily
or fail to see red flags.
But if the other person
is meant to break up,
they'll be quicker to evaluate you.
Ultimately, you might end up
losing the upper hand in the relationship.
You should be aware of these things
so you can be a strategist
when it comes to relationships.
I'M SORRY
Hello, everyone.
I'm back.
Hello, I'm BBOGUMI, and I'm a streamer
who takes money from my male viewers
on Twitch and YouTube.
Hello, everyone.
I'm a girl too, okay?
Why can't you tell me I'm pretty?
I'm pretty, okay? Tell me I am!
Give me your money since I'm pretty!
SO SHINY
I'm so f annoyed.
My viewers love
to taunt and make fun of me.
That's why I'm going to try
to annoy my viewers.
I'll annoy them
and get punished for it in real time
by spinning a roulette with options
that aren't too inappropriate.
Let's spin the roulette right away.
What will it be?
COME ON, JUMP ROPE ON GRAVEL
RUBBING YOUR EYES WITH LEMON
Three, two, one.
THROW STRAWBERRY POWDER,
FLOUR, AND WATER MIXTURE ON FACE
"Mix strawberry powder, flour, and water
and throw it on your face."
I don't know how this will go.
Three, two, one.
LOL
YOU LOOK LIKE A HOPPFISH
If I still get eliminated,
I'm burning everything down.
DAEDO'S IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMEN
FOR 2024
More viewers need to come in
for me to survive.
That's why I've prepared
a lot of content for you today.
Yong-jin and PaniBottle
knew best how to play this game.
They teased a big announcement
or said they would delete their channel.
They raised the stakes.
I wanted to clickbait my viewers like them
by making a "big announcement."
The first big announcement I want to make
is that my fandom name
is no longer "DaeViewers"
and is now "DaeWarriors."
My fans will now be called "DaeWarriors."
IT REALLY IS A BIG ANNOUNCEMEN
Moving on to my next announcement.
In the middle of last year,
I announced my divorce.
We divorced on good terms.
I'm not seeking out a relationship,
but by the end of the year,
I might happen to be in one.
A SELF-REVEAL OMG
A PLANNED SCANDAL LOL
I might date someone. Who knows?
Continuing on
with another big announcement.
I suffer from severe rhinitis.
You may have noticed
that I sniffle quite a lot.
So I might get surgery for that this year.
THAT SURGERY TAKES JUST 20 MINUTES
A REALLY BIG ANNOUNCEMEN
IT MUST BE HARD TO COME UP WITH
BOGUS BIG ANNOUNCEMENTS
Everything I've said is true.
HOW MANY ANNOUNCEMENTS ARE THERE?
ARE THERE 10 MORE LEFT?
"How many announcements"
"Are there ten more left?"
Should I wear my Spider-Man outfit next?
I guess I don't have much time.
I might get eliminated at any moment.
I need to hurry.
-The time is
-Jeez.
What was that?
There it is.
In one minute,
we will announce who survives
and who is eliminated.
What was that sound?
Just a minute!
There's going to be a big announcement.
I'm scared. What's happening?
I'm going home, everybody.
I'm probably done.
It's not me, is it? It's not over, right?
You can still see me, right?
Instant noodles
I hadn't even noticed
the screen to the side,
but it was there.
I had no time to even notice it.
Here are the potential survivors
and eliminated contestants.
1ST DAEDO, 2ND JANG KEUN-SUK,
3RD PYO EUN-JI
18TH NEEDMORECASH, 19TH SHERRY,
20TH WETBOY
"Why aren't you telling us
the most important announcement?"
DAEDO
ESTIMATED RANKING: 1S
Actually, I can't tell you right now.
I'm sorry.
JANG KEUN-SUK
ESTIMATED RANKING: 2ND
Instant noodles taste best
when you eat them uncooked like this.
PYO EUN-JI
ESTIMATED RANKING: 3RD
You're doing great, everybody.
Make your friends watch.
NEEDMORECASH
ESTIMATED RANKING: 18TH
I need more viewers!
I thought you didn't care!
SHERRY
ESTIMATED RANKING: 19TH
I'll start things off with some dancing.
WETBOY
ESTIMATED RANKING: 20TH
Whatever happens, happens.
I'm probably getting eliminated,
so I'll go live on Instagram more often.
THE STREAM HAS ENDED
What? It turned off.
1ST, DAEDO, SURVIVED
LAST COUNT: 5,584 VIEWERS
Thank you so much.
I was very happy.
But at the same time,
I felt so bad for the person
who got eliminated
because they had to leave
without even getting to say goodbye.
It's just brutal and scary.
This will probably
be aired a long time after.
THE STREAM HAS ENDED
So this is how it ends.
I already said goodbye.
I'm glad.
20TH, WETBOY, ELIMINATED
LAST COUNT: 60 VIEWERS
Okay.
-Where's the exit?
-WETBOY.
-Good job. You got this!
-You did great.
There he is.
Congratulations!
-Lucky!
-So you're out right away?
-Good job.
-It was easy.
-Thank you.
-I knew you'd survive.
Thank you.
I knew you'd make it.
In five minutes,
we will announce who survives
and who is eliminated.
I survived for now, everyone.
My stream could've turned off,
but it didn't, thanks to all of you.
Fucking hell.
Okay!
I'm going to do my best!
I feel relaxed now.
I wore this Spider-Man outfit
for a cosplay lookbook.
It got 7.13 million views.
SO PRETTY
The back especially
looks great.
SHE'S HAVING A GREAT TIME HAHA
MYBOO
COSPLAY CREATOR
I wanted to do well in the first half,
but I couldn't imagine myself
finishing in the top five.
So I decided to bring my guests in
for the second half.
I'M SO EXCITED
YOU NEED TO SURVIVE
YOU'RE ALL SO PRETTY
In one minute,
we will announce who survives
and who is eliminated.
2ND: JANG KEUN-SUK
I'd go back to my hotel room
and enjoy the night view
while eating instant noodles.
3RD: PYO EUN-JI
I also wore this Pikachu outfit
for my cosplay lookbook.
It's all coming back to me.
It feels like I'm back in Japan.
This is dangerous.
THE STREAM HAS ENDED
What? Did it turn off?
Did it turn off?
Did I survive?
2ND, PYO EUN-JI, SURVIVED
LAST COUNT: 3,666 VIEWERS
It was exciting to finish in a higher spot
than I had expected.
19TH, SHERRY, ELIMINATED
LAST COUNT: 192 VIEWERS
In the first half,
the gap between me
and the top spots wasn't that big.
So I thought I'd survive pretty easily.
But I think I had a lapse in judgment.
When I saw that Pyo Eun-ji
finished above me,
my heart was pounding,
and my hands were trembling.
I'll use a spoon
instead of a bottle opener.
ARE YOU OKAY?
Don't panic.
YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE PANICKING
All right, let's not panic.
Please invite your fellow Eels
and tell them
to watch my stream right now.
It's not bedtime yet.
Please wake up, Eels.
No matter what anyone says
I choose Jang Keun-suk
Even if they don't let me
I choose Jang Keun-suk
He's drinking Japanese whisky.
I'm sure he'll survive
since he has a large fandom.
3RD: JANG KEUN-SUK
Sometimes I go to restaurants
and sing like this.
4TH: DOHWADORE
People born in the Year of the Rooster
had tough years from 2020 to 2023,
but life will get better for them in 2024.
Let's see how Ji-sou is doing.
He's suddenly doing bad.
But he was seventh in the first half.
There's a big gap now.
Needmorecash isn't doing so well.
He only has 224 viewers.
Ji-sou has 280. They're almost level.
Ji-sou's going home.
But he finished so high in Round 1.
This is bad.
I saw our names on the screen.
It showed who survived
and who got eliminated.
I saw that the eliminated and I
had similar viewer counts.
I knew I was done,
but I still tried to give it my all.
I'm in big trouble.
Just stay for ten minutes.
Use a clickbait title?
Give me ideas.
Tell me how to draw attention.
Just throw out ideas.
"Change it to 'I'll reveal my earnings.'"
"Quaddurup is back."
QUADDURUP IS BACK
Is this good?
Will this work?
IT NEEDS TO HAVE MORE PUNCH
"I'll reveal my ex-girlfriend
who was an AfreecaTV streamer."
I'll do whatever I can.
REVEALING MY AFREECATV STREAMER EX-GF
CHANGE IT TO SOMETHING ELSE
How many times
do I have to change the title?
What do you want me to do?
Should I do the Zero Two dance?
MY EYES!
SUPPLY WITHOUT DEMAND LOL
MY EYES ARE RUINED, BYE
I just couldn't get more viewers.
I was in trouble.
YOU HAVE TO DO SOMETHING
LET'S LEAVE, EVERYONE
This is what you've all wanted to know.
I BET YOU'LL HAVE MORE VIEWERS
IF YOU TALK IN THAT CHARACTER
Father!
All right, I'll talk!
Please join my stream!
I'VE NEVER SEEN HIM TALK IN THAT SUI
YOU'RE ACTUALLY TALKING LOL
-Please!
-He never talks in this outfit!
Isn't this too provocative?
I've never titled my stream like this.
In one minute,
we will announce who survives
and who is eliminated.
Wake up all your fellow Eels.
It would make me very happy
if more of you watched.
Come on.
I want to survive.
This doesn't matter!
THE STREAM HAS ENDED
Jang Keun-suk survived.
Needmorecash is eliminated!
I survived.
3RD, JANG KEUN-SUK, SURVIVED
LAST COUNT: 3,280 VIEWERS
No matter what anyone says
I choose Jang Keun-suk
Ultimately
I choose Jang Keun-suk!
18TH, NEEDMORECASH, ELIMINATED
LAST COUNT: 307 VIEWERS
I won't look at the screen
even if it makes noises.
I don't care
if I get eliminated at this point.
I'm turning the screen around.
I'm not looking at this.
I feel so anxious. Damn you, producers!
Jeez!
Hey!
You can't do this to me!
WHY IS HE ANGRY?
HE'S TRYING TO GET ATTENTION LOL
I decided to clickbait
to survive at least a bit more.
Baiting people is key.
-I'm hoping for 800, 900, or 1,000.
-Please!
-That's my hope.
-Even just 900!
-You have to do it now!
-Okay.
-Gosh.
-Just do it.
This is a fight for the most viewers.
I decided to bait people
and go to the extreme.
All right.
SHE'S ACTUALLY SHAVING I
YOU CHOSE TO DO THIS
I FEEL LIKE YOUR BROWS ARE DIRTY
YOU'RE ACTUALLY DOING IT?
Mom, I bragged to everyone
about being on a Netflix show.
But this is what I'm doing, Mom.
-She's shaving her brows.
-Goodness.
Oh my goodness.
They're all so desperate to survive.
Baiting people requires skill though.
-Right.
-You have to do everything.
Don't leave my stream, everyone.
Oh no.
Let's go! Come on!
17TH, MIN CHAN-GI, ELIMINATED
LAST COUNT: 391 VIEWERS
4TH, DOHWADORE, SURVIVED
LAST COUNT: 2,820 VIEWERS
Those two are so close.
They're only separated
by 10 to 20 viewers.
-Please stay with me.
-Come on.
-Please like this stream!
-It's not over yet.
THE STREAM HAS ENDED
16TH, GVAN, ELIMINATED
LAST COUNT: 531 VIEWERS
I survived.
5TH, CHANGHYUN, SURVIVED
LAST COUNT: 2,384 VIEWERS
6TH, BBOGUMI, SURVIVED
15TH, JUNGHYUN, ELIMINATED
I made it!
6TH, BBOGUMI, SURVIVED
LAST COUNT: 2,012 VIEWERS
I traded my eyebrow for this victory.
15TH, JUNGHYUN, ELIMINATED
LAST COUNT: 684 VIEWERS
I was so upset and
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared right now, everyone.
I don't care!
What are we, hamsters?
You can't just lock us up in here
and make us spin the wheel.
Let's go, Netflix!
Who's making all that noise?
I've gone beyond being irritated.
It made me so angry.
I learned through this experience
that I shouldn't try to bait people.
All right, I'm doing it.
I'm going to speak my truth.
SPEAKING MY TRUTH ABOUT NETFLIX
Was this arranged with Netflix?
Of course not.
Turn the cameras off!
This one, that one, and that one.
Turn them off. I'll pay the penalty.
Blur my face.
I'm ashamed to be on something like this.
Ji-sou's viewer count went up to 700.
-That's amazing.
-It keeps increasing.
He changed the title
to "Speaking My Truth About Netflix."
I guess he panicked.
What?
This is really unexpected.
I got eliminated.
I had 244 viewers
when my stream turned off.
I've never gone live on Instagram
and had such a low viewer count,
but someone kept commenting
"fuck you" in the chat,
and I had to delete them myself.
So as I was deleting those comments
My live stream is down.
THE STREAM HAS ENDED
RECONNECTING
This can't be happening.
I'm sorry.
YOU ARE LIVE!
THE STREAM HAS ENDED
14TH, SIAJIWOO, ELIMINATED
LAST COUNT: 224 VIEWERS
I think being lucky is a skill too,
so I accept the results.
7TH, MYBOO, SURVIVED
LAST COUNT: 1,584 VIEWERS
I'm amazed by Ji-sou.
Ji-sou began with 170 viewers
but raised that to 1,000.
-It's crazy.
-What's he talking about?
He's dissing Netflix.
Why are all of us content creators here?
We're not here for money.
We're here because we trust Netflix.
But we've been forced
to bait and draw people's attention
in ways most of us have never done before
and will never be able to use again.
We can't get sponsored,
and we can't post these videos on YouTube.
Get it together!
If I get to survive,
I'm not going to participate
in any games like this.
SAY IT LOUDER
JI-SOU'S GOING ALL OU
I started with about 200 viewers,
but once I started dissing Netflix,
it went up to about 800 to 1,000.
I knew it was working.
I'm tired of this! Turn my stream off!
YOUR LIVE IS THE BES
THIS IS FUN
You're enjoying this?
Whatever.
I don't care anymore.
Just turn the cameras off.
I wonder how long I'll survive.
If all of you help me by watching,
could I survive?
In my opinion,
there's a big difference
between my subscribers
and other influencers' subscribers.
First of all, my subscribers
are asleep by that time.
I've never gone live at such a time.
I'M SO SLEEPY
CAN YOU STREAM AT AN EARLIER TIME?
"Go live again at an earlier time
when we're all awake."
My little ladies and gentlemen,
you prefer the day, right?
The people watching me now
are fighting off sleep just to watch this.
Wake them all up? How can I do that?
I really want to wake everyone up
so they can help me.
"Change your stream title."
What should I change it to?
Something like,
"Thank you for everything until now"?
"My tearful request."
"Time to say goodbye"
sounds too much like the end.
WHAT ABOUT "MY LAST REQUEST"?
"My last request"?
I've never named my streams
anything like that.
So many people in the comments
told me that I should try
changing things up
and use different titles and thumbnails.
I had given up already,
but my viewers
were still pushing me to keep trying.
I'll change it to "My Tearful Request."
MY TEARFUL REQUES
I'm worried people will be shocked.
Please invite more people.
WHEN DO YOU USUALLY SLEEP?
When do I usually sleep?
I don't think
I'll be able to sleep after this.
"I'm sorry, but I'm going to bed."
No!
I'M STAYING AWAKE THROUGH SHEER WILL
I see.
Thank you.
I'm sorry for not letting you sleep.
"Can I leave it on and doze off a bit?"
Yes, you could do that.
Oh dear.
DON'T CRY
I'M TEARING UP TOO
I'LL STAY UNTIL THE END
DON'T CRY
DON'T FEEL SORRY
WHO MADE YOU CRY?
DON'T CRY
JUST LEAVE IT ON WHILE YOU SLEEP
I'm sorry.
Someone commented,
"Can I leave it on and doze off a bit?"
I felt so sorry when I read that
and started to cry.
I'm sorry.
I want to finish this look
because I know how much you all
are interested in makeup.
I'll stay strong.
8TH, RISABAE, SURVIVED
LAST COUNT: 2,125 VIEWERS
My stream turned off.
13TH, IAMKATIECUTIE, ELIMINATED
LAST COUNT: 700 VIEWERS
-Risabae!
-Yes?
-Did you cry?
-Yes.
Why are you crying?
Don't cry.
-Risabae.
-Hey.
-Good job.
-Thank you.
It's all right, I cried too.
You're fine.
-You did great.
-I know how you feel.
My viewers were trying so hard to help me.
They were giving up sleep
just to stay with me.
-That's how much your fans love you.
-That's right.
-My viewers all made fun of me.
-I felt so sorry and grateful.
She shaved her eyebrow.
-Did you actually shave it?
-Yes.
Oh my goodness. I'll draw you a new one.
-Please draw it in the next round.
-I got you.
Is it just me now?
Why don't I hear anything?
How am I still surviving?
I just wanted to speak my mind
and get eliminated.
My friends were all like,
"You're going on Netflix?"
"You made it, man."
"You're a superstar, Ji-sou."
Superstar, my foot.
What the hell am I doing here?
IT'S A WHINING SHOW
LOL
"Whoever lasts the longest wins, right?"
I have no idea.
I still have the screen turned.
I don't even know
why my stream is still on.
"You won"?
No, I think they forgot about me
and went home.
YOU'RE OU
YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE ON AFREECATV
"You're out"?
EVERYONE'S GONE
Wait, I'm the only one live right now?
I'm the only streamer on AfreecaTV
with this background?
YES, YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE LEF
Does that mean I'm last?
I'm left with no choice.
I'm going to review Disney Plus shows.
PLEASE DO I
THAT'S A BOLD MOVE
IT'LL GET EDITED OU
SHUT HIM UP!
I honestly prefer
Disney Plus and Coupang Play more.
Let's see who wins.
I'm going to watch something
on Coupang Play.
I'm going to take a crap here.
-He's hilarious.
-Right?
-Ji-sou's funny.
-He really is.
I'll keep going the more viewers I get.
While you're all here, please comment
"LGJ" or "Let's go, Ji-sou."
I want to feel the energy
of people cheering me on.
LGJ
LGJ
I can feel the energy!
Hey, everyone.
GATO
TIKTOK CREATOR
Focus!
I was so nervous.
I didn't want to be
the last remaining streamer.
"This is a speed game, right?"
KEJIMIN
TIKTOK CREATOR
Where's the flag of Nepal?
My heart was pounding so hard.
I really didn't want to go home.
What's going on?
THE STREAM HAS ENDED
I survived.
9TH, JANG JI-SOU, SURVIVED
LAST COUNT: 1,706 VIEWERS
That's a relief.
-There you go, Ji-sou!
-Ji-sou's amazing.
-He had 1,706 viewers.
-It's crazy.
-He's really something.
-He is.
Round 2 was Ji-sou's round.
His viewer count
skyrocketed all of a sudden like magic.
I was on the verge of being eliminated
before I mentioned Netflix.
Then I started dissing on Netflix.
Please help me.
Please just stay for ten minutes.
Even if I survive, I'll quit the show.
We're not here for money.
We're here because we trust Netflix.
You can't just do
whatever you want, Netflix.
Get it together!
People loved that.
My viewer count skyrocketed
once I did that.
I survived once more.
12TH, GATO, ELIMINATED
LAST COUNT: 682 VIEWERS
-GATO got eliminated.
-You're right.
The ones who were at the top are all out.
All the TikTokers got eliminated.
-You're right.
-Right.
Good job.
-Ji-sou, your stream
-What's up?
-So much respect, man.
-We were all watching it.
PaniBottle was so worried about you
when you had 200 viewers.
I feel like I'm going to cry.
-We all cried.
-Everyone cried.
This was my hardest stream.
How much time is left?
What's going on?
What's happening? I'm so scared.
I couldn't breathe at that moment.
I'm in big trouble.
I'll keep doing burpees
until I get around 1,000 viewers.
I started to feel the pressure
when I saw that only two of us were left.
I need more viewers!
-Don't leave me, guys.
-Was that 14?
-The second half
-Please help me!
-will end in ten seconds.
-Don't leave me!
Oh my god.
Where's the Peru flag?
The second half is over.
Is it over?
Am I out? What's happening?
10TH, KEJIMIN, SURVIVED
11TH, DOCTOR WHO, ELIMINATED
KEJIMIN?
-Why did Doctor Who lose viewers?
-Really?
KEJIMIN turned the tables.
What?
10TH, KEJIMIN, SURVIVED
LAST COUNT: 885 VIEWERS
I only had 60 more viewers
than Doctor Who.
I'm in 15th place.
I'm the only remaining TikToker.
11TH, DOCTOR WHO, ELIMINATED
LAST COUNT: 821 VIEWERS
She had 885, and I had 821.
That's too bad.
I was unraveling toward the end.
I failed to show any interesting content,
and my stream became too simple.
I'm disappointed.
I have a newfound respect
for people who do live streams.
In addition to uploading content,
influencers can also do live streams
as a form of content.
I learned I hadn't explored that area
as much as I should have.
WETBOY
SHORT-FORM CREATOR
I actually haven't been able
to create content recently.
When my fans told me in the chat
that they missed me,
I almost teared up.
I was so happy to realize
that there were people out there
who missed my content.
It's been seven years
since I made my debut.
I had a lot of mixed feelings.
Early on in my career,
a lot of people looked down on me.
But now I'm on a Netflix show,
and I even had 500 viewers
watching my stream.
This all came to mind
all of a sudden
when the lights turned off.
As a drag queen, a queer,
and a gay man,
I'm very proud as an influencer
for coming on here
and being confident about myself.
If you deny me, I will destroy you!
Survivors of Round 2,
congratulations.
Here is the ranking
of your worth after Round 2.
MyBoo is first.
MyBoo's worth is more than 70 million?
MyBoo is first.
I actually walked out
with Siajiwoo earlier.
I thought, "Wasn't she first?"
My worth is now 77.64 million won.
When I looked at the screen,
I couldn't believe my eyes.
I rose to third place. I'm sorry, GATO.
Thank you for that.
The VIPs of Round 2
are MyBoo with the highest worth,
and KEJIMIN with the second highest worth.
Doesn't third place get to be VIP too?
Third place is VIP too, isn't it?
Here is your mission for Round 3.
-This is so important.
-This is killing me!
-Please, no short-form videos.
-In Round 3,
you will be judged on your ability
-to draw people's attention.
-Baiting?
You will create a photo
for your Instagram feed.
Oh my god! So it's Instagram!
-No! I'm doomed.
-I'm doomed.
Photos?
We all thought
it would be short-form videos.
It's hard to get a lot of likes
through photos these days.
This will probably be
a more difficult challenge.
We're not making videos?
This time it's photos?
This isn't ideal.
As soon as we saw the mission,
I could hear the male influencers
let out a loud groan.
As someone who does cosplay
and edits photos myself,
I'm confident I can do well.
I feel like the male influencers
are at a disadvantage for this round
since they don't really
have anything to show.
I think this round is made for the women
like me.
THE INFLUENCER
ROUND 3
15 SURVIVORS LEF
-What's that?
-That looks like a claw machine.
-What's that?
-Oh my.
-What is this?
-What?
What?
-Do we get in that thing?
-What's that?
Is something going to drop?
Are we getting in there
to have photos taken?
Are we getting locked in there?
Is it one of those things
where the box fills up with water?
-No way!
-And you have to endure it for 19 minutes.
There could be cockroaches too.
I think we get in there
and get our photos taken.
Then I wouldn't have worn this outfit.
I think we're voting for each other.
Maybe we'll have to
change our outfits and take photos
within a certain time limit.
I don't know what to expect.
I really don't.
I'm so curious.
We welcome the 15 influencers
who made it to Round 3 of The Influencer.
Let's go!
In Round 3,
only eight of you will survive
and advance to the next round.
-That's half of us.
-Half are going home.
In Round 3,
you will get in pairs for a team match.
-Pairs?
-A team match?
Jeez.
Round 3 is about photos.
You can't downplay how powerful
the female influencers are in that area.
It'll be centered on the women.
It would be strategic
to focus on the women.
Before the round begins,
an auction will be held
to determine the teams.
I never imagined
that I'd be in a human auction.
We're spending this money!
This is what it's for!
It's finally time to make use of my worth.
It's time to fight.
They're making us fight with our worth.
And money is always a sensitive issue.
It's going to get intense.
Everyone's fortune says
that they'll get pretty emotional.
As such,
influencers must enter the auction cube,
starting with the influencer
with the lowest worth.
15TH, DOHWADORE
As the first influencer to be auctioned,
I felt a lot of pressure.
This is so sad. I'm second.
14TH, JUICE SEYEON
The fact that I could be sold
and bought by others felt so
12TH, JANG KEUN-SUK
I didn't want to go up.
I had no idea what I would have to do.
It felt a bit brutal.
11TH, JUNWOO
It's brutal,
but that's how it's supposed to be.
8TH, PANIBOTTLE
Influencers who wish to team up
with the influencer in the auction cube
may use their worth
to participate in the bidding.
-This is so unexpected.
-The influencer
who submits the highest bid
will win the influencer
in the auction cube.
What was unexpected
was that the buyers
and sellers in this auction
were kind of predetermined.
If no one bids for an influencer,
that influencer would fail in bidding
and must wait their turn
-to enter the auction cube again.
-We might not get chosen?
The influencer who does not get chosen
until the end
will be eliminated.
-I knew it!
-Oh my goodness.
-This is crazy.
-This is mean.
That's so brutal.
This is it.
The influencer
with the least worth is Dohwadore.
15TH, DOHWADORE
FORTUNE TELLING YOUTUBER
Please enter the auction cube.
This is so brutal.
Man, this is crazy.
I don't like this.
Oh dear. It must feel so weird.
I really don't like this.
This is so intense.
Dohwadore isn't someone
who uses himself to create content.
He's someone who needs video and audio.
It didn't seem like he knew a lot
about crafting Instagram feeds.
I felt that Dohwadore
was in the most precarious position.
Can you hear us, Dohwadore?
I guess he can.
I just wanted to get out.
I hated feeling like an animal in a cage.
And I had to get up there first.
If you buy someone,
you don't have to go in there.
-Am I right?
-That's right. You're set.
We will now begin the first bidding.
Let's do this.
This influencer
began at 60th place in worth.
As a powerhouse contestant,
Dohwadore made it to the final 15.
The starting bid will be set
at one-third of his worth,
2,570,000 won.
If you would like to submit a bid,
raise your hand and state your price.
We will now begin the bid for Dohwadore.
I hoped someone would buy me.
I'm really bad at advertising myself.
Are any of the women interested?
I think a male-female pair
would look good for photos.
You're right, but
Some people
could find my content difficult.
So I knew they'd be hesitating.
That's why I decided to lock in
and do my best to increase my chances
of moving on to the next round.
I had a feeling
that Round 3 would be a team match.
-Don't look at me.
-What I'm trying to say here
is that I have the lowest worth among us
as you can see,
which proves how good I had to be
to make it here.
If you choose to join me
I was so desperate for this
that I even bleached my hair.
Maybe you should bribe us.
I promise you
I'll have us move on to Round 4.
The starting bid is 2,570,000 won.
-Are there any bids?
-Oh dear.
Wait a minute.
-This is so sad.
-The bidding will end in ten seconds.
I'm scared I'll end up like him.
But considering MyBoo's worth,
someone will have to buy Dohwadore.
What about you, MyBoo?
-We can't buy MyBoo.
-Will you buy him?
I'm so sorry.
He kept making eye contact with me,
asking me to buy him.
And I felt so bad,
so I kept saying sorry.
She was very kind.
We also share
the same Chinese zodiac sign.
Dohwadore,
as no one wanted to buy you,
your bidding has failed.
-Oh my god.
-I'm next.
So this is what it's like.
NO BID FOR DOHWADORE
I'm so scared.
The lights turned red.
Even if I did get eliminated,
I didn't want to get eliminated like that.
I think I might've cried
if that happened to me.
We live in a cruel world.
Well, what can I do?
I just started to strategize again.
But the important thing is,
Juice Seyeon's up next.
-She's a hot item.
-I don't think so.
She's amazing.
I need to buy her.
The next influencer
is a master of flirting
who wants to make the world her stage.
-"Master of flirting"?
-Juice Seyeon.
14TH, JUICE SEYEON
AFREECATV STREAMER
She's going to be a hot item.
I knew that Juice Seyeon would have
a definite advantage in this round.
She has the good looks which I lack.
She's pretty, so it's obvious
how popular she'll be.
I think I look like someone
who would be good with photos,
so I was hoping
at least one person would bid for me.
STARTING BID
2,620,000 WON
Five million.
Six million.
That high already?
This is crazy.
I bid 6.5 million won!
-Stay out of this.
-Why should I?
There aren't many women we can bid for.
Don't take one from us.
But I want her too.
She's so popular.
Now's my chance to raise the bids.
Anyone else want to bid for me?
Not me.
Ten million.
PANI BOTTLE
10-MILLION-WON BID
How much? Ten million?
This is so crazy!
When we're going to be judged
by one photo,
I need someone impactful like her.
I knew my chances of buying her were low,
so I wanted to make sure
that whoever got her paid the price.
I don't have enough money.
You'll be left with only 4.5 million!
My strategy was
to make the others spend money,
regardless of who actually takes her.
I mean, she's the only person
worth buying here.
What do I do?
You should bid 10.1 million.
I'll bid 11 million.
-For real?
-Jin Yong-jin bids 11 million won.
Juice Seyeon is someone
who can cover for my flaws.
I can take photos,
but I'm not good at having my photo taken.
But I knew I could help her
plan the concept for the photo.
I'll bid 11.5 million.
I can't believe it.
-That's all of your money.
-It's okay.
You'll be left with 30,000 won
on this gamble.
I decided to go big
and try to recover my money later on.
This was all so crazy.
Junwoo bids 11.5 million won.
Are there any more bids?
Yong-jin?
You should buy her.
Just raise it by 100,000 won.
You might get eliminated.
Three,
-two, one.
-There's another round, right?
He bid everything with 30,000 won left.
Juice Seyeon has been sold to Junwoo
for the final price of 11.5 million won.
Congratulations.
The winning bid of 11.5 million won
will be transferred to Juice Seyeon.
I can't believe it. Do I get it right now?
-I'm rich!
-I think
this may be the only chance
to spend my money anyway.
You basically spent
ten million on star balloons.
Junwoo! Your money's right here.
Thanks for the money, Junwoo.
-Thank you.
-Congratulations.
-You're broke now.
-I have 30,000 won left.
-What a guy.
-I'm jealous.
So that's how it will look on screen.
Look at that.
You need to buy someone
if you think you won't be bought.
There's no point in saving money now.
You need to survive first.
The next influencer is BBOGUMI,
the risk-taker,
who moved on to Round 3
by shaving her brow.
-"Risk-taker"?
-She's the risk-taker.
Her current worth is 9.08 million.
13TH, BBOGUMI
STREAMER & YOUTUBER
-You got this.
-I can do this.
In the previous round,
I showed everyone my weird side.
So my goal this time was to show people
how pretty I could be.
You could go for a funny concept
with someone like BBOGUMI.
She actually shaved her brow.
I'm fully willing to team up
with someone like her.
She sacrificed herself the most.
There's no doubt she'd do her best.
Please buy me!
Please buy me!
Come on, buy me!
I'm a girl too!
BBOGUMI
3,020,000
It felt so good
to be the center of attention
standing in that cube.
I kind of felt like a celebrity.
I'll bid 3.52 million won.
-How much?
-I bid 3.52 million.
Go higher!
Raise your bids!
Kick, drum, bass.
Kick, drum, bass.
Kick, kick.
Congratulations, PaniBottle.
You got a pretty cheap deal.
A cheap deal?
Why is no one else bidding?
I initially thought BBOGUMI
was worth bidding for,
but I started having doubts.
Come on, buy me already!
I won't let you down!
Could you buy me, Eun-ji?
-Eun-ji!
-Why me?
I need to be with a pretty girl!
-She needs a pretty girl.
-A pretty girl.
The current bid is 3.52 million won.
Are there any more bids?
-Should I go for it?
-The bidding will end
in three seconds.
Three, two, one.
-I'll bid 4.22 million won!
-There you go!
Yes!
I'll raise it to 4.52 million.
Let's go!
Go travel or something!
What are you doing?
That's funny.
I bid 4.62 million won.
This isn't good.
My plan was to get BBOGUMI no matter what,
even if I had to go all in.
I'll bid 5.02 million.
-You win.
-He's going for it.
-He's all out.
-I can't outbid you.
Why can't you?
Young people these days are fearless.
BBOGUMI has been sold to PaniBottle
for the final price of 5.02 million won.
Thank you.
Don't worry, Keun-suk.
-You're the hottest item here.
-I'm getting worried.
Would anyone bid for me?
As someone who barely survived each round,
I assumed the other influencers
wouldn't trust me
and end up not bidding for me.
That made me feel a bit tense.
The next influencer's survival
has been more dramatic than any TV show.
Next up is Jang Keun-suk.
-Let's go!
-What an introduction.
Keun-suk is next up.
"More dramatic than any TV show."
-He's a really hot item.
-This is a big one.
12TH, JANG KEUN-SUK
ACTOR
Jang Keun-suk is first on my list.
He's a celebrity with a lot of followers.
The vibe that comes
with age and experience
can't be overlooked.
JANG KEUN-SUK
3,770,000
We will now begin
the bid for Jang Keun-suk.
I'll bid 3.87 million won.
I'll raise that to four million.
He's in high demand.
I'll bid 4.1 million.
I'll do 4.5 million.
This feels so strange.
This reminded me
of when I first started acting,
back when I was trying to show
that I was ready for anything.
I remembered my past auditions
being judged by adults.
CURRENT BID
4.5 MILLION WON
How high will you go?
Me?
Whatever it takes for me to get him.
Really?
I'll bid six million won.
JIN YONG-JIN
6-MILLION-WON BID
If you're going to team up with a guy,
-Keun-suk's the best choice.
-That's right.
Why aren't you bidding higher?
-What?
-I thought you wanted him.
-Well
-Why won't you outbid?
It's the nature of being an influencer
to have to be chosen by others.
I'm worth six million?
I think I started to feel
desperate at that moment.
This is your chance to have me!
If I buy you,
will you appear on my YouTube channel?
I'll do whatever you want.
Will you act for my show?
I'll do things for you outside this show.
I'll bid eight million!
PYO EUN-JI
8-MILLION-WON-BID
Pyo Eun-ji made a bid.
I'm actually a huge fan of Jang Keun-suk.
I would be so lucky
if I got to pair up with him.
I'd be happy even if I get eliminated.
Ten million!
Ten million?
It's only ten million won.
Come on, go higher.
I'll raise it to 11 million.
-I'll go with 12 million.
-Then I'll bid 12
I bid 12.5 million.
I'm definitely worth that much.
Not bad.
Pyo Eun-ji bids 12.5 million won.
I don't have enough to go higher.
CURRENT BID
12.5 MILLION WON
I can't top that.
The bidding will end in three seconds.
Three, two, one.
Jang Keun-suk has been sold to Pyo Eun-ji
for the final price of 12.5 million.
I was disappointed and annoyed
about missing out on Jang Keun-suk.
Damn it.
The winning bid of 12.5 million won
will be transferred to Jang Keun-suk.
I'm satisfied.
I knew I would be this expensive!
This boosts my confidence!
He's worth 23 million won now.
Thank you.
I bought the Prince of Asia
for 12.5 million.
Thank you.
I feel pretty good.
I'm good now.
I have the confidence
to go against anyone now.
I'd like to use my VIP benefit.
I'd like to use my VIP benefit.
What did you say?
What?
-What?
-What was that?
What's the benefit?
MyBoo has chosen to use her VIP benefit.
