Chapter 976: Regret (10)
Seong Si-wan’s Apartment.
The apartment, about the same size as the dormitory at Eun Gwang High, often had university friends visiting two or three times a month, but today, it was his high school junior, Gye I-dam, who was there.
Having accepted Jo Yi-shin’s proposal, Seong Si-wan and Gye I-dam decided to team up, with Seong Si-wan persuading Gye I-dam that it would be easier to stay together for convenience.
Of course, Gye I-dam initially expressed hesitation at Seong Si-wan’s suggestion.
In the realm of information warfare on the web, Seong Si-wan couldn’t do anything, and Gye I-dam wasn’t thrilled about showing Seong Si-wan how to manipulate public opinion, leveraging his past experience as a notorious internet troll.
However, Seong Si-wan wasn’t about to just stand by while his junior got entangled in this situation, so he persuaded Gye I-dam to join him.
‘Doing this every day would ruin both my body and mind. How many years did I-dam do this during his time as a hardcore troll...?’
Seong Si-wan sighed inwardly as he watched Gye I-dam sitting in front of more than ten holograms.
Gye I-dam was typing with one hand while constantly leaving comments through a voice input device.
From the comments Gye I-dam had written, it seemed like dozens of people shared the same opinion.
The tone of his comments shifted from male to female, from young to old, and sometimes even used professional jargon or slang from specific occupations. The punctuation and paragraphing were meticulously done, so much so that it bordered on madness, as if he were impersonating many people.
Just typing those comments and spreading rumors was hard enough, but when necessary, Gye I-dam didn’t hesitate to engage in debates, wearing down the opposing party until they dropped out.
