46. beyond expectations (1)

[Yoona Kim and All-Star Gala Show World Tour! The grand finale ends successfully!]

[Yoona Kim’s gala show that presented new possibilities of gymnastics show!]

Kim Yuna, who successfully completed her world tour, is back!

Countless fans flocked to the airport from early morning.

Everyone was a crowd of people who came out to welcome the gymnastics goddess Kim Yoon-a, who had returned from showing off Korea’s status to the world.

After a while, the departure hall opened and a group of people poured out. People who step in without thinking are shocked and greatly embarrassed by the sight unfolding in front of them.

Various cheering tools, shooting equipment, bouquets, etc.

Those who waited for various items.

“uh? come!”

“It’s Yuna Kim!”

When he finds Yuna Kim, who appeared with the staff in a training suit, she screams loudly.

– Wow!

“… … !”

Even Kim Yoon-a herself was greatly taken aback by the sound that seemed to leave the airport. It’s because it’s been a long time since he was in his heyday to deal with such a large crowd.

However, as she is accustomed to standing in front of the public, she soon regains her composure.

They smiled and waved, and smiled broadly while receiving bouquets and gifts from the management staff who were waiting.

All the while, her eyes were quickly scanning the crowd.

It’s like looking for someone desperately.

Soon, her face brightened.

About a hand taller than an average adult male. A handsome man with a cool atmosphere who looks good in a suit and glasses.

“… … !”

For a moment, she forgot her surroundings and jumped into the man’s arms. Applause and cheers rang out the moment the couple, who had been separated for a considerable amount of time, reunited again.

Yoona looked up at Taeyeon with tears on her face and said.

“I’m back.”

“Thank you for coming back safely.”

At that word, Yoona smiled widely.

It was the most beautiful smile in the world that was featured on every page of the media.

* * *

After finishing the coverage and fan service time, we were finally able to get in the car.

“I think I will live now!”

Stretch your whole body!

Yoona stretches with all her might.

Taeyeon asked while driving.

“I have lost some weight. I want you to eat well… … .”

“That oppa seems to have eaten well and exercised hard, right? When I hugged you for a moment earlier, the muscles all over your body weren’t a joke, were you?”

Her feeling was right.

Taeyeon worked hard without missing a single day of the exercise routine she taught her, and ate well.

Thanks to this, the experience level rose steadily, and the body improved to the level of the level up.

‘It’s just that there’s no sound effect and the level isn’t indicated, but it might actually have risen.’

A bracelet that makes hard work worthwhile.

Taeyeon said with a smile.

“Did you enjoy the tour?”

“huh! As for what happened… … !”

* * *

Yoona’s chatter didn’t stop until late at night.

It means that there were so many stories that could not be conveyed through phone calls or messages.

Taeyeon listened with a smile until she fell asleep from exhaustion. The spacious and splendid but cool and empty house finally felt filled with warmth.

‘As expected, I have to be by her side.’

Perhaps Yoona felt the same way, she instinctively refused to leave even while sleeping. Because when Taeyeon tried to get up to do something for a while, she sensed it like a ghost and woke up her eyes.

‘Since the tour is over, would it be okay to relax a bit? I have to spend the day for Yoona tomorrow.’

After a happy weekend, Taeyeon went to work in the best condition.

“PD-nim, you look very happy today.”

“You visited the New World shopping mall in Samseong-dong with Yoona over the weekend. Did you have a good time? It’s nice to see your expression bright!”

Early in the morning, everyone you meet at work greets you like this.

Returning to her seat, Taeyeon looked in the mirror and pondered seriously.

‘Does it show that much?’

I thought I was good at managing facial expressions, but it seems I wasn’t.

The topics of today’s headquarters meeting hosted by the president were as follows.

“Project D. Should we do an in-house test?”

VR RPG Disney Fantastic World!

It’s more fun if you wear a VR device, and even if you don’t, it’s a game you can enjoy as an RPG for consoles.

At this point, about 90% of the work has been completed, and we are now refining the details.

While catching the bug.

Taeyeon nodded to President Jinsung Yoo’s question.

“yes. Preparations for testing have already been completed. The head office live team decided to make time for a week.”

Tests are conducted alternately in the morning and afternoon to provide a stable live service. It was decided to focus on each test in one live studio, divided into morning and afternoon classes.

All executives were greatly impressed by Taeyeon’s explanation.

“Hey, move your hand. Isn’t there a lot of cases where they cooperate to this extent in the original test?”

“It’s not that there aren’t too many, but none at all. I usually do my own work for one or two days at the most, and that’s it.”

“As far as I know… … What is the secret to getting cooperation this far?”

Not only the chairman who asks questions, but most people’s faces are full of curiosity.

Taeyeon replied calmly.

“I gathered the producers in charge and asked for it, and they readily agreed.”

“… … aha.”

In a word, the situation was guessed.

Chairman Yoo Jin-seong asked.

“About how much are you selling? a million copies? Two million copies? Or five million copies?”

Of course, no matter how well these games were made, they never sold millions of copies.

He was only joking around because he wanted to see Taeyeon in trouble.

But Taeyeon was calm.

“Domestic sales must be really high to reach 10,000 or 20,000 copies.”

Everyone was startled.

Chairman Yoo Jin-seong asked.

“No, only 10,000 copies?”

“I told you, but I set that number as high as possible.”

Even a blockbuster aaa title that sells millions of copies worldwide cannot exceed 50,000 copies, let alone 100,000 copies in Korea.

Chairman Yoo Jin-seong’s expression became serious at the additional explanation of Lee Tae-young, director of the business.

“Is the domestic console market that small?”

“In the first place, if you only think about the domestic market, you shouldn’t be making console games.”

“For that reason, I was not able to easily challenge console game development. This is because the level of domestic development was not judged to be successful targeting overseas.”

Director Son Young-sang also added.

“Mmm.”

“… … .”

The atmosphere in the conference room became heavy.

I didn’t know that the console market would be in such a bleak situation.

Taeyeon took over.

“This is a game made from the ground up for the North American and Japanese markets. Steam sales… … Well, I’m looking forward to it very little.”

“Aren’t you too cold-hearted?”

“Producers have to be cool.”

“okay. you are good.”

Chairman Yoo Jin-seong grumbled and asked.

“Then let’s change the question. Are you confident enough to cover the development cost?”

“I am confident in that part. Because the total development cost of this project is less than 2 billion.”

This means that it does not even reach the cost of producing mass-produced collectible mobile games that are pouring in these days.

“Did you hear that much?”

“Project D did not have many developers from the beginning. Most of the graphics and sound resources were provided by Disney headquarters, and only necessary retouching and polishing were completed. And the actual development period is about a year.”

Those who knew the meaning could not help but admire.

It meant that it was being developed very efficiently at an incredibly fast time.

“Will that be okay?”

I feel insecure now.

It was understandable enough.

Taeyeon answered with a little force.

“It’s at a level where you won’t be embarrassed.”

At that, people thought.

‘I shouldn’t have too high expectations.’

* * *

When it was said that the project D test was conducted for employees at the head office, there were no high expectations.

‘Even if it’s Yoo PD, this is a bit… … .’

‘Well, if it’s a game made with that IP… … .’

Until now, there have been countless games made with IP by Disney. However, there were few games that genuine gamers could play with great anticipation.

Most of them were targeting puzzles or the younger age group.

But this game is different from the start!

The story of Jack, a black boy born and raised in the slums.

A crisis comes to Jack, who grew up strong in a difficult environment with a dream of a fairy tale writer.

From nob le mt l dot com

Mother collapsed from overwork.

Just like Geppetto’s grandfather in the past, Jack also prays to the starlight.

– Starlight, Starlight.

-If you allow me, I want to make just one wish.

– Please make my mother healthy again.

-If I can make my mother healthy, I can do anything.

At this moment, the resonant orchestra version of <when you wish upon a star> hits the hearts of the players.

The scene where the child prays for the health of the mother is very touching and beautifully directed.

A fairy appears and blesses Jack, who fell asleep exhausted from praying. It was the same fairy who blessed Geppetto and Pinocchio.

The fairy’s blessing falls on Jack and the book he sleeps with.

‘No, what’s the intro?!’

‘Why is it impressive from the start?’

Developers were baffled.

Because it turned out so much better than I thought!

‘Especially the graphics… … ‘

‘Wow, is this graphic true story?’

‘It’s not at the level of recycling resources… … ?’

In particular, the cartoon rendering graphics were excellent enough to not be reminiscent of the rumored resource recycling.

The game is played in an exquisite combination of Disney masterpiece content and original story.

-wake up. jack! wake up!

Jack wakes up to a strange voice.

His own children’s book was shining.

The fairy’s blessing made it possible to communicate with Jack and the book.

The book is happy to finally be able to speak, and urgently asks for help.

Here, Jack learns a surprising fact.

That his precious children’s book is actually not a simple book, but a magic book that records what happened in another world.

And that the world recorded in him is in great danger due to an unknown cause.

-If you find the heroes recorded in this storybook and help them, you can also find a way to heal your mother!

From nob le mt l dot com

My mother said she could get better.

And above all, isn’t it a request for help from a book that he has cherished since childhood?

This is how Jack’s journey begins.

The overall scenario has a strong fairytale feel.

But that doesn’t mean it’s childish.

The directing that took place during the development of the incident was of a high level that exceeded well-made adventure and RPG games for consoles.

Pretty and colorful graphics completed with cartoon rendering.

It is a directing that melts well in every part of the impression unique to Disney animation.

It was also a fun point that the existing musical part was slightly modified and directed by Jack’s performance.

The scene where Jack shares a deep friendship with the characters was also a moving part.

As I enjoy playing without hesitation, I put my main job behind me!

The live headquarters staff working on the test were literally immersed in the game without hesitation.

Even when we were taking a break over a meal or coffee, we only talked about the game… … .

A week passed just like that.
