1 – The Main Cleaner of the Another World Gallery
On a Japanese website, there was a post related to rumors.
“There’s a rumor on some site in Korea that occasionally there are nude photos of grandmothers and grandfathers being posted.”
What’s really strange is that the users of that site behave as if it’s nothing…
There are even people collecting those pictures, claiming they’re using them for something.”
It was a rumor that would shock anyone.
“Huh? There can’t possibly be such a site… Nude photos, and on top of that, of grandmothers…”
“Isn’t there an administrator for that site?”
“They gather such photos? I don’t believe it’s true www”
Nude photos of grandmothers and grandfathers?
And there are people who collect them?
But what’s even more terrifying is…
“I heard there are unpaid administrators deleting these pictures.”
“Huh? Unpaid? That’s even scarier…”
On some sites, there are unpaid administrators repeatedly viewing and deleting strange photos.
You may think that such a horrifying thing couldn’t possibly be real, but it was. It actually existed.
Just my story.
Served in the military, college graduate, unemployed, 26 years old.
My occupation?
“Administrator of 17 minor galleries.”
Proudly said, but the fact that I’m the one cleaning up the gallery’s mess won’t disappear.
What would you do, pretending to be cool while the stench of crap is wafting from your whole body?
Today, just like any other day, I spent my time erasing sh*t posts.
“At first, I never thought it’d come to this.”
I was carelessly handed the main cleaner position.
Who likes cleaning up sh*t for free?
Though I thought about tossing it to someone else after a bit, it wasn’t easy.
Taking care of the gallery, I got attached.
Thus, dedicated to the galleries, I became the ultimate cleaner, managing 17 of them.
What is a Jutak?
A position where you manage a gallery for free but with no honor.
There was only one thing that was certain – ‘Fun.’
My primal desire to have a space where I could chat and have fun without thinking about anything.
That’s why I became active as the manager of this gallery.
And now, it is slowly coming to an end.
“I should quit after finding a job.”
It’s time to prioritize offline over online.
Some call it passing through the gate of reality. In short, Real-game.
When you work in reality, your time online decreases. It’s only natural.
But finding a job isn’t easy either.
Other people are fully devoted to job-seeking activities.
As for me?
I inherited several buildings and live a comfortable “unemployed” life.
Since I treat job hunting as a hobby, I’ve already experienced dozens of rejections.
Considering this, maybe I’m not compatible with society.
For now, let’s just try here and there.
Today, I sent a perfectly crafted resume as usual…
And logged back into the gallery.
Without clicking, I found a post that I couldn’t skip.
─ Smiling Russian Feminist Update.jpg
Even the title captures my attention.
What is a Russian feminist and what does “update” mean? Why is it so cheerful?
When I clicked on the first post that greeted me, as usual, I was bombarded with tactical nukes.
Although I feel like pulling out my eyes and rinsing them with tap water, I’m used to it by now.
“Sigh.”
But why are there more incidents happening at dawn?
Damn birds.
Does some kind of curse befall us when it’s dawn?
When dawn arrives, people’s true nature awakens.
All sorts of nonsense. s*x fiends. Deceivers. And others.
I’m grateful to those who share something slightly erotic.
Other images leave a mark deep within one’s heart.
I won’t forgive the insects that have wounded my heart.
Click after click, I banned their IP and deleted their posts.
“Sigh.”
Now I’m dealing with familiar offensive images and moving on to another gallery.
And silently complaining.
It’s a gaming gallery, so why aren’t there any discussions about games?
I left the posts about Dongtan New Town ajumma and Osaka ajumma fashion untouched.
Politics, religion, society, gender conflicts, hatred, gory images, and so on.
I swiftly and accurately got rid of them with a click.
This is deleted. This too. You’re banned for 72 hours.
“Ah.”
●
This time, I was hit by a reverse tactical nuke.
Isn’t it unfair to attack without even allowing a chance for retreat?
I’ve seen it countless times before, so there’s no actual impact, but the power remains strong.
This is something I’ll never forget.
It will probably keep coming to mind until the day I die.
I’ve been exposed to tactical nukes more than a hundred times.
Once you get used to it, it feels like being plucked from a dystopia. Something new emerges.
Damn it, how many versions are there?
After counting up to tactical nuke ver.13, I gave up.
There’s no way I can memorize all the names of grandparents worldwide.
“But today is relatively calm…”
Perhaps I’ve been treading in the depths for too long.
Even after being hit dozens of times by tactical nukes, my reaction remains indifferent.
This is not a good thing. It’s not even a skill worth boasting about to others.
Anyway, I spent today guarding the gallery while occasionally playing mobile games.
There was no noise in the managed gallery… And it wasn’t bad. Not at all.
As I managed the gallery like that, a noticeable post caught my attention.
─ Title: What the hell does “Jjuttak” do?
You operate 17 minor galleries? hahahaha.
Is it an AI? How can a person be in 17 places doing “Jjuttak”? hahahaha.
Oh, it’s an AI, right? hahahaha, as if it could be a human.
Yeah, seriously, hahahaha. It even seemed to be visible 24 hours a day.
So you manage 17 galleries without pay?
No way a person could be doing that, hahahahaha.
What? That’s scary, hahahahaha.
Just now, when I used tactical hacks, it was deleted instantly, seriously. No matter when I run, it cuts like a knife.
Damn, stop running already!
G.D.
Hey, stop it!!!
Reading such posts makes me angry.
I felt good because I was acknowledged on the internet. Unconsciously, my mouth formed a faint smile.
In reality, I’m an unemployed college graduate, but online, who am I?
“I’m the owner of 17 galleries.”
Proudly boasting while looking in the mirror, then turning my gaze out the window.
Now, as if indicating that it’s time to sleep well, the sun gradually rises, and the world brightens.
The rising sun means that other people are waking up.
Accordingly, the assistant managers, who are active during the day, started to appear one by one.
It was a daily routine to manage the galleries until they went to sleep.
Actually, I’m just a nocturnal creature, sleeping during the day, but I need to give it a cool reason.
“The master in charge of the galleries.”
Anyway, it’s cool. Confirmed.
Thinking like that, I threw myself onto the bed.
I meticulously hung blackout curtains to prevent sunlight from entering and rested my head on the pillow.
Slowly, drowsiness began to creep in.
“It’s not that my daily routine is messed up, I just live faster than others.”
My usual sleep hours are from 11 am to 5 pm, so…
I live 12 hours faster than others.
Physically, I’m in Korea, but mentally, I’m in Argentina.
Aren’t I? Or not.
“Yawn….”
I’m so sleepy. As I yawned and stretched, I remembered something I had forgotten.
I have to make sure to take this.
I swallowed the supplements I had left by my bedside with water and lay back in bed.
Of course, I didn’t fall asleep right away.
If I did, then I couldn’t call myself a 0th Division.
I read through concept webtoons that were being translated while fighting off drowsiness.
It’s fun to visit places other than the gallery I manage.
I clicked on the comic with the most recommendations and comments and saw a comic that makes unicorns bleed.
─ I Love That There’s No Gender Role 3 [281]
“Wow, it’s a comic.”
I failed the body-mind-soul unity. But it’s fun.
After putting a unicorn horn with the comment “This is not something for virgins…!” I moved to another gallery.
The next destination is the modern game gallery.
Posts sharing the results of the games they played, or what games have been released recently, were the mainstream.
This new game. Trash. Wanna play? None.
Now there are no more galleries to visit.
After completing the gallery tour, as I was about to turn off my phone.
[You have been appointed as the administrator of the otherworldly gallery.]
An alert from the app popped up.
‘Otherworldly gallery?’
What could the otherworldly gallery be?
Is it related to anime or comics?
Or is it a place that is currently operating as a shelter in another gallery?
You cannot know the true nature of the gallery just by its name.
What kind of place is this, exactly? I am curious.
If it’s a place I like, I can roughly take care of it.
If I don’t like it, I can just abandon this spot and run away.
[Do you approve the appointment of the gallery manager?]
[Yes]
With a light touch, the scenery around me changed in an instant.
“Oh.”
It’s white.
A white space with nothing around me swallows me up.
Chills. A sense of horror swept over me, making my hair stand on end.
My existence lying in the white space felt strange.
As I slowly got up, words came to mind.
“You have been appointed as the manager of the gallery in this world.”
“Ah.”
This is a dream.
I closed my eyes, feeling dizzy.
How many hours have passed like that?
When I struggled to open my eyes again, nothing seemed to have changed.
What’s this? It’s just an ordinary house.
The structure is similar to the house I used to live in. The only difference is that there is nothing in the place where the computer used to be.
Instead, a hologram appeared in front of me like a computer screen.
“If you concentrate your consciousness, you can access the gallery in this world.”
“Please operate the gallery in this world according to the rules.”
Gallery in this world…?
Lying on the bed, I recalled the gallery I knew.
– What’s happening? Something’s different.
– Did Yasgak come out?
– If you’re happy that a new spot opened, congrats hahahaha
– “Get rid of this f*cking nuclear tactic first!!”
– “If it were me, I would’ve pushed them all away lol”
– “Ooh… The Demon Lord is in a cheerful mood today…”
– “Elf Queen naked exposure coaching walk.jpg”
– “The b*tchy elf looks so cute, I’m going to bed”
– “Honestly, isn’t being a hero too old?”
– “Is the smell of chicken coop still on the Elf Queen?”
– “Demon King: This asshole seems like a chewing foam lol”
– “Let’s purify those who betray the elves”
Is this the Gallery of another world…?
My head was muddled for a moment.
***
First, let’s take a deep breath.
I logged back into the gallery.
My authority is basic. I’m an administrator.
My ID is set as ‘Admin’.
The orange badge in front of my ID was conspicuous.
“Are you the only one in charge here?”
Is there no risk of making a mistake in management, being sued, or even eating cold noodles?
As I pressed various buttons on the gallery, I found a gear-shaped button.
Click.
As I touched it lightly with my finger, a new window opened.
『Gallery Administrator Mode』
– Management Level: 1
– Points: 0
『Gallery Admin Store
【Food】
【Miscellaneous】
There are no other interfaces besides this.
When I press the store tab, various items pop up.
The most noticeable ones are the food.
There’s an abundance of delicious-looking dishes.
Among them, I found the thumbnail that looks the most delicious.
【Golden Rose Chicken】
(Well-fried chicken.jpg)
– Requires 5 points
Maybe it’s because I’m slightly hungry, but my mouth waters.
I want to eat this. How do I earn points?
Is it related to gallery management points? Can I obtain them from the gallery?
I closed the window and headed towards the gallery.
– If you’re curious about what “주딱” means, downvote ㅋㅋ
ㄴDownvote downvote ㅋㅋ
ㄴIs this person unaware of this culture?
ㄴLooks like they haven’t even written posts for a while, huh?
ㄴIt seems like they came here, got surprised, and ran away in a hurry ㅋㅋ
ㄴAll sorts of provocations and crappy posts on a tactical nuke ㅋㅋㅋ
ㄴCould be hit by a tactical nuke, for real ㄹㅇㅋㅋ
ㄴFreeze! Tactical nuke!!!!!!!!!!
ㄴㄱㄷ
ㄴI said freeze!!!!!
It’s a different word, but does it get automatically translated as a tactical nuke?
Just in case, I clicked on the next post and furrowed my brows.
●
“Why is there a tactical nuke here too? Dammit.”
How can it be the same here as well?
My head feels dizzy as I read these posts.
How should I deal with these kids?
While considering, I found someone I didn’t like.
─If you want to feed tactical nukes to Jujak, you’re a loser ㅋㅋ
【Do you want to block the user?】
─Blocking period: 10 minutes
─Reason for blocking: Go away
As a test, I gave them a 10-minute ban.
Then I heard a notification sound.
【You have earned 1 point.】
“Oh….”
So, as long as I act as an administrator, they give me points?
Then what would happen if I delete posts as I please?
I discovered a very sincere post.
─Title: Kyah ㅋㅋ Posting something noble and cool
(Dwarf wielding a cool hammer.jpg)
How is it? I just made it ㅇㅇ
ㄴKyah ㅋㅋ
ㄴDwarf shank ㅋㅋ He’s quite something ㅋㅋㅋ
From Noble mtl dot com
ㄴDoesn’t work on humans though
ㄴCrazy jerk ㅋㅋ
ㄴDoes the dwarf’s weapon look like a dick?
ㄴDoesn’t work on humans? Are you saying they’re useless?
ㄴWe attach the modifier ‘useless’ to weapons made by humans
ㄴㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
ㄴㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
ㄴSpecialty of a useless weapon) Made by humans ㅋㅋㅋ
ㄴWatch him strike with the dwarf shank hammer ㅋㅋ
ㄴPut in some decent DPS ㅋㅋ
“‘The dwarf shank strikes.’”
This is a post that suits the otherworldly gallery.
I figured deleting this would elicit a response. I pressed delete as a test.
*Ding*
The alarm sounded again.
【1 Point has been deducted.】
“Hmm…”
That means there are principles in place.
Since I asked for it to be operated according to certain principles, it means that the operation should be maintained within boundaries.
‘Is this just like any minor gallery?’
Deleting the awful posts. Blocking the awful users. Cutting off chaos.
I decided to get rid of those who spam first.
─Run
─Them
─I’ll pay a fortune for their address
─Go
─Why does this asshole keep doing that
─A
─Nuclear
─Please kill this nasty bugger
─Run
─Them
─Go
Is this place a diary or what?
On clicking the post just in case, it was filled with images of nuclear tactics.
Users like these must be banned, no questions asked.
You’re out too.
【Would you like to block this user?】
─Block duration: 1000 days
─Reason for blocking: You’re out too
I like that there’s no limit on the blocking duration here.
These scoundrels need to be killed every few years to regain one’s sanity.
“It’s pitiful to kill them off for a whole decade.”
Let’s make it simple, just 1000 days. It’s the minimum mercy.
Take the punishment and come back in repentance.
【The user has been blocked.】
With the alarm, the points increased!
【You have gained 5 points.】
“Ah! Thank you for the chicken!”
Without hesitation, let’s buy the golden rose chicken.
The chicken quietly descended from the air.
“Wow.”
Indeed, another world. Is this some kind of magic?
It’s as hot and fresh as if it was just made. Let’s pick up a chicken leg and take a bite.
Crispy on the outside, juicy inside. The grease drips down. Ah!
I almost wrote a provocative post on the gallery but held back.
It’s not the right time to be active on the gallery yet.
While tearing into the chicken, I realized a new way to earn points.
“Just reading gallery posts adds up points.”
Although I haven’t figured it out properly. Reading between 50 to 70 posts will increase the points.
Should I now start with ‘genuine gallery activities’?
It was finally time to dive in.
***
Shh.
“Dak-ting” is an abbreviation for three months of silently lurking.
Three weeks. Or three months. Three years.
You can attach it however you want.
Once you’re on the gallery, stay silent until you get a feel for the atmosphere. That’s the rule.
Knowing that rule, I didn’t participate actively, just quietly read the gallery.
Fortunately, the rate of post regeneration is not that fast.
It’s similar to combining 17 galleries or even more, but it’s still manageable.
Repeatedly giving the bad guys a taste of the blade and leisurely tearing into some chicken whenever they appear.
During that time, I was able to roughly learn about the gallery.
‘For one thing, there are several races.’
The roughly identifiable races are demons, elves, dark elves, dwarves, humans, and beasts.
There may be other races, but they haven’t been seen yet.
I put effort into managing the gallery while reading the post.
-Title) The weather is nice today ^^
(A picture of a demon woman taking off her top.jpg)
ㄴ Oh yeah, oh yeah
ㄴ Kya kk, sis please post it again
ㄴ If this gets leaked, you won’t even be able to breathe
ㄴ Honestly, I want to embrace you. Leave me your contact information.
I started by saving the picture.
You could save the pictures and look at them.
And casually pressed the delete button on the post.
‘If you delete 5 explicit posts, you get 1 point.’
It’s steeper than I thought. The posts that you see while actively participating in the gallery are pretty high-level.
It’s easy to increase points as you see so many explicit posts.
[Points: 133]
Already 133 points. Hmph. It’s sweet.
Since I started managing the gallery, the other gallery members have started to notice me.
-Title) You’re active all of a sudden?
ㄴ Yeah, quite active kk
-ㄴThis guy is fast? Seriously
While browsing posts, a post with a lot of likes catches my eye.
It was a post that became a hit as soon as it reached the first page.
-Title) If you empathize, give it a like kk
I don’t know about anything else, but if Jjuddak were a female academy student, that’d be great ㄹㅇ kk

“Perfectly reflected reality ㅋㅋ”
“Perfectly, Akka is an all-girls’ student!”
“Yeah, that’s right, from what I see.”
“If she were a schoolgirl, would I be like this?”
I chuckled and went back to browsing the gallery with a wry smile.
Even in this otherworld, it’s the same chaos.
Pure evil unfolded right before my eyes.
So that’s why. I like it even more.
“Can I post some spicy pictures?”
“Please post some humanoid spicy pictures.”
“You’re such a peculiar perv…”
“I heard there’s a war going on now.”
“Where’s the war? Between demons and dwarves?”
“No, no, it’s a war between my parents.”
(Explosion at home.jpg)
“Crazy bastard ㅋㅋ broadcasting fights between married couples.”
“Damn, that demon couple’s fight is intense ㅋㅋ”
I smirked while watching the video of the demon couple fighting as if they were going to kill each other.
Even in this otherworld, people live just the same.
But how are they taking pictures?
It doesn’t feel like they have modern technology powered by electricity.
Could there be magical tools?
“Hmm…”
Magical tools, huh.
If they can be helpful later, it wouldn’t hurt to get some.
Now, I started contemplating whether to reveal my presence little by little.
Shush. Just quietly browse for three hours.
Soon, it’ll be three hours since I started.
I roughly gathered information about the gallery and grasped the atmosphere.
Shall we properly delve into management now?
As an experiment, I casually wrote a post.
─ Juttak
Title: “Hi”
Hi.
Recommendations: 391; Dislikes: 0
“What’s up, damn it? LOL, you’re really Juttak.”
“Hey, what’s up?”
“hahahahaha, this guy is crazy. Finally started writing now.”
“Juttak, got those sharp demon eyes? Juttak, got those sharp demon eyes? Juttak, got those sharp demon eyes? Juttak, got those sharp demon eyes?”
“What have you been doing all this time?”
“I guess this bastard was busy posting adult content photos. LOL.”
“But it could be a woman, you know.”
“Don’t women do that too?”
“Then who does?”
“How would I know?”
“hahahahaha, there’s nobody who knows.”
Indeed, even in this otherworldly place, where people live is similar.
Even the gallery feels like my hometown.
After reading through chaotic comments, I wrote another post.
─ Juttak
Title: “Plucking Secrets, Yeah”
Requirements: Must be able to sh*tpost 24/7, immune to tactical nukes

“hahahahaha, this is insane. Unpaid, being a slave in Enter-Gallery.”
“You’re truly a slave without pay, now, Chunsik. LOL.”
“Run awayyyyy!”
I quickly picked the lucky person as soon as the mistake was made. Look at the conditions, crazy person!
hahahaha, I feel sorry for the lucky person.
Hey, why do you want to become a lucky person?
Oh my, the Demon King wants to become a lucky person!
Don’t choose these strange individuals hahahaha.
I heard she’s a student at the Ju-Ddak Academy, a Ju-Ddak Academy student.
Really?
Of course, can you even ask? hahahahaha.
If it’s true, it’s highly possible to become a lucky person. They would even lick their feet.
Even I, as a man, can do it hahahaha.
Huh?
Are you gay?
That’s for you to…
Amidst the chaotic comments, I identified those who supported me.
Since I had already considered the individuals I would choose while browsing the gallery for three hours, all I had to do was make the selections.
“This person seems like someone who will cause a fuss in the gallery if chosen.”
It’s better to choose individuals like this.
My years of Ju-Ddak experience and accumulated big data are telling me to choose this person.
【Would you like to appoint as a sub-administrator?】
【Yes】
I lightly pressed the button.
– Is it for real?
– What’s going on!!!!!!!!!
The gallery was in uproar.
