Mark
Hello everyone and welcome to the 'seventh' episode of The Idol Room Podcast.
I'm your host as always, Mark.
And I'm joined here in the studio today with my three wonderful co-hosts.
Yu-gyeom.
Yugyeom
Hey guys.
Mark
Conan.
Conan
Hey everyone.
Mark
And Troye.
Troye
Hi. Hi guys.
Mark
Okay. So today, we have a very special guest on the show today.
Special because he's actually the producer of this podcast, and is pretty much the reason we're all here doing this.
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the man behind The New Eden Project...
Kim Seokjin!
Jin
Hey! Hey!
Thanks for having me on the show.
Mark
It's my pleasure.
So Jin, we're been talking about having you on here pretty much since the start.
Jin
Yeah, unfortunately I had to take a back seat due to a major flood in my home.
It was pretty crazy to be honest.
Yugyeom
Ah man, that sucks.
Jin
Yeah, I still have no idea what happened.
I was in London at the time because we needed to set up some surveillance drones for TG Industries.
Came back, all the power was off, half the carpet was soaked and apparently half the entire house flooded while I was away.
I 'still' have no idea what caused it all to be honest.
It's pretty damn crazy.
Troye
Ah, that sucks man.
Conan
Was anything valuable damaged?
Jin
Thankfully no. I was really lucky.
The water just missed my valuables so, pretty much dodged a major bullet, man.
It's crazy.
Mark
Ah man, I'm sorry.
Jin
Yeah. The damage has been taken care of. I just don't wanna keep anything valuable in that room anymore encase it ever happens again, y'know?
Mark
Yeah.
So, Jin.
You've actually been mentioned quite a lot throughout this podcast.
Jin
Oh really?
Mark
Yeah. So can you explain to our audience exactly what it is you do here?
Like, for those who don't know?
Jin
Yeah. I'll try and give you the abridged version just so we're not, like here all night.
-Yugyeom laughs-
Jin
But pretty much, ever since I left BTS, I became one of the heads of TG Industries government. And, In turn through that, became head of the New Eden project.
Uhh, to explain.
For those of you who don't know. Mr. Godfrey, our lord and master, is the lord and creator of TG Industries.
Mr. Godfrey rules everything down here.
He created the hybrid race, he built our empire over purgatory. He created everything, right?
Well below Mr. Godfrey is The Royal Godfrey family.
These consist of Mr. Godfrey's five sons; The Ashton five, and Mr. Godfrey's daughter, The Supreme Ambassador, Miss Ashley Godfrey.
And, below the Royal Godfrey family is 'us', the four heads of TG Industries.
Myself, the head of propaganda.
Jisung, head of Science and technology.
Some of you know him as Park Jisung from NCT.
There's Jonghyun, head of Finance and Ambassador Ami, head of Law and Order.
We're the four heads of the regime that each represent a Satanic virtue and each rule over a different sector of TG Industries pertaining to that virtue.
Are you with me so far?
Troye
Ahhhhhhh...? A little bit... but go on.
Jin
Right. Well basically you know of the four cardinal virtues, right?
The seven deadly sins of Hell?
Well, most don't know that Hell also has it's own four virtues that pertain to our perfect culture.
Loyalty, Wealth, Knowledge and Order.
These are Mr. Godfrey's four virtues for a perfect and just society.
So... Each leader of TG Industries represents and embodies one of those four Satanic virtues.
Jonghyun, who you may know as Kim Jonghyun from Shinee. He represents the order of wealth and is in charge of all wealth and finance throughout TG Industries.
He controls the stock market, manages the economy, the banking system both here and on Earth.
He keeps the government on Earth in check and helps keep the human race in endless financial debt, while keeping us above it all.
All of that fun stuff.
Jisung, on the other hand is our chief scientist. He represents the order of Knowledge and is in charge of all Science and Technology throughout TG Industries.
All of our technical advancements with Power Node technology were made through him.
Our advanced bioweapons, Hybridization, our advanced ambassador line, Sky Hornets... Pretty much everything science and weaponry, anything TG Industries is involved with goes through him.
That's Jisung's department.
Now, Ambassador Ami on the other hand, she's special because she's the only one of us who wasn't born human and became a hybrid.
She was created right here within TG Industries by Mr. Godfrey himself and was built specifically to serve as captain of the guards.
She represents the Satanic virtue of Order and is in charge of all Law and order here in the regime.
She's Captain of the guards, she's in charge of all of our soldiers, all forms of TG Industries law enforcement.
Basically, she's Mr. Godfrey's personal war general.
Now, me on the other hand. I'm a special case because I was groomed from day one to become our future Anti-Christ.
Troye
Umm... what?
Jin
I represent the order of Loyalty. I'm in charge of all public relations down here.
I actually run several different departments down here within the regime.
I'm in charge of public relations, social media, entertainment, architecture, Satanic Propaganda, using K-pop to spread Satanism to humanities youth, that kind of thing.
Mark
I'm sorry, what?
Jin
Well my official title is 'Grand Chief Ambassador of Propaganda', at least for now anyway until I officially become the Anti-Christ.
But basically I am the face of TG Industries, below the Dark Lord of course.
Conan
Uhhhhhhh...
Jin
Since I have the most experience 'being human' and living amongst the human race for... pretty much most of my entire life?
It only seemed fitting that "I" would be best to replace God and his third world ugly Son and help lead humanity going forward, y'know?
Naturally so, Humanity 'needs' strong leadership, and their weak, useless governments aren't gonna do jack shit about it, because they're well in debt to us and are completely disposable.
Conan
So... I'm sorry, what exactly "are" you then... if not human?
'Cus, you keep using the term hybrid all the time, especially when you talk about what "we" are and what you are... whatever that's meant to be.
What exactly are you now?
Jin
Basically I am so far removed from being human, I'm an enigma even within TG Industries itself.
But no. What I am specifically is an experimental Hybrid Bioweapon. The first and only of my kind actually.
Pretty much all of my body is made from an experimental liquid mercury that can be controlled remotely by AI.
Part of Mr. Godfrey's very soul resides within me but I also contain the soul of Abarat, the Ink Demon.
The most feared demon in all of hell.
In a way that technically makes me the closest thing you'll ever find to a real and genuine Nephalem, but no. I am so far beyond even that it's honestly incomprehensible.
Even God himself couldn't possible comprehend what I am, which is the whole entire point of my creation.
I am what gives TG Industries leverage over even God himself as I am so far removed from any possible ideology of God that my very existence can be weaponized at a moments notice, thus making me the perfect Anti-Christ of the regime.
You know what I mean?
But no, we all use the term Hybrid to simplify what we actually are.
We're synthetic beings that are technically neither alive or dead.
This is how Mr. Godfrey wants to perfect the entire universe.
See, it's widely believed within our regime that God draws his power from all life in the cosmos.
So if we can extinguish all organic life. Take the best and brightest of humanity and replace each and every one of them with cloned synthetic replicants?
Than we can technically carry on living for eternity, free from Life, free from God's worthless will and free from any outside influence.
This is how we put a stop to death, aging and disease and perfect ourselves through Mr. Godfrey's will.
If we can remove the 'humanity' from the human race, then we can perfect ourselves through synthetic hybridization, and basically live forever, right here in purgatory.
Are you with me so far?
Mark
Umm...
Jin
That's why I exist. I'm basically the proof in the pudding.
Proof that it's possible to turn a human into a hybrid. To turn flesh into synthetic. To weaponize the very soul and use it to our advantage.
Even our soldiers were all former Angels that we keep in gulags and turn into synthetic hybrids to serve the regime. It's absolutely wonderful. It truly is incredible.
But no, once we perfect the human race, we're going to perfect the entire universe under our own perfect umbrella.
One government, one God, one ruler, one deity, one system, one perfect society.
It's going to be incredible. It truly is.
Troye
Right... I am so confused by all of this.
Jin
Don't worry. It'll all become crystal clear when we take over.
But basically that's why New Eden exists.
We want to build the perfect society to house all of humanity when we take over, so we can prove to you all that a Hybrid society "is" a perfect society.
You get me?
Mark
Yeah...
Well... thank you for that explanation, Jin.
Hopefully that clears things up for... anyone, who is still confused.
Jin
Basically to sum it up.
We're building New Eden to replace the Earth as our perfect society.
So, New Eden is small, right now.
It mainly consists of three different territories.
New Eden City, where we are right now.
Riveria City, our sister city run by Min Yoongi.
And TG Central, the Capital. Mr. Godfrey's holy city.
Eventually though, New Eden will grow and consist of over a hundred different locations.
From Sierra Bay, Trocadero City, Eiffel City, Cloverleaf City, Francisco City-...
Mark
Right. I think we got it, Jin.
Thanks.
Yugyeom
What happened with BTS?
Jin
They work under me.
We're all part of the New Eden Project now so, I'm the head of the project.
I'm in charge of everything that goes on down here.
Ahh, Jungkook and Jimin are in charge of the New Eden side of things. They run the day to day operations of New Eden.
Suga and J-Hope run the Riveria Side of things. They-...
Yugyeom
No, I mean what happened with "you" and BTS?
You and Taehyung had a major falling out a while back, didn't you?
Jin
Ah, Yeah... Umm...
I kinda don't really wanna get into that whole mess right now, to be honest...
Conan
Aww, what happened?
Jin
Yeah, it's just, umm... This huge mess to be honest.
I'd rather not get into it.
Conan
Oh, I'm sorry.
Jin
Yeah no. Basically we were together for a little while.
It was great at first, but ahh, yeah... it didn't really work out...
Yugyeom
Sorry man.
Jin
Yeah, I don't really wanna get into it to be totally honest.
We both just wanted different things.
He was always upset that I put work before him, I was upset, we argued...
It's just this whole mess to be honest.
Conan
Oh, I'm sorry Jin.
Troye
Are you still 'with' BTS? A-as a band, I mean.
Jin
As a pop group. No.
I left all that behind... a few years ago now actually.
Troye
Right. Sorry I just thought.
Jin
Yeah, no. Like, I'm still considered Jin of BTS, and I'm still known as Jin from BTS.
Like, I'm still known as a K-pop idol. Which really is kinda funny because my names not 'actually' Jin in real life, It's Alex.
Kim Seokjin was the name Mr. Godfrey gave to me to help me blend in with South Korean culture because we believed at the time that Koreans wouldn't be able to pronounce my name.
Mark
Alex?
Jin
Alexander, yeah.
But everyone just calls me Jin and I'm so known by it worldwide now that I just roll with it, to be honest.
Mark
Would you prefer we call you Alex, or...?
Jin
Ah nah, nah, it's fine, it's fine.
But ahh...
Yeah.
The reality is, I've always been Jin of TG Industries behind the scenes.
Like, even from Day 1, I was always part of TG Industries. I was even born in the same town where TG Industries was originally established on Earth back at the dawn of the millennium.
Really, the whole entire reason I was even able to become who I am today and where I am is all thanks to TG Industries glorious design.
Conan
Really...?
Jin
Yeah. Dude even the person we abducted so I could take his place and become Jin of BTS was all thanks to Mr. Godfrey's glorious design.
That was the original Kim Seokjin, but don't worry about that.
Mark
...I'm sorry, what?
Jin
Dude, don't get me wrong, I "love" BTS.
I'll never stop loving my time with BTS and I've said on record many times now that my departure from BTS wasn't because I "wanted" to leave.
I kinda made it common knowledge that my departure wasn't my choice, it was out of my hands...
But, like I said, first and foremost, my place is here.
New Eden is my home. You all are my people. I have a very important duty here.
And to be perfectly honest, I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Conan
Ahh, that's nice.
At least you're still doing what you love.
Jin
Honestly I can't think of a more important role.
Like, we're in charge of humanities future society, y'know?
Like, when TG Industries takes over.
When we round up and kill all of the worlds leaders, dispose of everyone below the poverty line and cherry pick the best and brightest of humanity...
They're gonna need a place to live once they've been completely cloned, harvested and hybrinated.
So, building New Eden, our future perfect society?
...Nothing gives me a greater purpose, y'know?
Conan
...Riiiiight.
Troye
I'm sorry... did you just say "Dispose of everyone below the poverty line"? is... that what you just said?
Conan
"Cloned, Harvested and Hybrinated?"
Jin
Yeah, like... the weight of the entire universe just feels like it's on my shoulders sometimes, it really does.
I mean, once all of humanity is gone... we'll be all that's left.
And if I can't get New Eden absolutely perfect for repopulation, if I can't get New Eden to be perfect in every single possible conceivable way, if we make even one single miscalculation...
Then we're all fucked, quite honestly.
Completely, totally, fucked!
Mark
Uhh, we should probably get onto today's topic.
Jin
Right, The Matrix. yeah, sorry. Sorry.
Mark
That's okay.
So Jin. You were the one who approached me directly with this because you really wanted to talk about The Matrix films.
Can you tell us a little more about what brought you to this topic?
Why you wanted to talk about it?
Jin
Yeah, no. I've 'always' been fascinated by the idea of virtual reality.
The idea that one day we can live in virtual space and live in worlds we create one day for ourselves.
Yugyeom
Like with New Eden?
Jin
Exactly! yeah!
Like, I was watching Ready Player One last night funnily enough.
I absolutely 'love' that movie.
It really reminds of of PlayStation Home.
Any of you remember that?
Conan
...No?
Troye
I don't.
Jin
Well, PlayStation Home, I guess you could say, was like an early version of Ready Player One.
Like an early predecessor to what could of "been"?
But it was a complete mess, a complete failure.
The servers were always down, the service was terrible, it was... a complete mess to be totally honest with you.
But... that idea.
That idea that we could one day "live" in virtual worlds we create for ourselves...
That idea always stuck with me, y'know?
Troye
So you love the "idea" of The Matrix, not the movies themselves?
Jin
Uhh, pretty much.
Kinda yes and no, really.
Like, when New Eden's done.
When we've finished Isle Sierra and The Eden Nebula Project.
When all that's done and dusted...
I really want to make virtual reality a possibility, y'know?
Not shitty VR games where you're flipping burgers or playing with shitty cartoon dinosaurs, no I mean real "actual" virtual reality.
Like the Oasis from Ready Player One.
But, less about the potential for gaming and more about the potential for liveability, y'know?
Actual worlds we can "live" in.
Troye
Right.
Yugyeom
That's really interesting. You think you'll be able to do it?
Jin
Oh yeah, dude. We've actually been working on it behind the scenes for many years now actually.
It's more a matter of "when", rather than "if". You know what I'm saying?
Yugyeom
That's so cool. I can't wait to try it.
Jin
Thanks. I'm really excited to be honest.
But, no, The Matrix.
I love what these movies were trying to do... but...
I'm gonna be honest.
I think the Wachowskis are overrated hacks, y'know?
Yugyeom
Wow.
Jin
Honestly, they made like 'one' great film everybody loves and now all of a sudden people think they're untouchable.
I mean, have you ever 'seen' Jupiter Ascending?
The Matrix Revolutions?
The Matrix Resurrections?
What a huge waste of complete fucking time, dude.
I'm gonna say it. The Matrix sequels might have honestly been better off if Warner Brothers 'did' do the films without the Wachowskis in them.
They even jokingly mentioned that in the forth movie. That "we were gonna do the film with or without you."
And I'm like, "Well why didn't you then!?!"
Fucking assholes!
-Yugyeom laughs-
Troye
That's so interesting.
Like, even people who 'hate' the Matrix sequels don't hate the Wachowskis.
Like, none of the hate ever brought towards these movies is ever really pinned on them in anyway.
Jin
But why...?
They're the ones making these decisions.
Troye
I guess people just have a love, for what The Matrix is, rather than where it was going.
If that makes any sence?
Jin
Yeah, no, it does. That's the point I'm trying to get across.
It's like... Guillermo del Toro.
Everyone loves him, right?
The guy behind Pans Labyrinth?
...I swear that's like the 'only' good movie he's ever made. Like, "Ever!"
But people still praise him like an Aztec God on a totem pole just 'because' of that one film, and I'm like...
But every other film he's ever made is garbage...
Mid at best! Mid at fucking best!
Mark
Wow...
I've never heard anyone shit on Guillermo del Toro like you are Jin.
Are you sure you're not completely crazy?
Jin
Dude, worshipping a guy who's made one great movie and countless mediocre ones is crazy. I'm just saying it like it is, man.
Tarantino, Michael Bay, Zack Snyder, the Wachowskis...
They exist on a gimmick.
They don't make great movies, they make cult followings.
That's all they do, that's all they 'can' do, y'know?
Conan
Yeah, I get what you mean.
Jin
If I was to fix The Matrix films...
I would of made The Oracle the main villain.
Troye
Would you really?
Jin
Dude, think about it.
How much of a fucking head-trip would that be if the whole time The Oracle was manipulating both Neo "and" Agent Smith the whole entire time.
If Zion was part of The Matrix and everyone was being manipulated into fighting each other for the machines own gain.
That would of been "such" a good twist ending, man.
I mean, what possible reason would The Oracle even have to side with humanity?
She's an algorithm. She's part of the machine isn't she?
Would it not make sence if every single person controlling the Matrix was a sentient hivemind?
Why would she be siding with the human race? It makes no sence whatsoever!
Her entire being was engineered specifically to solve equations. She's The Matrix's Algorithm for shits sakes!
-Yugyeom laughs-
Mark
Yeah, I've heard a lot of people talk about that actually.
How they wish Zion was part of The Matrix and that humans being free was all part of an illusion.
Jin
That's because the Wachowskis are liberal garbage directors, dude!
There's "so" much missed potential in this film franchise, there really is.
I was "so" ready for a Matrix reboot. I so was.
All these Terminator reboots? Planet of the Apes?
All these constant Hollywood remakes.
I always said to myself, I wonder if a modern day Matrix reboot could actually work, y'know?
Like... under someone else's vision.
Could a modern day Matrix revival actually work?
And, what do we get?
Yugyeom
The Matrix Resurrections.
Jin
We get the fucking Matrix Resurrections, dude.
"Holy shit!"
What a huge colossal waste of everyone's cocking time and money.
I cannot "believe" they had the gall to waste all of our time, hopes and energy on that waste of a film.
My hell!
Your saviour burning in fucking hell, dude!
Your saviour nailed back on a cross, being poked by demons, burning in hell, man! Fuck...
Troye
Wow man...
Just... wow.
Jin
No, I mean it though.
Dude. Lana Wachowski can't even direct her own shit into a freaking toilet bowl.
What the hell were they thinking with this God damned movie!?
And those constant flashback scenes!?
Was this lady on morphine while directing this train wreck!? Was she shooting up in the bathroom, about to go fucking morbe!?
Where the hell was she going, dude!?
Right into a God damned canyon with this crazy new age hippie fucking script! That's where!!
And dude, don't even get me started on the Proto-Morpheus, whatever the fuck he was called.
Why not just get back Laurence Fishburne!? Or Hugo Weaving? Or CG them!?
They weren't even asked!?
The Hell!?
What the actual fuck were they thinking?!
Were they floating around the set on fucking cough syrup the entire time? Raving in their own heads like they're trance dancing around Zion?
Seriously, why anything!?!
Dude!! Why anything man!?! Why!?!
Troye
I'm just... letting Jin go off on his own.
I don't even think we're needed here.
I think Jin's got this.
Jin
You know what they should of done!?
They should of just made Bugs the main character.
Made the entire movie all about her.
Have it set years into the future where everyone is living in a new Matrix controlled by the How I met Your Mother guy.
Just have her trapped in The Matrix and fuck all the rest of it, dude.
Dude! Jessica Henwick was literally carrying this entire God damned stinker, man.
It's such a God damned fucking waste.
I mean... I love Keanu Reeves in Cyberpunk, and he was great in Something's Gotta Give...
But my God in Hell, he was like fucking Joe Biden in a campaign rally. Just... shuffling all over the God damn place in this dull fucking stinker.
Completely lost, no fucking clue where he is or what he's doing.
Like... why was he even here!?
Can you "not" even "do" a Matrix sequel without Keanu reeves in it!?
And Carrie-Anne Moss!!
How the "fuck" can she have kids in The Matrix!?!
Like... how does that even work anyhow!?
Mark
Umm...?
Jin
I swear I spent the whole God damned movie trying to figure out how she could even get pregnant while plugged into The Matrix.
I mean... did her husband just ejaculate into his pod and it somehow went through a pipe all the way several hundred miles into her uterus?
How does that even happen!?
And... wasn't she dead in the third film!?
Why, dude? Fucking... why!?
Yugyeom
Uhh, Jin? ...Alex?
Jin
Like, did The Matrix just tell her she's pregnant?
Make her fat, take her DNA and randomly generate some kids in a pod?
How the hell does childbirth even work in The Matrix anyway?
Seriously dude, I need to know.
Like... did they "Put" the child "In" her!?!
How would they even know how to code a child anyway!?
How would they code it's likeness in The Matrix and have it match the real world when it's face isn't even formed yet!?
Conan
Okay...
Jin
Like, dude. Imagine if the baby was Black?
Mark
Jin.
Jin
And the husband was freaking out about it.
Would The Matrix just code that baby as white?
And have the baby spend the rest of it's entire life thinking it's a fucking white guy named Steven?
Troye
Okay!
Jin
Imagine waking up from The Matrix and discovering you were black the entire time!
Wouldn't you freak the fuck out!?!
Mark
Uhhh...
Jin
I know I would!
I'd scream everyone out of their pods within a 15 mile radius dude.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!"
You take the freaking Asian away from me, I'll wake up all the God damn neighbours!
I'll wake up all those God damn kids in those pod farms and everything!
Fuck! Man! Every Machine in Matrix City would know exactly which pod to look for.
The one with the screaming sissy black guy in it!!
Mark
Okay! Jin?
I uhh, really think we should probably get back onto the main topic-...
Jin
Dude this is the main topic!!
I need to know where Matrix babies freaking come from, man!
This shit keeps me up at night!!
G-fuel crystals and everything!
Yugyeom
Wow...
Mark
Uhh, "moving on..."
Jin. You said before you liked The Animatrix films.
Did... do you wanna talk about those instead?
Jin
Only one, dude.
The one about the Asian girl living in The Matrix.
Where she goes to that glitch house that everyone thinks is haunted?
Yugyeom
Yeah. I love that one!
Beyond I think it's called!
Jin
Yeah!
That I love because you actually get to see The Matrix from someone else's perspective.
Like, here's the thing...
I "love" the idea of virtual worlds and virtual reality, and I always fantasized about what it's like, from the perspective of someone "living" in these worlds, y'know what I mean?
Conan
Yeah...?
Jin
Like... Free Guy for example, with Ryan Reynolds.
Dude, I've always fantasized about what it's like from an NPC's perspective, living in a GTA like world but not actually being aware that their in a GTA style world.
Like... their whole reality is just an illusion and they have no idea it's all fake, y'know?
Mark
You have a really interesting way of looking at the world, Jin.
Jin
Thank you!
But I mean it though!
Films like Dark City, the 13th floor, Tron, even Nirvana.
They fascinate me. They 'really' do.
I'll let you guys in on a dirty little secret.
Are you ready? This is gonna blow your mind.
New Eden... was actually inspired by GTA.
GTA San Andreas specifically.
Conan
Really?
Jin
Yeah. The idea behind Grand Theft Auto.
The idea that these people. These virtual simulated beings can live, exist in this "fake" algorithmic recreation of California.
Los Santos, Las Venturas, San Fierro...
And have "No" idea it's all fake...
Have "No" idea they can't even leave.
That their "Entire reality" is on a tiny island in the middle of nowhere, trapped on some server somewhere.
It truly fascinates me, man. It really does.
Yugyeom
Wow...
Jin
So it got me thinking...
What if we can use these ideals to create the perfect society?
To create a society that replicates Earth, that is isolated 'far' away from prying human eyes.
A society completely hidden in another plane of reality. Completely isolated in a small island nation 'we' control.
Then we take it further. Towns become cities, cities become counties, counties become countries.
What if we make more isolated nations that we all control, all separate from one another.
All under one umbrella that we have complete and total perfect control over.
That my friends... is New Eden.
Mark
Uhh... wow, Jin.
I mean...
I knew this conversation was gonna be crazy, but-...
Jin
It's not crazy, dude. It's progress.
Think about it.
The human race is an entire God damned mess.
Cultures clash. Countries at war. Liberals vs conservatives. A failing economy. Corrupt Politicians.
Lets just take all that, wipe the slate clean, rebuild society in our "own" perfect image.
Create small replicas of society that we control.
Cherry pick the best and brightest of human kind, and have them live in a society that "we" control.
No God. No Government. No language barrier. No cultural barriers.
Only TG Industries.
New Eden is just the start, man.
We are going to rebuild the entire God damn Universe in our own image.
We're not going to stop until we've taken every single square inch of reality.
And when we've done that. When there's no more space left... When every single square inch of reality itself is completely under our control.
Then the real fun begins.
Then we're gonna turn to the virtual.
We're gonna turn to create infinite worlds in virtual reality, and transcend reality itself.
Building endless worlds until the end of time itself.
700 billion years from now I'll still be here, leading us on this journey.
It's gonna be incredible man.
Every single one of us will be able to create our own worlds. Our own reality. Our own dreamscapes. Our own universe.
Hell! Multiple Universes! Millions!
Imagine owning a million Multi-verses that you spend millions upon millions of years creating?
Imagine being able to copy and paste your own Multi-verses and send them to your friends?
Imagine... dude! Imagine being able to rate your friends Multi-verses on social media.
Leave a like. Comment on their alien cultures. Visit their restaurants, watch their movies, read their books.
We'll all be Gods, commenting on our favourite Universes like we're browsing videos on fucking YouTube. It'll be incredible!
Absolutely fucking incredible!
Mark
Wow... Uhh, Jin we really need to wrap up this episode.
Okay guys-...
Jin
But seriously think about it though!
You can be God! Creating your own Universes for all eternity, and Yugyeom, Troye, Conan, Jay B... they can comment and like and share and subscribe to all the worlds and universes you create!
Wouldn't that just be fucking Shibby!?
Mark
Uhh... Jin?
Jin
Once we wipe out the entire human race, barbecue the planet and harvest the world for it's resources, think of what we can accomplish?
Think of all the wonderful things we can achieve once theres no more pesky life in the entire universe.
No God to stand in our way. No Jesus. Allah or whoever the whiny, wingey fuck!
Just us, dude.
Synthetic Hybrids, scolding and moulding the Universe to whatever the hell I want it to be. That's what.
New Eden is going to be fucking amazing, dude!
Just... absolutely fucking amazing!
God man, can't you just smell it?
That burning sensation of hybrid success?
Mark
Okay, Jin?
Jin
That's why I brought you all down here.
That's why I had all your families hybrinated so they could live in our perfect world.
We don't need a bunch of crusty old fucking suits telling us what to do. How to live, all that kind of shit.
Dude, fuck those fucking guys!
Old people are old and disgusting to look at anyhow.
The world "Needs" to be run by South Korean pop stars, man.
That's why you're all here.
"You" are the future leaders of humanity.
"You" and you alone!
The human race needs Idols they can trust.
Not a bunch of fucking filthy liberals in suits, crusty old Christians, religious nutjobs telling us what to do, how to live our own God damn lives and shit!?
Dude, fuck these fucking idiots. Fuck them and their organs!
Mark
Jin... I appreciate it, but...
Jin
I will "Never" bow down to anyone less intelligent than me, dude. "Never"
Why the hell would I? I'm the smartest person in the world, I already know everything.
Why the hell would I waste my time listening to those of lesser intelligence?
Mark
Jin...
Jin
See that's the problem with humanity.
They think with age comes wisdom. That their elders should be respected because they build the world they live in.
Well look where the fuck that landed you! In a world gone mad! A failing economy. Fat ugly disgusting feminists screeching about their whiny stupid problems.
Mass migration of third world smelly savages screaming about their abubu religion or whatever the fuck.
Crazy corrupt politicians thinking they're the fucking king and queen of cheese island, waving around a sceptre or some shit.
Mark
Jin.
Jin
I've yet to see it, man. Give me one good fucking reason.
Mark
Jin?
Jin
That's why the entire human race is so backwards.
Dude! If I can write an artificially intelligent program that in less than 5 minutes can replace an entire office building of about eighty to a thousand salary workers, then why the fuck would I ever listen to the opinions of a God damned mortal?
God, dude. And don't even get me started on those crazy fucking feminists.
Did you see Jimmy Kimmel crying over fucking Kamala Harris?
Fucking Mexican fur coats over here, Jesus Christ what a cuck!
Can you seriously believe America is run by these assholes?
Mark
Jin!
-Bangs desk with his fist-
Jin
And don't even get me started on Kier fucking Starmer.
Fucking, Boggles Goggles over here.
Jesus Christ. How the fuck has that asshole not been assassinated yet!?
Do the people of England even have anything else left to lose at this point!?
Those spineless fucks!
Mark
Jin!!!
Dude!!!
We've seriously got to end this!
Jin
Ahh... sorry! I rambled for a bit, didn't I.
Mark
Yeah! For kinda the whole entire episode actually.
Everyone's just been sat here. Not got a word in.
Jin
Ahhh, sorry, sorry. My bad...
My brain works a mile a minute so you guys gotta kinda keep up with me sometimes, y'know?
-Mark Exhales frustratingly-
Mark
Yeah...
Uhh guys. Thank you so much for being with us all here today. We-...
Jin
Oh wait! Wait!! Sorry! Sorry!
Mark
Uuuugghh! What!?
Jin
Sorry. Before you end this. I just wanted to ask real quick.
Did you guys have plans for Yu-gyeoms birthday this Sunday?
Mark
What do you mean?
Jin
Well I figured you guys at GOT 7 were all going to do something together as a group.
I... didn't wanna intrude, but I kinda have a gift I was hoping to give to you... if that's okay that is.
Yugyeom
Oh, really?
Jin
Yeah... I... was hoping to save this until your big day but... if it's okay?
I kinda wanted to give this to you now.
Yugyeom
Oh my God!!
Thanks Jin!
What is it?
Jin
Isn't it cool!?
It's an entire block of gold with your face on it!
Yugyeom
Wow!
Conan
Oh wow!
Troye
D... a... ...is that... gold??
Jin
Yeah. I've really been into investing in gold recently and started collecting gold bars.
Just a little hobby of mine I picked up, y'know?
Soccer. Tennis, Rugby... bars of gold.
Anyway I thought, Yu-gyeom. You're like solid gold to me, y'know?
So what better way to show it, than having your face engraved in a literal block of carat gold, dude!
Isn't that crazy?
Mark
Wow.
Yugyeom
Wow man. How much is this worth?
Jin
No idea. But it looks cool though, right?
I was thinking of giving these out as gifts like every time a friend of mine has a birthday.
I just give them a bar of solid gold with their face on it.
Isn't that crazy?
Troye
I... I'll be your friend.
Jin
Oh Troye, you're such a Charles Boyle.
Troye
A... what?
Jin
Doesn't matter.
But anyway, I got you this as well. I think you'll really like it.
Yugyeom
Oh my "God!" Wow...
Jin
Isn't it cool!? I had an entire block of gold turned into a solid gold sculpture of you.
Yugyeom
Me? Really!? Wow man...
Mark
Wow... How much did this all cost?
Jin
I've no idea.
Dude, when you've lived as long as I, you stop caring about the little things, y'know?
Troye
How old are you, Jin?
Jin
37.
Well... almost. Not quite.
But anyway. I hope you like it.
Yugyeom
I love it! Thank you Jin!
Jin
I really hope I get to see you on your birthday.
Dude! Did you know Yu-gyeom shares the same birthday as the Nostalgia Critic?
Doug Freaking Walker?
That's so crazy!!
Mark
I actually don't know who that is.
Jin
Emma Stone shares her birthday with Kris Wu as well. That creepy clammy crodger.
Mark
Uhhh Anyway guys. We're really gotta end tonight's episode.
Jin.
Thank you "so" much for coming on to talk about The Matrix. We really appreciate it.
Jin
It's my pleasure Mark.
Maybe someday I'll just buy The Matrix franchise outright and just make The Matrix a reality, y'know?
Really find out where Matrix babies come from.
Mark
uh-huh...
Jin
I still wanna buy the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise from Sega someday. Don't even get me started!
Oh, and don't even get me started on that freaking Matrix demo they released and won't even share with the world now!
That unreal engine demo.
Did you play it!?
Dude! Who the fuck do they think they are, taking that away from us before we even got a chance to play it!?
Nobody could even get a freaking PlayStation or Xbox when that demo was even a thing. Who the hell do they think they are!?
Liberal fucking cucks! Fucking Coomers!
They don't respect gaming history at all man, it's like that fucking PT demo!
Mark
Jin!!!!!
We've really gotta end this!
Jin
Ahhh no. I'm sorry. I...
I ramble on sometimes. I really can't help it.
I'm sorry man, I...
Mark
Ahhhgh... It's okay...
Jin... It's okay...
But we've really gotta end this...
Jin
Yeah, yeah... I'm sorry... I just... agh... I just...
Mark
It's okay...
We can talk afterwards...
Just, let us wrap things, and we can talk about anything. Okay?
Jin
Yeah, man... I...
Mark
It's okay, Jin...
We're just gonna wrap things up, then we can talk, okay?
-Jin exhales softly-
Jin
Yeah...
Mark
Ugh, Guys? Thanks for tuning in.
We really appreciate each and every one of you.
Thank you to my three amazing co-hosts.
Troye, Conan and Yu-gyeom.
Yugyeom
Thanks guys.
Mark
And to Jin. The Grand High Ambassador of TG Industries for sponsoring and coming onto this podcast.
Jin
Uhh... Grand 'Chief' Ambassador.
But no, it's totally my pleasure.
Thank you.
Mark
Right.
Guys?
Join us next time when we'll be having both Jeong-In from Stray Kids and Taehyung from BTS on the show where we'll be talking about Studio Ghibli films and what the future for Anime might be.
It should be really interesting.
Jin
Wait... Taehyung's on the next episode?
What... what has he been doing with himself lately?
Mark
I don't know.
Guys, thank you.
Conan
Bye guys!
Troye
Bye guys.
Yugyeom
Thanks guys.
Jin
Did... Taehyung mention me at all, by any chance?
Did... he say what he's doing now or...?
Mark
Jin. We've really gotta end this...
Bye everyone...
Jin
But...
