Viral Hit Episode 5 recap
Viral Hit Episode 5 is titled Friends, and opens with Snapper extending an offer to the Beauty Tips NewTuber Rumi as he asks her to be her producer, much to the disdain of Pakgo. Pakgo, disgusted by Snapper's opportunistic behaviour and the way he keeps betraying people for his own benefit, begins to pick on him. His classmates also look down on him as they dislike his deceitful actions, and do not help him.
As Pakgo’s infamy grows, so does his subscribers count, seemingly fueled by his increasingly antagonistic behavior. Seeking content for his channel, Pakgo enlists Snapper's help to bring Hobin to school for a video shoot. Snapper seeks out Hobin's mother for his whereabouts and is told of the genuine friendship Hobin shares with him. Overcome with guilt, Snapper warns Hobin not to come to school to avoid Pakgo's exploitation during Pakgo’s livestream.
However, Pakgo retaliates by physically assaulting Snapper. Hobin disregards Snapper's warning and enters the classroom, prepared to confront Pakgo. Hobin takes charge of the situation, handing his phone to Snapper and instructing him to livestream their confrontation. As Hobin engages Pakgo in a fight, Viral Hit Episode 5 transitions into a flashback, revealing Hobin's rigorous training regimen inspired by the Chicken Master's advice.

In the present, Hobin employs his newly acquired skills to outmaneuver Pakgo. He uses the calf kick, an MMA technique with great bursts of power directed at the calf, to strike Pakgo. Pakgo taunts him for missing, though one of Hobin's subscribers named Ding offers praise for his strategic use of the calf kick. Munseong also notes that this was the right move.
Hobin understands that Pakgo is much larger than him, and runs around the classroom to avoid getting caught. He also keeps employing his calf kick, though Pakgo quickly figures out that this is the only move Hobin knows how to use. With Pakgo’s attention on his legs, Hobin utilizes a well-executed overhand hook to take him out. Snapper, seeing Pakgo’s friends try to defend him, rises to defend him against Pakgo's goons, though they back off as Munseong intimidates them in Viral Hit Episode 5.
Munseong tells Hobin not to cry, though that doesn’t stop Hobin from bawling. Through tears, he asks his followers on NewTube to like and subscribe. In the aftermath of their fight, Pakgo's absence from school leads to a shift in his subscribers, who end up migrating to Hobin's channel. Grateful for their support, Hobin creates a thank-you video, expressing his appreciation for their loyalty.
Viral Hit Episode 5 concludes on a reflective note as Hobin visits his mother in the hospital, while Snapper gets annoyed upon realizing that the friend Hobin spoke fondly of was Munseong, not him. Internally, Hobin acknowledges Snapper as a flawed yet genuine friend.
