EP19 – Two self-respecting geniuses (15)
98.
“Isn’t that a song you wrote yourself?”
“I guess so. amazing.”
“therefore. You sing so well and you’re even good at composing music. “What happened to the balance?”
In the audience, people talk about Jinhoo Jeong’s performance they just saw. And most of the stories were favorable reviews.
Ha-Jun Yoon and Tae-Young Kim received harsh criticism, but that was only because their level was too high. From the perspective of general students, Jeong Jin-hoo’s performance was worthy of high praise.
“Ha, can’t we just end this here?”
“So, I don’t want to hear one more thing for no reason.
Jinhoo Jeong smiles at the conversation between the audience. Okay, look at this. That sibling is unable to acknowledge herself because of her pride.
I heard my performance was okay.
The atmosphere in the audience was going as Jeong Jin-hoo wanted. It’s not just about giving favorable reviews to Jeong Jin-hoo’s stage, but being completely satisfied with the stage itself.
I am satisfied with the performance and the atmosphere flows like I just want to get up. And this is why Jeong Jin-hoo changed the order with Yoon Soo-yeon.
Originally, the last stage of the freshman concert should have been Jeong Jin-hoo’s stage. However, the order was changed by Jeong Jin-hu at the request of Yun Su-yeon and her teacher.
There is only one reason. This is to erase the presence of Yoon Soo-yeon by satisfying her audience by presenting her own overwhelming performance.
And the plan worked out exactly. The mood in the audience right now is overwhelmingly in favor of Jeong Jin-hoo. And this atmosphere will not change easily.
Well, I don’t know if Yoon Soo-yeon shows a miraculous performance on a great stage.
That won’t happen.
“Hey, if this goes on, it’s going to be difficult for Yoon Su-yeon.”
“therefore. “I feel sorry for Yoon Soo-yeon.”
“Well, it’s still second place so you never know. Her older brother may have made the song. He said his skills were no joke. “The teachers always said he was a legend.”
“Ah, that was overkill. Even though I’m a student, how can I say that it’s like a singer’s concert? “They just went overboard to create a sense of crisis in us by making comparisons.”
“I guess that’s true, right?”
“Let’s just sing it quickly and get it over with. “I want to go home quickly.”
Perhaps because we have heard 79 people sing so far, the overall mood of the students is disorganized. It was not uncommon to even see students looking disinterested.
‘stupid guys’
Lim Yeon-ji looked dumbfounded at the students’ reaction. Losing interest? Is the result obvious? Also, Hajun Yoon is a bubble? Do you guys seriously believe Jinhu Jeong’s story?
The arrogant teachers at Seolwon Arts High School themselves referred to him as a ‘golden rider’ and said that he was one of the best students among them. How can they think like that?
Anyway, I don’t like Jeong Jin-hoo or the others. Lim Yeon-ji raised her head and looked at the stage.
Black shadows are moving busily on a dark stage where the lights are not turned on yet. What is that? What are you installing?
Now that I think about it, I think I heard that Hajun Yoon uses various props when directing the stage.
Soon, the people who were busy moving on stage seem to have completed all preparations and go down to the stage. Yoon Soo-yeon, who was left alone on the stage, exhaled, “Whoa.”
Soon the lights will come on and the song will start. Indeed, can I do well? Sooyeon Yoon looks at the audience with an anxious expression.
Soon, Su-yeon Yoon found the person she was looking for in the audience and looked in that direction. Hajun Yoon and Gohan Han. The two were looking at us with similar expressions.
Because the light isn’t on, I can’t see myself clearly. Those two are looking at me. That fact gave strength to Yoon Su-yeon’s fist.
‘Yes, you can.’
Simply, beat Jeong Jin-hoo. That’s not the story. What Sooyeon Yoon says she can do now means being more perfect, that is, surpassing what she has done so far.
Suyeon Yoon nods. At the same time, her lights came on and she brightened up her otherwise dark stage.
‘door?’
At the same time, two doors installed on the stage caught my eye. What is he? Are you even using props like that? The students look dumbfounded.
On the other hand, Kim Tae-young tapped Yoon Ha-jun’s shoulder with an expression that said he was right.
“You say you don’t care about your younger brother’s performance or anything. “When did you prepare something like that?”
“What did I do?”
“Who else but you would direct the stage, even using props like that?”
Hearing Taeyoung Kim’s words, Hajun Yoon let out a sigh and cleared his throat. As expected, is it too obvious? Well, I guess I’m the only one who uses props to direct the stage at events like this.
Because singing and directing on stage are completely different. There is a good reason why Ha-Jun Yoon’s performances so far are called legendary.
And the teachers and Kang Seong-hoon, who knew this very well, looked at the stage with expectant expressions. In their opinion, the first graders’ performance this year was, to put it mildly, very boring overall.
There is no special stage direction, and there is no student with as overwhelming skills as Han Go-yo. But now, a student has finally appeared with a production worth watching.
He is even Yoon Ha-jun’s younger brother.
There’s no way I’m going to show a disappointing performance.
At a time when the reactions of students and teachers were polarizing, a song began to play. Yun Su-yeon bowed her head once to the bright melody that slowly flowed.
Let’s think. How can I sing this song more perfectly? Let’s imagine. In the past, I would have thought about how Han Goyo would have sung this song.
But not anymore. What Sooyeon Yoon is thinking about right now is how ‘I’ can sing this song ‘perfectly.’
Not someone, not imitating someone else.
Thinking about your own originality.
Sooyeon Yoon raises her head and starts singing.
-I have never doubted myself.
Sooyeon Yoon’s unique, mysterious voice reminiscent of dawn fog. It fills the small performance hall. And at the same time, the atmosphere in the audience changed.
“ah.”
Someone made a sound and quickly covered it. The audience’s expressions change. The audience, who had been showing disinterest until just a moment ago, now looked surprised and expectant.
-I realized I was just like them.
Slow tempo, bright melody, and depressing lyrics that don’t match.
They mix together to create a strange harmony.
‘amazing.’
Looking at Yoon Soo-yeon like that, Lim Yeon-ji smiled. Of course, it’s Suyeon. You changed the mood of the audience in just one verse.
People look at Yoon Soo-yeon as if they are fascinated. Jeong Jin-hu looks surprised, but then she contorts her face with her fierceness. Whether she knew it or not, Sooyeon Yoon started moving on her stage while singing her song.
-I thought I was very talented.
Su-yeon Yoon opened the first door that was installed while singing. She then carefully took her steps and passed through the door.

at the same time,
The lighting has changed.
From pleasantly warm orange lighting to cold, subdued blue lighting. It’s not just the lighting that has changed. Songs also began to change.
The tempo becomes faster, and the melody becomes more melancholy.
And the emotions became a little heavier.
-It was just a misunderstanding.
There is nothing.
In order not to be defeated by it, not to be pushed aside. Suyeon Yoon sang with all her might. Then she looked at Ha-jun Yoon in the audience.
Before singing, Suyeon Yoon had a lot to worry about. How can she sing this song more perfectly?
Even though I successfully completed the recording and received praise from my brother for doing a good job. Sooyeon Yoon was not satisfied with her.
This isn’t enough. I haven’t completely captured this song yet. A little more. Just a little more. I would be able to bring this song to life perfectly.
What is lacking for that?
I just kept thinking about that.
What did you think when your brother sang this song? Is it not enough to think about it? Should I sympathize with and accept my brother’s feelings?
but.
‘I don’t want to do that.’
How can we sympathize with and accept this song? For Yoon Soo-yeon, Yoon Ha-jun is an object of admiration and a genius. How on earth are you supposed to sympathize with a song where a person like that says he is not a genius?
This may be a selfish thing to say. Those words may be cruel to my brother. But Yoon Soo-yeon did not want to see her brother like that.
‘They called me a genius.’
Ha-jun Yoon always said that to Su-yeon Yoon. You are a genius. I have talent. I think you can become a great singer in no time. And Yoon Soo-yeon completely believed in Yoon Ha-jun’s words.
Yes, I’m a genius.
My brother, who is greater than anyone else, called me a genius, so I will remain a genius. And a man named Ha-jun Yoon who recognized this genius before anyone else and raised him.
He’s a greater person.
-Why do you live with such a topic?
Should I ask someone?
You don’t have to ask anyone. I’ll tell you. From now on, as I sing your songs, I, not anyone else, will let you know that you are a great person.
Sooyeon Yoon is currently denying Hajun Yoon on stage. She denies every single one of Ha-jun Yoon’s concerns and her own thoughts expressed through her songs.
Sooyeon Yoon looks at Hajun Yoon.
Hajun Yoon was also looking at Suyeon Yoon.
What is your brother thinking now? Does he think he ruined his song? Or will he think I’m being cocky?
But it can’t be helped. In order to sing this song more perfectly, I think I have to be honest with my heart. Because I don’t want to sing while lying to myself.
It’s okay to call him a fool.
It doesn’t matter if you call me an idiot.
At this moment, Sooyeon Yoon was expressing her feelings very honestly through song. My brother was the one who pushed me to become a singer.
So, when my brother stops, it is my job, not anyone else, to push him from behind.
Suyeon Yoon takes a step forward. From the first door to the second door. Reaching out her hand, she grabs the doorknob and turns it with all her might to open the door.
Suddenly, the door opened and a very brief breeze blew. Suyeon Yoon’s hair is flowing. Her lighting changes. From blue lighting that seems submerged in the deep sea to warm sky blue with mixed lights.
-It’s not like the world is changing.
Although the scenery you are looking at does not change.
Soo-yeon Yoon opens the second door and sings with all her might. Now the audience is completely immersed in Yoon Soo-yeon’s song. People’s expressions become distorted.
Look at that, brother.
People are surprised when they hear our song.
After all, my brother is amazing.
And Hajun Yoon’s expression changed. From an expression that I didn’t know what he was thinking to a smile as if I had lost. Suyeon Yoon also smiles at that expression.
The dark and gloomy melody becomes brighter. The tempo slowed down again, but it somehow felt more cheerful, perhaps because of the gloomy melody that had been playing before.
And right after that, Sooyeon Yoon’s voice began to shake. Should I say that I was crying and screaming? If you listen to it, it sounds like a child whining.
With that voice, Sooyeon Yoon spits out the last lyrics.
-It’s still raining.
Now I’ll look forward to tomorrow.
The song ends with the last lyrics muttered as if telling a story rather than singing. The lights go out. Along with that, Yoon Soo-yeon disappears from the stage.
And at the same time, admiration erupted from the audience. Lim Yeon-ji called out Yoon Soo-yeon’s name in a loud voice, making a fuss about her, and the audience applauded.
“What is it, Suyeon Yoon? “That’s crazy!”
“No, this is a song. Hajun Yoon made it, right?”
“Who said it was a bubble or something? “It really doesn’t make sense.”
The audience praises Yoon Soo-yeon and Yoon Ha-jun with surprised expressions, as if asking when they showed no interest in Soo-yeon Yoon or when they ignored Ha-jun Yoon.
And it was a stage that had no choice but to be like that. The lighting and melody change along with the performance of opening the two installed doors.
And the mysterious voice of Yoon Soo-yeon and the emotional delivery that somehow makes your heart flutter when you listen to it. It is different from Jeong Jin-hoo’s stage, which was simply admired.
Something like this. I have to say that my heart aches when I look at it. It was a stage that left a deep, lingering feeling that made me feel like crying.
The audience continues to buzz. The expressions of the audience, which had been looking tired, changed, as if asking when they were satisfied with the performance or when they had lost interest.
I want to see the stage one more time. I am not satisfied. I want to enjoy it more. It’s tiring and difficult, but it doesn’t matter as long as I can listen to that song.
“That’s amazing.”
In response to the audience’s reaction, Goyo Han expressed his honest feelings. When she helped Sooyeon Yoon, the relief she felt disappeared and a strong sense of crisis came over her.
But there is no ‘unpleasure’ there. In Yun Soo-yeon’s current appearance, she cannot see herself. Sooyeon Yoon no longer uses herself.
Sooyeon Yoon’s originality was discovered. Really. He’s a great kid. Goyo Han has never seen a child grow so quickly in his life.
However, we cannot just admire it forever. If we continue like this, we will be caught up. But we can’t lose yet.
No, not yet.
I can’t lose to anyone.
To be next to Hajun Yoon, to sing his songs. He must not be defeated by anyone. There are 3 months left until Singer Star.
‘A little more.’
It’s dangerous like this. In order not to be eaten by that child, you must complete something of your own.
“Yeah, that’s great. My little brother.”
At that time, Hajun Yoon, who was next to him, responded to Han Goyo’s words. Then he looked at the stage with a smiling expression. The lights are off so you can’t see the shape clearly. As if Suyeon was there.
From Ha-jun Yoon’s perspective, Soo-yeon Yoon’s stage now was a stage beyond his imagination. Really, Sooyeon always surprises me.
Even when recording, I was surprised by the incredible growth rate, but on stage, I surprised myself by showing a side that surpassed what was shown in the recording.
In the past, I was drawn to the song, but now, rather than being pulled by the song, the song is pushing me from behind. Huh, sighing lightly, Hajun Yoon shakes his head.
I am proud of Sooyeon’s growth, but at the same time, I feel that it cannot continue like this. If this continues, there will soon be limits to how much we can help Suyeon. We will not be able to keep up with Suyeon’s talent and will end up holding ourselves back.
Of course, I thought that day would come someday. Not yet. It can’t be like that anymore. At least, we need to help Suyeon until she stands tall as a singer and is recognized by people.
Hajun Yoon stood up. Following Yoon Ha-jun, Han Go-yo and Kim Tae-young also stand up. The next stage is a festival, and right after that is a singer star.
There is no time to stay like this.
“See you later.”
Goyo Han muttered that as he looked at the empty stage. And then, together with Kim Tae-young and Yoon Ha-jun, they were the first to leave the small concert hall. And other students followed their lead and went to the small performance hall.
The students take steps with regret and share stories about Soo-yeon Yoon’s performance. In that loud noise.
Jeong Jin-hoo was still sitting in the audience.
“······Nonsense.”
What did I just see? I don’t understand. Jeong Jin-hoo did not consider ‘conveying emotions’ important. He thought that it would only get in the way of the song, whether it was conveying emotion or immersion.
A stage that is overly emotional and brings tears to your eyes. I thought they only made people tired, that they were excuses made by people who were technically lacking or lacked talent.
So what is the stage now? Of course, the most important basics. So, if you consider many things, starting with vocalization, you are the winner.
Yes, technically he won. But why are people only talking about Yoon Soo-yeon? Why are you making such a sad expression?
Why are you satisfied with my song, but now you look disappointed and want to hear more? And why do I keep thinking about listening to this song again?
Jeong Jin-hoo raised his fist as hard as he could and hit the chair hard with it. I don’t understand. In her head she thinks she has won, but her heart is filled with an overwhelming sense of defeat.
At a time when Jeong Jin-hoo was being weighed down by an unknown sense of defeat, Yoon Soo-yeon came down from the stage. An empty audience seat with only Jeong Jin-hoo left alone.
Yun Su-yeon looked at it with a regretful expression. She wanted to see more of the cheers she heard on stage and the faces of people who praised her and liked her performance.
‘Because this is not the end.’
But it’s okay. Because this stage is not over. No, far from the end, this is only the beginning. This is the first time I’ve performed a song that was my own and not copied by anyone else.
So, now is the start.
Suyeon Yoon looked at her hands. His hands are sweaty. But somehow, rather than feeling bad, this sweat just feels precious.
Grasp that clammy hand.
“What are you.”
While trying to enjoy the afterglow, a familiar voice interrupts the afterglow. Hearing that voice, Yoon Soo-yeon frowned and looked at Jeong Jin-hu, the source of her voice.
“what.”
“What was that stage just now?”
Yoon Su-yeon looked dumbfounded at Jeong Jin-hu’s unexpected words. Why is he having a fight all of a sudden? Oh, that’s right. Now that I think about it, I had an argument with him.
I got help from Goyo and was so focused on singing that I completely forgot about that fact. No, apart from that, she was ignoring the existence of Jeong Jin-hu.
Yoon Soo-yeon was wondering what to say to Jeong Jin-hoo. She made a smiling face. I don’t really like her for swearing at her brother, but I feel good about it now.
Let’s try to tell the story as nicely as possible.
“This is a song written by my brother who can’t even dream of you.”
Now do you understand the difference in levels? Soo-yeon Yoon added that with her smiling face, passed by her Jeong Jin-hu and headed toward the door of the small performance hall.
I don’t have time to be like this here and now. In order to catch up with my brother and Han Go-yo, I have to be diligent. Because those people will never settle.
So Soo-yeon Yoon left the small performance hall,
Jeong Jin-hoo remained alone in the small performance hall.
