85 – Theater Festival (1)

“Oh no!”

From noble mtl dot com

“What is it? Why are you suddenly looking at me like a ghost?”

“No… When I heard that we should write a song together, it reminded me of the PTSD of that day. Anyway, did I hear it wrong?”

“As expected of someone who is good at making songs, you have clear ears. You heard me very well. CEO Baek Joon-young.”

“…… Damn it All the good days are gone.”

CEO Baek Joon-young looks serious and sighs deeply for some reason.

It sucks.

If anyone sees it, they will know that I forcibly(?) Overworked the CEO in the past.

“I don’t plan on making a song that long because I’m going to use it for a short while in the middle of the play anyway. One minute at most? Also, I don’t want a high-quality song like the drama OST, and unlike the last time, I’m not the main representative.”

“After… Anyway, it seems like I’m already in the studio in the artist’s mind. By the way, are you thinking of doing a musical at the youth theater festival?”

It’s a musical…….

In a way, that is also true.

It’s relatively vague to define, but if we had to define a musical, it’s a genre that puts dance and song on top of a theatrical base.

Fortunately, at the Korea Youth Theater Festival, there are no restrictions on the way of play. It seemed to be just for the purpose of seeing the infinite possibilities that young people can unfold freely.

Of course, among all the teams that have participated in previous competitions, there would have been no team that sang during the play.

That was natural.

Would that be easy for high school students?

Singing songs in the middle of a play for high school students who are just gaining experience…….

From the standpoint of the judges, it’s a perfect situation to start with the idea that you’re good at acting.

But it is not difficult for our club. Rather, it is an easy level, and you can decorate a more impactful stage.

Because there are literally fraud-level members who are good at acting and can sing very well on stage.

At least two of them.

But as everyone knows, I’m not very talented or knowledgeable in music. The last time I worked on Fly High’s OST, in fact, I only gave feedback on the atmosphere and lyrics of the song, and the song made by CEO Baek Joon-young.

So, no matter how good I am among the members, it must be a bit strange to suddenly start composing music.

In the first place, it is too greedy to have CEO Baek Joon-young make all the songs from start to finish.

What I want is not a high-quality song made by a professional, but a song with a ruggedness that matches the sentiment of the youth competition.

That’s why I’d like to borrow the help of one of the theater and film department members.

For your reference, this decision was made because there was a member of our team who had a hobby of composing.

After practice on Saturday, on the way back to their respective homes, I stopped a female student.

“Senior Yeojin. Can I talk to you for a second?”

“…… Uh, um? Did you call me?”

A female student corrects her round glasses at my call and looks at me in a puzzled way.

This woman’s name is Han Yeo-jin.

She was one of the few female members in our club, and a senior in the second year of the Department of Applied Music, who is currently in charge of the acoustics.

“What? Are you betting on Yeojin right now?”

At that time, seeing that I wanted to talk to Han Yeo-jin, Song Ga-ram looked at us with an interesting face.

Thinking back, I remember that it was Song Garam who brought Han Yeo-jin to the theater and film department.

Anyway.

“It’s just because we have something to discuss about acoustics.”

“Hmm… Even if I understand what you are saying, I don’t think it’s over there, right?”

Hmm? What do you mean?

I followed Garam Song’s gaze and looked behind her.

And there, I could see the four people pretending not to be there and concentrating on a conversation between me and Han Yeo-jin.

In order, they were Seol So-young, Lee Da-hye, Park Ha-joon, and Cha Moo-sik.

… ….

I can say with confidence that I haven’t done anything remarkable lately.

I only talked to CEO Baek Joon-young when the members were concentrating on the play, and we were far from each other.

So there’s no way the voices of the conversation could have been overheard by the members.

But I don’t know what kind of people these days have so much interest in me.

Why is Park Ha-joon in the middle of it again, and why is Cha Moo-sik laughing? …

Ha… Done.

I’d rather die than get sick just like CEO Baek Joon-young said.

There was a brief incident, but now the only people left in JYB were me, Han Yeo-jin, and Lee Da-hye.

Suddenly, Lee Da-hye asked me if I could wear it between my teeth, but it didn’t really matter. I’m going to get some help from CEO Baek Joon-young about this case, but if she’s Lee Da-hye, she won’t have much doubt. Because she’s already seen her working together in the past.

In the first place, this was something she needed to know.

I looked at Han Yeo-jin again.

She was crossing her fingers as if the situation was quite awkward.

I wonder if it’s close to the feeling that something is finally coming…….

“Pi, I will gladly accept your feedback!”

A Yeojin lowered her head and opened her mouth first.

…… Feedback?

Ah, I think I roughly understand what that means.

If you think about it, there has been almost no feedback on sound until now.

I don’t know if I have a good sense or I’m quick-witted, because I felt like I was good at sound.

“It’s because I want to talk about the feedback later and ask the senior right now.”

“…… Ask?”

“That…… It’s a bit sudden, but would you like to compose a song?”

“Come on, composing?! What is that…… !”

Han Yeo-jin’s eyes widen as if she was startled by the completely unexpected content.

I understand.

I am surprised enough that he asked me to compose without any proper explanation.

“But where should I write a song?”

Dahye Lee, who was just listening to the conversation, asked me with a puzzled expression.

“Yes Da-hye, you should sing. On the day of the competition.”

“…… Eh?”

I explained my plan to them both.

How to make Kim Mi-so, or Da-hye Da-hye, shine even more than she does now, befitting her status as the main character?

“… ….”

Dahye Lee listened to my plan and pondered for a while.

Actually, I am in her position to apologize to her.

To put what I just said bluntly, it means that you don’t shine as much as Park Ha-joon and Seol So-young on stage through acting alone.

However, she only showed a shallow smile towards me with a dark expression.

Then she just said:

“If I do what you said, only I will be remembered in people’s heads, is that really okay?”

Confidence.

Lee Da-hye’s words and smile were full of her confidence that it would happen unconditionally.

Also, there was no hint of displeasure in what I said.

She seemed to be aware of her own shortcomings compared to Park Ha-joon and Seol So-yeong. That’s why I think I was thinking of doing anything from the beginning to fill it.

The more I knew about it, the more I thought Lee Da-hye was amazing.

It must not be so easy to have such a positive mindset at that age…….

“That… I’m sorry for interrupting you when the atmosphere was good…… I never said I would.”

Han Yeo-jin, who had forgotten for a while, struggled to open her mouth.

To be honest, if the other side didn’t listen to my request, it was a plan and everything was meaningless.

“But why me? … ?”

Suddenly, Han Yeo-jin asked why he chose her.

Lee Yoo-ra…….

I remembered the self-introduction time of the theater and film department that started under the leadership of Park Ha-joon.

At that time, Yeo-jin, who appeared a little timidly in front of her teammates, said this.

“During her self-introduction, the senior told her directly. My hobby is composing.”

“Yeah, remember that?”

“Sure. At best, there are only 12 members, but I remember them all.”

As a student, composing may be quite difficult.

However, the Practical Music Department at Hanbit Arts High School is a little different.

In fact, during the performance evaluation, they take the test with their own compositions.

Basically, it means that in order to survive there, composing is not a realm of talent, but a realm of necessity.

You’ve probably already gone through that process several times in your sophomore year.

Perhaps he had been making it even before entering Hanbit Art High School.

In that sense, being able to say that my hobby is composition can be seen as a sign that I am quite confident in that direction.

Well, maybe…… ?

“Anyway, I don’t want perfect, good songs. Just have the senior make a song freely according to the order I said.”

“That… I’m asking just in case, until when is the deadline…… ?”

“Of course, at least five days before the competition. Lee Da-hye will also take time to memorize the lyrics.”

“Well, then you only have about a week left! I’m sorry, but composing is not a simple task that can be created in a day or two!”

…… ?

Write…….

That’s strange.

Can’t that take that long?

“Then, would it be a little different if there was someone to help with the work?”

“…… Helper?”

From noble mtl dot com

I immediately introduced CEO Baek Joon-young to Han Yeo-jin, who had a questionable expression on her face.

“Seo, is it possible that the person who said he will help is CEO Bae and Baek Joon-young?”

“Yes! Are you lacking?”

“That, what nonsense! Gee, I’m truly honored! CEO Baek Joon-young!”

“hahahaha. I wish you well too.”

Unexpectedly, Han Yeo-jin seemed interested in working with CEO Baek Joon-young.

Well, CEO Baek Joon-young is literally a successful musician. From Han Yeo-jin’s point of view, who majored in music, of course, she must be a person she can’t help but respect.

I glanced at CEO Baek Joon-young. He noticed my gaze and looked at me too.

“Huh.”

It’s like I’m this far among musicians! An arrogant expression as if to claim that.

…… Something seemed less fortunate today.

It was then.

“Yeah, but CEO Baek Joon-young. What’s your relationship with Seo Eun-woo, so you’re helping me this much?”

Han Yeo-jin poses a question to us with an expression as if she doesn’t understand the situation.

Of course, this is not an unexpected situation.

So…….

“Kuhm! Now, should I explain what our relationship is? Nephew.”

CEO Baek Joon-young is starting the engine just like that time.

I had already had experience fooling someone with this, so I opened my mouth with a smile as shameless as possible.

“CEO Baek Joon-young. You are my uncle.”

“You and CEO Baek Joon-young have a family relationship?”

Me and CEO Baek Joon-young nodded at the same time.

“Senior, think about it. What is the reason why Da-hye and I can be friends in the first place?”

“Ha, that’s right. If there is no background like that, there’s no way you could be close to Lee Da-hye.”

“…… ?”

No……

I’m sure I said that with that intention in the first place…….

Those words sound like a bit of a wound, but am I the only one who thinks so?
