063. …I’ll do it for you.

[…what did I decide to do?]

don’t you remember?

Well, I thought it might be because I was asleep, so I explained it again to confirm.

[ah. We promised to go to karaoke together later.]

I was worried that I might have a schedule during the day.

I knew that there would be a reunion at night, so I planned to go back before that, but…

[Aha! I see! like!]

The jagged pitch of the broken words felt similar to the tone during the broadcast.

what?

[What time do I have to go home by any chance?]

Ask about a schedule that you did not ask but know about.

[That one… 7 o’clock? I think that would be fine.]

[Then, is it okay if we go out for dinner?]

[It’s possible if you’re going to see it near your house anyway.]

[okay. Then… Shall we see it around 3 o’clock?]

It was the perfect time to eat early after stopping by karaoke.

[yes.]

[okay. Then see you later.]

I hung up the phone and returned my gaze to the computer monitor.

“Hmm.”

The open window is the sound source site.

Actually, I decided to go because Doa said she would go with me, but I rarely went to karaoke with anyone.

There were times when they were rushed around in groups and stayed inside, but it seemed like they never went alone or together.

There was only one song that we practiced.

It was because after going several times as a group, the first round had a strange atmosphere where everyone seemed to have to sing one song at a time.

After one round, it seems like a lot of kids who like to sing in earnest now sing, and I just had to play tambourines until I left…

However, the case was different now.

How to distribute…

I wanted to give Doa 20,000 won and ask her to keep singing.

But I also knew that it shouldn’t be like that.

Because this wasn’t a fan meeting with Lucatan, it was a couple’s date.

I guess I should sing a little too…

Even if I looked down the popular charts, there were not many songs I knew.

When I played it, it seemed like I had heard it somewhere, but it was not enough to ask me to practice this right away and sing it at a karaoke room.

Unfortunately, I was tone deaf.

He had no talent for singing at all.

Having had no choice but to give up on learning the latest popular songs, I started digging through songs that were about 5-10 years old.

Roughly before I became obsessed with subcultures.

Wouldn’t it be possible to play the music that came from the car my mom and dad drove me to?

As I hum the lyrics, the memories of my childhood come to mind.

Music is a very strange medium.

Just by listening to that song, you’re like, ‘Ah. It was like that at the time’ because it was drawn just right.

When the song that we all sang together on the elementary school field trip started playing, at some point I was back to little Han Tae-min.

“Does it seem too framed?”

Still, I thought I could do this, so I wrote down the title on a notepad on my phone.

Speaking of the age difference between Doa and me, I’m only 2 years old, so you know these songs right?

If I said I didn’t know something, it would hurt my heart.

I was relieved only after filling in about 10 songs, and I calmly waited for 3:00 to meet her.

* * *

Doa Kim. 21 years old.

A craftsman who goes to coin karaoke alone.

It’s a song I always sing, but today was different.

The day I go to karaoke with my first boyfriend.

After scrolling through the playlist, I got a headache.

What song do you like

Do you like soft ballads?

Or is it a female idol song?

Seeing the chatting on the air, it seems like a complete mess, but I don’t think they would like it if I sang something like this from an anime.

Since we were supposed to meet in front of the house, I crumpled up my sneakers with just five minutes left.

I tried to dress as comfortably as possible.

It was because it reminded me of the last DVD room disaster.

Don’t just catch a cold by pretending to dress nicely.

Power is given only when it is needed.

I went to a coin karaoke room, but I felt like nothing would happen if I dressed up excessively.

Finally, standing in front of the mirror, straightening my hair, I pushed the front door forward.

As I descended the stairs, the one waiting for me was Taemin oppa, leaning against the wall with his head down.

I must have been looking at my phone with so much concentration that I pushed through the glass door, but my brother still didn’t look at me.

“What are you looking at?”

Out of curiosity, I sneaked up and tried to peek at the screen.

“Oh! what!”

As if really surprised, my brother hurriedly took a few steps back and put the phone in his pocket.

“what. When did you come?”

“Did you just come out?”

“If you come out, you should talk.”

“Eh. That’s why I just called.”

What did you see that surprised you?

“So what were you watching?”

“It’s nothing.”

“Then shouldn’t I say more?”

Several possibilities run through my mind.

The most powerful one, too.

“…Have you seen Luca?”

“ah. yes.”

A heartache comes up that I don’t know what.

Obviously Luca is right for me.

“Today, then, film me singing.”

okay. Wouldn’t it be like this?

Holding my brother’s hand, I stared straight into his deep black eyes.

“Not Luca.”

not me

“Take a picture of Doa singing.”

Really take a picture of me singing.

My ears are hot.

oh Still, the 3rd person was a bit over-the-top.

If you’re someone who doesn’t like aegyo or disgust, it’s sure to have been a cold reaction, but the other person was a 12-month subscriber.

You’re not going to see that badly!

I was waiting for an answer in embarrassment.

“…Then maybe.”

My brother’s fingertips tremble.

“Can you do the OST for the cartoon you briefly sang last week?”

…what did you do last week?

Searching for memories, I wondered if this was the case, so I asked him.

“…I’m aiming for an idol OST?”

“yes. I really wanted to hear the full version…”

My brother was still looking down at the floor as if he was ashamed of what he said.

no. You said you would sing me a song, but among so many songs, that’s it.

ah… really…

It was a song that contained all kinds of cheesy Japanese words such as Moe, Kyun, and Heart.

It was a song that I only hummed because it was difficult even after it was aired.

I felt like if I sang something to the end, I would lose something precious as a human being.

“ah. Is it like that too…? sorry.”

“…I’ll do it for you.”

Because I thought love was like that.

Because I thought it was to turn a blind eye to many things under the name of specialness.

“…instead.”

However, when I thought about cancer again, I just didn’t like it at all.

“My brother’s messenger profile picture. Please replace it with my picture.”

“Messenger?”

“yes.”

I thought this was a good condition.

“It is not impossible. do you want to do that?”

It wasn’t that I wanted to do it from the beginning after dating.

It was only after Ji-hee appeared that I had this thought.

I thought I needed a painting.

The clear stamp of Taemin’s older brother’s Kim Do-ah’s boyfriend.

Dating would have spread all over the school anyway.

Since this happened, I wanted to officially declare that my brother was my man.

Because my brother was a very popular person.

In case other women contact me again…

“…it can not?”

This time, in reverse, I noticed.

Also, I was afraid that I would look like an obsessive kid if I did this.

“Hmm…”

My brother, who stroked his chin with his thumb and forefinger, nodded.

“Then add one more requested song.”

My brother just thought that the corner he was really worried about was unique.

* * *

Coin Karaoke was surprisingly only accessible from the opposite side of the bus stop on the main road.

Usually, it is convenient to have infrastructure concentrated in one place, but how did it come to be in such a remote place alone?

“brother. Have you been here?”

After exchanging bills at the vending machine, Doa put 1,000 won bills in my hand.

“no.”

“Doesn’t Kono come often?”

“ah. I’m not the type of person who likes to sing that much.”

“Oh yeah…?”

Doa notices if she is sorry for bringing me here.

I shook my head to mean okay.

“No no. Did I come to watch you sing?”

“But it’s a bit like that when I sing alone.”

“I will sing too.”

He even made a list at home to sing.

“Really? Isn’t that far-fetched?”

“uh. So let’s go play comfortably.”

The two of us entered the innermost room.

Doa, who was sitting inside, grabbed me as I tried to sit on the other side and tapped the seat next to me.

“Sit here.”

“Isn’t it narrow?”

“I like this, though.”

Enough space for your shoulders to fit snugly together.

The scent of Doah’s shampoo stung my nose.

“…should I go first?”

Doa looks up at me while holding the remote control.

“Do whatever you feel comfortable with. I can do it first.”

“ah. Then, would you like to sing first until I choose what to do with your profile picture?”

“okay. What.”

Receiving the remote control, I reserved a song I always sang and started singing.

“Hmm… Hmm…!”

ringing echo.

oh What makes you nervous about this?

Still, I managed to smoothly complete the first song without incident, and looked at the seat next to me.

Doa keeps looking back at the two photos that look the same.

“…don’t you sing?”

“Would you like to sing just one more song?”

“ah. yes.”

With a very serious voice, I sang a new song again.

I was practicing at home. Are you okay?

I was curious about Doa’s reaction, so I glanced at her in between, but her eyes were fixed on the phone.

It didn’t even show any signs of moving.

And that’s how the second song comes to an end.

“Do you want to do it now?”

“no. I… this…”

Doa frowned, took a short deep breath, and showed me the screen of her cell phone.

“What do you think came out cuter?”

They both look the same, can’t you just sing a song?

“…First?”

Angry Pingtukdan Con was urgently needed.
