Singer Kwon Seol-ha told me his story for quite some time.
music and life.
About life and experiences.
Seolha said that the lyrics of ⌜TEST⌟ were very relatable.
The person who went up to the test table every day and was evaluated was a celebrity.
Although it was very hard work.
On the other hand, he said it was so fun that he couldn’t stop.
As if confiding my true feelings to an old friend, my sister explained to me who ‘Kwon Seol-ha’ was.
Since the song ⌜TEST⌟ had already been completed, there was no need for the singer to explain himself to the composer.
There was no need for inspiration to create a new song.
But Seolha did that.
I am a singer like this, so do you really think I can sing your song?
When we talked about old times, my sister shed tears again. When I looked at him closely, he looked strong on the outside, but on the inside, he seemed like the type of person who shed a lot of tears.
If I had any tricks, I could have given words of comfort or encouragement, but I was just an elementary school student with no tricks.
All I could do was listen to the story, nod my head, and empathize.
Singer Kwon Seol-ha’s life was like an extension of my life.
What would have happened if I had never met Uncle Miller?
After endless effort, I was lucky enough to win a pull-up award at a competition, and I may have struggled to continue playing the piano.
That was my story, and the lyrics of ⌜TEST⌟.
So, even after listening to the long story, I told Seolha that I wanted her to sing my song.
Sister Seolha resembled me in some way.
I thought that this person would sing ⌜TEST⌟ perfectly.
Sister Seolha thanked me. I promised myself several times that I would do well and that I would do well.
Seolha, who finished talking alone with me, also talked separately with ⌜Wolgwang⌟.
A story about contracts.
Here I slipped away.
I squatted a little away from the outdoor table and looked out at the sea.
The sea is vaguely visible.
If I had the chance, I thought it would be a good idea to move to a place like this.
At that time, the front door of the house opened and Seolha’s sister and mother looked around the yard.
Then our eyes met.
He walked towards me carefully, looking around, and asked about the situation.
How on earth is this going on?
However, I thought it would be better for Seolha to tell this story herself later.
So I suggested that we take a look at Seolha’s face.
Only then did my mother look at Sister Seolha carefully.
“oh my. Looks like it’s about to start again. Even after getting burned like that…”
“But the atmosphere has changed now. When I first met my sister a little while ago, she just shook her head with a helpless expression, but now she looks really nice. “I think people have changed.”
“······.”
Seolha was laughing at what they were talking about. His eyes were shining brightly, and he actively talked to Manager Park Hoon. This time, the manager also bursts into laughter.
My mother sighed when she saw that.
“Ugh. okay···. Still, it’s better that way. “I was a kid who didn’t smile much these days.”
“Did you?”
“okay. I stayed in my room all day and just listened to music. I don’t speak well. “But seeing you smile makes me feel better.”
“I was just thinking that too. Seolha seemed to have a smile as her weapon. It’s always like that when I’m on stage and dealing with the audience. Of course, I only saw it on video.”
“······?”
Mother glanced at my face. And then he tilts his head and asks a question.
“But why did you come here today? if···. “Did you follow your uncles and aunts at work?”
It seems like you didn’t hear me properly when I introduced myself in front of Seolha.
I was trying to explain that I composed ⌜TEST⌟, what my relationship with ⌜Wolgwang⌟ was, and how I came to visit Sister Seolha…
I just nodded.
“yes. “Uncle Park Hoon followed me.”
This is comfortable.
It was a moment when the manager suddenly became an uncle.
“oh my. Even though you are young, you are going through a lot of hardships. It was quite late… I think you and those gentlemen should eat and then go. “I need to prepare now.”
“Then perhaps I can help you a little?”
“huh?”
“I just don’t have anything to do. And people have to pay for food. Even though I’ve been like this, I’ve caught some fish in my past. “You will be trustworthy.”
“uh? Uh… do you want to do that?”
I followed my mother into the house.
When I went inside, my father, who was grumbling a little, glared at me. But he brought out a green grape candy from somewhere and quietly left it in front of me.
‘You take very good care of me.’
I helped prepare the meal by munching on green grape candy.
I put down the spoon, set up the water cup, and made noodles using buckwheat flour that my father said he ground himself.
I even received praise from my father for being such a bright child. He even gave me a thumbs up.
People’s lives all seemed similar.
There are times when you are upset, times when you are happy, times when you have to give an order to welcome guests, and times when you have to welcome guests.
I got the privilege of being the first to try boiled buckwheat noodles. My mother washed the noodles in cold water and put them in my mouth.
‘haha. ‘This is it.’
It’s amazing~ The flavor of this is amazing.
I thought I knew what Seolha’s mother said when making buckwheat noodles, that the ratio of buckwheat is the most important.
After setting the table, I went out into the yard to call the elders(?).
As soon as the story was over, he came towards me.
And when Seolha saw me wearing an apron, her eyes widened.
“Seo, Seojin! What were you doing in my house! oh my god!”
“I learned how to make noodles from my mother today. It’s Gangneung style. “Taste it first and finish the work later.”
I answered casually.
“Kkkkkk. Did you see it? “It’s his stuff.”
“The composer’s eloquence is also great. I hope you will do well as a manager in the future. No, I could open an entertainment company.”
“no···. Mom is···. really···.”
Manager Park Hoon laughs.
Admiring Deputy Charina.
Sister Seolha is pressing her head.
We all ate the Makguksu together.
He must have listened to Seolha’s explanation, “Hey… Were you a composer teacher? There was a moment when I burst out laughing thanks to my mother’s words, “Teacher Han?”
After eating, I walked up the hill with my sister Seolha.
The two people from ⌜Moonlight⌟ left the room for a moment, saying they had work to report to the company.
Gangneung at dusk had a very unique atmosphere.
A place where the sunset is behind a mountain, not the sea.
As someone who had been on an uninhabited island for a long time, I had thought without thinking that the sun would only fall towards the sea, but the opposite scenery felt very different.
The sea I saw from Seolha’s house was vague. However, as we climbed to the highest point of the hill along the road, the horizon of the sea was clearly visible.
My breathing was heavy and clear.
I thought that if I left a deserted island, I would absolutely hate the sea.
The sea has come to me like a longing.
There was a small pavilion at the end of the road on the hill. Seolha’s sister cracked. He hit the floor and offered me a seat.
At this moment, the orange streetlights cannot overcome the setting light of the sunset.
When I took off my shoes and went up to the pavilion, I could see the sea of Gangneung more clearly.
“It’s good? It was a place I sometimes visited when I was feeling stuffy. I really wanted to show it to you. Fortunately, I came when it was bright and I could see the entire sea.”
“I feel relieved. “It feels like a secret hideout.”
“that’s right. Actually, it’s a place that tourists don’t know much about. “You can think of it as a place that only villagers visit occasionally.”
Sister Seolha took out a thermos of Juseomjuseom from a large bag. Then she poured some coix seed tea into the lid and handed it to me.
I took a sip of warm tea and felt like all the fatigue in my body was relieved.
The story I had with Seolha was fun. Even though we met for the first time today, there was no awkwardness.
Laughing, talking, joking around.
As a result, dusk suddenly turned into night.
Sister Seolha suddenly took out a strange musical instrument from her bag. An object that seems to have just come into existence. I found out that it was a ukulele.
After my debut, I wanted to learn musical instruments and practiced acoustic guitar and ukulele. She said she wasn’t very good at playing and she wasn’t good enough to play on stage.
“He’s a composer who came all this way to me, but I think I should at least let him hear my voice. “It’s the bare minimum courtesy.”
“Wouldn’t we just have to meet separately in Seoul?”
“That happened back then. Today is today. It feels different. however···.”
Sister Seolha continued speaking while tuning the ukulele with an electronic tuner.
“It seems a little… shameful. It’s because I cried so much in front of you today! “Normally, I don’t fall.”
“I didn’t say anything?”
“······ Is that so? ha. “I don’t want to be remembered as a crybaby sister.”
“That won’t happen.”
Sister Seolha let out a sigh and lightly cleared her throat.
The ukulele tuning seemed to have been completed.
Singer Kwon Seol-ha took a deep breath and started humming lightly.
The prelude to ⌜ Sweet pea ⌟.
Although he could only play basic chords on the ukulele, Seolha Kwon’s voice was full of power.
It felt like a lie when she said she was nervous in front of me a little while ago.
With his eyes closed, he tells his story in a clear voice.
Because it got dark, the sea became difficult to see.
However, thanks to the orange street lights, Seolha was illuminated.
Sing with ease and steady breathing.
A refreshing energy can be felt in the vocals.
He uses his real voice without even using vibrato.
clarity.
A cool and attractive singer.
I don’t think I can express singer Kwon Seol-ha any better than this.
The 3-minute song ended quickly.
“Do you think it’s okay?”
The vocalist was exactly the voice I had imagined.
“It was so good. “I think I came to the right place today.”
“Tsk tsk. Well then, that’s a relief. “Honestly, do you know that I was more nervous than when I went on the audition program?”
“Then I guess you sing much better normally?”
“of course. “I’ll show you a lot in the future.”
“Then can I request one more song now?”
“Encore song? Huh. Normally, I would refuse, but if Seojin asks, I have to grant it unconditionally. “Is there a song you want to hear?”
Instead of answering, I held out my hand. Sister Seolha blinked for a moment, then realized the meaning of my actions and handed me a small instrument.
“Do you know how to play the ukulele?”
“no. But I think I’ll be able to figure it out quickly. “I know how to play the guitar.”
“Ukulele has 4 strings, so it will be very different from a 6-string guitar…”
“The shape of the instrument is the same.”
“······.”
Even on a deserted island, I played everything with a 5-string guitar. Since he didn’t memorize and play the instrument like a formula, it didn’t seem impossible.
Listen to the sound of the strings,
Check the spacing of the frets,
I tried some code.
also.
It wasn’t much different.
I handed over my smartphone to Seolha, who tilted her head. The settings had been completed so that the notepad app could be viewed immediately.
Seolha, who saw my cell phone screen, seemed to immediately understand my intention. She laughs and clears her throat again.
I started playing accompaniment on the ukulele.
Cute instrument.
It has a cute sound to match.
When the prelude to ⌜TEST⌟ ended, Sister Seolha’s voice flowed softly.
A voice that touches your heart.
The clear voice of singer Kwon Seol-ha seemed to travel down the hills of Gangneung to a distant place.
The song I had only imagined was being completed right here.
My song, which had been wandering around unable to find its owner, resonated and spread as if I was happy.
It was my first time experiencing it.
Even if I composed, wrote, and arranged the song, it was always me who sang the song.
Uncle Miller didn’t sing my song. He said that even if he would correct the mistakes, I had to sing my own song.
If not.
He said that he needed to find a singer who was suitable for him.
Sister Seolha’s voice trembles slightly.
I couldn’t tell if I sympathized with the lyrics or if I was moved by this situation.
still.
Even that little tremor seemed beautiful to me.
Sister Seolha’s voice was not loud.
I sang carefully for fear of disturbing the villagers.
However, the clear voice that came out clearly made me feel comfortable.
I looked at the sea.
As it got dark, the boundary between land and sea was indistinguishable.
Still, it didn’t matter.
I was clearly looking out to sea.
The song of ⌜TEST⌟, which lasts only a few minutes, is gradually coming to an end.
It disappears as if it were very disappointing.
This moment will never come back.
That’s why it was so precious to me.
I looked at the sea again.
I stared into the dark place.
And like the lyrics of ⌜TEST⌟,
I thought of just one person in my mind.
* * *
Two people who were climbing a hill began to have a quiet conversation.
“no···. “This… the sensibility itself is on a completely different level, isn’t it?”
“Seojin’s ears were accurate. Singer Kwon Seol-ha was the correct answer. “I don’t think there’s more to it than this.”
“Shouldn’t we go and record it now? It’s too sad to just let it go. “It gave me goosebumps.”
“it’s okay. Because this moment is more important to them now. “We’ll just wait and see.”
“I guess so… “I guess that’s right.”
“Now it’s finally become a real song.”
Manager Park Hoon suddenly stopped with Assistant Manager Charina.
As there were no street lights, I was able to watch them hidden in the dark. It was actually nice to not be disturbed.
Adults and children.
Singer and songwriter.
The power of music created on the spot was incredible.
I felt like I couldn’t breathe and I felt like crying for no reason.
This is the kind of music Park Hoon wanted.
It’s more about the entertainment industry’s strategy, box office success, and fame.
I thought that any music that could essentially capture people’s hearts was enough.
and.
The music finally appeared.
From composer Han Seo-jin, and no one else.
From a 12-year-old genius.
Park Hoon thinks that he is a very lucky person.
I thoroughly enjoyed their music.
.
.
.
“Please take care of me. “Our composer.”
“That’s natural. “I’ll see you in Seoul then, singer Kwon Seol-ha.”
“yes. Please drive carefully.”
A truly amazing day.
However, the main character, Seojin, started to feel nervous as soon as she sat in the back seat of the car.
I close my eyes and nod my head.
The appearance of a flawless child.
Kwon Seolha fastened Seojin’s seatbelt for him. He also placed a cushion behind her head. She makes a purring noise like a cat, as if she is comfortable.
Because of that appearance, I couldn’t help but smile the whole time.
‘Our composer, I’m so thankful… And what do you do when you’re this cute?’
While thinking this.
