My Daughter is a Music Genius

“Do you know me?”

Jo Sung-hyun asked while tilting his head.

Chae-yoon, who was holding his hand, tilts her head just like Jo Seong-hyun does.

I’ve never met a trainee named Yerin Lee, and I don’t know how I know myself.

Jo Seong-hyeon looked at Lee Ye-rin carefully, wondering if he was forgetting it, and traced his memory.

But still, nothing came to mind.

‘I don’t think it’s going to debut in the future.’

If that was the case, Yerin Lee’s face would remain in my memory.

There was no such thing.

“Yes, I know very well. Woojin oppa recently talked a lot about producers… .”

Only after hearing those words, Jo Seong-hyeon could realize how Ye-rin Lee knew her.

As Woojin Choi is a trainee for Pan Entertainment, he will know him well with other trainees as well.

It is natural to talk about yourself to the trainees who know him.

“Oh, I heard from Woojin-san.”

“Yes Yes. This time, Woojin oppa was originally going to ask me to record the guide, but I heard that the producer even recorded the guide himself, so I almost fell in love.”

Come to think of it, I think I’ve heard the name Yerin.

I remember the last time Choi Woo-jin mentioned that there was a good trainee among the trainees he knew when he got a guide.

“ah… Did you say Yerin?”

“yes. This is Yerin Lee.”

“I remember the last time I said Woojin-ssi was good at capturing emotions. I was in a bit of a hurry back then, so I just did it myself. sorry.”

Jo Sung-hyun smiled and apologized to Lee Ye-rin.

In a way, it was a situation that could be an opportunity for Yerin Lee.

Composer Choi Woo-jin thought it would be okay, so he wanted to ask Ye-rin Lee.

If Jo Sung-hyun hadn’t done it himself, it would almost certainly have gone to Lee Ye-rin as the guide vocalist.

While earning pocket money is also pocket money, it was a situation that could have been a great opportunity for trainees.

It could be that Cho Seong-hyun unintentionally took that opportunity away.

Yerin Lee could be feeling sad.

However, Yerin Lee raised her hands and waved them as if it wasn’t like that at all.

“I’m sorry. Absolutely not. really… How dare I make an album for Seo Ye-na sunbaenim, and how can I be a guide vocalist there?”

It was a complete nuisance, and Lee Ye-rin said that she was rather grateful to Jo Sung-hyun.

“If it’s okay with me, can I brag to Woojin oppa that I met the producer?”

“Ah yes. Please. what do i say… .”

Jo Sung-hyun answered with an awkward smile.

I don’t know what I’m proud of that I met.

“Woojin oppa talks about producers whenever he has time these days. I was thinking about making a fan cafe too. I’ve known for a few years, but it’s the first time I’ve had such a reaction, so I was very curious. Who are you?”

At Lee Ye-rin’s words, Jo Sung-hyun still smiled awkwardly and ended the conversation.

It was because Chaeyoon seemed to want to go into the practice room quickly.

‘By the way, what is a fan cafe?’

I thought I should talk to Choi Woo-jin one more time later.

* * *

“Wow!”

As soon as they entered the practice room, Chae-yoon screamed happily.

Jo Sung-hyun smiled, closed the practice room door, and looked at Chae-yoon.

Chae-yoon liked it so much that she didn’t know what to do, and went around the grand piano.

The child laughed and walked around the piano, then ran towards Seong-hyeon Jo and hugged his leg tightly.

“Daddy is the best!”

“Do you think you can work even harder if you practice here?”

“yes!”

“After practicing hard, shall we go eat something delicious with Dad?”

At Seong-hyeon’s words, Chae-yoon shook her head.

“Chae-yoon wants to keep practicing! Daddy, come eat!”

Jo Sung-hyun laughed at the child’s words.

“Let’s practice for about 4 hours and then go eat. What will you do if Chae-yoon is hungry later?”

“Umm… 4 hours?”

Not sure how long 4 hours is, Chaeyoon tilted her head.

Jo Seong-hyeon held the child and sat him on the piano chair.

“Can you practice dozens of songs in 4 hours?”

“Hey… I like Chae-yoon.”

The child smiled and answered.

Just being able to practice a lot is good in itself.

Chaeyoon sat on the piano chair and moved her body a few times to get into a position, then whining and trying to raise the cover.

Jo Sung-hyun smiled and opened the piano cover.

Only then did the child put his hand on the keyboard with a satisfied face.

A feeling of excitement blooms on Chae-yoon’s face.

Until now, Chaeyoon had only played the grand piano for about 30 minutes.

I played it last time while filming a music video, when I went to buy a piano, and I played it at a competition.

To be honest, when filming the music video, it wasn’t a very well-maintained piano, so it wasn’t that great.

The only way to hit it right was the experience of playing the piano in a competition.

The child had to love it.

The electric piano had many advantages, but it was not enough to satisfy the pianist.

Jo Seong-hyeon placed the prepared sheet music in front of the piano, and Chae-yoon laughed hehehe, then looked at the sheet music and started moving his fingers.

The child’s practice has begun.

As soon as the child started practicing, Jo Sung-hyun quietly sat down on a chair in one corner of the practice room.

He took out the book and read it.

To study, I brought a book in advance, and Chae-yoon listened to her performance.

In addition, Jo Sung-hyun concentrated on his studies.

4 hours have passed.

Except for going to the bathroom in the middle, Chaeyoon really continued to focus on practice.

Chaeyoon enjoyed playing so much that she wondered if it was possible to concentrate like that at such a young age.

If I made a mistake, I gave off a cute nervousness once, and then I practiced more concentratingly.

Jo Sung-hyun glanced at the child every time Chae-yoon had finished playing and checked Chae-yoon’s condition.

First of all, I set the practice time to 4 hours, but if the child gets tired early, it is not a problem at all to go out a little early.

“Chae Yoon-ah, shall we go now?”

It’s almost 6 o’clock.

Seong-hyeon Cho put the book into the bag and said.

Then, while Chae-yoon is practicing, she stops and looks back at Seong-hyeon.

“Chaeyoon is hungry… .”

I was practicing hard, but it seems that I was hungry as much as I worked hard.

Jo Sung-hyun smiled and arranged the sheet music.

“Shall we go eat something delicious?”

“yes!”

The child nods and comes down from the piano.

Holding Chae-yoon’s hand, I’m about to leave the practice room and go home.

“uh? Seniors?”

I met Jang Hyun-ah on the first floor.

Jo Seong-hyeon saw Jang Hyun-ah approaching from the right and bowed his head slightly to greet him.

“hello. Hyuna.”

“Yep. Seniors. hello. How is Chae-yoon?”

“hello!”

Now that I’ve seen Jang Hyun-ah a few times, Chae-yoon greeted her familiarly.

“You say that Chaeyoon is doing a contest these days? Are you practicing hard?”

“yes! Chaeyoon can work really hard.”

Chae-yoon answers confidently.

Jo Sung-hyung smiled and opened his mouth.

“I just asked Joongwon hyung to practice at the grand piano practice room and come out.”

Saying that, Jo Seong-hyeon had a momentary thought.

Basically, the practice room was for trainees, and Jo Sung-hyun was working as a producer, so Jo Sung-hyun is practicing, even if it is understandable to some extent.

Chae-yoon’s practice may seem absurd from the company’s point of view.

It’s not like anyone else, and it’s kind of funny to say things like this to Jang Hyun-ah.

“Oh yeah? Well, it would be difficult to practice at home. There aren’t many people who practice in a practice room with a grand piano, so it would be perfect for Chaeyoon.”

Fortunately, Jang Hyun-ah said so with a bright face.

Jo Sung-hyun shook his head lightly.

“Senior must be busy these days because he has to sprint at the last minute. Seo Ye-na’s album, it’s coming soon.”

“I don’t have much to do, so I’m not busy.”

“ah… Seeing you leave this time and work as a producer made me want to leave too.”

“Uh-huh, that shouldn’t be the case.”

“Heh heh. just joke. To be honest, it’s a bit difficult, but I think I’ll keep working because it’s fun to work on. At least, until you return to work?”

“It should be at least 10 years.”

“Does that mean that you won’t come back for 10 years?”

Instead of answering, Jo Sung-hyun shrugged his shoulders.

Jang Hyun-ah smiled and shook her head as if not to say.

“Yumi and the team leader still talk about seniors often. You must come back as soon as possible.”

“Are you talking about me?”

“Yeah, we’re talking about seniors… Chaeyoon talks a lot. Especially Yumi.”

When his name appeared, Chae-yoon raised his head.

The child looked at Hyeon-ah Jang with a curious face, and Hyun-ah Jang realized this and smiled at Chae-yoon before continuing.

“Why, you told me that Chaeyoon is having a contest this time. You say you want to see it… .”

Come to think of it, I asked you to let us know the day when Chaeyoon was performing at the contest.

If the time is right, I’ll go, or I’ll buy you some pork cutlet later.

“… I should contact Yumi.”

“Then will you be happy?”

Hyuna Jang says, try it when you have time.

Jo Sung-hyun thought for a moment, then looked at Jang Hyun-ah and opened his mouth.

“Yumi, what’s your schedule for next weekend?”

Since Jang Hyun-ah is Yumi’s manager, she must be aware of her schedule.

“Next weekend, go to Daejeon and perform.”

“ah… okay?”

Next weekend, there is Chaeyoon’s second stage in the finals, and it seemed like it would be difficult for Yumi to come.

I thought I’d have to contact them and let them know.

and that evening.

Jo Seong-hyeon texted Yumi.

I said that it would be difficult for Yumi to come because the second stage of the finals was on the weekend.

A quick reply came from Yumi.

-Yumi: Then I’ll go to the awards ceremony. Our Chae-yoon is receiving the award, but I can’t not go.

It was a text message with confidence that Chaeyoon would win the prize.

Jo Sung-hyun let out a wide smile.
