My Daughter is a Music Genius

129

In the morning, Chae-yoon, who is in a good mood, goes to school.

Jo Sung-hyun returned home again.

Today, rather than going to a cafe to study, I thought I would practice with the violin myself.

It didn’t seem that difficult to practice.

It may take some time, but since I’ve read all the sheet music anyway, I don’t think there’s anything more to worry about.

Jo Seong-hyeon came out to the living room with a violin case and sat down on the sofa.

Place the violin case on your lap.

After looking around for a while, Seong-hyeon Seong put down the violin again and got up.

“Just clean it up… .”

Last night, it was Chaeyoon who was excited to play the piano for the first time in two days.

In the end, it turned out that both the child and Jo Sung-hyun woke up a little late.

In order to avoid being late, there were traces of the battle as quickly as possible all over the house.

In the meantime, I toasted saying that I had to eat something and left without cleaning it properly.

Jo Sung-hyun sighed and cleaned the kitchen first.

Gently wipe the frying pan and clean the table and sink.

After that, she approaches Chaeyoon’s pajamas spread out in the middle of the living room, folds it gently, and puts it in the bedroom.

Last thing left.

Wii ing.

It was a vacuum cleaner.

Jo Sung-hyun turned the vacuum cleaner as quickly as possible.

It’s not very detailed, but it’s pretty neat nonetheless.

I run the vacuum cleaner once or twice a week, and I use a shovel to clean it, so I couldn’t help but keep it tidy.

This was basically because Cho Sung-hyun’s tendency to keep things organized.

When I do something, I like to plan and do it, and I like to work in an organized atmosphere.

“Whew… .”

He exhaled, plugged the vacuum into the charger, and then headed back to the sofa.

I was just trying to clean it up, but more than an hour had already passed.

Even though I said I was going to do it as quickly as possible.

Seong-hyeon Cho, who was squeaky and tongue-tied, opened the violin case.

widely.

With a small sound, the case opens and the violin appears.

Cho Seong-hyeon, who put a chinrest on the violin and put a cover on it, simply tuned it and then raised the bow.

Lay out the sheet music in front of you.

Jo Seong-hyeon carefully moved the bow.

Jiing.

The violin sounds briefly and then cuts off.

Jo Sung-hyun frowned and stared at the sheet music.

something, it’s subtle

Even though it was the sheet music of ‘Shall we play with leaves together?’ that I always heard, my hands did not move easily.

The moment he makes the first note, he pauses because he anticipates in his head what the next performances will be like.

‘A little, but.’

If you go like this, you won’t be able to play the song to the end with perfection.

So, how should I do it?

Seong-hyeon Cho was worried.

I thought I’d read the whole score, but I’m not sure if that’s the case, or if it’s for a slightly different reason than reading the score.

Jo Seong-hyeon, who was quietly looking at the score, raised his bow again after a few minutes.

and.

Jiing.

Again, the violin sound was cut short.

I tried it with the thought of whether I could do it this way, but the moment I made the first note, I had to stop playing because I thought that if I did this again, the expression of emotions would become a little ambiguous.

In my head, the playing really quickly passes and then disappears.

Of course, it’s not a bad performance to listen to, but that doesn’t mean it’s going to be pretty good.

The performance that can be called ‘the best’ in Jo Sung-hyun’s head is the one that came out as an OST for ‘The Kingdom of the Wind’.

At least with this sheet music it was.

can’t match it

As I said to Chaeyun yesterday, Jo Sung-hyun has his music, and Han Ji-hyeok, who oversaw all the music of ‘Kingdom of the Wind’, has Han Ji-hyeok’s music.

The music of the two cannot perfectly match.

But still, shouldn’t it be similar?

You have to follow half of it.

But now, the performance playing in Jo Sung-hyun’s head could not keep up with half, let alone half.

‘It’s difficult.’

In the end, Seong-hyeon Cho was able to play the same thing five or six times before he could play normally.

jig jig.

His bow moves smoothly and expresses the song.

Jo Sung-hyun’s feelings and Chae-yoon’s feelings.

And because the emotions expressed in the movie were different, it was unavoidable that the expressions were different.

And Cho Seong-hyeon thought that the difference in expression could be the most important part of a musician in a way.

Jo Sung-hyun usually tries to express it as softly as possible.

To accept it naturally without any hesitation.

In the case of Chae-yoon, rather than such tenderness, she reveals a very deep and deep emotion and expresses it as if she is sucking in the other person.

The method itself was different.

Jiying.

Cho Sung-hyun’s violin sound continued for several minutes.

His performance, once started, did not stop until the end of the song.

It’s completely different from the one that kept playing only the first note before starting.

“… I don’t think it was bad.”

In his own performance, Seong-hyeon Cho evaluated it as such.

Not bad.

It wasn’t great, but it wasn’t a failure either.

He seems to have accomplished about 80% of what he set out to do.

Now, making this even more perfect is something that can only be practiced.

Jo Seong-hyeon raised the violin, which had been lowered for a while, to continue practicing.

And at that moment, Jo Sung-hyun burst into laughter.

‘I can see why Chaeyoon did that yesterday.’

I now understand why Chaeyoon kept on hitting one key briefly and then paused and then repeatedly tapped the key briefly and stayed still.

Perhaps it was for the same reason as Jo Sung-hyun.

but.

“There’s no way Chaeyoon would just act like that without a reason.”

They are all actions that happen for a clear reason.

Especially when it comes to music.

Jo Sung-hyun smiled slightly as he recalled the happy child playing the piano that he had seen yesterday.

His practice continued for some time.

* * *

That evening.

Jo Seong-hyeon, just like yesterday, hastily prepared dinner.

In fact, when I was alone, it was a little difficult to prepare a meal, and it became even more difficult when Jo Sung-hyun was studying music or was holding an instrument.

If you focus on one thing, you will forget your hunger and you will not be able to hear the sounds around you.

After skipping lunch, I was hungry for dinner.

After I finished eating, I was washing the dishes when Chae-yoon came up from behind and hugged Seong-hyeon’s leg.

“Hi-Hi.”

the child laughs

Jo Sung-hyun looked down at Chae-yoon.

“What makes you feel so good, Chae-yoon?”

“Dad is good at washing dishes.”

“yes?”

Can you say I’m good at washing dishes?

‘I can’t really do it, but… .’

That doesn’t mean that I’m not good at washing dishes, is it?

Jo Sung-hyun opened his mouth as he looked at Chae-yoon with a puzzled face.

“Is your dad good at washing the dishes?”

“yes! I’m sure he’ll do better than Youngjun.”

The child speaks with his eyes shining.

Jo Seong-hyeon blinked at the name of Yeong-jun who appeared out of the blue.

What does washing dishes have to do with Yeongjun?

“Why Youngjun?”

“No, today Young-jun said that he was good at washing dishes. Yeongjun said he was better at washing dishes than Youngjun’s dad.”

Chaeyoon speaks at a slightly faster pace.

He seems to be excited about something, and he also seems to be proud of the thought that Jo Seong-hyeon is better at washing dishes than Yeong-jun, who is so good at it.

Jo Sung-hyeon heard Chae-yoon’s words and laughed.

“Youngjun seems to be washing the dishes at home.”

“yes. Once a week… ?”

Now that I’m 7 years old, washing the dishes can be special as a parent.

Of course, I don’t know if it’s completely voluntary.

Jo Sung-hyun thought that he wanted to make fun of Chae-yoon.

Yeongjun is washing the dishes, but what doesn’t Chaeyoon do? I thought Chaeyoon would be embarrassed if I said something like that.

So I tried to open my mouth, but before that, Chae-yoon opened it first.

“Youngjun said he would wash the dishes when he grows up!”

As if proudly, Chae-yoon said.

Jo Sung-hyun paused at those words.

shoot ah

momentary silence.

There was a small sound of water.

Jo Seong-hyeon quickly shook his head to understand what Yeong-jun’s words meant.

You said that you would wash the dishes when you grow up? What the hell does that mean?

Thoughts were complicated.

And, the conclusion that comes after many repeated thoughts.

‘Look at him?’

It seemed that I should watch Youngjun a little more carefully in the future.

Jo Sung-hyun resumed washing the dishes, which had been paused for a while, and Chae-yoon thought he would respond right away, but when there was no response for a while, he pulled Jo Sung-hyun’s pants.

Jo Sung-hyeon, who made a small sound, turned again and looked at Chae-yoon.

“Chae Yoon-ah.”

“yes?”

“When our Chaeyoon grows up later, will you help Dad wash the dishes?”

“Hey… I can do it perfectly!”

The boy nodded and answered with a smile on his face.

He seems to be very welcome to help Jo Sung-hyun.

“Hey, what do we do because our Chaeyoon is so pretty?”

“Hehehe.”

Chae-yoon buryes her face in Seong-hyeon’s arms.

The child rubbed his face, and Jo Seong-hyeon quickly finished washing the dishes and hugged Chae-yoon.

After playing pranks together for a while, Jo Sung-hyun got up and headed towards Chae-yoon’s bag.

There must have been something written by Min Eun-jung.

[Today’s Chaeyoon looked a lot brighter than yesterday.

As usual, he went to the piano and played hard.

When my friends realized that the song that Chaeyoon had been practicing for was from the Kingdom of the Winds, which was released this time, they sang together.

Thanks to Chaeyoon, we had a lot of fun singing together.]

After reading what Eun-Jeong Min had written, Seong-Hyeon Cho smiled softly.

It was fortunate.

I feel relieved because I feel like I have become closer with my friends, and knowing that I played the piano well even in kindergarten gives me peace of mind.

‘It’s amazing.’

The fact that he overcame musical difficulties safely and that he grew up using it as a stepping stone.

It was so unique.

Jo Seong-hyeon put the recording paper back into the bag and moved toward the living room where the violin was.

follow.

Chae-yoon’s performance continued.

Jo Sung-hyun quietly waited for the child to finish playing, and then opened his mouth.

“Chae Yoon-ah.”

“yes?”

In response, Chae-yoon turned her head to look at Jo Sung-hyun, and saw the violin placed in front of him and widened her eyes.

“Would you like to play with Dad after a long time?”

At that question, Chaeyoon’s face widens.

“yes!”

The child answered without hesitation.
