My Daughter is a Music Genius

Jo Seong-hyeon sat in the passenger seat and picked up his smartphone.

Park Joong-won burst into laughter when he saw Jo Sung-hyun taking out his smartphone and stopping his body.

“Okay now?”

“… I was out of my mind, so I couldn’t check.”

While saying that, Jo Seong-hyeon looked at the number written on the corner of the Me Tube channel banner and kept her mouth shut.

It’s not exactly 100,000, but the number of subscribers just over 100,000 catches my eye.

Jo Seong-hyeon raised his hand and ruffled his hair.

Something felt odd.

I thought that it was going to be over 100,000 soon, and even if it was over, I expected that I would think that I passed it.

It wasn’t like that.

“It’s really over 100,000.”

“Maybe Hyuna will contact you later. I said I was going to see if I could apply for the Silver Button.”

“… I feel like I’m going to get weird again when I get a silver button… It must be a mistake, isn’t it?”

“If it’s a silver button, it’s acceptable even if you cry.”

Park Joong-won said so and tapped Jo Sung-hyun’s shoulder.

Seong-hyeon Cho laughed.

Seeing his smile, Park Joong-won also laughed lightly.

They were able to get to the restaurant quickly.

It was a Korean beef intestine stew, but I thought I was eating too much from lunch, but… Park Joong-won wants to eat, but what do you do?

“nice… It’s really a pity I can’t drink alcohol.”

I had to go back to work and drive, so neither Park Joong-won nor Jo Sung-hyun could drink.

It was a pity that I could not drink alcohol while eating the intestines, but it was unavoidable.

Cho Seong-hyun calmed his disappointment by pouring cider into Park Joong-won’s glass instead.

After satisfying some hunger, the meal slowed down and the main point came out.

“It’s Heimdall.”

“yes.”

Park Joong-won brings out the name of the boy group he is in charge of.

Jo Sung-hyun took a sip of the cider and looked at Park Joong-won.

Park Joong-won sighed and took a short breath before continuing.

Perhaps, a group called Heimdall could be a difficult group for Park Joong-won to manage.

It’s not that Park Joong-won lacks experience as a manager, but… Being in charge of a group like this was actually a lot of work.

In taking charge of a group, a team must stick together.

Park Joong-won is in charge of the entire team, and at the same time, Jang Hyun-ah and other managers have to manage and coordinate with him, so he must be crazy.

It also means doing a good job.

“The start itself was too good. Of course, the soundtrack performance was a little behind compared to ‘Muse’… I know that Heimdall is a bit more profitable than that one.”

Generally speaking, when it comes to the same performance, boy groups tend to have slightly higher profits than girl groups.

Of course, this will be group by group, but that’s generally the case.

Although Heimdall was pushed back by the music performance itself to the Muse, he was not at all behind in terms of revenue, but rather advanced a little bit.

“So?”

“Now that we have a good start, it’s time to move forward with a little more certainty… In my opinion, creating an image of an artist would be good in the long run.”

“In the long run, that image is the most important thing.”

Jo Sung-hyun nodded and agreed with Park Joong-won’s words.

One of the most important things in this edition is the image.

After all, it was a plate that made a living by making images, so one small image was very important.

It’s because I win a CF with one image and make a schedule.

So, entertainers are trying to create their own ‘characters’, and idol companies are also trying to give their idols a role somehow.

In the case of Pan Entertainment, the direction is toward supporting artists.

Of course, making an artist is good, but it’s not like making an artist as if it was made out of a frame.

The direction of Pan Entertainment is to support the one and only artist in the world to grow on their own, and to allow each artist to make their own music.

Even for that, it was necessary to give Heimdall the image of a complete artist and a singer-songwriter.

“But in the end, Woojin, who has to participate a lot in the production side of the group, insists that he wants you to produce an album… I was also conflicted. So what, to be honest. I couldn’t make a decision either.”

“… … .”

“I think the decision is yours, not mine. What do you think?”

Park Joong-won asked.

Cho Sung-hyun scratched his cheek.

It was also not something that could be easily decided, so Jo Seong-hyeon opened his mouth only after earning time by eating a spoonful of steamed intestines.

“First… Let me be honest too. I want to do it.”

“okay?”

“Yeah, but… If I think about whether it’s really a good choice for me to be in charge of everything for Heimdall… It doesn’t seem like that.”

“… It is not. But if you let Heimdall produce everything, there is a high probability that the album will go bankrupt.”

“Aren’t you supposed to have one main producer anyway?”

“You have to let it go. I have no intention of watching the album ruin.”

“I will be the main producer. There… By composing a song. Just like the way I worked with the Muse last time.”

“Besides the main producer, one song?”

“Perhaps the weight itself feels like a sub-producer. How many people can compose in Heimdall, and how many producers do you have?”

From https://readwn.com

Most of the members of Heimdall were able to compose and produce.

Among them, in the case of Woojin Choi, his ability was very good.

To the extent that I could take on an album right away and compose and produce all the songs.

Because there was such a Choi Woo-jin, Park Joong-won also tried to create an artist image for Heimdall without hesitation.

If Woojin Choi was in charge of producing and composing on his own, making the album a success, it would certainly be a huge thing… .

In fact, it wasn’t very likely.

First of all, it was his own album, and in the case of Choi Woo-jin, his ability is certain, but he had little experience working on his own album.

If you have just debuted and have to prepare your own album, you probably will not be able to properly prepare the album because of your mental exhaustion.

‘Mental is also mental… Before that, I might collapse from overwork.’

Seong-hyeon Jo opened his mouth with such thoughts in his mind and continued his conversation.

“It’s the same with Heimdall, but it’s hard for me to find the time. This time, Chaeyoon and I decided to perform with the Seoul Orchestra.”

“Oh, congratulations too. You must be really crazy.”

“I’m saying this because I think it’s best to set aside time to work on something similar to when I was a muse.”

“OK. Then proceed like that. Fay is… .”

“Take care of yourself.”

Jo Sung-hyun shrugged his shoulders and said.

Of course, the reason you work is to make money, but money is not everything.

Park Joong-won will take care of Fay, and Jo Seong-hyun didn’t want to worry too much about that part.

I already have enough, and the reason why Cho Sung-hyun accepted Heimdall’s proposal to work on an album… Not because of Fay, but because of Choi Woo-jin’s request.

“okay. Then I will arrange the conditions and send it to you. It’s probably similar to when you were a muse. It could be a little lower.”

“I see.”

Park Joong-won speaks frankly.

When I was a muse, Paradise Entertainment paid for me, so there was no burden from Pan Entertainment.

In addition, the pay I received as a muse was actually a slightly higher amount than the pay that Jo Sung-hyun would have received.

At that time, it was also the link that CEO Jang Pan-seok gave as a gift to Jo Sung-hyun.

As a Paradise Entertainer, even in order to establish a good relationship with Pan Entertainment, we were in a position where we should not neglect Cho Sung-hyun’s contract terms.

Since then, Muse’s album has been a success, so the conditions may have been a little higher… .

Pan Entertainment was not a company overflowing with money as much as Paradise Enter.

Even if I try to match it as much as possible, it will be at a similar level to the conditions at that time, but it will not be high.

Jo Sung-hyun was also aware of that, and he didn’t really care about the lowering of the conditions.

It’s much better to have a Pan Entertainment where you can work comfortably even on low conditions than to call another company for a high price and work together.

‘Well, now I’m making a Heimdall album.’

I thought it would be quite fun to work with Choi Woo-jin after a long time.

Jo Sung-hyun thought to himself and smiled.

* * *

Chae-yoon’s school is over.

Jo Sung-hyun went to Pan Entertainment with his child.

It was one of the reasons I went to work.

Since the number of subscribers has exceeded 100,000, to commemorate it, we are going to shoot a thank you content.

After hearing the story that Chaeyoon had over 100,000 subscribers, a smile never left her lips.

“So good?”

“yes. happy. That means 100,000 people like you and me.”

“right.”

“For 100,000 won, you can eat ten cutlets, and that’s why so many people like Dad and me. happy.”

Jo Sung-hyun blinked at Chae-yoon’s words.

The calculation seems a bit strange, but the point is that I am happy that many people like me and Jo Sung-hyun.

Jo Sung-hyun smiled and patted the child’s head.

They happily headed to the conference room where Jang Hyun-ah was waiting.

As soon as they enter the conference room, Hyuna Jang gets up from her seat and applauds.

“Hello, 100,000 youtubers.”

Jang Hyun-ah said that in a playful voice.

Seong-Hyeon Cho smiled.

Chae-yoon proudly spread her shoulders and greeted Jang Hyun-ah.

“hello! This is 100,000 youtuber Jo Chae-yoon!”

Chae-yoon reaches out to Jang Hyun-ah with a bright voice.

Jang Hyun-ah couldn’t hold back her laughter when she saw such a child.

Seonghyeon was the same, so the two laughed for a long time.

Jang Hyun-ah took the child’s hand and shook it to shake hands, and took out a chair for Chae-yoon.

Perhaps he liked the little pranks, and Chaeyoon also bursts into a pleasant laugh.

“First… Mrs. Reum said she would come in a little while, so I think I should take a picture of her saying thank you when she comes.”

“All right.”

“and… I must have surpassed 100,000 subscribers. I thought it was time to start a new project, so I had a few thoughts.”

Hyeon-ah Jang slyly, smiles and speaks out.

And at her next words, Jo Sung-hyun had to make a puzzled face.

“The daily life of a musical genius couple. how about it?”

At the words of Hyeon-ah Jang, Jo Sung-hyun and Chae-yoon blinked their eyes at the same time.
