Episode 3

Don’t you want to do music?

Jo Sung-hyun’s eyes fluttered at Park Joong-won’s words.

Originally, it was not today, but after almost a month or two, and I should have brought it up around the end of the year, but I don’t know what has changed.

‘Well, it doesn’t matter.’

Jo Sung-hyun thought to himself.

He had already made up his mind to focus on his daughter, Jo Chae-yoon, this life.

But when Park Joong-won asked if he had any intention of doing music, there was no way he would change his mind.

I’ve already tried it once, and I’ve experienced that all that’s left is regret and emptiness in the end.

I had no intention of making the same mistake twice.

“There is a shortage of managerial staff, and we especially need people who work well like you… To be honest, I always thought that you would do well if you made music.”

Park Joong-won says

Same word as last life.

He said that it was a waste because he was doing so well, but he recommended that he try music.

“manager.”

“Hey, honestly, you know I’m not the kind of person who talks like this for nothing. you’re a kid who needs to make music Is that what my senses are saying?”

Park Joong-won looked at Jo Sung-hyun and said.

His eyes were telling the truth.

However, Jo Sung-hyun finally opened his mouth.

“sorry. I have no intention of doing music.”

“… okay. that too, okay After all, there are few people who are as good as you. It’s good for me.”

“… I’m sorry too.”

“ok?”

Park Joong-won narrowed his eyes at Seong-hyeon’s words and shouted out what he meant.

Jo Seong-hyeon pondered on how to say it, and eventually spit out the words that were just rolling around in his mouth.

“I will resign. manager.”

As soon as he said those words, Park Joong-won opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth.

“Hey, hey. This is not real.”

Park Joong-won seemed genuinely embarrassed.

As if he had never expected that he would say that he would resign, he continued with his eyes wide open.

“I didn’t mean to say anything big about you being late… You asked me if I wanted to do music, right? You can’t work, so make music, did you understand that?”

“no. I am well aware that the manager cannot say that he can’t do that job. I know very well that you really thought of me and told me to try music.”

“But why is that, man!”

A loud voice finally came out of Park Joong-won’s mouth.

He shouted at himself and, on the contrary, flinched in surprise.

He was such a person. Park Joong-won.

Park Joong-won, who let out a small sigh, continued speaking as if frustrated.

“Please explain why so I can understand.”

Park Joong-won gestures and says.

Jo Sung-hyun felt a smile coming out of him as he beckoned to explain quickly.

It will be a smile that comes out of both being thankful and being sad.

“Have I not worked really hard until now?”

“Oh, you worked really hard. I know better than anyone that you worked hard, and I know how much fun you have.”

“I feel like I can stop now.”

“Stop, what are you going to do? You have a daughter too.”

“It’s because of my daughter.”

Jo Sung-hyun spoke with a firm voice at Park Joong-won’s words.

When he felt a strong will in his voice, Park Joong-won stopped.

It was Park Joong-won who knew well that Jo Sung-hyun was the type of person who would not joke around or say that he would easily leave the company.

But still, I was thinking that if I convince him, I would continue to work…

“Even now, I’m going to calm down and play the role of a father. It’s not enough, but… Do your best.”

Park Joong-won frowned at Jo Sung-hyun’s words.

“If you quit your job, how are you going to make a living?”

“Won’t there be any severance pay? However, what is the benefit to the company?”

“It doesn’t matter how much your severance pay is. But how long will it last?”

“I have my wife’s insurance.”

“… … .”

Park Joong-won kept his mouth shut at Jo Sung-hyun’s words.

How many years have you worked with Jo Seong-hyeon, and you don’t know what his wife’s death benefit means to him.

If you decide to use it, it means you’ve made a really strong decision.

“A month, no. Just work for three weeks.”

“For three weeks, I will do everything I am doing properly.”

Jo Sung-hyun, who knows Park Joong-won’s circumstances and how things work, could not refuse to work for three weeks.

“okay. You’ve worked hard all this time, and I don’t have much to say because I’m leaving to be nice to my daughter… cheer up. I heard that it is 10 times more difficult than managing celebrities.”

“Because instead, you will be 100 times happier.”

Seong-Hyeon Cho said.

Park Joong-won burst out laughing at his words.

“Yeah, so it is.”

With that said, he tapped Jo Sung-hyun on the shoulder and left the conference room.

Jo Seong-hyeon followed him out of the office and sat down at his seat.

The feeling was new.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been sitting here, and it’s because I’m sitting here after I’ve just said I’m leaving my job.

“Seonghyun.”

Jo Sung-hyun turned his head at the voice coming from the side.

A co-worker was looking at him with a slightly worried look.

“What did you say a lot? It seems like it’s been a long time since the team leader raised his voice to Seonghyeon. Aren’t you too angry for being late once? .”

“It’s not like that.”

Jo Sung-hyun shook his head and said.

In response to his decisive answer, a co-worker made a smirk on his face and licked his lips.

Before he could say anything, he heard Park Joong-won’s voice from behind.

“Sung Hyun-ah.”

“Oh, your boss.”

“What is the schedule for next Tuesday?”

“What about my schedule?”

“Do you have any other plans outside?”

“There is not.”

Jo Sung-hyun immediately opened the calendar on the desktop, checked the schedule, and answered.

“Then you can take care of Yumi next Tuesday.”

“Am I?”

“Everyone but you has an ambiguous schedule. You usually took care of me when I wasn’t there, so Yumi won’t be used to it either.”

Park Joong-won said.

At his words, Seong-hyeon looked around.

Not everyone is like that at all, and they look like they can do it.

Jo Sung-hyun made a strange face for a moment, then eventually nodded.

“All right. I’ll take care of you, Yumi.”

“Uh, good job.”

Park Joong-won said coolly and turned around.

Soon, a colleague spoke to me.

“Yumi-san, you have a schedule.”

“yes.”

“Would it be possible for our Raon to follow the music video shoot?”

Yumi was a rising rookie singer.

The first album is showing a pretty good response, so the singer is preparing for the second mini album right away.

The music video shooting is scheduled for next Tuesday.

Raon was a male child actor who had just turned 12 years old.

Recently, among the child actors, the name has been known little by little, so it was a pretty good situation.

Jo Sung-hyun paused for a moment at the request before he could properly adjust to his job, but then he nodded.

Raon later progressed well into acting and showed a good figure until the end.

He was also known for having a good personality.

There was no reason to refuse.

“I think Raon said he wanted to go.”

“yes. I’m also cautious, but I’ve always wanted to visit once.”

“Since Yumi likes children, I don’t think there will be any problems.”

“thank you. Seong-hyeon.”

“It’s not difficult, what?”

After giving a brief answer, Seonghyeon moved his gaze slightly to look at his computer monitor.

I haven’t been sitting in front of the computer for less than 5 minutes.

“I miss Chae-yoon.”

I wanted to see my daughter.

* * *

Time passed slowly.

I was also restless.

It’s something I’ve been doing for a long time, so it took me a while to figure it out.

It’s a good thing it wasn’t a very busy day, and I wouldn’t have been able to handle it properly if I had been busy.

“Finally, I am off work.”

Jo Sung-hyun muttered like that and put on his coat.

In the past, it was time to leave work, and I always stayed to do overtime, but today I got up as soon as it was time to leave.

Park Joong-won looked at Jo Sung-hyun, who was going fast, and waved his hand.

Jo Sung-hyun nodded and left the company.

We know it’s 6:30, so if you hurry up, you’ll be able to pick it up yourself and go home together.

“hello. Chae-yoon’s father.”

The kindergarten teacher saw Jo Sung-hyun and greeted him with a smile.

“I think it’s been a long time since I’ve seen you.”

“hello. Teacher. Long time no see.”

“I heard that he even took you home in the morning.”

“Yes, I took him to work before I left for work.”

“Maybe because of that, Chaeyoon felt good all day. Eat well today.”

“is that so?”

“yes. please wait for a moment. I will bring you.”

Having said that, the kindergarten teacher slyly turned around and entered the classroom.

Through the window, Seonghyeon looked into the classroom.

Chae-yoon was playing the piano.

All the other children are playing together, but Chae-yoon was surprised to see that she was playing alone in front of the baby piano in the corner.

I worry about whether or not I might be bullied.

His worries disappeared when he heard Chae-yoon’s soft piano playing.

I don’t know if a 7-year-old can say what ‘play’ is playing the piano.

It was definitely a performance.

different follow.

The piano sounded quietly.

It was a very familiar song.

I’ve heard it a lot, but I can’t remember where I heard it.

‘I don’t remember… .’

the song was so good

It’s too good to be considered a song for a 7-year-old child.

More than anything.

“What’s so crazy? Chae Yoon-ah.”

Chae-yoon’s emotions were fully contained in the song.

Other people may not have noticed it easily, but Jo Sung-hyun could have noticed it right away.

Because I was a musician.

The emotions contained in the song were immediately read.

Chaeyoon’s piano sound stopped.

I saw the teacher say something to her.

Chae-yoon stopped the piano and jumped up from her seat and ran to him.

“Dad!”

The child smiled broadly and cried.

The moment he saw Chae-yoon’s clear eyes, Jo Sung-hyun regretted it once more.

You were just working with a child like this.

The teacher followed and looked at Chae-yoon with a smile.

“These days, Chae-yoon learned to play the piano a lot at a piano academy. I hate it when other kids touch the piano. I think I like the piano a lot.”

“ah… okay.”

As Jo Sung-hyun answered that, he felt something strange and paused.

Did Chae-yoon ever go to a piano academy?

Let’s think about it there.

He blinked his eyes.

“uh… ?”

Chae-yoon never went to a piano academy.
