My Daughter is a Music Genius

The meeting went on and on.

Jo Seong-hyeon continued to admire director Jeong Hyun-seok as he continued his story.

He chuckled and shook his head.

“That’s great.”

Jeong Hyun-seok blinks at the sight of Jo Sung-hyun who suddenly says something like that during a meeting.

It wasn’t just that.

Jang Hyun-ah and Chae-yoon also look back at Seong-hyeon with puzzled faces.

Jo Sung-hyun tapped with his finger and touched the file in front of him.

“Like this, organize each scene… Basically, I think you have a very clear direction.”

“haha. It’s a work method I’ve always wanted to try, and I really wanted to make a special video from last time.”

“Still, it must have been difficult for you to care so much, thank you.”

“no. It’s me who cares like this only in the beginning, but after that, Seonghyun’s role is really big.”

Last time, I knew this from the first time I met Director Jung Hyun-suk.

Director Jung Hyun-seok later became famous as one of the best directors of sound.

Basically, he knew how to play music, and he knew how to play sound.

It is a pity that the area is limited to advertising.

‘After all, I reach out to movies, but… .’

It’s too late.

Using this special video as an opportunity, I had a desire for director Jung Hyun-suk to jump into the movie board in advance and make a good movie.

It was based on the expectation that if a film made by such a director would be able to get quite a lot of inspiration.

“What is that… I think I just need to listen to what you explained and work hard, right?”

Jo Sung-hyun shrugged his shoulders and said.

Jung Hyun-seok sheds a light smile at his words.

“It will be a little difficult because it is very different from working on a song. It’s not just one or two things to consider.”

“I am committed. I have some personal thoughts.”

Now, it was Jo Sung-hyun’s turn.

He slowly unravels the direction of his work.

Whereas director Hyun-seok Jeong took the lead in the story so far, now Seong-hyeon Jo takes the lead in the story and takes on the role of the ‘director’.

Director Jeong Hyun-seok listened to Seong-hyun’s explanation with a serious face and calmly.

“The way Darjeeling usually uses sounds is basically a way of continuing the song.”

I’ve seen quite a few Darjeeling’s movies, and I’ve been watching it over and over again with my kids recently, so I knew how Darjeeling uses sound.

I didn’t do any great analysis, I just hear it.

“Yes. Either continue the song naturally, or make a different version of the same song for each character.”

Darjeeling was very clever.

Although he makes a theme song for each character, Darjeeling also makes the theme song for the entire movie.

Tear off three or four melodic lines of that theme song.

One line is given to each character.

When each character appears or when changing scenes, naturally use the melody to keep the flow going, and make the sound as empty as possible.

So, quite a lot of songs are used in one movie, and different versions of the same song are made.

Something a little different from the usual Darjeeling movies was ‘The Kingdom of the Winds’.

“I don’t want to go that normal way. I want to create a character-centric sound, not a song-centric sound.”

Of course, that’s not to say that other Darjeeling films aren’t character-centric.

He only talks about the way he uses sounds.

In ‘Kingdom of the Wind’, we used a really true character-centric sound.

Cho Seong-hyun wanted to work on a sound similar to ‘Kingdom of the Wind’ rather than another Darjeeling movie.

Of course, it is something that takes a lot of physical labor, but I really want to do it.

The result will be as complete as the cost of the labor you spend.

“It’s good. Character-centric sound. To do that, you must have a solid understanding of the character… .”

Director Jung Hyun-seok blurted out the end of his speech, and then smiled lightly.

The person who will be the main character in the special video is Jo Chae-yoon.

There was no reason that Jo Sung-hyun lacked understanding of his daughter.

No, in the first place… Even if Jo Sung-hyun is working on the sound himself, would Chae-yoon just sit and watch?

It is obvious that we will be working together.

“Just, what… I look forward to it.”

Director Jeong Hyun-seok said.

Seong-hyeon smiled and nodded.

So, that day’s meeting was over.

* * *

“Chae Yoon-ah.”

“yes?”

“Shall we run the Kingdom of the Winds today?”

“great!”

Chae-yoon confirms with her eyes twinkling.

He liked most Darjeeling movies, but his favorite was ‘The Kingdom of the Winds’.

“Today, let’s watch the second movie.”

“yes!”

Chae-yoon quickly responded to Jo Sung-hyun’s words and headed towards the TV.

Jo Sung-hyun smiled lightly at the child’s behavior and went to the kitchen to get a simple kettle.

Probably, once you start watching a movie, you will be completely absorbed in the movie until it’s all over.

After you start watching a movie, you won’t even have time to go grab a snack, so pack something in advance.

Put a snack in front of you.

Jo Seong-hyeon revived the Kingdom of the Wind.

Whew.

The wind starts to blow.

So four hours passed.

Seong-hyeon Cho had to shed admiration the whole time watching.

‘Really, the more I look at it, the more crazy I am… .’

Han Ji-hyuk, who worked on the sound of the Kingdom of the Wind, is not a real genius.

Jo Sung-hyun thought about it and shook his head.

To be honest, after watching the movie, I lost more confidence.

Because it was so perfect.

It’s ridiculous to use a song, and to use the surrounding sounds to make a song.

To the extent that it is impossible to understand whether this is possible because of talent, or whether it is literally the result of investment of time and labor.

Although he was confident that he could produce such a result if he put a lot of time into it… It wasn’t the ‘Kingdom of the Winds’.

‘Still, I’ll try to follow my toes for once.’

Seong-hyeon Jo stood up with that thought.

Since I had seen two movies down, time flew by in a flash.

While Chae-yoon was concentrating throughout the movie, she admired Jo Sung-hyun when she admired it.

That was the child’s limit.

As soon as the movie ended, Chae-yoon began to doze off as if she was tired.

The child eventually fell asleep quickly, leaning on Jo Sung-hyun’s arm.

Jo Seong-hyeon smirked and took Chae-yoon in her arms and headed to bed.

After placing the child on the bed and making sure he is sleeping well.

Jo Seong-hyeon immediately entered the study.

He turns on the desktop and goes to work quickly.

However, the speed of the song work was not that fast.

Compared to usual, the situation is much slower.

It was natural because I had to make the song while considering the sound work.

“I make a song… It’s hard to work properly until filming starts in earnest, so I’ll have to start recording from tomorrow.”

You need to manage your time well.

After all, it’s a sound job, and it’s difficult to proceed if the video doesn’t come out to a certain extent.

Before that, I would only make songs to be used in the special video, and the full-scale sound work would be able to start little by little after filming began.

But until then, you can’t just leave your hands without doing anything.

I had to adjust my schedule so that I didn’t get too busy.

‘You should think about it in advance.’

Jo Sung-hyun thought to himself.

Originally, Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon were incredibly fast in their songwriting.

However, in reality, their song work speed is insanely fast, and that’s not the case… .

‘After all, the level of perfection in a song depends on the depth of thought.’

The reason why Jo Sung-hyun and Chae-yoon can quickly create a high-quality song is because there is a depth of thought in the end.

Usually, Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon keep thinking about the song, and they repeat the process of creating and erasing a song in their mind as if they were breathing.

I don’t do it consciously, I just don’t know.

So, to actually work on a song, when I sat in front of the piano or in a chair, I was able to create a song in a snap.

In fact, Jo Sung-hyeon and Chae-yoon’s songwriting was just a process of sorting out their worries.

The reason Jo Sung-hyun’s song work is slow right now is that he has to start thinking about both video and sound at the same time from the beginning.

Jo Sung-hyun continued his work.

He fell asleep around 4:00 in the morning.

“They say that musicals are different in the Kingdom of the Wind.”

“… … .”

I was working on it, and Hyuna Jang came over and talked for a while.

From https://readwn.com

Music is different.

At those words, Jo Sung-hyun narrowed his brow.

“How do you say it’s different?”

“The sound was a little special in the movie. I’m not a music genius, but I can tell that the sound was special from the point of view of the general public.”

“Yes, I can.”

Jo Sung-hyun nodded his head in affirmation.

Jang Hyun-ah continues to speak quietly.

“They say that using sound in a musical is really special, just like in the movie.”

“I am curious. What would be different?”

To be honest, Jo Seong-hyeon did not completely believe Jang Hyun-ah’s words.

it’s a musical

Films can be recorded and painstakingly worked on sound, but musicals are completely different.

The song had to be sung by musical actors, so it had to be far less complete than the video.

No matter how great a person comes out, there is no way to always show 100% of their abilities.

Still, I was curious.

It’s not a video, but how did you use the sound differently?

If you watch a musical once, you will find great inspiration.

Not only Jo Sung-hyun but also Chae-yoon would like it a lot.

“I’ll fly to America and see you later.”

Jang Hyun-ah said so and raised her thumb slightly.

Seong-Hyeon Cho smiled.

The musical ‘Kingdom of the Winds’ is only performed on Broadway.

You have to go there to see a musical… I don’t know if I’ll ever get a chance to go.

Even if I could go to Broadway, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to get a ticket.

“Let’s start with work.”

Cho Seong-hyeon summed up the situation in a simple way.

he got up from his seat.

It was time to start recording the album.
