My Daughter is a Music Genius

Episode 4

No matter how unsuccessful father Jo Seong-hyeon was, he can remember whether his daughter went to an academy or not.

As he remembers, Chae-yoon will not attend piano lessons at this age and for the foreseeable future.

‘this… Is it possible?’

Is it possible for a 7-year-old child, who has never learned to play the piano, to ‘play’ it with common sense?

It was confusing.

“I… father?”

“Oh, yes. Teacher.”

“Are you going to continue to pick up Chae-yoon by yourself in the future?”

“Unless something special happens, I think I will continue to pick up.”

Cho Sung-hyun replied.

In his last life, he was going to do everything he couldn’t do to Chae-yoon.

And one of them is going to and from school with Chaeyoon.

The time to go to work is tight, but the manager’s job is a little erratic.

Although Jo Seong-hyeon tends to work more in-house rather than on-site, Park Joong-won will understand even if he is sometimes late.

Of course, the best thing to do is to move quickly without being late.

“Then you will know that.”

“thank you.”

Seong-hyeon Jo bowed his head to the teacher and turned around.

I was driving my company car.

He had to go to the studio from 11 am tomorrow, so he purposely pulled out the company car.

There was no individual difference, so it was good for him to be able to drive a company car.

“Dad drives!”

As soon as Jo Sung-hyun lightly hugged her and put her in the passenger seat, Chae-yoon said in a bright voice whether she was excited.

Jo Sung-hyun smirked and fastened his seat belt.

After getting into the driver’s seat, he rummaged through his pockets, put on wireless earphones, and called his mother, Lee Soo-hyun.

– Uh, son. What’s up.

As if for some reason, I heard a strange voice.

Originally, Jo Sung-hyun wasn’t a good phone person.

It was partly because he was busy with work, and partly because he didn’t like the phone very much because he often had to do his work over the phone in the first place.

“Chaeyoon says I’ll pick it up and go.”

-you? what happened all of a sudden?

Lee Soo-hyun asked in a slightly surprised voice.

Jo Sung-hyun glanced at Chae-yoon, who was staring at him with an excited face, and then opened his mouth.

“It was just, Mom told me to take some time. You made time.”

– When did you hear me… Still, how good is it that Chaeyoon takes the time to pick you up like this?

Lee Soo-hyun’s voice tone rises slightly.

Pleasant voice.

She was very worried about her son and granddaughter, so the fact that Jo Seong-hyeon went to kindergarten to pick up Chae-yoon is something she likes.

“Oh, that’s right, Mom. Didn’t Chaeyoon go to piano lessons?”

-Academy? What school is a 7 year old? Then you just have to play.

“Is not it?”

Jo Sung-hyun tilted his head as he answered that.

He didn’t remember, or even thought that Chaeyoon wanted to play the piano so much that she kept it a secret from Jo Sunghyun.

But it doesn’t seem like he really did.

My mind was confused.

Obviously, the scene I just saw was a scene that would make me think it was normal to attend a piano academy.

‘If you didn’t go to piano academy, who else did you learn the piano from?’

Jo Sung-hyun was thinking to himself, but maybe his silence was too long, Lee Soo-hyun spoke first.

-why? Does Chae-yoon want to attend piano academy?

“No, not that. I just went to kindergarten, and Chaeyoon was playing the piano, so I asked.”

-okay… ? I didn’t even see Chae Yoon playing the piano. how is it? If you look at it, you’re on the artistic/physical side. Do you think you play well?

Do you think you can play well?

Hearing those words, Jo Sung-hyun shed a smirk inwardly.

Not just as someone who has been in this industry for several years, but as a musician.

No, even someone who doesn’t know music would have thought the same thing.

‘It wasn’t just about hitting well.’

Of course, it may not be possible if we compare it with children who have studied music professionally from a young age and even go to competitions.

But, at least considering the general children as a reference point, it was definitely a great performance.

“yes. he played the piano well Our Chae-yoon.”

When he said that, Chae-yoon, who was listening next to him, widened his eyes.

Jo Sung-hyun smiled at Chae-yoon and continued the conversation.

– Chaeyoon is good at everything. I can hear you well, you don’t know how pretty you are. You make me a little prettier too.

“I see.”

– Oh, and go shopping when you have time. Does it make sense that there is only kimchi and water in the refrigerator?

“Yes, I see. I’ll go grocery shopping when I get home today.”

Jo Seong-hyeon smiled and hung up the phone, turned his head to look at Chae-yoon.

Chae-yoon just smiled and looked at Jo Sung-hyun.

I don’t know if it makes me feel good because I’m in the car with him, or because I’m happy to say that I play the piano well.

“Chae Yoon-ah, what’s the song you wrote earlier?”

I’m sure I heard it somewhere, but I can’t remember.

Chae-yoon heard it somewhere and even saw a video of him playing the piano, so he must have followed it.

“telephone!”

“yes?”

“Daddy phone song!”

Still smiling, she says.

And that moment.

different follow.

Jo Sung-hyun trembled and trembled.

The phone was ringing through the earphones in my ears.

A slight sense of incongruity overtook him, but before his brain could recognize the situation, his body moved first to answer the call.

“Yes, how are you?”

– Uh, Sung Hyun-ah. I heard you left work, I’m sorry. Can you pick up Yumi? The only person I can ask for is you. really.

Park Joong-won’s voice.

Jo Sung-hyun blinked his eyes and then came to his senses.

Hearing a thumping sound behind him, he stepped on the accelerator and opened his mouth.

“Team leader, honestly, I’m leaving, so you’re trying to roll it out for the last time, right?”

– Because there is only you. You know very well that Yumi can only take care of you if it’s not me.

At Park Joong-won’s words, Jo Seong-hyeon let out a small sigh.

It’s been two days since I came back, so maybe it’s too tight.

It’s a situation where I’ve only been able to figure out my work after groping for a long time.

He continued speaking while looking at the side where Chae-yoon was.

“… Pickup is possible, but I’m with my daughter right now.”

– Yumi, you don’t really care about things like that. are you okay. What’s the big deal about going with your daughter?

Before I become a good employee, I want to be a good father.

If Park Joong-won had just asked me to do something here, I would have refused.

However, when asked to go with Chae-yoon, Jo Sung-hyun did not refuse any more.

“… I will go.”

After answering that, Sung-hyun finished the phone call and looked at Chae-yoon.

“Chae Yoon-ah.”

“yes?”

Chaeyoung blinks her eyes.

It brought a smile to myself at the sight.

“I’m really sorry, Dad, but I think I need to get some work done.”

“Worth with Chae-yoon?”

“yes. together.”

“I like Chae-yoon!”

As he raised his hand and spoke, Jo Sung-hyun couldn’t help but smile.

“Then let’s go.”

“yes!”

Chaeyoung nodded her head.

In the end, Jo Sung-hyun headed to the studio to pick up Yumi.

When we almost arrived near the studio.

different follow.

Jo Sung-hyun’s phone rang.

He paused and picked up the call.

And as he answered the call, he could realize that he had heard this song somewhere.

The piano that Chaeyun played earlier in kindergarten.

very similar to it

‘uh… ?’

As soon as I sensed something strange, a voice came through the earphones.

-brother? where are you? Can I go down slowly now?

“Oh, Yumi. You only have to go around that corner, so if you come down now, I think the time will be right.”

-I’ll go down now.

“That’s right, Yumi.”

– Yes, brother.

“I came with my daughter because I was in a hurry, are you okay?”

-Wow. I had a brother and a daughter. Why didn’t I know? Anyway, I like it. I’ll go down.

I was able to arrive in front of Yumi’s studio in no time.

Yumi presses the button to open the ride door, but Chae-yoon has a slightly nervous expression on her face.

“Chae Yoon-ah, are you okay?”

“Uh, uh… I can do it!”

I was nervous, so I reacted with a slightly stiff body.

Jo Sung-hyun smiled lightly and turned his gaze to Yumi, who got into the car.

“hello. brother.”

“hello. Yumi.”

“Great.”

Jo Seong-hyeon glanced back at Yumi’s actions as she suddenly took a deep breath and spoke.

Yumi looked at Chaeyoon in the passenger seat and her eyes were twinkling.

“hi. What is the name of our pretty princess?”

“This is Chae-yoon Cho!”

“My older sister is Jung Yu-mi.”

Yumi introduced herself while imitating Chaeyun’s tone.

She pulled her body forward and held out the jelly to Chae-yoon.

Famous Teddy Bear Jelly.

“This is what Chaeyoon eats. don’t give it to daddy got it?”

At Yumi’s words, Jo Sung-hyun laughed.

However, Chae-yoon’s face became serious.

She looked at Jo Sung-hyun and Yu-mi alternately.

What makes you so worried?

Jo Sung-hyun, who thought he would receive the jelly, looked at Chae-yoon, who did not receive the jelly, curiously.

Chaeyoon finally raised her head and looked at Yumi and asked.

“Dad can’t give it to me… ?”

“OMG.”

When Chae-yoon asked in a slightly sad voice, Yumi made a sound like she was bewildered.

Jo Seong-hyeon was a little perplexed and glanced at her.

“No, Chae Yoon-ah. I’m sorry my sister. Give it to Dad.”

Only then did Chae-yoon’s face brighten.

“Thank you. sister.”

Chaeyoon greeted Yumi with a bright face, took the jelly and opened the bag.

She carefully stared at the colorful jellies, then shoved one into her mouth.

Then, perhaps because I wanted to, I paused, and then slowly turned my head to look at Jo Sung-hyun.

“Dad… .”

“yes?”

“Daddy. What color?”

Chaeyoung asks.

It seemed to mean what color jelly you like.

Feeling the desire to hand out jelly to himself, Jo Seong-hyeon spontaneously brought a smile to his lips.

Isn’t it so lovely

‘Leave this kid… .’

why did he

With that thought in mind, Jo Sung-hyun opened his mouth.

“Dad is also red… ”

While talking, Chaeyoon trembles.

“Oh, do you like red jelly too?”

Are you trying to stay calm?

Jo Seong-hyeon, who saw the red jelly in Chae-yoon’s mouth, whose voice was strangely trembling, changed his words in a hurry.

“… I’d rather have green than that. Dad doesn’t like red jelly very much.”

When Jo Sung-hyeon said that, he smiled as if Chae-yoon did when he found green jelly and offered it to Jo Seong-hyun.

“ruler! I’ll give it to you, Dad!”

How cute and happy it is when a child smiles brightly and gives jelly.

Only those with children will know.

Jo Sung-hyun laughed and ate the jelly from Chae-yoon.

“Then Chae-yoon will eat the red jelly that Dad hates!”

Saying that, Chaeyoon puts red jelly in her mouth again.

Yumi held her breath at the cute appearance and then opened her mouth.

“Oppa, isn’t Chaeyoon so cute? also good They really look alike, so anyone can tell that they are your brother’s daughter.”

“Do you look alike?”

“yes. You are very pretty because you look like your brother.”

At those words, Jo Seong-hyeon turned his head to look at Chae-yoon and met her eyes.

Clear eyes were shining.

It certainly looked like him.

“… I know.”

Is his talent for music similar to himself?
