The movie ‘The Kingdom of the Wind’ was really, really overwhelming.
Jo Sung-hyun still couldn’t forget the thrill of seeing ‘Kingdom of the Wind’ for the first time, so he was looking forward to it as much as Chae-yoon was excited.
Once again, can you feel that thrill?
Jo Sung-hyun gulped and swallowed his saliva.
For a few seconds after all the lights in the theater went out, nothing appeared on the screen.
Just a black screen.
How about Cho Sung-hyun in the first place? what? I wanted
I was thinking that something was wrong.
But not this time.
Because I already know that it was originally staged that way.
Whew.
A very small wind blew.
If you don’t listen, you won’t hear it.
As if Chaeyoon had heard it, she was moving her body gently, making a concentrating face.
Seong-hyeon Jo, who glanced at the child and then moved his gaze back to the screen, concentrated on the movie.
The sound of the wind was barely audible at first, then gradually grew louder and loud enough that everyone could recognize it as the sound of the wind.
and.
perch.
A completely different kind of sound came out.
Again, this is a very small sound.
Similar to when the wind began to sound, it also began to get closer.
Whew.
perch.
Whew.
hooked.
hey hey.
The sound of the wind was heard, and the sound of something breaking or scooping was heard repeatedly.
And it soon became a beat.
Already, the music had begun.
Because ‘Kingdom of the Wind’ was a movie specialized in music to the extent that the entire running time of the movie could be called a piece of music.
To the beat created by repeated sounds of wind and scooping.
In the distance, I heard someone singing in a loud voice.
A sound that sounded like an echo or a whisper.
The screen was still black.
Some are perplexed, while others focus on the sound.
Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon belonged to the group focusing on sound.
It seems that Chaeyoon was very interested in making the beat with the sound of the wind and the sound of scooping something.
Because Chaeyoon’s fingers, which were moving very minutely, were tapping in time to the beat and tapping Seonghyun’s arm.
perch.
Finally, with the sound of something scooping, the screen brightened.
Only then did the audience understand what the situation was now.

Men are working in the fields and singing labor songs.
The wind blows at a constant beat, and the sound of dust scooping can be heard.
The labor songs sung in a thick voice had a strangely heart-wrenching charm.
Chae-yoon leans forward a little.
It looks like you want to hear and see it a little closer.
The screen shone a small fallen leaf from a certain moment.
hoo.
With the sound of the wind, the leaves gently flew through the air.
A large city is seen in the background of the Middle Ages.
The leaves continued to move with the wind.
Passing by an old lady carrying a basket full of apples.
It rests on the back of a horse and is pushed back by the wind and floats in the air.
The noise of the noisy market.
Again, the sound of horses walking and squeaking.
children’s laughter.
All the sounds were in perfect harmony and became one song.
There are no lyrics at all, it’s just the loud chatter of various characters.
When it came together, it became a song.
The fallen leaves that passed the market were lifted high by the sudden gust of wind.
higher, higher.
The place where the fallen leaves reached was a castle in the center of the city.
The fallen leaves were placed on the half-open window sill and the screen no longer showed them.
As the screen is switched, it enters the window and illuminates the room.
It is a scene where two girls are laughing and playing together.
The close-up shows that these children are the main characters of ‘The Kingdom of the Wind’.
And the screen moved naturally, illuminating the king and queen looking at the children.
The sound still doesn’t stop.
Birds chirping from somewhere.
A slight rattling of the windows from the wind.
The sound of children laughing.
It all came together and I felt literally overwhelmed by the sound.
The movie went on and on.
It was a film that could not be relaxed even for a moment.
It’s definitely a peaceful family movie.
Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon tried to listen to every sound in the movie without letting them relax for a moment.
I’ve seen this movie several times already, but seeing it at the cinema with Chaeyoon was a new feeling.
It felt as if the vivid sound really hit my ears.
Jo Sung-hyun and Chae-yoon were much more sensitive to sound than the others.
Therefore, they were able to grasp the details that they naturally missed without missing out.
for example.
The sound of a squirrel walking and the branches swaying, the leaves hitting each other, and the sound of the characters walking.
The fact that the rattle of the horse walking with him is strangely resonating with the same beat.
or.
When the main character sings, the rustling of the moving leaves produces various notes and creates a chord, though weak.
right, just like now.
-Would you like to play with the leaves with me?
A song about a younger sister who turns away from the world and lives in a room confined to her own room through a door.
It was also the song that Chaeyoon sang the most so far.
‘Would you like to play with leaves?’.
While my sister was singing that song, the screen was illuminating her and her sister at the same time.
On one side, she had fallen leaves piled up in front of the door, just like her sister did when she was little.
On the other side of the room, the fallen leaves come in one by one through a slightly opened window, and the wind creates a circle in the room, reflecting the whirlwind around her sister.
The sound of the wind and the rustling of fallen leaves were harmonizing with my sister’s ‘Would you like to play with the leaves?’
I really admire Darjeeling for making use of all these ridiculous details.
Without Darjeeling, this would never have been possible.
‘Kingdom of the Winds’, which was like a two-hour music video, was over.
Jo Sung-hyun exhaled only then and turned his head to check Chae-yoon.
Chae-yoon was looking at the screen where the ending credits were going up with a blank face.
A shocked face.
It was as if he had seen something that should not exist in the world.
Jo Sung-hyun smiled and reached out and closed Chae-yoon’s mouth, which was slightly opened.
Chae-yoon makes a hoarse and strange noise, then turns her head to look at Jo Sung-hyun.
The child’s face was strange.
It seemed that he was stiff, and he seemed so excited that he did not know what to do.
Jo Sung-hyun was the first face he had ever seen.
It’s like a face that contains dozens of emotions at the same time.
“It was fun?”
“… yes. I want to see you again.”
“Are you going to see me again later?”
Cho Sung-hyun was also welcome.
I don’t know how long it’s been since I watched ‘Kingdom of the Wind’, but first of all, it was so much fun to listen to.
I even thought that if I worked hard, I might be able to make music like this at least once in my life.

Maybe Chaeyoon also wants to go home and do music right away?
“Chae Yoon-ah, do you want to go home now? Or eat and listen… ah.”
Jo Sung-hyun realized while speaking.
No one touched the popcorn and drinks I bought to eat while watching the movie.
Jo Sung-hyeon and Chae-yoon had also been concentrating on the movie and had completely forgotten about it.
Cho Sung-hyun, who was laughing because it was ridiculous, put a piece of popcorn in his mouth.
Chae-yoon reached out and took the popcorn out of the popcorn bucket and put it in her mouth.
Until the end credits were all uploaded, Jo Sung-hyun and Chae-yoon stayed seated and ate and drank popcorn and drinks.
The rest was a waste, but it was too difficult to take home with me, so I had no choice but to eat enough to eat here and throw it away.
“Chae Yoon-ah. Now look at that again.”
When the end credits are almost up.
Jo Sung-hyun said to Chae-yoon.
Chae-yoon turns her head back to the screen.
Just in time, all the end credits went up, and the cookie video came out.
After watching the cookie video, Jo Sung-hyun and Chae-yoon left the theater.
In the end, we decided to eat dinner at home.
Chae-yoon continued to have a blank face, and Jo Seong-hyeon also thought that it would be better for the two of us to eat together at home rather than having a crazy meal outside because the film had a long aftertaste.
“Chae Yoon-ah. hurray.”
As soon as Jo Seong-hyeon came home, he took off Chae-yoon’s clothes first.
After removing the child’s coat, and removing the gloves and scarf.
Take off the knit you wore inside.
Chae-yoon quietly hurrahed and took off her knitwear.
after washing your hands.
Seong-hyeon Jo organized his clothes.
There is still some time left until evening.
While I was sitting on the sofa to think about what to cook, Chae-yoon slowly approached the piano.
The child sat in front of the piano, and at that moment, the little mermaid doll fell.
Normally, I would have hugged the Little Mermaid doll quickly, but not now.
Just sit still, looking down at the keyboard.
Jo Sung-hyun looked at Chae-yoon with a strange expression.
Once he got up from the sofa, he picked up the mermaid doll that had fallen on the floor and put it back in front of the piano.
Still, Chaeyoon was sitting in front of the piano, looking down at the keyboard.
This is completely different from usual.
Sitting in front of the piano is the same.
It was the first time I had spent so long just staring at the keyboard.
It’s the first time the little mermaid doll has fallen, and it’s the first time she’s been still.
“… … .”
For the first time, Jo Sung-hyeon quietly watched Chae-yoon.
I just came to see ‘Kingdom of the Wind’.
Seong-hyeon Cho, who has seen it for the first time, was also shocked.
What do you think about Chaeyoon who saw the movie for the first time?
Even, it was the first time that Chaeyoon had heard the finished version of a song she had been practicing over and over.
Of course, the feeling had to be different.
How much time has passed
Finally, Chae-yoon moved her hand.
The child put his hand on the keyboard.
Seonghyun took a deep breath.
“Whew… .”
until he exhales again.
Chaeyun just put her hand on the keyboard for a moment and did not start playing.
And eventually.
Chae-yoon lowered her hand from the keyboard again, turned and came down from the piano chair.
Jo Sung-hyun’s face hardened subtly.
something is wrong
