Even on the way home from work and Chaeyoon with me.
Jo Sung-hyun was immersed in trouble.
No matter how much you think about it, it is definitely better to hear your own vocals in it, and it was right that the level of perfection of the song went up sharply.
Is it right to put vocals into the song as an artist for the sake of the perfection of the song and the album?
Or would it be right to quietly work behind the scenes as a producer and play a supporting role for Chae-yoon, as I have adhered to until now?
“Dad?”
“Ah, yes. Chae Yoon-ah.”
Chae-yoon took Jo Sung-hyun’s hand and called him.
Jo Seong-hyeon finally came to his senses and turned his head to look at Chae-yoon.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been thinking so deeply about my work even with my child right next to me.
Usually when I’m with Chaeyoon, it’s just fun, or even if I’m worried, all I have to do is worry about my child.
“Dad’s face is weird.”
“yes? Strange?”
Jo Sung-hyun asked Chae-yoon with a puzzled face.
The child nodded and hardened his face.
It becomes a serious, troubled face.
Realizing that the child was imitating his own expression, Jo Sung-hyun smiled and hugged Chae-yoon.
The speed at which young children grow is truly beyond imagination, and Chaeyoon has grown and weighed much more than last year.
It has been several months since Jo Sung-hyun returned, but the child had already grown noticeably.
‘But, that doesn’t mean he’s too big to hold a child.’
If you can’t hold Chae-yoon, you’ll have to worry about Jo Sung-hyun’s body.
I’m not the type to exercise very hard, but I’m still managing my stamina at a minimum, so walking with Chaeyoon wasn’t a problem at all.
“Did your dad look like that?”
“yes.”
Chae Yoon-yi wraps her arms around Jo Sung-hyun’s neck and gives her an answer.
Jo Seong-hyeon smiled and opened his mouth.
“I think it was because I had a problem.”
“What are you worried about?”
“Just, what… .”
Cho Sung-hyun didn’t know where to begin, so he blurted out the end of his speech.
Then, Chaeyoon narrows her eyes.
It’s pretty similar whether Yumi is imitating her playfully glaring face.
In the end, Jo Seong-hyeon looked into the child’s eyes and, because it was so cute, he lightly kissed Chae-yoon’s forehead.
“Why do you look like that?”
“I told you that you shouldn’t hide anything from your family.”
“who?”
“Grandma.”
Chae-yoon said so, and patted Jo Sung-hyun’s shoulder with her hand as if to say something quickly, and took care of him.
Jo Seong-hyeon continued with a smile.
“Dad is preparing Yena unnie’s album together this time.”
“right.”
“But, Yena unnie asked Dad if he could sing a song with him.”
“… ? I will do it too!”
The child opens his eyes wide and speaks quickly.
Jo Sung-hyun suddenly looked at the excited child and looked at him with puzzled eyes.
“Is it Chaeyoon?”
“yes. Karaoke was fun.”
The child responds with a bright face and nodded.
When Seong-hyeon realized that Chae-yoon didn’t understand what he was saying, he raised his hand and stroked Chae-yoon’s hair and explained it again.
“It’s not about singing in a karaoke room, it’s about singing a song that will be on the album together.”
“… really?”
Chae-yoon looked at Jo Sung-hyun with a surprised face.
Only then did the child understand Jo Sung-hyun’s words correctly.
It was Chaeyoon who watched Yena Seo’s album and Yumi’s album making process right next to her.
There was no way that I didn’t know what it meant to sing a song that would be on the album together.
“Then everyone else listens to your song, too?”
“Well… Is not it. If Dad says he wants to be with Yena unnie, that’s the case, and if Dad refuses, it’s not.”
“lets do it!”
Chae-yoon shouted while hugging Jo Sung-hyun’s neck.
At the sound of Chae-yoon’s voice ringing right next to her ear, Jo Sung-hyun frowned and smiled.
“Do you want Daddy to sing with Yena unnie?”
“yes!”
There was no hesitation in the child’s answer.
It seems that Chae Yoon-i sincerely wanted Jo Sung-hyun to participate in the song with Seo Ye-na.
“why? My father is a little burdened, so I am contemplating whether to say no.”
“But my father is a good singer. You sing as well as Yena and Sister.”
“Not like Yena and my sister.”
“It’s true.”
“okay?”
“Yumi unnie said that my dad was really good at singing. Hyuna unnie did the same.”
Chae Yoon-i brought out the names of Yu-mi and Jang Hyeon-ah, appealing to the fact that Jo Seong-hyun is a good singer.
Jo Sung-hyun burst into laughter when he saw Chae-yoon’s efforts to make her sing along with Seo Ye-na.
“So, if your father sings as well as Yena and Unnie, then you sing well. Why do you think it would be good for Chaeyun to sing with her dad?”
“I think it would be cool.”
“yes?”
“uh… And you like to sing Daddy’s songs.”
chae yoon yi says:
Jo Sung-hyun blinked at the child’s words.
Did you like to sing yourself?
‘I don’t hate it.’
However, I wasn’t the only one who liked to sing in front of people.
It’s nice to just sing with people I know, but I tend to think that there’s no need to let the world hear your songs.
But, if it really is, what is the reason for Jo Sung-hyun’s conflict?
‘Just for the sake of the perfection of the song?’
No, if the completeness of the song is a problem, you can change the song itself in the first place.
You just have to make a new song and proceed without any shortage, and you don’t need to stick to this song.
We could just compromise a little bit and bring in another vocalist instead of Jo Sung-hyun to feature.
There were many ways.
Then, why is Jo Sung-hyun himself worrying like this?
As I thought about it, I remembered playing with Chae-yoon in my head.
On the street, a video of the busking people borrowing their instruments and playing together was uploaded to Me Tube and achieved a high number of views.
Numerous comments were posted.
We each talked about our feelings about music.
Some admire it, some just show interest, and some say something completely irrelevant.
Perhaps, Jo Sung-hyun wants to experience such a thing again.
holding a child and walking.
Jo Seong-hyeon moved his face gently and rubbed his cheek with Chae-yoon’s.
The child sheds a bright smile and quickly pulls her head back to avoid Jo Sung-hyun’s face.
“Chae Yoon-ah.”
“Yes.”
“Dad, shall we try?”
“I love it!”
To Jo Sung-hyun’s question, Chae-yoon quickly answered.
So, what I had been thinking about for a long time was solved.
In the end, whatever the child wants.
Also, it was what Seong-hyeon Cho wanted.

When I got home, I was preparing dinner with my child.
Tonight’s dinner is tofu sushi.
It’s been a long time since I’ve made tofu sushi, and maybe it’s because I had the experience of making dumplings last time?
Chae-yoon became quite good at making fried tofu sushi.
“Dad. Look at this!”
The child says while lifting the tofu sushi he has made.
Jo Sung-hyun did not put rice in the tofu, but looked up and looked at the tofu sushi made by Chae-yoon.
It is a small tofu sushi that is only half the size of what he made.
“Well done.”
“Is not it?”
Chae-yoon smiles brightly and glances at Jo Sung-hyun’s eyes.
The child stopped while trying to put the fried tofu sushi he had just made in the place where he had prepared all of the sushi.
Jo Sung-hyun glanced at Chae-yoon and opened his mouth.
“Can I have one before dinner?”
“Is Daddy hungry too?”
Chae-yoon gives Jo Seong-hyeon the sushi he made with his freshly made tofu.
Jo Seong-hyeon bowed down with a smile on his face and ate the tofu sushi the child gave him.
Chae-yoon put tofu sushi in Jo Sung-hyun’s mouth, smiled with a happy face, and opened her mouth.
It means you want to feed yourself.
Jo Sung-hyun cut the freshly made tofu sushi in half and put it in Chae-yoon’s mouth.
Even when cut in half, it fills the child’s mouth.
Chaeyoon mumbled, chewed the tofu sushi, and swallowed it, and opened her mouth again as if to ask for the other half.
In the end, Jo Seong-hyeon had to feed the other half of the fried sushi he had in his hand.
“tasty?”
“yes. Daddy is delicious too, isn’t it?”
“Who made it? Of course it’s delicious.”
“I made it.”
Chae-yoon says with a confident face.
Jo Seong-hyeon and the child are happily making tofu sushi.
woo woo.
Jo Sung-hyun’s smartphone, which was placed on the piano in one side of the living room, began to vibrate.
Jo Seong-hyeon glanced at him and took off the plastic gloves he had on his hands.
“I’ll call you and come back.”
“yes. I’ll work hard on it. I won’t eat it, so don’t worry.”
Chae-yoon says with sullen eyes.
Jo Seong-hyeon smiled and seemed to watch playfully, making eye contact with the child and then turning around.
wow.
The smartphone was still vibrating, and Jo Sung-hyun quickly answered the call.
“Yes, Professor.”
It’s been a long time since I got a call from Professor Shin Hwa.
While Chae-yoon was making tofu sushi, she looked up at the word professor.
Seong-hyeon Cho saw such a child and smiled.
– Yes, Seong-hyeon. What were you doing?
“I was preparing dinner with Chae-yoon. Professor?”
-Oh, I just finished dinner and am on my way home.
Professor Shinhwa’s voice was a little excited.
Feel good shape.
Hearing a small laugh from the side, it seemed that he was not alone.
“Aha.”
– It’s nothing, um… I thought the time had come, so I contacted him.
“When?”
-Yes, it’s been quite a while since last lesson. I saw Chaeyoon at school in the middle, but I didn’t give a separate lesson.
“Ah, yes it is.”
After the last lesson, Professor Shin Kyung-hwa visits Chae-yoon’s school directly.
I was invited to a concert at the Korea University of Arts, but I didn’t have time to teach separately.
That seems to have been taken care of.
-How’s the time the day after tomorrow?
“After Chae-yoon finishes school, it’s always free.”
– Then I’ll see you the day after tomorrow.
“All right. Thank you for always. professor.”
Seong-hyeon Cho expressed his sincere thanks to him.
Even though she was busy, she continued to take care of Chaeyoon and contacted her first, so it was natural to be grateful.
-Thank you, I thank you. Oh, this time I’m going to try it in a slightly more interesting format. That’s to be expected.
“… Yes, I look forward to it.”
So the call ended.
Seong-hyeon Jo put the smartphone in his pocket and blinked.
As long as Professor Shinhwa said that he would like to try the lesson in an interesting format… .
Really, what kind of lessons are there?
And how much can Chae-yoon be able to digest that lesson?
Certainly, it was expected.
