Jo Seong-hyeon gently stroked Chae-yoon’s hair.
There was still a little bit of water left, and there was a cool feeling on my fingertips.
Chae-yoon was looking at Seong-hyeon with a blank look, and Jo Seong-hyun, who could not avoid the gaze, eventually opened her mouth.
“Well. Because people have their original tastes. Chaeyoon’s performance may not have been her taste.”
Jo Sung-hyun said that and made a strange face.
Is that really true?
Chaeyoon’s performance didn’t match your taste?
That’s nonsense.
It’s a good performance, but saying it’s not good and saying it’s bad are two completely different things.
Now, those who insulted the decision of Chae Yoon-i and Jo Sung-hyun and the Seoul Orchestra were those who had never even heard of Cho Seong-hyun and Chae Yoon-i’s performances.
How do they get their tastes?
There… .
‘In the first place, if you’ve heard it, you’d know.’
If you hear that Chae-yoon’s performance is not a performance that can hide your taste, you will know.
After taking a deep breath, Jo Seong-hyeon opened his mouth again and corrected his own words.
“Probably, most of the people who say that Chaeyoon and Daddy play together is not good, have never heard of it in person.”
“… Why are you saying you don’t like it without even hearing it?”
Chaeyoung tilted her head.
Cho Sung-hyun felt speechless.
Well, that’s a difficult question to answer.
What reason should be attached to saying that it is bad without even hearing it?
In the end, Seong-hyeon shed a smirk.
“I know. Daddy doesn’t know either.”
After saying that, he lightly patted Chae-yoon on the shoulder.
The child notices Jo Sung-hyun’s will and looks back at the front.
Jo Seong-hyeon dried Chae-yoon’s hair and stroked the child’s hair with a soft hand.
Chae-yoon quickly became a pleasant face.
Jo Seong-hyeon, who was examining the child’s expression through the mirror, noticed that Chae-yoon’s hair was dry and turned the chair gently.
Chae-yoon’s body slowly turns.
Jo Seong-hyeon lightly kissed the child’s forehead and hugged Chae-yoon.
The child bursts into laughter.
As I lay on the bed holding Chae-yoon, Chae-yoon naturally entered Jo Sung-hyun’s arms.
He patted the child on the back and opened his mouth.
“Aren’t people really weird?”
“… yes. I still don’t know.”
“Why do you hate it?”
“yes. Everyone would like it if they heard him play with him.”
Chae-yoon said in a bright voice.
He had a face with serious concerns all day, but I feel a little more comfortable now, probably because he was talking to Jo Sung-hyun.
The child rested his forehead on Jo Sung-hyun’s chest and opened his mouth.
“Dad.”
“Yes, Chae Yoon-ah.”
“Aren’t people going to hate us after hearing our performance?”
“Well… Some people may not like it. Not everyone can like us.”
“right. There are kids at school who don’t like me very much.”
“right. But, it’s okay for Chaeyoon to have Youngjun, Hanyul, and Hyunseo.”
“no.”
The child shook his head.
At Chae-yoon’s action, Jo Sung-hyun’s eyes widened a little.

Maybe he cares a lot about children who don’t like him?
With that in mind, Chae-yoon continued.
“I’m fine because I have a father. Even if you have 100 friends, you can’t do it without Dad.”
Chaeyoung said in a clear voice.
A smile formed on Jo Sung-hyun’s lips at the child’s words.
How can you say so pretty?
Jo Seong-hyeon gave Chae-yoon a bit of strength to the arm that was holding him.
“Dad can’t be without Chae-yoon.”
He knew well that a life without Chae-yoon was a meaningless life.
At Jo Sung-hyun’s soft voice, Chae-yoon gave a pleasant smile.
The child shut his mouth for a moment, then spoke.
“Do a lot of people like our performance or a lot of people don’t like it?”
“Well. Maybe half and half?”
“I hope more people will listen to our performance soon. Then there will be a lot more people who like our performances.”
chae yoon yi says:
Seong-Hyeon Cho smiled.
It’s unreasonable now, but maybe the day will come when Chaeyoon’s performances and songs will be known to the world someday.
As Jang Hyun-ah said, if Chae-yoon really becomes like Paganini and Beethoven.
As I was thinking about it, Chae-yoon swish and raised her head.
His eyes seemed to suddenly remember something.
“why?”
“Do Yena unnie and Yumi unnie have people who like them and people who don’t like them?”
“… right.”
Jo Sung-hyun reluctantly answered.
Chae-yoon frowned, then opened her mouth.
“I miss Yena unnie and Yumi unnie.”
“now?”
“No, I am sleepy now. later.”
“Shall we ask Yena unnie and Yumi unnie? Let’s play together.”
“yes.”
Chaeyoung nodded and answered.
Jo Sung-hyun smiled and placed a hand over Chae-yoon’s eyes, which were gradually closing, and closed the child’s eyes completely.
“Let’s go to sleep today.”
He said.

The next day, the same routine was repeated.
I was very worried about what would happen if the child was shocked a lot, but fortunately, he looked strong, but… .
Perhaps because it was Chaeyoon, he was able to be that courageous.
Sometimes, Chaeyoon is thoughtful and, on the contrary, shows a childlike appearance.
This time, should I say half and half?
I was fortunate to not understand that people were swearing for no reason and to be in trouble.
If you focus on the ‘swearing’ itself and get hurt… I hate to even imagine
Jo Sung-hyun let out a small breath and moved forward.
“Seniors.”
As I was waiting for the elevator, I heard a familiar voice next to me.
“Oh, Hyuna. hello.”
“You seem to have a lot of thoughts.”
“I talked to Chae-yoon yesterday.”
“Ah yes. How about Chae-yoon?”
“I think I heard a story at school.”
“what should we do… .”
Jang Hyun-ah showed a worried face.
Jo Sung-hyun scratched the cheek at her expression.
“But, it turned out to be better than I expected.”
“okay?”
Hyuna Jang asked, blinking her eyes.
Jo Sung-hyun nodded and continued.
“Is it because I didn’t see people swearing at me, or because I didn’t really understand why people swear instead of paying attention to such things.”
“uh… .”
Hyuna Jang tilts her head.
It seems that Chae-yoon’s thoughts cannot be fully estimated.
Jo Sung-hyun was actually similar, so he just smiled.
Something cold touched his arm.
When she turned her head in surprise, Yena Seo was smiling.
Next to her, team leader Woo Kyung-soo was greeting him by waving his hand lightly.
Seong-hyeon Jo bowed his head slightly and greeted Team Leader Woo Kyung-soo.
“What, why are you so surprised?”
Seo Ye-na speaks with a smiley voice.
“Suddenly something cold touches my arm, which is surprising. How is your company?”
“I came out for a meeting because I was preparing for a concert.”
Saying that, Seo Ye-na held out the coffee she was holding to Jo Sung-hyun.
Jo Sung-hyun took the coffee with a bewildered expression.
“Are you giving it to me?”
“I bought it to give it to you. They say they are going to work every day to work on a male idol group album these days. Is it Heimdall?”
“yes. Right. I’ll drink well. thank you.”
Jo Seong-hyun gave a thank-you note while holding a cup of coffee.
Seo Ye-na waved her hand as if it was nothing.
She soon changed the subject of the conversation.
“But, does Chaeyoon say that she doesn’t understand why people curse at her?”
“uh… Yes, it is similar.”
“I was like that when I was younger. They all look the same.”
“okay? How was Jena when she was young?”
Jo Sung-hyun asked with his eyes shining.
If it was Seo Ye-na, wouldn’t she know Chae-yoon’s heart?
Because she has a lot of experience as an artist.
Jo Seong-hyeon is also making music, but Chae-yoon’s tendencies are a little different.
On the other hand, Seo Ye-na and Chae-yoon have many similarities, so I thought she could understand the child’s mind well.
“It’s too active. Aren’t you going to take the elevator?”
Seo Ye-na seemed a little embarrassed when Jo Sung-hyun asked with bright eyes, so she blinked once and pointed to the elevator that had already arrived.
Jo Seong-hyeon made a noise and climbed into the elevator.
“There will be some time left for the meeting. Is it okay if I go to the studio and chat for a bit?”
“sure.”
Jo Sung-hyun immediately responded to Seo Ye-na’s words.
“I’ll go to the conference room first.”
“Yeah. You are spending time with your boyfriend.”
At the words of team leader Woo Kyung-soo, Seo Ye-na nodded her head as if she knew.
Jo Seong-hyeon held back his laughter and glanced at Team Leader Woo Kyung-soo.
Team leader Woo Kyung-soo shook his head.
“You know that if you go out and say something like that, you’re in trouble?”
“Of course you know. don’t worry.”
Seo Ye-na says so and gets off the elevator.
As soon as she arrived at the studio, Seo Ye-na opened her mouth.
“It was confusing.”
“Yes?”
“When I was young. You made your debut at an early age. Of course, he was much bigger than Chae-yoon now.”
“ah… yes.”
“Am I really that wrong? Why do people hate it so much? That’s what I thought.”
Seo Ye-na spoke in a calm voice.
Jo Sung-hyun listened to her quietly.
And Seo Ye-na’s words that followed were a little out of line with expectations.
“I don’t know how it sounds when I say this, but honestly, I thought everyone would like it. I really don’t understand people who swear. How could you hate me?”
“… … .”
Not knowing how to react, Jo Sung-hyun just stood still.
Seo Ye-na looked at Jo Sung-hyun and smiled.
“There are many things in that ‘I’. The efforts I made, the efforts of team leader Woo, the efforts of the company… Because the result is ‘I’. But how do you hate it?”
“ah.”
Only then did Jo Seong-hyeon understand what Seo Ye-na was trying to say and nodded her head slightly.
It wasn’t just self-arrogance.
A lot of effort was added, so I had such a question.
“I don’t think I’ve ever suffered much because of something like that. Rather than swearing at them, I was more scared of our team leader Woo saying that you didn’t practice.”
Seo Ye-na shrugged her shoulders.
“After a while, I got it. After all, it’s not that they don’t hate me, it’s that they need someone to hate me. It’s just that it’s fair enough… I think Chae-yoon would be similar.”
“… Are you seriously hurt?”
“Anything? Again, I’ve never had a hard time. Chaeyoung would be the same. If you only like your dad, I don’t think he will care too much about other people’s evaluations.”
Seo Ye-na said in a light tone.
Seong-hyeon Cho once again remembered the eyes of Chae-yoon who looked at him last night.
“ah.”
he made a small noise.
The emotion in Chae-yoon’s eyes.
I fully understood that now.
In the eyes of the child, there was a deep ‘trust’ towards Jo Sung-hyun.
