“It will be fine if we go on like this. The schedule will be right.”
“Chaeyoon wanted to finish as much as possible before vacation, but it’s not easy.”
After hearing Park Joong-won’s words, Jo Sung-hyun exhaled and said.
Before Chae-yoon went on vacation, I wanted to finish everything she was doing and just play with Chae-yoon during vacation, but it didn’t go my way.
I couldn’t help it.
Because Jo Sung-hyun is not the only one doing the work.
No matter how hard Cho Seong-hyeon worked, if the other employees were slow in their work, there was no choice but to delay overall.
In fact, the same was true of other employees.
I want to finish my work quickly, but no matter how hard I try, I can’t help but get delayed at the partner company.
In that way, if there is a little delay, you have to work hard to increase the period.
“What should I do? Still, the perfection of the album is important.”
Park Joong-won took a deep breath and answered.
At his words, Jo Sung-hyun nodded his head.
It is of course important to play with Chaeyoon, but it was also important to do the job properly.
Even after Chaeyun is on vacation, she will have to do a little bit of the rest of the work, but that means she will only work for a few more days.
The level of completion is quite high compared to the level of work they do.
It was rather welcome from the point of view of Park Joong-won, and although it was disappointing for Seong-hyeon Cho, it wasn’t bad.
“Thank you for caring me. Producer.”
Choi Woo-jin speaks from the side.
Jo Sung-hyun blinked his eyes.
“Suddenly, what producer? I call him hyung as usual, and it’s strange that you call me producer.”
“Anyway, thank you bro. Thanks to you, I think our comeback will go well.”
“You should put your name on the chart.”
“My goal is to be in the top 20.”
“Wow, you really only need to be in the top 20. Then I shoot the beef.”
At Choi Woo-jin’s words, Park Joong-won shook his head slightly and said.
He was well aware of how difficult it is to be in the top 20 on the music charts, so that’s what I’m saying.
Seong-Hyeon Cho smiled.
If it’s really in the top 20, is beef the big one?
I’ll buy you everything you want to eat.
“I will expect.”
Jo Sung-hyun looked at Park Joong-won and said, and Park Jung-won turned his gaze to Jo Sung-hyun as if it was surprising.
“What, are you sure?”
“I was always confident in the song. If the ranking is determined by the perfection of the song, I say it because I think it will be in the top 20.”
Jo Sung-hyun shrugged his shoulders and answered.
It was something I could say because I thought it came out not as bad as I thought.
Park Joong-won made a strange expression at Seong-hyeon’s words.
“If you say that, you can expect quite a bit. okay. We need to work hard on marketing as well.”
Park Joong-won said so and left the conference room, tapping Seong-hyun’s shoulder.
Choi Woo-jin hurriedly follows Park Joong-won.
Jo Sung-hyeon also smiled lightly and followed them.
As soon as they leave the conference room, Hyuna Jang wakes up, waving her hand to Jo Seong-hyeon.
Seonghyung nodded his head slightly.

“Are you an overseas fan?”
Jo Sung-hyun asked, blinking his eyes at Jang Hyun-ah’s words.
The words I heard as soon as I left the department were quite surprising.
“yes. It seems to be coming in from abroad. I don’t know if you’ve noticed… Among the comments posted recently, there have been quite a few English comments.”
“I see a lot of English comments these days… ”
“Send a letter saying that you are cheering for me. I even received a photo of a handwritten letter I wrote through an Onstagram DM.”
“really?”
“I will show you. Wait.”
Jang Hyun-ah unfolds the tablet she always carries and shows a picture.
It was a letter written in English, but it was not difficult to read because Jo Sung-hyun wasn’t the one who couldn’t speak English.
It was a letter written by a fan living in Canada, and it was a letter to praise Chaeyoon from beginning to end.
The letter ended with the words that he was too perfect musically and that he would always support him.
“It’s a fan letter.”
“Yes. Since the pianist Sylvia Garcia posted about Chaeyoon and sunbaenim on SNS, the influx of overseas fans has definitely increased.”
“I’ll have to say thank you later.”
I often see Hanyul and Chaeyoon when they go to pick them up, but I haven’t seen Sylvia in a while.
I felt like I had to say thank you once if I had something to do later.
“Isn’t it amazing that you like Chaeyoon and sunbaenim even abroad?”
Sure, it’s interesting.
But at the same time, I thought it was normal.
As a musician, Jo Sung-hyun had faith.
Belief that music is the language of God.
Not being able to communicate is not an obstacle in music.
“Music has no borders.”
“… Right.”
At Jo Sung-hyun’s words, Jang Hyun-ah nodded her head.
Was the saying that music has no borders was quite powerful?
Jang Hyun-ah kept her mouth shut without saying anything for a while, and then stared at Jo Sung-hyun.
Jo Seong-hyeon, who met Hyun-ah Jang’s gaze, who was looking at him quietly, smiled softly.
At the same time, Hyuna Jang opens her mouth.
“Seniors.”
“Yes, Hyuna.”
“If music has no borders.”
“yes.”
“You mean that one day, sunbaenim and Chaeyoon’s music may be performed abroad too, right? Just like we played with the Seoul Orchestra this time. What… Like playing with the New York Philharmonic.”
Jang Hyun-ah said with eyes wet from a dream.
No, it wasn’t a dream.
Her eyes were full of seriousness.
Jang Hyun-ah really thinks it is possible.
What kind of answer can you give when you look into those eyes?
Cho Sung-hyun scratched his cheek.
“There is absolutely no chance. It’s Chae-yoon. He’s a kid who doesn’t know what’s going to happen.”
because she is her daughter
Because he always exceeds expectations.
maybe, maybe it’s possible
Seong-hyeon Cho answered that.
Jang Hyun-ah laughed at his answer.
“It is. It’s Chae-yoon.”
Jang Hyun-ah also laughed and muttered.
Perhaps the name ‘Cho Chae-yoon’ contains magic.
no matter how unrealistic.
It sounds like it could be done right now.

Gradually, vacation is drawing near.
Two days later became the day of the school vacation.
From this time on, the children could not go about their normal school life.
Everyone is caught up in a sense of excitement in the illusion of vacation.

Meanwhile, Chae-yoon was quite calm.
Of course, I really liked him on the inside, and I worked hard to plan what to do with Hyunseo and Youngjun during vacation.
Other than that, his outward behavior hasn’t changed.
As always, after school, he comes home and starts playing the piano.
While playing the piano, he asks Seong-hyeon Jo to play a movie.
Usually it was a movie from Darjeeling.
Jo Seong-hyeon was also often musically inspired by watching Darjeeling movies, so he was able to fully understand Chae-yoon, who asked to play a movie while playing.
“Chae Yoon-ah.”
“Yes?”
While watching the movie today, the child answered Jo Sung-hyun’s call half a beat late.
Jo Seong-hyeon stroked Chae-yoon’s hair.
It was very strange to see Chaeyoon always living the same life.
“Do you like music that much?”
“yes. That’s fun. Don’t you like Daddy?”
“Dad is fine. But I think Chaeyoon likes music more than her dad.”
At Jo Sung-hyun’s words, Chae-yoon’s eyes widen.
“Nope!”
The child was surprised and denied it.
When Chae-yoon suddenly denies in a loud voice, Jo Sung-hyun was surprised and looked at Chae-yoon.
“I like my dad the best.”
As if speaking the absolute truth, Chaeyoon’s voice was firm.
Jo Sung-hyun burst into laughter at the child’s words.
Because that’s not what he meant.
“No, it’s not that I like music better than my dad… It was said that Chaeyoon likes music more than Dad likes music.”
“ah… !”
It was only then that Chaeyun realized that she had not understood it well.
The child was a little embarrassed, so he dug into Seong-hyeon’s arms.
“My dad likes music a lot, too.”
“Can you feel it?”
“yes. In the past… You loved me a lot more than I do now.”
“Before? when?”
“When I was in kindergarten.”
chae yoon yi says:
At the child’s words, Jo Sung-hyun could understand when Chae-yoon was talking.
I’d say before coming back.
At that time, rather than Chaeyoon… It was a time when I was more focused on work.
It seems that Chaeyoon just liked music more.
‘No, it didn’t look like that, but it could be that it really was.’
Jo Seong-hyeon thought such a thing inwardly and smiled quietly.
“I’m sorry, Dad. then… .”
“Still, I like it.”
“yes?”
“I liked music too, but I couldn’t tell my dad. Now we make a song together… i love it. happy.”
Chaeyoung smiled and said.
Since he had a genuinely happy face, Jo Sung-hyun was relieved.
Now the child is happy.
Even though vacation is just around the corner, I am just living my normal life.
It was because my daily life was so happy.
With that thought in mind, Jo Sung-hyun was able to laugh.
At the same time, there was something I wanted to do with my child during vacation.
“Chae Yoon-ah.”
“yes.”
“Last time, you decided to go see Mom with Dad.”
“right.”
“Shall we go to see Mom and make a song together?”
“song?”
“yes. A song for mom. A song for us.”
When I say that to the child, Chae-yoon’s eyes twinkle.
It was obvious what the child liked.
“Even after going to the water park, I want to make a song together.”
“Then it will be an exciting song.”
“yes! We can go out on vacation and make a song together. It’s like writing a diary!”
As if the water bursts, Chae-yoon begins to say what she wants.
Where do you want to go on vacation, what do you want to eat… It’s quite diverse, so Jo Seong-hyeon was a little perplexed.
Apparently, the child was just living a peaceful life because his daily life was so happy.
It seems that there are many things I want to do while on vacation.
“great. Then, let’s make a song each time we go out to play. If so… How many songs will there be?”
“then… A new album?”
“A few dozen is enough to make one album. great. Let’s make our second album during vacation.”
Just like Chae-yoon made plans to play with her children during vacation.
Seonghyeon Jo and Yooni Chae had their own vacation plans.
Second album production.
That was Jo Sung-hyun and Chae-yoon’s vacation plans.
and.
As if in response to their plan, a miracle happened.
vacation day.
Jo Seong-hyeon received a phone call from Jang Hyun-ah from early in the morning.
-Seniors!
“Yes, Hyuna.”
-Check out the music chart!
“… now?”
-‘Strawberry’ is #92 on the music charts!
