All-Round Genius Who Eats Talent - All-Round Genius Who Eats Talent chapter 150

150. Road trip (4)

– Wow. Look at the picture level. It is said that the picture came to the wedding and drew it. what level

– Is not it. If you say it’s usually an hour for a ceremony, it’s said that it was painted within that time, but the quality.

– Really well drawn. both the groom and the bride. Besides, the guests are characters from the world behind the scenes! That’s crazy!

– under. want to have! How lucky do you really have to be to win an event like that?

The interest in Jaeik’s paintings was as great as that.

It’s a painting I drew in a short amount of time, but it’s worth owning, and at the same time, it’s really cool.

Moreover, it is a picture drawn by the original author. entered the signature. As a behind-the-scenes fan, it was a gift that was more precious than any other gift.

I said so in my post too.

However, someone focused on the piano that Jaeik played rather than the situation or the painting.

– Wait, but you don’t care about the song you played at the anthem?

– So. It’s the first piano piece you’ve ever heard. Did you compose it yourself?

– uh? really. I just came to hear what is it? It’s real.

– What is your piano playing skill? I think it’s crazy. I think it’s better than any piano playing I’ve ever heard.

– Over with only cell phone video.

– It’s the first song I’ve ever heard. That means I composed it. no way?

– What?

– Could this be a song for a musical?

– uh?

– uh?!

People started to get excited about someone’s guessing answer. To be precise, rather than being certain that that is the correct answer, I think that is the most likely.

– Come to think of it, where are you going in Hollywood?

– In the direction you are going now.

– When you put together social media and people’s photo book signing events. I’m pretty sure it’s on the east side. Hollywood, Las Vegas direction. The latest in-byeol is the Grand Canyon.

– New York? Broadway?

– Where else would it be if it was a musical? The musical is Broadway.

People were curious. Why is Jaeik suddenly taking a road trip? Why are you doing an event?

And where is your final destination and what are you going to do? And what will happen on the way.

– Shall we try tracking? Gather and collect SNS news.

– Isn’t that stalking?

– Stalking. I just want to follow in your footsteps. where do you hear What are you doing? drawing a timeline. Are you bored?

– Oh, are you okay? Shall we try it?

whatever the internet Whatever the reaction, Jaeik’s road trip continued.

Jaeik, Kangseok, and Youngjin took turns driving, but since it was a schedule that went back thanks to events or schedules, the distance was over 7,000km, and this distance was hardly a distance to drive alone.

I stopped by the Grand Canyon and felt the majesty of the natural scenery while staying one night. Unlike Joshua Tree National Park. A view worthy of being designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Because I was really in awe.

Getting out of the forest of buildings and sleeping overnight with the natural scenery as a friend and repeating driving was quite tiring, but at the same time it was quite energizing.

Utah at the Grand Canyon. Utah to Denver. Are you now only about 1/3 of your destination?

(I’m such a fan!)

(thank you.)

At the autograph session held in Denver, Jaeik signed an autograph in front of the book with a broad smile at the fans who couldn’t hide their excitement at seeing him.

It was already the second signing event since the road trip started. Once in Las Vegas and once in Denver. Of course, there were many schedules left in the future.

The important thing was that a lot of people flocked to both signings as if they had been waiting for this opportunity.

‘Come to think of it, I didn’t even have a signing event when I released my first book.’

Because it was a very busy and hectic time.

(Ooh! Is that Craig MacLaine?)

When the next fan came, Jaeik stood up and hugged the fan lightly.

(Yes! You’ll recognize it right away. I’m a huge fan.)

Holding a book in one hand and even a cool cosplay.

Jaeik signed autographs and took pictures with him, but he waved at the fan for a long time.

what a wonderful thing I hadn’t realized it until now, but it must have been a really big deal.

It means that someone likes and enjoys my work to the point of cosplaying.

The same goes for weddings and signing events.

(Hi! I’m such a fan!)

(Really? Hey. Thank you for liking it.)

(How can I not like it! Each piece is a state of art.)

(Thank you so much. I need to work harder.)

During a short break, Kang Seok approached Jaeik as he drank water, checked the camera, and said casually as if he was in a good mood.

“You look good these days?”

“My face?”

At those words, Jaeik scratched his cheek slightly. Because I’m sure it felt good.

“Uh, from that Joshua Tree to Las Vegas and all the way here, we always laugh. I don’t laugh very often after coming to the US, but I’m serious all the time.”

“Did I?”

I thought I laughed often in my own way, but I guess that wasn’t the case.

“The mouth is smiling, but the eyes are not smiling. I’m not going to see you for a day or two.”

I’m just saying it now, but while I was still working in the US, I felt a little rushed.

It’s like being chased somewhere. Even though it was only Kang-seok’s guess because he couldn’t know what Jae-ik was thinking.

“Oh, did you?”

“Take some time off. I see now. Do you go on a trip after finishing your work? Aren’t your creative desires just springing up?”

Seeing the way he ended his speech with a joke, Jaeik smiled and nodded his head.

Even if it wasn’t, it was a word that I was attracted to honestly. Because I was thinking like that myself.

“I’ll have to think about it. Things like traveling around the world, not America.”

“good. When I go out like that, I always bring a camera. I need to take a picture of something.”

“What are you talking about?”

With his finger, Jaeik pointed at Kangseok, the camera, and all the staff.

“We are all going together.”

“Uh. A very difficult road will open. A world tour.”

Kang Seok giggled and stepped out of the camera angle.

There was a sign that the afternoon schedule would start soon.

The place where the famous world’s largest sculpture, which often appears in movies, is located early the next day after the schedule in Denver is over.

We headed to Mount Rushmore National Monument.

George Washington, the first president of the United States and symbol of the founding of the country; Thomas Jefferson, the third president and symbol of growth who wrote the Declaration of Independence; Even Abraham Lincoln, who symbolizes preservation.

“Yeah. I’ve seen it here and there. Movie National Treasure. He came out of there.”

“I heard it took 14 years to make it all?”

“It deserves that much.”

It’s really worth it because the Mount Rushmore sculpture is really bigger than I thought.

“Awesome.”

It was a very pure feeling. It was awesome. Seeing that huge face statue that took 14 years.

Jaeik sat there blankly, took out his tablet, and edited some of the sheet music again.

“It came out again. working mode.”

“It really doesn’t matter the time and place. Do you have to do that to become a real artist?”

Running this long distance, Jaeik was able to develop quite a lot of the songs he made on the first day.

Even while driving, at the moment of watching the sunset in the night sky full of stars, and even at the moment of seeing this expansive view of Rushmore, the inspiration kept popping up in Jaeik’s head again and again.

The many talents he had learned were intertwined with each other, and he was continuously pouring something into Jae-ik’s head.

I couldn’t come up with anything that would describe this situation.

It’s like experiencing the mystery of the universe in the middle of it.

That night. After unpacking in a huge warehouse-like accommodation booked as a shared accommodation with Chicago just around the corner, the group sat around and shared food and chatted as usual.

Just like the first day of your journey. It’s kind of like a dinner that has become a habit.

“So, are you done working on the song?”

“Almost all of the songs I wrote personally? Still a little more musical song? Because we have to make a total of two songs.”

“Really, what. It’s not just composing.”

Of course, as Kang Seok said, he was producing many results not only in composing but also in various creative works.

“one by one. I have to make them all.”

things I still want to do. And there was a lot of work left to do.

What fun is this?

“But you know what? Is your trip being a big issue on social media?”

“Why all of a sudden? Is there anything wrong? I’m just traveling by car.”

“It’s just a trip. I went to weddings, signed autographs, traveled, and made music.”

As Na Young-jin said, from the day of the wedding, Jae-ik’s Youtube channel was releasing one or two shorts of less than a minute.

A slightly higher quality video of Jaeik’s congratulatory song, or suddenly sitting down on a chair at a destination, taking out a tablet and creating something. Everything from playing the guitar and singing.

The effect was great and the interest was great.

“I heard on the Internet that it’s a catch me if you can game.”

“What is that.”

Suddenly the title of the movie.

“I am following in your footsteps. I have to admit it honestly. Jaeik, you are becoming an icon in this industry.”

At Na Young-jin’s words, Kang-seok nodded. Because that’s what it said.

I don’t know if Jaeik feels it or not, but he was an icon in the content industry.

“People pay attention to every single thing you do and go wild.”

“Can you not know? I do internet too. but so what does anything change If you are conscious of it, you will only care more.”

It was literally a matter of adaptation. But to be honest, rather than worrying about the fact that he is an icon in the industry, he prefers to create creative works and enjoy them with his fans.

“But honestly, just do what you want to do. Then you will know everything. What if you don’t abuse it?”

“Well, when was it not like that?”

I was going to keep doing that. continue in the future. just the way i like it

Since it’s already a social responsibility, doesn’t it make your head hurt too much to think about that? as long as it doesn’t break the law.

Just do what you’re interested in and help out.

“ruler! Everyone has a busy schedule tomorrow, so let’s get it early! I need to drive more than 10 hours to get to Chicago.”

There was so much to do in Chicago. Of course, since it’s a big city, there were autograph sessions, but I had to visit somewhere like a wedding.

“Before going to bed, everyone should be careful about the places we are going to visit in case we don’t know. And be sure to check what not to do.”

I’ll probably drive all day tomorrow, and when I get to Chicago in the evening, I’ll go to sleep right away, and the next day.

“Especially Jaeik and you too.”

“Of course. It’s something I chose.”

It was something to be done, but I thought it would not be too much to emphasize it several times as it was an important matter.

It means meeting young sick fans. It was a very careful thing. At the same time, it was very important.
