I Decided To Become a Perfect Girl - I Decided To Become a Perfect Girl chapter 174
174 – Superstar High School Girl (2)
On the way home from work in the evening, the subway is crowded.
Office workers riding public transportation used to kill boring time in their own way.
Like listening to music.
Like watching people.
Thinking alone?
Probably the most popular method.
‘Is there nothing to see?’
It would be looking at your cell phone.
And this male office worker was browsing YouTube.
Instead of going into the community and looking for the day’s issues that were bothering him, he just wanted to receive healing by watching a simple video.
So, after looking through the algorithm and finding nothing to watch, I went to YouTube’s trending videos, the so-called Ingeubdong.
Among them, an image caught his eye.

‘Vlog?’
It seemed like he was lucky enough to have been selected by an algorithm.
Often, channels with less than 100,000 subscribers would also appear in Ingeup-dong.
Still, the man thought that such videos were generally attractive.
‘Perhaps the charm of this video is healing.’
Because the fresh daily life of teenagers tends to heal itself.
This is especially true if it is a classical piano.
In other words, it was the type of video he was looking for.
‘I have to see it.’
The man clicked on the video, and as expected, it started with a cute looking BGM and a cute high school girl at the school gate.
[Hyuna: Today is Friday, major day. There’s no one around, right? Yes, I was just a little late.]
As with other VLOGs, a high school girl called Hyuna held her phone and chattered about her day’s schedule.
[Hyuna: Anyway, today is major evaluation time, so I’m planning to play the Prelude and Etude. Oh, and there is also an accompaniment test today…]
And the screen went straight to the classroom.
[Hyuna: Anyway, I will show you all of today’s major classes!]
<1St period sight-singing time>
Although subtitles were appearing on the screen explaining what the sight reading time was.
“Huh?”
The office worker raised his head and looked straight ahead, not at the cell phone.
There was an advertisement for the lens on the front screen door.
‘That’s right?’
The same face no matter who looks at it.
There can’t be two kids who look like this in the first place.
* * *
The main viewership of the vlog was still the majority of the Saven fandom, but at some point it was definitely exposed to the general public.
And most of the scenes that remained in the minds of viewers who watched the video were similar and their feelings were also similar.
The target of those scenes was sadly but naturally Dohee rather than Hyuna.
It was roughly like this.
First of all, Dohee was absorbed in the first period sight-singing class.

─Solara♪
Nuclear Honor Goddess Advent ㄷㄷ
-The dog is really pretty.
-How cute is it that your face turns red when you look at it? Really hahahaha.
└Shame hahahaha cute dog
– Idols that make people say that they are so pretty and like dolls
-I’m surprised that I’m better at singing now than I thought.
└Watching this short? Lol
└ㄹㅇ What makes me like him is that he has a basic mindset that he needs to practice vocals a lot and improve… Even though I don’t know how to sing, I can see that my singing skills are improving, which is amazing and pretty.
└It seems like American dramas are also growing.
Secondly, how Dohee spends her time off.

─[Again, solve the mock exam…? Actually, there is nothing else to do.]
Pretend to sleep or study.
-Where does the author live?
-f*ck, is Lee Do-hee hot?
└They say there’s nothing to do if you don’t study~
└ㄹㅇ Hack Insa is cosplaying Assa again
└Don’t take it away…
-But what kind of mock test does Lee Do-hee solve for an idol? She’s in the third grade, too? Isn’t he 17?
└Dohee is really good at studying. She ranked first in the entire school from elementary school to middle school.
└ㄹㅇ? I didn’t know. Aren’t the parents doing too much good?
└ㅁㄹ But these are not idol specifications.
└Dohee Just looking at Saven’s live or vlogs, he said that he always studies continuously and that it’s his routine.
Thirdly, listening classes at Ye High School.
[Saven Lee Do-hee, who listens to the performance and immediately translates it into sheet music.Mp4]
(Vlog video)
─[Teacher! This is the first word… The first five words… Hyun-ya, that’s sol, pa, le, do, la… What, it even goes into la? I’m going crazy.]
An ear class is a class in which the teacher matches the pitch and beat of the music and immediately transfers it to sheet music.
Added) This is not an absolute pitch test, there is a separate absolute pitch test in the preview.
(Listen and speak from one note to six chords that Dohee said on broadcast.Mp4)
This is the absolute pitch test
As for the level of difficulty, listening classes are said to be a bit more difficult due to the tempo.
-Lee Do-hee is just good at music.
-You have to do this to receive the grand prize for piano.
-But acquiring sheet music to this extent is possible for anyone who graduated from a top music school in Korea who plays the violin or composes music. It’s because they are spoiled in classical music because they say pure music.
└ㄹㅇ Damn you bastards
└ㅇㅈ Eokpa ㅈㄴ It’s not for nothing that there are a lot of Lee Do-hee’s songs just because the deep sea makes a song.
└No matter what you do, you idiots will rationalize it lol
└In the first place, it’s true that a 17-year-old idol is compared to a top music school, but it’s so damn hahahaha.
-Information) When a typical girl group meme is posted, it goes viral and they are recruited by their agency. When it comes to backwards-oriented memes, the key point here is to drool with one mind.
└ㄹㅇㅋ Right now, Lee Do-hee is also being heavily criticized, blah blah, and those bastards who are s*xually harassing me say it’s okay if a post about backwards behavior is posted, hahahaha.
Of course, as the post became a hot topic, people started fighting in the comments, so it wasn’t all positive reactions, but it was sure to become a hot topic.
And the fourth and final scene that became a hot topic was the implied conversation between Dohee and Hyuna during the two piano ensemble.
[Is Dohee going to the piano competition?]
(Vlog video)
─[After the 3rd and 4th periods of two-piano practice, we each go to the accompaniment test and lesson. Now everyone has to prepare for the contest…]
This was probably the hottest issue among fans.
* * *
What I felt after entering and attending an arts high school was that it had many unexpected advantages.
One of the many advantages was this.
During other people’s classes, I can rent a piano room for one person under the pretext of practicing for my major and have some time to myself and relax.
Of course, this was impossible in a general high school.
Instead of taking major classes related to piano, I would have had to study courses that were unnecessary to me.
─Dtan Ddan Dtan♬
Of course, I wasn’t fooling around.
I was practicing the piano diligently as usual.
ㅡ♪♭
It’s just that I don’t play like I wanted to.
I was thinking about random things and ended up pressing the wrong key.
“Whoa…”
Suddenly, I remembered the time when I had a private meeting with team leader Sohyeon before entering arts high school.
That day, the team leader explained the reason why he applied to the piano department rather than the practical music department.
The biggest reason was consideration for myself.
Even during the trainee period and during Saven activities.
Because he knew that I was more attached to the piano than I showed on the outside, to the point where I practiced and repeated it consistently.
And another reason.
─Dohee, do you want to participate in the piano competition again?
The idea was to prepare for the piano competition again.
In the sense of experiencing again the things that had to be postponed for a while while preparing for becoming an idol.
Of course, it was a question of the doctor, not a coercion.
Rather, if the team leader had strictly taken the company’s position, he would have blocked me even if I participated in the contest.
The image you have built through your award-winning career can be destroyed by just one failure to receive an award.
Even since I have won the overall grand prize so far, the standard was also very high.
In other words, the risk is greater than the benefit you will gain by going out.
But the team leader just asked.
─Oh, really? Can I leave? Then I’ll go out. I was curious about the high school class, so I really wanted to go out there sometime.
Of course I answered yes.
Because I was full of confidence in myself.
“Whoa… Oh, it beeped again.”
But now, I have doubts about my performance throughout practice.
So me.
Now I am feeling the pressure.

Is it because of the accompaniment test I just took?
Actually, the accompaniment test is.
Even though it was a test, it didn’t mean much.
Rather, it was reasonable to view it as just an interim inspection.
Because the real exam and practical exam were taken at the end of the semester.
The main purpose was to practice the designated songs, demonstrate them, and get advice from the teacher before the test in the name of an exam.
The practical song assigned by the school is:
Brahms’ Sonata No. 3, 1St movement.
I thought about my thoughts and prepared the song.
Brahms, a composer who valued formal beauty even though he was a Romantic composer.
Even in the last Sonatime released by Brahms, it is Brahms’ Opus No. 5, A very early work from his youth.
Although it contains such youthful spirit, it is also Brahms’s own serious and heavy music.
Tempo Sign: Allegro maestoso.
This combination composition and the corresponding background are revealed from the tempo sign.
Allegro has a slightly uplifting and joyful feeling.
Maestoso means dignified and majestic.
Above all, the rhythm of the two dotted 8th notes + dotted 32nd notes at the beginning.
I thought the intention was to push the sound a little further forward.
In the first place, Brahms was a person who composed music considering the diverse sounds and textures of an orchestra.
I added my own interpretations to take all of those feelings into consideration.
And as always, he played cleanly without any keystrokes.
But there was only one story I received from the teacher.
─Dohee has prepared a lot. But it’s a little aggressive. Shall we try to formalize it first?
Advice that runs counter to expectations.
As someone who was confident in playing the piano, this was the first negative story I had ever heard.
“Ugh…”
I sighed and was about to put my hand on the keyboard again.
ㅡKnock knock
The door to the single piano room opened with a knock.
“Dohee~ It’s your turn, come down.”
The one who stuck out her face was Hyuna.
“Ah, yes. Thank you.”
Next is the accompaniment test.
It was time for one-on-one private lessons in preparation for this competition.
I let out another sigh without realizing it and left the room.
