If You Raise Three Idols Well, They Will Confess Their Love - Chapter 164
164 – Kiss
Episode 164
Autumn continued with non-stop training.
Paying attention to minimal hydration and maintaining her condition, she sang, tuned, and sang again as if she would sharpen herself with a knife until Lena Shin’s next busking performance of her.
〈I will chase the stars in the sky until I lose my breath.〉
In the rented studio, the song was constantly heard.
It was definitely sweet. The technique was also amazing. What was more surprising was that it was gradually increasing.
Is Autumn’s concentration increasing day by day, or is she truly erasing everything else than the song from her mind? Autumn’s song has been refined to be more pure and sophisticated.
I also thought that maybe, if Ga Eul was like this, she could really aim for victory in a match against Lena Shin.
“Cough… , Haha.”
“The neck is expendable. Why don’t you practice while resting a little more?”
“It’s okay… , Are you okay. I’ll practice just a little bit more. “I feel like this is not enough.”
“…”
But I didn’t see it as a positive thing.
“…”
This may be an idea that a manager should not think about.
Rather than encouraging artists, I think this after seeing them step up and practice even though it is risky.
But still, I didn’t want to just watch.
“Team leader Cheon Jong-hoon, this is me.”
Because I wanted to be not only Gaeul’s manager but also her protector.
-What’s going on?
“There is something I would like your help with.”
***
After finishing the general preparation, I went back to the studio where Gaeul was practicing.
And I spoke to her in that little gap where she was rehydrating after finishing one of her songs.
“Gaeul, can I ask you a favor?”
“Please?”
I took out the sheet music I had prepared and handed it to Gaeul.
“This is a song I prepared. Would you like to sing it?”
“Team Leader Seon prepared it? Is this really your own song?”
“That’s right. “It’s not a self-composed song, but it’s a song with help from two people.”
I, who was learning professional mixing from Cheon Jong-hoon, objectively thought that I lacked the skills and knowledge to create all the perfect songs. Therefore, in order to supplement it, I asked Cheon Jong-hun for help in production.
Since I was in a position to ask for a favor, I gave him credit for my skills with the intention of flattering him, but Cheon Jong-hoon pretended not to be happy and actively helped me with my production.
… It’s hard to say this, but this nobleman also had the personality of a pushover.
Meanwhile, James O, who found out that a song was being produced, intruded into the production process by saying, ‘Why do you leave your co-worker and partner alone to do such important work with an outsider?’ Thanks to this, although he didn’t mean to, he joined the current top producer and 10. Years later, I was able to create a song with the luxurious composition of the best producer.
“What do you think?”
Ga Eul, who was staring blankly at the sheet music I handed her, spoke with her voice shaking slightly.
“… Are you asking me to call you this right now?”
“I just wanted to call you lightly…”
“…”
“Why not?”
In fact, it would be a very embarrassing request for Gaeul.
Strictly speaking, it would not be very pleasant to have to sing a song that was not announced in advance and that only has sheet music and accompaniment without even a guide recording.
If they give you time to prepare, they add the condition that it has to be done right now, so you might want to refuse.
Still, I believed in Gaeul’s talent. It also made me think that the relationship I had built so far would be acceptable to a request of this magnitude.
… We’re still close, Gaeul.
Still, I was anxious about her rejection, so when I pretended to be pitiful and looked at Ga Eul earnestly, she blushed noticeably and spoke softly.
“… “If Taeyang oppa does that, I can’t refuse.”
“Haha, maybe that was a little cruel?”
Then Ga Eul smiled slightly and said.
“I will. Instead, just give me a moment. “Be familiar with the score.”
“Thank you. “For participating in this sudden request”
“… In fact, I am more grateful. Always.”
He was such a good kid.
“I’ll be in charge of the accommodation. “Don’t worry about the guitar part, just think about the vocals this time.”
“Yes.”
Ga Eul said as I roughly finished tuning the electric piano in the studio.
“I just figured it out.”
“It’s faster than expected. “Then, shall we call you right away?”
“… “I will do my best not to be embarrassed by Taeyang’s song.”
It’s the best…
It’s best. But that’s not what I want now. Autumn.
However, it was considered unfashionable to express this in words, so I started moving the keys instead of speaking.
Because this method was more suitable for the conversation between us now.
And Autumn began to carefully sing along with my accommodation.

“How was it?”
After finishing the song and hesitating as if gathering her thoughts, Ga Eul looked at me as if she were fascinated and said.
“The song is… , Yes, it was good.”
“Hmm… , Thank you for your words, but I wanted to ask how you are feeling right now rather than your thoughts on the song.”
“… How do you feel?”
I brought up with her what she had been thinking about recently.
“Did you enjoy it?”
“…”
Ga Eul, who was hesitant to speak as she opened and closed her mouth, slowly opened her mouth.
“… Is that important? “Isn’t what’s important now is which song to sing and how to win in the contest?”
“No, that’s the important thing.”
“Just one person’s feelings?”
“It’s not just one person. “It is the emotion of a singer who conveys emotions to countless people.”
But that wasn’t the only reason.
“And I’m a fan of Yu Ga-eul, who sings happily. “It’s not like singing with a sense of responsibility or with a purpose.”
“…”
“I want you to smile when you sing.”
Even in tears, anger, or thoughtlessness, songs bloom.
However, I liked the vocals of artist Yoo Ga-eul the most, as she purely loves the song more than the song that blooms from such emotions, and her love and joy she seemed to see into her whole body her her her.
That was the reason why I did this by selling my feet to Cheon Jong-hoon and James Oh.
I thought this was a way to share the responsibility that was holding her up and preventing her from enjoying it.
“What is the title of this song?”
“The title of the song is ‘the duty of singing.’”
“The duty of singing…”
“How about using this song in your next fight with Lena Shin?”
Autumn, who was pondering in heavy silence, spoke.
“There are conditions.”
“Conditions?”
What? Could it be because you were worried that the finished product might be lacking?
Well, there are still some aspects that seem to be lacking, so it’s worth considering it that way.
Don’t worry, autumn. I will not sleep and finish the work to a satisfactory level.
“You can rest assured about the quality of completion. Of course, this is a tentatively recorded version and the proper mixing hasn’t started. A level of perfection that you can be satisfied with before the recording of Music Road… “
“That… , It’s not like that.”
It wasn’t.
“You said you wanted me to sing and have fun, right?”
“Yes.”
Ga Eul spoke with her characteristic bright smile for the first time in a long time.
“Then, please come on stage with me on the recording day.”
… Me?
***
Sun Taeyang, who continued mixing ‘the duty of singing’ until late at dawn when the sun was rising, fell asleep just as he was pressing the keyboard on his laptop.
From noble mtl dot come
And Ga Eul, who was trying to say hello briefly before starting morning training, saw him like that.
Ga Eul, who hesitated slightly, walked slowly and quietly to the desk where he was.
Next to Taeyang, Ga Eul found a notebook that looked like Taeyang had written down his ideas. Ga Eul, who was trying to avoid her eyes because she thought it was his her private life her her her, could not resist a strong impulse and read what was written.
[The vocals for Yoo Ga-eul have already been completed. Objectively, it is not enough to compare with existing top singers.]
[So now all she needs to soar is her perfect song.]
[I must not compromise on this. One fruit or flaw in the song will fade the sparkle of the jewel called Yugaeul. Just as the slightest flaw lowers the grade of a gem.]
[Don’t be satisfied with feelings like 98% or 99%. If I volunteer to stand next to that child, all I have to do is give 100% of my work.]
[So as not to fall short for that kind child.]
[So that that warm child can sing and smile.]
“…”
Ga Eul read the contents slowly and saw Seon Taeyang’s face her falling asleep from exhaustion.
And I asked myself.
‘Is it possible not to love someone like that?’
Quietly, Ga Eul gently touched his cheek with her right hand as he woke up.
‘It would be impossible.’
I smoothed out my rough chin because I hadn’t shaved yet.
‘Whether Taeyang is middle-aged or old, no matter what he looks like, no matter what time or moment.’
He touched his red lips her.
‘I would have loved.’
And she secretly kissed Taeyang’s cheek
