Chapter 83
[The Miro Beat Saber Entry ㅋㅋ]
Who recommended this? Kawaii ㅋㅋ
– Did Miro play Beat Saber?
– Yeah, she bought a VR device.
– ㅋㅋ She still plays that, huh.
– She can’t last even 30 minutes~
– Planning to abandon it soon ㅋㅋ
[Wait, why is she so good?]
Is it really her first time?
She’s super good ㅋㅋ Is she gonna clear it on one try?
– Well, she did do well ㅇㅇ…
– Why is she so good? I honestly don’t get it.
– While struggling, she sliced through all the bells.
– But I can’t stand her showing off; it’s annoying.
[Miro: Actually, I’m a master of Bichun Swordsmanship]
“It’s a solo swordsmanship passed down from Japan, and I’ve been hiding it all this time.”
“I’m sorry for keeping it a secret from the viewers.”
What the heck, seriously ㅋㅋ
– For real, she did do well, but now she’s gone overboard with the bragging.
– Ugh, what a brat.
– Don’t praise her ㅇㅇ…
[I can’t stand the bragging, downvote ㅋㅋ]
Just play the game instead of wasting time bragging, you brat…
– Her stamina’s lacking, isn’t it? ㅋㅋ
– Even now, she’s holding her breath while talking ㅋㅋ
[Miro Down ㅋㅋ]
(Miro falls while playing Beat Saber)
Isn’t she still under 10 songs? ㅋㅋ She just falls over ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– ㅋㅋㅋ Is she trying out physical comedy?
– Why is she only doing this now?
– Miro should just play games, but she’s not doing that;
– Oh, it’s for the sophistication~
– Sophistication, my ass! She’s just letting her skills rot!
[Quit Beat Saber after 30 minutes ㅋㅋ]
Miro: My Bichun Swordsmanship… wheeze.. Haa… it’s a solo wheeze… lineage, so… I can’t show much.
That’s ugly, Miro ㅋㅋ
– Look how out of breath she is ㅋㅋ
– Seriously, she’s panting like she might die ㅋㅋ
– Bichun Swordsmanship is just a joke ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– 30 minutes was a lot, ㅇㅇ
[Miro <— The reason she’s a real virgin] If a 21-year-old going to university has that little stamina, That just means she’s been going between school and home ㅇㅇ Even if she just took a walk with her boyfriend, her stamina should be way better than that. - I'm a current Miro fan, and this is a fact ㅇㅇ - Unlike those ^Tompon^ fans obsessed with female idols, here it seems she really is a virgin ㅋㅋ - Where do you live, brat... - If Anna is a virgin at that age, that’s just weird, you idiot. - Tom fans are about to go into a frenzy ㅋㅋ - Is there a three-minute standby? ㅋㅋ - Miro, Loa, Haru, and Maho are all real virgins ㅇㅇ - But what about Maho’s age... - Loa is definitely one, ㅇㅇ I’ve seen it. - Haru sounds like a social butterfly just from the stories. [Miro: I’ll play Beat Saber again tomorrow] She’s gonna do this again? ㅋㅋ Looks like she’s gotten hooked. - If you do well, it’s actually fun ㅇㅇ - She’s saying she’ll build stamina while playing Beat Saber. - ㅋㅋ No way, are you that dedicated to gaming to think like that? - Jump rope is just not happening ㅋㅋ [Beat Saber’s highlights and lowlights;] She plays the game for 30 minutes and quits. Now her streaming time is just 30 minutes ㅋㅋ - For real, just 30 minutes? - Nah nah nah, if we count the café and all, it’s about 45 minutes. - Damn, isn't that the same as not even hitting an hour? - That’s just messed up... [Arrested the bastard who recommended Beat Saber ㅋㅋ] (Photo) Looking at the ID, isn’t it a gallery member? This bastard is why Miro only streams for 30 minutes ㅇㅇ So, should I go in now? ㅋㅋ - Let’s go! - I’m a current officer, so I’m blocking them ㅇㅇ ** “Gahh...” Opening my eyes, my arms and abdomen throb. Yeah… this is muscle soreness. The side effects of yesterday's Bichun Swordsmanship training are hitting me now. Though my body aches, I really want to just rest all day today, but unfortunately, I have a planned schedule ahead. With difficulty, I rose from the bed and headed straight to the bathroom. Since the appointment time is a bit early, I have to prepare and leave right away. After enduring the muscle pain and finishing all my preparations, I stepped outside. Feeling the pleasantly cool autumn morning air and enjoying the autumn leaves, I felt a sense of achievement for heading out early. Having just missed rush hour, I boarded the almost empty subway and headed towards the now familiar composer’s workshop. In less than an hour, I arrived in front of the workshop. The first time I came here, I was in a short-sleeved shirt, and now I’m in a coat. Time really flies, doesn’t it? As time passed, my new song has taken shape. The recording part is nearing its end… I wonder if it’ll be released soon? With such thoughts, I input the door lock code and entered the workshop. Passing through the entrance, unchanged from the first time, I could see the composer sitting alone in the lobby. What brings him out today? He’s someone who usually doesn’t even greet me when I arrive, despite being familiar. “Composer.” “Oh, Soo-hyun, you’re here.” “Why are you out here?” I sat down at the table opposite the lobby. But there were two notebooks and pens on the table. Is one of them mine? But someone already wrote a note in it. “Ah, that’s because my friend is visiting again today.” As I looked at the notebook meaningfully, the composer pointed to one side and said that. “Who…?” Who came again? Following the composer’s gaze, a familiar-looking man walked out from the restroom, walking towards me. “Oh, Moon Chang-sik?” “Hey, aren’t you Soo-hyun?” Who came, I wondered, only to find the famous actor, Moon Chang-sik. Seeing him again, it really feels fresh. At that time, I just thought of him as a handsome celebrity, but now, it feels like I’m seeing a top star. “Did the signature I gave you get passed along well?” “The signature? Oh, right.” Come to think of it, I need to give signatures to the other members too, but I forgot to do that during the last dance lesson. “Oh, right? You shared them well?” “Uh… Yeah, my parents liked it.” Especially, Manager Kim was so pleased he even bragged about it to relatives. “Well… that’s a relief. But that’s my spot over there.” “Oh.” So that’s why the notebook was in front of me; it was Moon Chang-sik’s spot? I slid over a bit and made space. “By the way, it’s been a while. Did you have a good Chuseok?” “Chuseok? Oh, yeah, it was good. By the way, I saw you on the drama.” Since we met, I told him about watching the drama with Mrs. Jang in the living room, and he visibly seemed surprised. Is it really that surprising? “Finally, you saw the work I appeared in. You’re talking about the new broadcast, right?” “Oh, yes, that’s right.” “How was it? Was it fun?” Fun… It was definitely entertaining. “I kind of watched the first episode and found it interesting.” “You kind of…? You said you just watched part of it? You should watch it properly.” Oh, saying I just watched part seems to scratch at his pride? After all, he put in a lot of effort; it’d bug him to hear that. “I just happened to be with my mom and saw it on TV… I’ll watch it properly when I find time later.” “Yes, it’s a piece I personally enjoyed, so please make sure to watch it.” The passion in his eyes is almost intimidating. This is what a tier-one actor must be like. “Yeah, I’ll definitely check it out.” If I don’t have time, I might not watch it, but at least I said I would. But now that I think about it, why is Moon Chang-sik in the composer’s workshop? Didn’t he finish the reference for the role last time? “By the way, why are you here today? Are you here for another reference thing?” “Well, that too, but while acting, questions popped into my head, so I came to get help from the composer.” “Oh, so this is your second time coming here for the project, right?” “Yeah, that’s right.” So, he’s come here twice, and both times coincide with my recording schedule? That raises a few eyebrows. When I glanced at the composer with such suspicions, he awkwardly chuckled. “Actually, you’re the only one I’ve invited to work here lately. You don’t seem like someone who’d get stressed over work.” “I don’t get stressed, but… Isn’t there a lack of projects?” No one else is coming to record here, but just me? The renowned composer, Kang Woo-hyeon? “Don’t tell me… Is it because of me that you’re brushing off other opportunities? You don’t have to do that.” No matter how crucial our new song is, isn’t it odd that there’s no work during this time when autumn songs are being released? “That’s nonsense! Nowadays, who comes to record? It’s all done by sending files; among the people I work with, you’re the only one without a personal recording studio.” …Well, that makes sense. Speaking of which, how can I not have a personal recording studio when my microphone costs a fortune and installing a soundproof booth isn’t cheap? Can’t that be considered a recording studio? “Don’t tell me you’re saying the microphone you use at home is for recording?” …Does he know I’m a broadcaster? The composer’s sharp criticism hit hard. “So, when are you planning to release the new song? It’s almost finished, right?” “Don’t change the subject; I don’t know exactly when I’ll drop the song. There are a lot of marketing methods to consider these days.” “Oh…” Marketing, it’s definitely important. Not just important, but the biggest factor determining success. From YouTube Shorts to Instagram reels, TikTok, it’s all about viral marketing; the songs that successfully spread that way are countless. “Honestly, if I said I had no greed regarding the outcome, that would be a lie. Watching you record, I’ve started to have this desire, hoping more and more people would hear this.” It makes sense… After putting in so much effort, it’s natural to want to get noticed. If it were me, I’d want the same. No, I already wish for this song to do well, considering the recording process I’ve gone through. My effort, of course, but also from witnessing the composer’s passion and dedication firsthand. “Well, let’s think about that after we finish. Now, shall we get into the recording?” “Sure! My vocal condition is excellent today.” Standing up like that, we headed to the recording studio. Now, I could say this is really the last recording session. The time has come to put a period on this long, lengthy journey.
