If You Raise Three Idols Well, They Will Confess Their Love

84 – I Think I Might Be Jealous

Episode 84

Autumn and my eyes met.

We could tell what each other wanted just by making eye contact.

I moved my fingers faster and raised the tempo of the song.

Autumn also increased the speed by playing the combat riff on the acoustic guitar more actively.

In such a heightened atmosphere of the song, she opened her mouth.

The voice of autumn echoed throughout the square and was engraved like a slice.

And the old woman who was handing out leaflets, the middle school student who was trying to cross the crosswalk, the office worker who was hailing a taxi, and the taxi driver who was waiting to receive him as a customer all stopped moving for a moment .

The crowded and noisy square hid its own sound as if expressing reverence for the voice of autumn.

Overbearing, maddening, and emotional.

The voice of one person changed the color of the world.

You’ve increased even more, Gaeul. Than when I first busked.

What was even more surprising was that it was a talent that was still developing.

If you look at the status window, the current ability is A-.

I couldn’t imagine how far it would go.

It was truly a crazy talent.

Eventually, the song ended and people started cheering and applauding.

“Thank you! It was the fall of Two Bear Entertainment.”

After finishing the promotion with a sweet smile at the audience, Ga Eul spoke with great excitement, like a playful child who had just come off a roller coaster.

“Oppa Taeyang! The accommodation was so cool!”

“Haha, I really appreciate your words, but honestly, I’m sorry that the standard was lower than the last street performance.”

“Hmm…, Wasn’t Taeyang oppa so amazing back then? At that time, I thought I might be using the world’s best pianist as my accompanist. “I also wondered why Taeyang didn’t debut and become a manager.”

It was all compensation. Autumn.

“Anyway, it was still cool enough! I really like Taeyang oppa’s sound!”

Faced with Ga Eul’s favorable response, I was heartbroken.

Fortunately, it seems that the accommodation wasn’t that bad.

I was very nervous because it was my first time busking without a ‘jukebox at my fingertips.’

Of course, now that there is no compensation, I won’t be able to show off as a perfect accommodation like I did back then.

For this moment, I have been practicing piano whenever I have free time recently, but of course it would have been insufficient compared to the moment when I borrowed the power of compensation.

Still, after playing Memories of Fallen Leaves and the Sea that day, I should say something opened my heart or I should say I gained enlightenment, but in any case, playing the piano became easier and I didn’t look too bad.

“Still, should we hire a professional accompanist next time?”

“That can never be done.” “My accompanist, at least on the piano, has to be Taeyang oppa.”

“No, you and I both have work to do, so we can’t just do that.”

“… “Why not?”

Autumn looked at me with a very disappointed face, like a downcast puppy whose walk was canceled.

Ah, I feel weak.

“… I can’t give a definite answer, but I’ll try my best. Because I also like performing together.”

“Hehe, thank you so much! Taeyang oppa!”

Yes, if you smile, that’s it. I’ll try some more practice.

To be honest, right now, Ga Eul is embarrassed to play music next to you. The level difference is too big, right?

At least I want to become a person who is not ashamed.

Ga Eul looked at me and spoke casually as if she remembered something she had forgotten.

“Oh, you’re not allowed to accompany other vocalists.”

“Huh? Why is that?”

Then Gaeul spoke with her yellow eyes shining brightly.

“… “I think I might be jealous.”

Seeing her like that gave me goosebumps down my spine that I couldn’t tell why.

I felt like I had to give in to her request

Otherwise, something big would happen.

“… “I will try to avoid it.”

“Thank you. Taeyang oppa!”

… I was going to join a band club and practice more, but I guess I’ll just have to practice on my own.

“Hey, Taeyang oppa. “Is it okay if I ask you one more favor?”

“Yeah, what is it? Because you showed a really cool side today. “I’ll listen to most things.”

Ga Eul hesitated, looking at me with a blush on her face, and then said.

“It’s a famous day I heard about… , No, because there is a restaurant! I was wondering if you could have lunch there with me.”

“It’s not that difficult. Rather, it was more convenient because the menu was set. “The boss even gave me a corporate card so I could eat delicious food.”

“And! Then…”

At that time, someone came next to us and started talking.

“The performance was really great!”

It was Seok Hyeon-woo who filmed the video for AllTube at my request.

“Honestly, it was the first time I was so deeply moved by something since Jin Yeoreum’s rhythmic gymnastics performance. “You both are truly amazing.”

He spoke with his face flushed as if he was deeply moved.

I also felt better because it felt like there was no exaggeration or flattery in the expression.

I like that guy because he is a very honest person.

“Thank you so much for seeing it that way. “I’m really glad that Manager Seok saw me and didn’t feel embarrassed.”

“Oh my, it’s Manager Seok. I’m not even a manager anymore because I quit Jinkang. Please just call me Manager Seok. Team Leader Seon.”

“I’m a little uncomfortable with that… “I’ll just call you Mr. Hyunwoo.”

As someone who grew up in a Confucian culture, it was not easy to treat someone who was older, more qualified, and more experienced than me as my subordinate. Seok Hyun-woo also seemed to understand that point and changed his focus to a related topic.

“All filming was completed normally. Since it was a fixed camera, there wasn’t much for me to do.”

“Just by protecting that, you have done enough. We all worked hard, so let’s go get something to eat.”

“Rice?”

“Yes, it’s fall and there’s a restaurant they want to go to.” Let’s go there.”

“It’s good. I don’t have a particular food to choose from…”

Seokhyeonwoo, who was smiling and talking cheerfully, suddenly stopped talking and began to break into a cold sweat.

I was wondering what he was so embarrassed about, so I followed his gaze and saw that he was looking at Gaeul.

Why are you doing that when you see Ga Eul?

Just smiling cutely?

Seok Hyeon-woo, who trembled slightly, suddenly spoke.

“… Haha, now that I think about it, I guess I still have some paperwork left to do when I get back to work? We also need to start discussing video editing. So, I have to return to work first.”

What kind of paperwork are you doing during lunch time?

The kid I’m discussing with will probably eat right now.

Our company is not a crazy company that makes people work without even feeding them.

It may change after debut, but…

“Hey, it’s okay. No one, not me, the boss, or Suyeon, wants to do work without eating. Don’t do that, let’s have a delicious lunch with us. Let’s be extravagant with a corporate card.”

“No, it’s really okay! Then, I will go into the company!”

Seok Hyeon-woo, who said that, hurriedly packed up his filming equipment and left the square, as if someone was chasing him.

“There are only two of us left.”

“… I know. “The two of us should go to that restaurant.”

“It’s so unfortunate.”

Well, that’s unfortunate. It’s good to go to restaurants together.

I also wanted to make Ga Eul and Seok Hyun Woo become closer.

Hopping around like a rabbit, I tried to set off for the restaurant she mentioned with Gaeul, who was just as disappointed as me.

At that time, someone else spoke between Ga Eul and me.

“I found the performance impressive.”

“Ah, James O. Composer!”

It was James Oh, a judge on Girls 100 and the best producer in existence.

It was an amazing coincidence to see someone who is one of the top ten people in Korea in terms of how busy he is.

“Autumn, greetings. “This is composer James O., Who has a reputation as a genius composer.”

“Oh, hello! “I’m Yu Ga-eul, a trainee at Two Bear Entertainment!”

“It was a good vocal. Please do not be convinced and work hard. “You have potential.”

I watched happily as Ga Eul continued to nod and thank him for his praise.

As expected from the best composer, he seemed to have recognized Gaeul’s talent.

I was very satisfied because I thought I might give Gaeul a song later.

“Anyway, what are you doing here?”

James Oh spoke casually, as if he was stating something obvious.

“It’s a hobby.”

“… Oh, I see.”

Is watching amateurs busking a hobby?

Well, considering that I also work as a producer, it’s a very healthy hobby.

It wouldn’t be a good idea to squeeze out the time you don’t have and interrupt yourself while you’re enjoying your hobbies.

This must be a very precious break for him. However, it was pointless to just say I was going to eat, so I asked out of courtesy.

Of course I will refuse since he is a very busy man, but I have to say it.

“We are going to a nearby restaurant for lunch. Would you like to go with us, composer James O?”

James Oh glanced at Autumn and said.

“I don’t miss this kind of thing. Let’s go. Delicious restaurant.”

… Isn’t this guy actually free?

“… Ah”

Autumn quietly quieted.
