Chapter 85 – #14. Level Up (5)
All I want is to wake up in the same bed as you
You are lovely in everything from head to toe
I’m proud that you’re my girl
Don’t think like that
You will be held in my arms
Don’t think of the impossible (baby~)
You are lovely in everything from head to toe
I’m proud that you’re my girl
Don’t think like that
You will be held in my arms
Don’t think of the impossible (baby~))
I’m proud that you’re my girl
Oh what a joy
Like a spring breeze
My mood rises and a hum comes out
Lay out the red carpet, spread it with clouds in the sky
The moment your feet step on it, my heart will be with you too~♪
“… It has grown more than yesterday.”
After the song was over, Bok-soon noona spat out her impressions.
“Good job?”
“You are a very strange case. Your voice is getting better and better. I want this to make sense. How can a human voice change in real time? It just keeps getting better and better.”
Coins poured into the song are steadily working well.
Even when I thought about it, my singing skills became quite reasonable, so Bok-soon noona, who was conducting the class, was admiring it.
Now, if someone asks me to sing, I think I can do it with confidence.
“Thanks to the teacher who taught me well.”
“Don’t be cocky. It’s still a long way from hearing the sound of a professional.”
Although his skills increase with coins, the compliments pouring in around him keep making him feel like he has wings.
I could see how my skills improved just by using coins, so learning was enjoyable from my point of view as well.
I became interested in the songs I was not interested in, and now the time to practice dance was not as difficult as it was.
‘Whoever it is, I’ve just started learning, but if my skills improve steadily, I’ll have no choice but to have fun?’
When I first practiced dancing, I was busy imitating others because I thought I had to quickly improve my skills.
But now I’m starting to know what real dancing is.
It has come to the stage of contemplating how to make this dance taste more delicious, rather than just copying others.
Even though they dance the same dance, it feels very different if you compare it to pros and amateurs. Currently, I can say that I have reached the introductory stage to get out of the amateur level.
‘I turned the coin I was investing in dance into a song, and my skills improved dramatically. It’s really fun because the song goes well.’
Unfortunately, it is impossible to continue growing at this rate.
Coins collected during the two-week vacation have been exhausted.
[Possessed coins: 0 (3,550)]
It was very disappointing that the coins collected by solving the missions could not be raised.
“The technical part is developing at a really great speed, so I’m not worried, but why doesn’t the number of songs with emotions increase?”
“Have you not grown up?”
“Even now, if you ask me to go over it, I can go over it. But if you have a talent like yours, shouldn’t you look further into the future? Knowing how to contain your emotions is important if you want to sing songs that are recognized by people. Steamed buns without red beans are just bland.”
“But I don’t know what to do even if I try to sing it with emotion.”
“As a teacher, I hate to say this, but I think teaching how to put emotions into songs is always difficult. Even if I try to explain it to the students, I have no choice but to be vague, and I can’t say that the way I do it works for all students. Injecting education is impossible. There is no other way than for students to wake up on their own.”
It’s a way to sing with emotion…
As the heartwarming feeling that I have grown this far comes to mind, a series of weak thoughts come to mind, wondering if this can’t be solved with a coin.
‘Strangely, coins don’t grow the emotional part very well.’
Even if you raise your abilities with coins, most of them show clear growth in the technique part, but it doesn’t seem like their skills are growing in the emotional part.
Moreover, it was all the more so since the phrase “Putting emotions into a song” Doesn’t stand out as clearly as technique.
It’s clear that Joong can’t cut his hair and that his singing skills are improving, but in the emotional part, I couldn’t tell if this had improved or if I was walking in place.
“Teacher, how do you put your emotions in when you sing?”
“I tend to focus on the lyrics. Before you sing a song, you should understand all the lyrics and think about what emotions and thoughts you made of this song. And then I make a story related to the lyrics.”
“A story?”
Are you talking about the concept?
“Would you like to try it? If you don’t understand it, it’s easier to understand if you do it yourself.”
“… Will it?”
“I don’t know if I can do well. Whoops! You say you’re not good at acting.”
Bok-soon noona smiled meaningfully.
“?”
You say you need acting to tell a story to the lyrics?
Since I didn’t know anything, I just tilted my head.
“Didn’t you know that when you sing, you need to have a good fight like in a movie?”
At this moment, Bok-soon noona felt like a perfect teacher.
♧ ♧ ♧
As soon as I returned to the dorm, I thought about who was the best singer among the members.
‘I’m sure it’s Kangjun, right?’
I’m not sure because I’ve never really competed with kids in terms of singing skills, but if I had to choose someone I know who really likes to sing, I thought it would be Kangjun.
‘Kangjun, I’ve decided on you!’
Smart tock-
“Kang Jun-ah. Can I come in for a minute?”
“… Haesol hyung?”
“Huh.”
“Come in.”
When I opened the door, Kang Jun-yi was lying on the bed.
“Are you going to sleep?”
“No, I want to watch some drama.”
Juni Kang’s hobbies are watching dramas and movies.
She seemed to have a secret desire for acting as well, and she was taking an acting class quite diligently.
Among her members, she is the one with the most handsome face after me, so she thinks that it would not be bad for her to be an actress.
“Can you give me a minute?”
“Of course.”
“It’s not a big deal, but I wanted to ask because you sing the best among our members.”
“Is it about a song?”
“Huh.”
“It’s a big deal. My brother asked me all the songs. I don’t know if this will help, but if I know anything, I’ll let you know. What are you curious about?”
As my skills have improved dramatically, I know that all the members are working hard in a subtle competitive spirit.
If she had been a perverted person, she would have shown dislike for my question.
“How to sing with emotion. The teacher says it won’t increase. From what I can see, Kang-Jun seems to know you, so I wanted to ask.”
“Oh~.”
Kang-Jun put down her cell phone and sat down on the bed as if he understood the situation at my words.
“Hmm, what I’m doing isn’t the right answer, but is that okay?”
“Of course it is fine. I heard the teacher’s method, but it didn’t work for me. So I was wondering what your method was.”
“What method does the teacher use?”
“I check the lyrics of the song, and I create my own story with the lyrics. And when they sing, they say that they sing while acting as if they became the main character of the story they made up.”
“Wow~ I’ll try it later. I think that would be fun too.”
He asked me to tell him how to use it, so he was rather interested in Bok-soon noona’s method.
I urged Kang Jun.
“Hurry. Please tell me how.”
I don’t want to spend a coin that I’m too busy writing for a song for acting.
I am guessing that maybe the emotional problem can be solved by improving my acting ability.
However, I didn’t want to waste my coins on acting because my singing skills hadn’t risen to a satisfactory level yet.
‘I don’t even have coins to use for acting.’
“In my case, should I say the melody rather than the lyrics? Should I say Rhythm? It seems to focus on the sound and breathing. Should I say that if you focus on the flowing sound and follow it, emotions build up on their own? You release those accumulated emotions through breathing.”
“Breath…”
There is a part that subtly overlaps with what I heard from Bok-soon noona.
Kang Joon said that he controls his emotions through breathing, and Boksun noona explained that he controls emotions through the strength and weakness of air and voice.
“There are times when the melody and my voice fit well. It’s really thrilling when you sing that kind of song. It seems to capture emotions well. The way the teacher does it isn’t bad either, but personally, I think lyrics are one of the instruments that embellish a song, so I’d like to tell hyung that my tip is to focus on the rhythm. And if this doesn’t feel right…”
Kang Joon went wild.
I knew he was a guy who liked to sing, but it’s scary when a kid who doesn’t talk much turns into a two-much talker.
‘I’ll have to finish asking other people for their know-how with this.’
According to Pony, I heard that there is nothing that cannot be bought with coins, but is it impossible to put emotions into a song by raising the singing ability?
I first thanked Kangjun for the tips he gave me, then returned to my room and gave him a gift cone.
‘I’ll have to check the status window.’
Through several experiences, I vaguely understood that the status window was like a pearl necklace hanging around a pig’s neck.
In order to make full use of the status window’s functions, you have no choice but to look at it frequently.
Even if I asked Pony for an explanation, I couldn’t look nice for taking away my own.
“Did something like this happen?”
[The King of Vocal Skills (Book) 990 Coins]
[Emotion Vocal Training (Book) 990 Coins]
And after diligently searching the status window, the result I found appeared in front of me.
“In the end, the answer is a store.”
If you try to do something, there is no corner where money doesn’t go in.
I found the answer this time, but it costs a lot of coins.
An object that looks like an ordinary paper book has the ability to automatically accumulate knowledge in your head when you open it like a ‘skill book’ that exists in the game.
[Completely conquering a foreign language-English edition (book) 990 coins]
“Foreign languages are also sold this way.”
I raised my language acquisition ability with coins, but it would have been better to buy things without having to.
Of course, the price of 990 coins played a role in suppressing the purchase button.
‘It’s not a bad thing to increase your knowledge of music, but if I keep making metallurgy purchases like this, when will I get 110,000 points?’
I vowed not to buy any more.
However, if you can’t stand the urge and keep using coins little by little, it will take a very long time to collect 110,000 coins.
‘Let’s just be patient. If I improve my singing skills, my feelings will somehow be resolved.’
If that doesn’t work, wouldn’t it be possible to cover it by raising the acting ability?
“…”
I’m sorry, so let’s put it in the shopping cart.
I shook off my lingering feelings and closed the status window.
‘Emotions.’
I decided to put my problems aside for now and think about Ahyeon’s work, which I will meet in a few days.
[Me: Now?]
[Aheoning: No! I haven’t slept yet.]
[Me: I’m sorry I saw you so briefly today, would you like to meet for a while?]
[Aheoning: Now? Are not you tired? ;Grave;]
[Me: There’s no way I’m tired of meeting you. ( ˆoˆ )/]
It was not a new proposal because he used to meet me often at dawn.
[Aheuning: I like it, but… It’s okay if it’s because of today’s work, so you don’t have to overdo it. I’m really not lying, I’m totally fine! ( ⁎ ᵕᴗᵕ ⁎ )]
[Me: I want to see you.]
[Aheuning: Ugh… That’s against the rules. Okay. Let’s meet.]
Fortunately, Ahyeon didn’t refuse my offer to the end.
