Chapter 403 – I’ll Allow You to Hurt Me (8)
Time goes by faster when you are focusing on something. Time passed quickly for Eunyul and Gahee Min while they were making songs, and for Seo Juhwan and his party his, they were preparing for the final exam.
It was June 18, and the final exams for the first semester were over.
“Finished! Freedom!”
“Oh yeah! Let’s go get a drink! Got it all today! If you fall, you fall behind!”
Seo Ju-hwan and Lee Seok-chan hurrahed.
The companions looked at the two people with bewildered eyes.
“What are they? Anyone who sees it will know that you studied very hard.”
“I know yeah. Both of them took a rough test this time too.”
“Isn’t that what it is?”
“Eh? Did you guys study hard?”
“No, not this time, I meant the roughest I’ve ever seen. They don’t even cram.”
“Aha.”
It was a conversation between Jung Ha-yeon, the undisputed number one, and Yoo Ji-gyeong, who is closely following her.
On the other hand, Deokhoon Jang sat on his desk with dark circles in his eyes.
“Uhhhhh… I’m dying to do the serialization and exam at the same time…….”
Seeing Deokhun Jang like that, Seokchan Lee giggled and patted him on the back.
“Zasha, so you should have prepared the stockpile in advance. Or do you study normally?”
“Do you think that is easier said than done?”
“Duckhu, how many times did you get on the typing test?”
“Suddenly? Well, I think it comes out around 450.”
Hearing those words, Lee Seok-chan put his finger in the air and pretended to knock on the calculator.
“If you ride 450 words in a minute, that’s 4500 words in 10 minutes. Even if you roughly cut it in half, one side is completed in 30 minutes, right? Wow, isn’t this honey?”
“… You cross the line.”
“But why are you whining about not doing this? I’m so fucking lazy I’m falling for it. Gomtangy Shack.”
“Brother, how about a sparring match today?”
In Jang Deok-hoon’s eyes, he was too young to live. He glared at Lee Seok-chan with deadly eyes and spat out.
“If anyone can do that, bring it. If you can’t bring it, today’s catastrophe will happen.”
“Look at the scolding you say to this bastard.”
“If you apologize now, I’ll take care of you again. Please allow me to be polite.”
The 187cm muscular giant grewled, and the feeling of intimidation was extraordinary. But Lee Seok-chan still giggled and casually pointed behind her.
“There it is. It takes less than an hour to write one episode.”
“Who…Ah.”
The moment he confirmed the object he was pointing at, Jang Deok-hoon’s eyes slowly drained of strength and resentment settled in him.
“Hey……”
Jang Deok-hun tried to hate the teacher he respected.
Seo Joo-hwan was a madman who would grind for ten years if he was bored.

Seo Joo-hwan continued typing without a break, then stopped and looked at the screen. A few minutes to look at it like that. He sighed and ended his blessing.
Lucy asked with her doubts.
[Do you not write well?]
“It’s not because it’s not written well, it’s because it’s something we need to think about. I have to write the lyrics myself for a song that expresses the emotions of the main character.”
[This is the highlight part.]
“Yes. So I’m going to think about it a bit more. Lyricist and composition feel a little different. This time, I want to write real lyrics properly, not metaphors, but it’s quite difficult.”
When writing lyrics, there are more things to consider than you think. For example, you have to choose a word that is easier to pronounce even if it is the same expression, or you have to match the rhyme of the front and back sentences. In fact, since it was a novel, there was no need to consider every single detail of it, but Seo Joo-hwan wanted to take care of the details.
‘I think it would be nice to sing a song myself and use it as an insert song.’
However, contrary to my thoughts, there was no sentence that immediately came to mind. It seemed that I had to refer to existing song lyrics or poems.
[You mean poetry? Well, it’s similar to a song.]
“Yes. That’s why there are many songs made with poetry. In the case of rap, it is sometimes described as ‘poetry on the street’.”
[I have a lot of stockpile, so I’ll have enough time to think about it. Fortunately, the.]
“I mean.”
It was when I was talking to Lucy like that.
“Hwan-i brother! You have to prepare soon!”
Han Soo-ah’s voice came from outside the door. At that, Seo Joo-hwan shut down the PC and stood up. Today was the day of the ‘room singing contest’ held by him and Han Soo-ah.
He thought as he opened the door.
‘I think Yul prepared well.’
Corner Singing Contest.
It was a stage where Eunyul showed off her achievements.
*
Han Soo-ah’s house is right next to Seo Joo-hwan. Thanks to that, he was able to get a seat on time.
As Seo Joo-hwan sat down on the chair, Han Soo-ah spoke into the microphone.
“From now on, Hangomi Bae will start singing in the corner of the room Ah! Wow! Clap clap clap!”
“Oh oh. Clap clap clap.”
After roughly responding with a round of applause, a chat came up.
– I can see how responsive it ishaha
– I eat 300,000 won for first place!
– Wow, you grew up a lot. How much are you betting on a tournament?
– That’s right, isn’t the total prize money around 70?
– Does 700,000 won look like Jaws? The other room is roughly a Big Mac or chicken and it’s over. What and how much do you expect from a one-man show, you bastard?
– I didn’t know because I didn’t look at the lintel… Sorry…….
– Gomi is pretty! Cute!
– Hwan-i oppa is cool! Good looks!
– I want to exercise with Hwan’s older brother (Doleong). Look at the width of your shoulders, your mouth is watering
– I don’t need 300,000 won, I just want to exercise together for a day
– Hangomi is out of the country, so all you need is writer Seohwan
– Lol lol
Han Soo-ah, who saw the chat, shouted.
“Wow, this is my broadcast! And I got exercise directly from my brother! Do you see this? Suck! Biceps!”
A biceps protruded from Han Soo-ah’s arm. Although his muscles were weakly split, it was insignificant because of his small frame and thin arms.
-HahaWhat?
– It’s so insignificant that it’s so cutehaha
– Will it break if I hit it?
– The hells are so excitedhaha
– Gomi is over, Soldier hyung, show me your biceps
“Me? Komiya, keep your posture.”
“Uh?”
I stood behind Han Soo-ah’s arm. There was a difference in thickness of more than 2.5 times.
– Come on;
– It comes more because it is prepared. Samdu also camehaha
– Hyung tell me your routine
– Isn’t this a singing contest?
– You came to the wrong room haha
– This is the gym.
“Nope! You’ve come to the right place! Now, before we start, I’ll choose a song. I sing a song too!”
– You want to call three bears?
– Children’s songs go wellhaha
-Ngomi I did a song broadcast in the past. Pretty good call
– Really?
After turning on the MR, Han Soo-ah started singing. As one viewer said, Han Soo-ah sang quite well. Compared to a real singer, she’s clumsy, but for a normal person, her high notes are pretty neat.
– Oh, you sing much better than I thought.
– Your voice becomes a bit more mature when you sing. Is this steamed neck?
– A lot of people change their voices when they sing.
– The plate is laid out well. It’s just the right level, so I think it’ll be good for the next personhaha
Han Soo-ah sang very well, but it wasn’t particularly outstanding. Rather, it helped create a good atmosphere.
After finishing the song, Han Soo-ah smiled and said,
“My song ends here! From now on, people who have access to outsing, please request a song! Who is the first person to hit karaoke in the corner of the room?! Dugu dugu dugu! Hwani oppa, beatbox me! Du-gu-du-gu-du-gu!”
“Ok? How do I beatbox?”
“Eh? Is there anything your brother can’t do?”
Han Soo-ah opened her eyes wide as if she was really surprised. What was absurd was that the chat window response was not significantly different.
– What is it? Really can’t? Why?
– Why not?
– Is it Seohwan?
– Didn’t you know how to do everything?
– Did you catch the killer?
Seo Joo-hwan said as if he was absurd.
“What is this almighty human frame? What does beatboxing have to do with catching a murderer? And there are many things I can’t do. The only things I know how to do are novel serialization, illustration, games, dancing, singing, acting, vocal imitation, and exercise.”
Boos came up in the chat window.
– Erai C8 Wow!
– You’re so fucking unlucky.
– I’m not lucky, but it’s crazy because it’s real.
– No, haha, the world haha, that’s fucking unfair.
– Hwan-i oppa is so cool!
– My brother’s serialization of novels is a hobby hehe
“No, fiction is my main job. Oh, Komiya, the first applicant came in.”
“Dudungtak! The first participant is Kkotshabu! Ah, I want to eat shabu-shabu.”
[‘Kkotshabu’ sponsored ‘10,000 won’.]
– Please eat me!
“No, I guess the meaning is different?!”
“Why, it could be a woman.”
“What matters! Anyway, thank you for your support! As I said before, there are no reactions during the karaoke content, so please forgive me!”
– No, 10,000 won is always appreciatedhaha
-Haha
– ㅗㅜㅑBobim Gaekkoline (You have been banned from chatting for 10 minutes.)
– No 7 guyhaha
– If you are a real woman
Han Soo-ah allowed Kkot Shabu’s voice while watching the chatting reaction.
= Oh, ah. Can you hear me?
Kkot Shabu’s voice had a tone reminiscent of a female announcer.
Han Sua was started and caught her breath.
“Hey, are you a real woman?”
= Ahaha. Hello. I was joking, but I’m sorry the atmosphere turned out this way.
“It was a paid chat, so that’s okay!”
= Ahhhhh!
Kkotshabu burst into laughter. Han Soo-ah put on a dumbfounded expression at the unusual laughter that did n’t go well with her tidy voice.
“What kind of crow sound… ?”
= Oh, great. Let’s start singing! Oh, Hwan-i oppa, I’m a fan!
“Eek! Aren’t you a fan of mine?!”
“Yeah, I’m your brother… ?”
= Sure! If you’re handsome, you’re my brother!
“OK. Then something like that.”
“Wow, look how shameless Hwan-i oppa is. Anyway, I’ll play the song! Cue!”
The song started
Flower Shabu selected a song with a very high pitch, and she showed excellent skills beyond her expectations of her. She guessed that she was in the B class in terms of talent level.
“Wow! I hear you! What is your singing ability from the first runner! How are you so good at it!”
= Thank you. Oh, and I’m also a fan of Gomi. Don’t be sad~!
“OMG. Fully bow down and receive me! Thank you though! Sister, I like you!”
Han Soo-ah drew a heart over her head.
Songs and short chatter followed, and the order was reversed. And it was when the turn turned around four times. The participants who entered the karaoke program Outsing covered the chat with ‘TT’.
– Why is everyone calling you so well? Why am I the only normal person?
– Turn the bomb Evande;
– No, what if I sing rap well..ㅠ
– This is the power of Kono… ? The average level is too high. What is this
– Whoops. Guys, I’ll just take the bomb squad.
[‘Tteokju’ sponsored ‘10,000 won’.]
– I’ll change the mood, so please forgive me if I can’t sing.
– A hero appeared!
– Thank you.
And after a while
Angry chats popped up.
– It’s Bomb Squad Yabalom!
– Change the atmosphere!
– I recognized Ha Seong-woo when he was selecting a song Shiburehaha
– Everyone except me is a deceiver.
Seo Joo-hwan and Han Soo-ah, who were hosting the broadcast, burst into laughter.
“Isn’t this enough for a few real singers to mix?”
“Excuse me. Why don’t you guys become singers… ?”
No matter how you look at it, the average song grade is C or higher. The person Seo Joo-hwan chose as a candidate for the championship seemed to have a B+ level, and there were several other people who deserved to be ranked B. For reference, the winner he selected was the person who had chatted with “Everyone is a deceiver except me”.
“There are close to thirty participants, but there are only two people who are not deceivers. Are you guys out of conscience?”
“These fights! Pretend you can’t do everything, but those who really couldn’t call will be hurt!”
“Sua, that kills me twice.”
“Ah, no, I was saying that I couldn’t sing compared to the others!”
At the words of the two, the outsing participants hit the chat.
– Haha xx;;
– Ah, I was thinking of winning first place.
– So, who said to bet 300,000 won on the first prize?
– Chicken was the goal, but there was no way.
-Only I became a clown….
– I have it too ㅠㅠ They are all liars, really ;ㅅ;
Then a sponsor chat came.
[‘Yul-yul’ sponsored ‘1,000’.]
– They’re all bad…….
*
Eun-yul, who was watching the broadcast, turned to Min Ga-hee, who was sitting next to her.
“Kahee, I lost my confidence. I’ll just do it later… ? Actually, oppa didn’t set a period of time, until when, right?”
Eun-yul was almost on the verge of crying. I had some confidence through the hard practice, but when I saw the outstanding contestants, I felt anxious.
Min Ga-hee laughed awkwardly, then tucked away! She does and she hits his biceps. Slap! When the sound resounded, Eun-yul was started as if she had been beaten.
“Unni Yul, wake up! Why are you stuttering again!”
“Uh, uh! Sorry!”
Surprised, Eun-yul reflexively nodded his head.
Min Ga-hee slapped her arm her once more and said.
“It is true that the contestants sing better than they thought. However! It’s just a normal person! Do you know what I’m talking about?!”
“Ah, Al… I honestly don’t know…….”
Min Ga-hee nodded her head as if she knew that, and continued speaking with a serious expression.
“Being a singer is not just about singing well. Vocal skills aren’t everything. There are plenty of singers who captivate the public with better-to-listen singing voices even if they lack a bit in terms of skill. Each has different strengths. It could be a unique tone, a singer’s ego contained in a song, or an emotional delivery that immerses people in themselves. Whether it exists or not is the difference between a singer who makes a fortune and a singer who doesn’t. OK?”
“Oh, okay… ?”
Eun-yul answered unexpectedly.
Min Ga-hee put her hands on Eun-yul’s shoulders and said confidently.
“Didn’t I say I was originally a vocal major? To be honest, I was pretty good at singing. But I rarely make my own songs and sing them. Like I said just a moment ago, there was absolutely no ‘something’ as a singer.”
“…….”
“But my sister has it. The only thing lacking is confidence. So have confidence.”
“… Yes. Thank you, Gahee.”
Eun-yul nodded her head with her moved face.
‘Yeah, I can. You have to have confidence.’
Didn’t you spend most of your day practicing singing? Thanks to Min Ga-hee’s intensive training, her vocal skills her have also improved compared to when she was active. You should be confident enough.
As Eun-yul clenched her fists and made a promise, Ga-hee Min smiled awkwardly and looked at her broadcast screen of her.
‘I said it as it was, but… Will it be all right?’
I don’t know why they didn’t go to music college. No, maybe the majors are quite mixed.
*
The corner singing contest has reached its end. Finally, only one person remains.
Seo Joo-hwan and Han Soo-ah looked at each other and nodded.
“Now, the last step is ‘Yul-yul’!”
“The end of the bomb rotation… I’m sorry. Put them in last order.”
“Yul-yul, I’m sorry…… !”
“Cheer up, Yul-Yul!”
Seo Joo-hwan and Han Soo-ah exaggeratedly bowed their heads and apologized.
Viewers’ chats were plastered with question marks.
– ?
– What? Someone you know?
– Do you think calling someone you really know?
– Huh, was the 1st place decided?
– It’s done by viewer voting, but how do you decide ithaha
– Ayy, but if you’re an acquaintance, the votes might be a bit concentrated.
– Just don’t show off
Han Soo-ah, who saw the chat, said quickly.
“Yul-yul unni is an acquaintance of my brother and me, and even if she is included in the vote, she doesn’t receive the prize money.”
One viewer questioned.
– If you’re not going to give a prize, why include a vote?
Seo Joo-hwan answered.
“Actually, Yul-yul is an aspiring singer. Please listen and judge her potential as a singer.”
“Hey. Hwan-i oppa, if you say that…!”
“I’m telling you to be a burden on purpose.”
Seo Joo-hwan looked at the cam thinking of Eun-yul, who was watching the broadcast.
“You don’t show your face and you only do it online. I will become a singer in the future, so I have to overcome this burden.”
“Brother Hwan…….”
Han Soo-ah looked at Seo Joo-hwan and Cam with slightly uneasy eyes. She was worried because she knew that Eun-yul was sick.
– Spartan-style training
-Burden ON
– Doesn’t sound particularly harsh, does it? If you’re going to be a singer, this arrangement shouldn’t be a big deal, right?
– I feel like a fucking burden
– I wish you well
– Still, vote calmly. There is no such thing as friend privilege
Viewers’ attention was focused on Eun-yul.
However, Seo Joo-hwan did not pay attention to the chat and only added a word.
“Yul, I will believe that she can do it.”
Seo Joo-hwan deliberately made her feel like this even though he knew it would be a burden to her. It was because she knew Eun-yul’s fetish was hers.
Fetish, autogonistophilia.
A syndrome in which you get excited when you are on stage or on camera and in public attention.
‘Let’s go on stage this time, Yul-ah.’
He hoped that Eunyul would not end up as a faceless singer.
After a while.
A chat came up.
– Yul-yul: I can.
At the same time, a clear voice was heard.
= Let’s start singing. It’s a self-composed song I made with a friend, and the title is ‘One Step’.
