Solo Swordmaster - Chapter 90
Episode #90. if you live hard
Seungjun Kim knew.
that you are still immature.
If it weren’t for KTB, which lacks a talent pool, and it wasn’t for the former PDs causing trouble one after another, I wouldn’t have been able to take on the program at all.
In fact, being hit in the back with a contract with WIM was a mistake that could have been avoided if it had been an experienced PD.
However, as a PD, he was able to assert himself.
that they will succeed
The music of the two people I heard a while ago.
The harmony of the song and the performance was so fantastic that I doubted anyone could imitate it.
A mysterious aura unique to a top-notch musician that can be seen only because he has the skill [Eye of Entertainment], and a mysterious aura that no top-notch musician has ever seen.
More than anything, I was impressed by them.
He gave Kim Seung-jun a certainty close to foreknowledge.
‘It’s possible with these two. No, it has to be these two!’
If it were Limon and Eugene, they would be able to fill Claire’s vacancy.
And maybe we can accomplish something beyond filling the void.
“If you have a guild or agency, please let us know. We will send you the contract with the best possible terms.”
Of course, that’s your intuition.
What if you recruit these unknown musicians as substitutes when Claire’s recruiting is in trouble?
You will be treated like crazy.
In particular, the general manager, who usually dislikes him, will try to chew him up.
However, Kim Seung-jun went ahead.
From the point of being stabbed in the back of the head by Chief Moon, this program is no different from being overturned anyway.
That means that KTB will also fail.
If it ended like this or that, I wanted to trust my intuition and gamble.
‘If things don’t work out, just beat the PD and that’s it!’
“Hmm…”
Maybe it’s because he felt a young determination in his eyes.
Limon, who was looking at Seungjun Kim with serious eyes, opened his mouth after a long silence.
“I have no idea.”
“…yes?”
“I have no idea.”
“Why do you mean that!?”
Seungjun Kim’s astonishment was natural.
Even though KTB is a small cable, it still broadcasts.
Besides, the fact that the program was originally intended for a top singer named Claire was an opportunity for even popular entertainers and musicians to feel greedy.
But how did you kick that good opportunity like this?
“If you suspect that I am an impostor, I can go to the broadcasting station with you and prove my identity.”
“Aren’t you suspicious?”
“Then why are you refusing?!”
“I don’t really want to be famous or make money with music.”
One miscalculation of Seungjun Kim.
Limon was not an obscure musician.
Where is that?
In terms of fame, she is a sword master who has saved the world several times, and in terms of money, she is Li Qingyu’s prospective daughter who is conspiring to eat the entire Seven Dragons.
There was no reason for him to covet even a handful of honor or pennies.
“Well, don’t be so frustrated in advance. I said I had no intention of doing it, but you don’t know if my friend has the same idea, right?”
“What do you mean…?”
Kim Seung-joon’s face suddenly brightened.
In front of him, Limon secretly turned his gaze to Eugene.
“How are you? Listening to it, the conditions seem to make it pretty bad.”
“…?”
“What is the look on your face as if you heard that warlock’s curse?”
Limon is shaken by Eugene’s reaction, who had been smiling brightly until a while ago, but then suddenly makes a mysterious expression again.
Seeing him like that, Yujin tilted her head.
“Didn’t your partner just tell you? I have no intention of becoming famous or making money through music.”
“yes.”
“Then why do you ask?”
“…Don’t you usually ask?”
“NO!”
Eugene spread one hand at once.
Then he said confidently, wiggling his index finger left and right.
“It’s about others to ask for opinions one by one. We are soul mates, so we are heart-to-heart and heart-to-heart alumni. Don’t you need to ask?”
Hearing what Eugene said in an tone as if he didn’t know why it was so obvious, he blinked for a while.
Limon confirmed that he had not heard something wrong through Kim Seung-jun, who had an anxious expression, and Yuna-kyung, who was not sure whether he was laughing or moaning.
Then he scratched his cheek and asked.
“In short, you have no intention of doing it either?”
“of course.”
“Why don’t you think about it some more and decide? It would be a good opportunity to debut as a singer even later.”
“Is that why you don’t like it?”
I wondered what this was all about, so I looked at Eugene with a puzzled expression for a while.
Limon asked, puzzled.
“Are you saying you refuse because you don’t want to debut?”
“huh.”
“why?”
“Do you need a reason?”
“It’s not necessary, but I’m curious.”
The moment he heard that, it was Yuna-kyung rather than Yu-jin who made an unexpected expression.
[What is the team leader doing? Do you dare to ask questions like that?]
Limon doesn’t bother to ask about other people’s stories.
It was a kind of habit that came about because he had lived a long time and had repeatedly met and parted with all kinds of human groups.
It was to the point that even Yuna-kyung knew right away that she was an orphan after working together for several years.
Limon is curious about the story of Eugene, whom he only met twice.
As Yuna-kyung, it was surprising and to the point of regret.
To her, Limon answered simply.
‘It’s because it’s a waste.’
[What’s a waste?]
‘To just leave this talent alone.’
Limon clicked his tongue inwardly.
After learning the violin, he listened to various music and looked at various musicians.
that’s why i knew
It is said that Eugene is a genius with potential comparable to world-renowned violinist Julia, although he has not yet bloomed.
‘Isn’t it a pity that a flower that could have bloomed beautifully when it grows up is still standing still?’
It just hasn’t bloomed yet.
If Eugene learns properly and trains steadily, he will be able to join the ranks of top singers within a few years.
That’s why Yuna-kyung made a rugged expression when she saw Limon saying that her talent was not worth it.
[…Your manager never said that to me, did you?]
‘Huh? Did you also have a talent?’
[I was also a talented person, right? He was an unprecedented genius at Hanbit Nursery School!]
‘If I can call myself a genius that only appears once in a hundred years, then I’ll admit that I had talent.’
[Does that make sense?!]
‘Why not? When I was the owner of the Tower of Swords, geniuses like that came by a dozen every year.’
[Is the sword tower Shi X and Jung X’s room?! Why are there so many 100-year-old talents!?]
It was Eugene’s low-key question that awakened Limon, who was knocking with Yuna-kyung.
“Are you really curious about why your partner is like that?”
“ok. Usually, kids who do art like to become famous and make money, don’t they?”
In fact, most people do.
Even if you are not an artist, few people hate being recognized and famous, and even fewer people hate money.
It’s just that, due to the nature of art, where fame is money, you pay more attention to fame.
“I like making money. But I hate singing for money.”
“why?”
“Because there is no soul in the song.”
A random answer if it’s out of the blue.
But Limon was not taken aback.
I just asked again with a strange expression on my face.
“Are you saying that art should always be a goal and not a means?”
“I don’t know how complicated it is. I just want to sing the songs I want when I want to sing.”
“I see… I understand.”
Looking at Eugene, who shook his head as if he didn’t know what he was talking about, but didn’t hesitate to answer, Limon smiled.
Then, it was Eugene who was rather flustered.
“Isn’t I strange to my partner?”
“There’s no reason to be weird, is there? If you hit it like that, it would be weird starting with me.”
Limon shrugged.
It was never an empty word.
In terms of living doing only what I wanted to do in the first place, Limon himself was the one who could be called the king of the end in that respect.
It’s been a long time since I looked at Limon with strange eyes.
Eugene finally laughed.
“Well, partners are really strange.”
“Is that what you mean?”
Looking at Eugene giggling and Limon giggling about what was so funny, Yuna-kyung asked shyly.
[…Hey, boss? I don’t know anything What the hell is Soul? Are you saying you want to keep the purity of art?]
‘If you don’t know, go ahead with what you don’t know. Even if you listen to the explanation, you won’t understand it with that bird’s head anyway.’
[Because that’s racial discrimination!?]
Whether Yuna-kyung is hot or not.
Limon just smiled and didn’t bother to explain.
That Eugene doesn’t like to be tied down, but it’s not because of obscure beliefs like the purity of art.
That’s why Limon stopped digging further.
Because it was his theory that no one has the right to force anyone, no matter how talented he is, if it is not the way he wants.
It was then.
I heard someone’s cautious voice.
“Are you okay with that talk?”
“huh? Didn’t you just hear that?”
“That’s…”
Limon nodded his head, understanding the general situation as he saw Kim Seung-jun, who was making an embarrassing expression.
And put a hand on his shoulder.
“I will cook the rice.”
“yes?”
“It will be difficult, but persevere. Still, if you live hard, won’t there be a day when the sun will shine?”
“….”
For a moment, look at Limon with a rotten face as he gives you deep consolation after you have confirmed that you are going through a hard time.
Seungjun Kim clenched his fists and shouted out loud.
“No matter what you say, I’m going to get you two on my program! never!”
“Do whatever you can.”
Like any old man who is accustomed to watching a young man burn with vain passion, Limon passed Kim Seung-jun’s words casually.
But Limon, Yujin, and even Kim Seungjun himself didn’t know.
The fact that his burning passion will eventually come true in a form no one expected.
* * *
The time when Seungjun Kim is burning such vain passion.
There were people who were immersed in a completely different meaning and several times more gloomy than that.
“so.”
An ornately decorated office.
Standing there with his back turned to admire the broken mural, middle-aged Wang Qiangong asked while fingering his handsome mustache.
“Is this the end of the report?”
“…”
“It’s amazing. To be able to say so confidently that there is no result.”
One of those with a dark face.
The head of the Shanghai royal family’s spy spoke cautiously, as if making an excuse.
“It is not without success. We’ve already spread the heavenly net to all suspicious flows, so we just have to wait for them to get caught.”
“That sounds great… Is it because you feel like you heard it last week?”
“That’s…”
“Oh, I’m sorry. Come to think of it, I forgot what I heard last week.”
At the words of the sarcastic king, the spy leader had no choice but to shut up and distort.
It’s already been a month since the Shanghai royal family mobilized all their capabilities.
However, there was no room for excuses for him, who was in charge of the family’s intelligence at the point where he couldn’t even catch the tail, let alone find the beasts.
“Does anyone have an alternative other than that goddamn craving?”
