13. I heard that your brother composed that song?

Kang Anna smiled benevolently and asked for a handshake with Midwyeol.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Anna Kang, the director of this place. I hope to see you more often in the future. Take care.”

“Yeah! Actually, I really wanted to do it for a long time… Personally, I was too busy… Ah! It’s okay now! No, even if I’m busy now, I’ll make sure to take out volunteer hours! I will do my best.”

Choi Seon-hye, who laughed at her daughter who was talking gibberish, said to the director.

“Then, Director, I will take the members and prepare to clean the room and bathe the children. Midwinter members are still new, so please let the director greet the children so they can get closer.”

“Yes, I will. Winter, would you like to come with me?”

“Yes, I see.”

In mid-winter, like a private soldier with a strong military discipline, he followed Director Kang Anna.

In the middle of winter, Director Kang Anna headed toward the playground, where about 20 children were huddled together.

Occasionally, a grass flute was blown to the children who were tired from class, but it became like a street performance.

Gyu-ha picked a bright yellow ginkgo leaf of the right size from a large ginkgo tree on the left side of the playground.

The children all looked at Gyu-ha with expectant eyes, and Gyu-ha thought for a moment about what kind of performance he would play for them, then closed his eyes and placed his mouth on a bright yellow ginkgo tree leaf.

The name of the song Kyuha is going to play is Yeonmoga (戀母謠)

It is a song made while watching orphans living in the slums when they shared the life of the bard ‘Walther von Moor Demian’, and it was also the first song played in this world.

The melody was simple yet addictive, and the song was filled with longing, but it also contained hope, so children’s reactions were especially good.

Beep~ beep beep beep

Beep pilnillini~

A heartbreaking sound that could not be believed to have come from the yellow ginkgo leaves spread out, and as if the wind that had been blowing calmly took a break for a while, the surroundings became calm like a lie, and the world seemed to focus on the sound of the grass flute for a moment.

Beep beep beep beep

philly nilly philly nilly

The sound of the flute that was wandering around the children resonated softly in the playground with a sense of sadness.

Some children closed their eyes and nodded as they listened, while others captured Kyuha playing the flute with moist eyes.

Kyuha’s flute playing made the children miss their parents, but also healed the wounds they received from their parents.

The short grass flute performance lasted about 2 minutes like that, and the children burst into tears and applauded enthusiastically.

“Wow, you’re the best, Kyuha oppa~~!!”

“Hyung, you’re really cool!!! Please try again later.”

Gyu-ha just smiled and stroked the heads of those children.

“Clap clap clap. Kyuha’s skills are really amazing. It was a great performance.”

Director Anna Kang also approached, applauding with a somewhat reminded look, perhaps impressed by Kyu-ha’s performance.

“Oh! This is the new Midwinter teacher here. Say hello.”

Until then, Midgeoreum, who had been just staring at Gyu-ha blankly, greeted Gyu-ha as if he came to his senses.

“hello. It is called Midwinter. I will leave it up to you.”

“hello. I ask you to sing. I wish you well too.”

“Then, since I have overdue administrative work, could Mr. Kyu-ha introduce me to our winter facility and say hello to the children? I will ask you a favor.”

“all right. Don’t worry, Director.”

“Thank you. Then I will go to the office first.”

After Director Kang Anna left, Gyu-ha took Mid-gyeol to visit the playroom, laundry room, bathroom, and bedroom in the nursery school, explaining the places.

Even Winter, who was a bit shy at first, quickly started to speak out, probably because of her bright personality.

“It was the first time in my life that I had played like that! How can a common leaf on the street make such a sound? The sound is better than most instruments, so I closed my eyes and listened to it without realizing it.”

“Thank you for listening. We still lack a lot.”

“Eek! Nonsense. If that’s not enough, all music college students across the country will have to starve to death. But how is Kyuha working here? You seem to be traveling alone.”

“ah! I’m from here too. I was adopted soon, but I found it again because it was a place with memories.”

“Ah… I’m sorry. I didn’t know that, so I just asked…”

“Do you have anything to be sorry about, Mr. Winter? it’s okay. Now, shall we go say hello to the children?”

Midwinter quietly followed Kyu-ha to the place where the children were taking classes.

It was around the end of class, so the children were playing around with each other and were very happy when Kyu-ha approached.

“oh! It’s Kyuha hyung~!”

“Guys, I have something to say, so can you gather here for a moment?”

Even though it was noisy, Kyu-ha talked and the children gathered in one place without saying anything.

“This is the new teacher here today. Mr. Winter, would you like to introduce yourself?”

Mid-gyeol looked at the children with a somewhat nervous look and shouted out bravely.

“Hey guys! I say midwinter! Let’s get along well in the future.”

“Okay applause”

“Wow, clap clap clap.”

“It’s pretty, sir!”

Even in the middle of winter, when I was nervous about the children’s enthusiastic welcome, I quickly became friendly with the children with a comfortable complexion and a smile.

Two weeks passed like that, and Kyu-ha and Winter became very close before they knew it, and they became brothers and sisters.

Now that he knows that no matter what he says, Kyu-ha doesn’t panic or get angry, the first awkwardness is gone, and it was winter when the grumbling and pettiness increased.

“Brother, I’m in a gloomy mood today, so can you sing me a piece of grass flute?”

“Why are you in a bad mood? What’s going on?”

“No… Actually, my job isn’t going well these days.”

Mid-gyeol talked to Kyu-ha as if lamenting with a downcast expression.

“I have a chance to stand alone this time, so I have to hold onto it well, but I don’t think it will work out. There are so many options to choose from that I don’t like…”

“no! More than that, oppa, don’t you really know who I am?”

“…? It’s midwinter.”

“no! You don’t know the lead vocalist of the girl group Heart Signal Midwinter…? I really didn’t know. Ehyo… I have to work harder.”

“I don’t watch TV at all, so I don’t know the singers very well.”

“….. anyway! After working in a group, my agency decided to release a solo digital single this time, but none of the songs I heard were to my liking! It’s my first solo activity… But I don’t want to sing any songs… Anyway, I’m worried.”

“Hmm… a song.”

“however!? I was giving up on myself thinking ‘it’s going to work somehow’, but like a real lie, a song I like appeared right away, right? So… big… brother, I heard that you composed the song you sang with that flute? Can I use that song? I will write the lyrics myself!”

“yes? Are you talking about love? Hmm…. I guess it doesn’t matter here? Wait a minute.”

It was a song I made anyway, and it didn’t matter here anyway, so I didn’t really care.

First of all, I thought I should ask the company for their understanding, so I immediately called Han Jeong-hee, the team manager.

“Yes. There is a song that I composed, none other than the team leader…”

When I explained everything to team leader Han Jeong-hee, he readily agreed.

“It doesn’t matter, Mr. Kyuha. Our contract also stipulates that only the revenue generated while working as an actor, such as appearance fees and advertisement fees, is distributed with the company.”

“all right. manager.”

Kyu-ha hung up the phone with Han Jeong-hee and said while looking at winter.

“yes. You can write this song.”

“Aww!! really? Actually, when I heard the song for the first time, I fell in love for the first time! Thank you so much.”

Then, Gyu-ha, who brought paper and a pen, began to fill in the notes and handed over the completed sheet music to Mid-gyeol.

“Come on, love is a sheet music. The lyrics are winter, you use it well. You just have to keep thinking about the feeling of missing someone while writing the lyrics.”

Midwinter, who had been staring blankly at Kyuha, who was instantly drawing out the score on the spot, nodded strongly.

“I’m really, really really going to try it out!!”

“But what is your brother doing? Seeing you just draw sheet music, are you a music student? A freelance composer?”

“me? But since I made my official debut, can I just call myself an actor?”

“Eh? Is your brother learning?”

Winter, who thought Kyuha was an unknown actor, spoke cautiously.

“My brother is smart and has a lot of talent, so someday he will be able to become a famous actor. Be sure not to give up and do your best!”

“thanks. Even so, the agency has been contacting me to talk about my next project.”

“to? Do you have an agency?”

“Yes, it’s called Stellar Entertainment.”

“Hup! It’s very famous there, isn’t it? I know it is a very famous place for actors.”

“When I saw it at the dinner party, there were a lot of great seniors.”

Midwinter wore an expression of incomprehensibility.

“Brother, are there any recent works you appeared in?”

“Yes, yes. ‘In the Name of the Devil’ is a work directed by the quiet director. I came here because my agency told me to take a break after finishing that project.”

“Hey…you came out there? Maybe… Uh! Come to think of it, he’s like the craziest guy there… Huh?! Nonsense! Was your brother that person? Is it completely different?”

Midwinter was so surprised that he poured out his words like a rapid-fire cannon.

“Wow… awesome jackpot! That your brother was that actor? How can the real image be so different? I am really learning. If you hadn’t told me, you wouldn’t have known for the rest of your life, would you?”

Mid-gyeol learned that Kyu-ha was an actor and talked about whether he felt a sense of kinship with the fact that they were in the same entertainment industry.

“Anyway, since we’re in the same entertainment industry, let’s do better in the future with camaraderie! In that sense, give me your cell phone for a moment.”

Gyu-ha was confused, but handed over his cell phone as requested, and Winter quickly entered his number, pressed the call button once, and handed it to Gyu-ha.

“ruler! If you have any worries or difficulties in the future, please listen without words! Are you okay? Then I’ll go write down the lyrics. I’ll contact you. Killer brother~!”

Midwinter went back humming a song that was so exciting.

Stellar Entertainment Breakout Room

In the neatly organized conference room, Kyu-ha, manager Bong-gu, and team leader Han Jeong-hee gathered to talk about the next project.

When Kyu-ha and Bong-gu took their seats, team leader Han Jeong-hee put a copy of the script in his hand on the desk.

“This is the script I got from Kyuha this time. First of all, this time it’s not a movie, it’s a drama. The genre is… I’m a bit surprised, but it’s a romance.”
