Chapter 26 3. Shake a Tail Feather (6) When I returned home, Subin came running toward me, sniffing excitedly. “Oppa!” “Yeah? Did our Subin finish all her homework?” As I patted her head, she suddenly asked an unexpected question. “Oppa, are you Ray?” I froze in shock. “How did you find out?” “Hehe.” Subin spoke excitedly. “It’s winter break, so I haven’t seen my friends much lately. But I really wanted to show off the jumper you bought me, so I met…

Chapter 25 3. Shake a Tail Feather (5) “Whoa.” Hyunwoo was right. For an entire week after uploading the audio tracks, my channel stayed stuck at three subscribers with no changes at all. But only two days after uploading the piano performance video showing my face, the subscriber count exploded. Hyunwoo lay arrogantly on the sofa, wiggling his feet proudly. “So? What do you think of this hyung’s skills?” “……” The subscriber count displayed on the channel was…

Chapter 24 3. Shake a Tail Feather (4) New Year’s Day had already passed, and before I knew it, it was January 11th, 2026. I was alone in Hyunwoo’s officetel, working on music. Hearing the keypad at the door beep, it seemed Hyunwoo had returned. “What the hell, Minjun’s here?” Hyunwoo has gone down to Tongyeong since January 1st to visit his grandfather in the countryside and only just came back today. It had been a while since I last saw him, so I pushed my chair back from the…

Chapter 23 3. Shake a Tail Feather (3) I’m a man born with the DNA of an energetic Black uncle built into me from the start. I’m confident when it comes to having fun. The thing I do best is making the people around me enjoy themselves together with me. In my previous life, unless I was singing a heavy emotional song, I always sat at the piano smiling brightly, shaking my shoulders and hips while dancing. After watching K-pop music videos, I realized those movements would probably be too…

Chapter 22 3. Shake a Tail Feather (2) I still needed to continue taking MIDI lessons from Minjae hyung, but now that I had decided to make my own music, there was something I needed to study first. Music trends. The music trends from the late 1940s through the early 2000s, when I had been active, would obviously be very different from today’s. Back then, American music dominated the global market. But now this was an era where K-pop songs ranked number one on the Billboard…

Chapter 21 3. Shake a Tail Feather (1) Even after finishing the second-round exam for Hongdae, I was still busy. Because Minjun had applied to four universities total, including Hongdae. There was no reason to insist on only one school, so I planned to simply attend whichever university accepted me with a scholarship. So I took the exams for the remaining schools too. At the same time, I was taking MIDI lessons from Minjae hyung and practicing everything I learned at Hyunwoo’s…

Chapter 20 2. What’d I Say (11) Park Jihoon, owner of the jazz club Paradise Lost, stood behind the counter with a stunned expression. “I only told him to bring in more than ten people…” It was a mutter to himself. Just twenty minutes. Excluding the thirty minutes spent moving and preparing the piano, the actual street performance lasted only twenty minutes. He had gone downstairs himself to watch the performance. While watching Minjun perform, Jihoon remembered the jazz clubs…

Chapter 18 2. What’d I Say (9) “So? Did it go well? Huh? What happened? Do you think you passed?” Hayoon, whose exam number had been before mine, was still waiting around after finishing her own test. “Uh, maybe.” “Can’t you usually tell from the professors’ reactions during the Q&A at the end?” “They didn’t ask me anything.” "……" Hayoon’s expression stiffened. “The professors didn’t ask anything?” “Yeah.” Looking anxious, Hayoon…

Chapter 17 2. What’d I Say (8) Professor Kim Seojin crossed his arms and looked at the title of the first song written on Minjun’s application form. ‘The title is Longing.’ As expected, it was probably a love song. One hundred percent of Applied Music applicants chose ballads for their exams. No one crazy enough to perform dance music for an entrance exam existed. If you wanted to fully show off your singing ability, ballads were the best choice. Ninety percent of Korean…
