Superstar From Age 0

Chapter 529:

The room was quiet.

He could only hear the breathing of Ji-hoo, who was sound asleep, and the faint noises from outside.

He didn\'t feel any urge to make a choice, and his body and mind were as usual.

He closed his mouth and quietly moved his eyes around. He let out a sigh. He had been holding his breath without realizing it.

He looked at the compass. His ability was still activated. He crossed his arms and tilted his head.

“Is it because there are no options?”

Would it have been different if he was choosing a work?

He took out his phone and checked the works that An Da-ho had sent him to read during the trip.

Hmm. Hmm.

He looked at the synopses and lifted his head. Nothing had changed.

“Or does it take some time?”

Well.

It was midnight, so it was hard for anything to happen.

He scratched his cheek and got up from the chair. He turned off the small light that was on and headed to the bed.

He wondered what kind of amazing ability the highest grade would show, but it didn\'t seem easy to find out.

The day they returned to Korea.

Seo-jun and the kids left their luggage at the hotel and went around London for the last time. As the flight time approached, they picked up their luggage and headed to London Heathrow International Airport.

Heathrow International Airport was bustling with tourists arriving and leaving London.

Among those tourists, seo-jun and the kids also checked in their baggage and waited for the flight time.

They were about to board the plane and contacted their parents in Korea, when Seo-jun received a message.

It was Jason Moore.

-Jason: Are you going to Korea today?

[Yes. I\'m waiting for the plane right now.

-Jason: The live recording is done.

-Jason: It will be uploaded to Plus in a week.

Oh.

Plus was easy to access.

Of course, the sprouts would go to a foreign site they didn\'t know, sign up, pay, and watch it anyway.

He immediately contacted An Da-ho. It was 10 p.m. in Korea, but he probably wasn\'t asleep yet.

[Da-ho hyung.

-An Da-ho: Yeah?

He replied right away, as if he was waiting.

[Jason said he’ll upload the live performance to Plus in a week.

-An Da-ho: I see.

-An Da-ho: Do you want to upload the photos now?

[Yes. I still have time before the flight.

-An Da-ho: Okayㅎ

-An Da-ho: Come back safely.

[Yes!

After sending a reply to An Da-ho, he went to [From Sprout], and entered the board [to. Sprout / from. Seo-jun] where only Seo-jun could write. This was where he wrote what he wanted to tell or inform the sprouts.

He also posted a thank-you letter to the fans on his birthday, and posted photos after watching soccer in Spain last time.

Tap tap tap-

He wrote the post with satisfaction. Ji-yoon, who was eating gelato next to him, asked.

“Are you done, seo-jun?”

“Yeah. I wrote everything.”

“Then let\'s go to the departure hall.”

At Ji-hoo\'s words, seo-jun, Ji-yoon, and Mi-na nodded and got up from their seats.

“What time do we arrive?”

“It\'s 11 a.m. It takes 12 hours.”

“We’ll just eat and sleep and eat and sleep.”

The kids laughed at Mi-na\'s words.

***

Song Yu-jung and Lim Ye-na, who were in their final year of college, decided to study for the Korean History Proficiency Test, which was a few days later, at Lim Ye-na\'s house.

“Sambyeolcho.”

“A military force created during the Goryeo military regime. It was divided into Left Byeolcho and Right Byeolcho from Yabyeolcho, and changed to Sambyeolcho with the inclusion of Shinui-gun. They fought against the Mongols until the end.”

“Why are you wrong when you know it well?”

“It\'s hard when it comes out in the text…”

Ughhh-

Song Yu-jung lay down on the desk.

“I forget what I knew when I see the test paper. I can\'t think. I can\'t think!”

“That\'s why you have to study until you remember what page and line it was on. Now, next is cultural history. Which era is this Buddha statue from?”

Lim Ye-na, who always got perfect scores in Korean history, pushed the pictures of similar-looking Buddha statues to Song Yu-jung.

“I hate cultural history the most… Baekje. Seosan Maae Samjonbul.”

“Okay. Next is this picture.”

Song Yu-jung rolled her eyes at the appearance of a ink painting of a mountain, then opened her mouth.

“…Ye-na. I bought some snacks… They’re really delicious!”

“…Okay. Let\'s take a break.”

It was already past 10 p.m. They were planning to study for two more hours, but it seemed okay to have some snacks at this point. Song Yu-jung was excited and headed to the fridge, when their phones rang.

They quickly reached for their phones at the familiar notification.

It was a notice from Cocoa Entertainment, they thought, but it wasn\'t.

“It\'s Seo-jun!”

They saw the letter N(NEW) written next to [to. Sprout / from. Seo-jun] and entered the board with excitement. They saw a new post that had just been uploaded.

[Title: Hello. I\'m Gray Vainy.]

…Huh?

They blinked their eyes at the familiar but somehow unfamiliar name here.

Possible continuation:

They read the post that said:

[Hello, supporters. I\'m a violinist, Gray Vainy.

I happened to participate in a concert as an orchestra member with a great violinist.

(Picture of G. B. in a suit holding a violin)

It\'s the concert of my favorite violinist, Jason Moore. I took a picture with him!

(Picture of Jason Moore and G. B. before going on stage)

Unfortunately, it was such a sudden participation that I couldn\'t inform you before the concert ended, but luckily, there is a live recording that will be uploaded to Plus+ in a week.

(Picture of the orchestra members practicing)

Not only me, but also the orchestra members and Jason Moore worked hard to make it a great concert.

[Title: Hello, this is Gray Vainy.]

Hello, everyone!

I have some exciting news to share with you. I recently participated in a violin concert with the world-renowned violinist Jason Moore in Paris!

It was such an honor and a privilege to play with him and his orchestra. He is a great musician and a wonderful person. He even let me use his violin, which is a priceless Stradivarius!

The concert was recorded live and will be uploaded on Plus soon. I hope you will watch it and enjoy it!

Thank you for your continued support and love. You are the reason why I can play the violin with joy.

I wish you all a healthy and happy summer,

Gray Vainy

“Kim Jong-ho and Lee Ji-seok returned to Korea two weeks ago.”

After finishing his usual movie review, the Moviegoer started to chat about various topics. He talked about Kim Jong-ho and Lee Ji-seok, who had come back from Hollywood two weeks ago.

“The title of the movie they starred in is ONE, and it is scheduled to be released in November this year. Both actors auditioned for their next projects in Hollywood, but the results have not been announced yet. But seeing more and more actors making their way to Hollywood, I wonder if we will soon have the second Korean actor to win an Academy Award.”

-That would be awesome!

-If it\'s released in November, wouldn\'t it be eligible for the Oscars?

-Well, Lee Ji-seok only had a minor role, and Kim Jong-ho was one of the supporting actors, so they might not stand out that much.

-I hope they get more important roles in their next works!

-Moviegoer! Look at this! (link)

The Moviegoer found a comment that just threw a link without any explanation and disappeared.

-What is this? Voice phishing? LOL

-LOL Go check it out. Moviegoer LOL

“Is this some kind of scam? Guys, don\'t click on these things randomly. You can\'t trust any text messages from delivery services, banks, or prosecutors.”

The viewers laughed at the Moviegoer\'s nervous expression as he spoke.

-I\'m broke anyway, so I’ll go and see.

-Wow. You\'re brave!

-Me too, I\'m curious!

-But judging by the address, it seems like a cafe post.

-The prefix is From Sprout?

The Moviegoer\'s eyes widened as he looked at the link address.

“Really? Is it a new post?”

The Moviegoer, who turned off his notifications during his movie review unless it was an urgent call, picked up his phone.

-Yeah, it seems so. A new post.

-I guess Seo-jun wrote it!

-Articles are starting to come out too LOL

-They’re so fast LOL

The Moviegoer moved his mouse with a bright face. He showed the From Sprout board on his monitor so that the viewers could see it.

“You Sprouts probably know this, but for those who don\'t, let me explain. This board is where only actor Seo-jun can post. Of course, anyone who is a Sprout can comment. There\'s a new post here, and it\'s really funny.”

The Moviegoer entered the [to. Sprout / from. Seo-jun] board and showed the new post.

[Title: Hello, this is Gray Vainy.]

-…Suddenly Gray Vainy??

-It\'s been a while since I heard that name!

-But isn\'t Seo-jun on a European trip? Why all of a sudden??

-LOL The content is hilarious LOL

“Yes, the content is really funny too.”

The Moviegoer, like the viewers who had already seen it, clicked on the post with a laugh. The viewers who read the post on the monitor burst into laughter.

-LOL What is this LOL

-Seo-jun LOL He\'s so into his character LOL

-Isn\'t this a movie promotion?

-22 It seems like a movie promotion.

“There\'s hardly any chance that it\'s a movie. Violinist Jason Moore is a real person, you know. Oh, maybe he made a special appearance?”

-A real person LOL

-LOL I knew that, but I was fooled for a moment LOL

-22 I thought it was Over the Rainbow 2 LOL

“But since it says it will be uploaded on Plus, it might be a promotion for a commemorative video. He did the same thing with busking, making it seem like he was really there. Wow. Gray Vainy, always thinking of his sponsors! I have to watch Over the Rainbow tomorrow.”

-I hope he keeps playing the violin happilyㅠㅠㅠ

-Me too, I have to watch the movie tomorrowㅠㅜ

“Shall we find out what kind of work it is? Let\'s go to the website of Whale Studio, the production company of Over the Rainbow.”

-English;;;

-English;;;

The Moviegoer searched around, but there was no information.

-Do they have no intention of promoting at all?

-No articles;; Total security;;;

-All I see is Jason Moore\'s European tour LOLㅠㅠ

“That\'s right. Jason Moore was on a European tour until two weeks ago. The reviews of his concerts are all good. Especially the ones he held in Paris, they were praised a lot.”

The Moviegoer, tired of looking for information that didn\'t exist, took a break and showed the articles about the Paris concerts and translated them for the viewers.

“Especially the last concert was really amazing. There was even a cheer that you rarely see in classical concerts. Oh, there\'s a pamphlet. One of the first violinists who was supposed to play got injured, and violinist Dmitry Vasilyev joined for the first to third concerts in Paris, and for the fourth concert, a violinist named G. B. joined…? …G. B.?”

[…/ G. B. /…]

…Huh?

The Moviegoer and the viewers stopped moving and blinked their eyes at the name that was clearly written on the pamphlet that someone had posted.

“…Is there another violinist named G. B.?”

-…There might be, but… judging by the situation, there seems to be only one G. B. here?

-22 I think so too;;;

-33 Jason Moore+concert+G. B. means…;;;

“…This concert was a real concert?! Not a filming?!”

-…Oh my god…!

-No LOL What is this LOL

-I thought it was a movie or a commemorative video, but it was a real concert LOL

-22 And it was recorded live LOL

-Then that picture too LOL It was taken before the real concert LOL

-There were all kinds of music industry people in the reviews LOL He played in front of them LOL An actor LOL

-And it was the concert with the best reviews LOL

The Moviegoer and the viewers kept laughing in disbelief and slowly calmed down.

Meanwhile, the reporters who had been watching the Moviegoer\'s broadcast contacted Cocoa Entertainment to confirm the facts, and the Cocoa Entertainment 2nd team, who had been waiting, responded.

[Actor Seo-jun, a violinist for Jason Moore\'s concert!]

[Actor Seo-jun, who played the first violin of the orchestra that received rave reviews from world-famous musicians?]

[Still great at violin! Seo-jun, on stage as Gray Vainy!]

[Actor Seo-jun is on a European trip? Participated in a concert in Paris!]

[Gray Vainy, participated in Jason Moore\'s concert!]

-…For real?

=Yes, for real. I confirmed it with Cocoa Entertainment.

=The pamphlet also has G. B. as the name! Gray Vainy!

-Who would have thought that Gray Vainy was here;;;

=22 Lee Seo-jun\'s post was also 100% immersed in Gray Vainy lol

=The last article was totally immersed too lol

-Did he plan this in advance?

=I don\'t think so. There was an article saying that one of the performers had an accident and Dmitry and G. B. replaced him.

=22 He must have been in Europe at the time and could perform.

-Is Lee Seo-jun that good at violin?

=He seems to be good for an amateur… but playing in an orchestra is too much.

=22 There are many violinists in the orchestra. He probably just blended in. He\'s good at acting anyway.

=Don\'t you think the ‘world-famous musicians’ would notice that?

=Exactly. It was a recital with his name on it. Jason Moore wouldn\'t have played so poorly either.

-…Wow. I was there.

=Wow. Really?

=+)I\'m a violin major studying in France. I liked Jason Moore so I got a ticket with difficulty.

=+)I was mesmerized by the performance. The solo and the collaboration were no joke, they gathered only amazing pros, I thought they were awesome! But… Lee Seo-jun was there;;; There was a performer whose main job was acting;;; I can\'t believe it even after reading the articleㅎㄷㄷ

=How well did he play???

=+)It\'s been two weeks and the recital is still the talk of the town. The classical magazines and articles are all about it and the people who saw it are amazed and the people who missed it are regretful.

=+)My friend grabbed my collar. Why didn\'t I go with him. He said he hated Jason Moore… Now that the live recording video is out, he might be somewhat satisfied. But it\'s different from seeing it in person.

=+)Plus, there\'s a rumor that all the orchestra members who were at the recital got offers from famous orchestras. They couldn\'t find G. B., but who would have thought that he was Gray Vainy… Lee Seo-jun…!

=+)Oh! There\'s an article here too. The people who were looking for G. B. will be shocked lol

While the people in Korea and those who saw the last performance in Paris were surprised and astonished by G. B.\'s identity,

“What would you like for your meal? We have bibimbap and pasta.”

“Bibimbap, please.”

Lee Seo-jun, the core of the storm, was eating his meal leisurely.
