In this life, from a child role (157),
a few days later, Soo-hyeon faced an unexpected result.
I received a call that I had finally been accepted for the role of ‘Tilo’ in ‘Snowflake Girl’.
“You practiced hard and eventually debuted as a voice actor.”
“Teacher Park Ji-su helped me a lot.”
Su-hyeon gave the credit for passing the exam to Ji-soo.
Aside from the audition, Suhyun learned a lot from her.
It was a skill needed not only for voice actors but also for actors, so it felt as rewarding as the difficult time.
‘In a way, the sense of accomplishment I got from practicing rather than auditioning… I liked it so much that it cooled off.’
Nicholas, who gave her a warm hug, continued to praise her afterwards.
He boasted of consistently high tension, such as saying that the image of ‘Tilo’ suits you better than Sara, and that he was happy to meet a voice actor who is in sync with him.
The top decision-maker showed such behavior, but the results were not expected.
‘If that hadn’t happened, it might have been unfair.’
Su-hyeon realized once again that knowing the future, even vaguely, was a great advantage.
I was a little disappointed that I wasn’t interested in movies or dramas until I started considering acting.
“It’s not completely over.”
“Can’t we just go on the recording day now?”
“no. “It’s not an audition, but there’s one more test left.”
“…?”
“The genre of this animation is a musical.”
“ah.”
Su-hyeon, who was looking at Sang-il blankly, remembered why I fell in love with ‘Snowflake Girl’.
‘Snowflake Girl’, like many of Dechamp’s works, was made into a musical.
The characters expressed their feelings and situations through songs, and meaningful foreshadowing was often included in the song lyrics.
“Then I guess I’ll have to take a singing test.”
“yes. “As an actor, you learn everything quickly, so I think you’ll be able to do it on time if you do well.”
“Hmm…”
Su-hyeon, who was born in Mangdol, laughed at the manager’s words, hiding her complicated feelings.
Even though his future was erased when he debuted as an actor, he has made a living by dancing and singing as a career for four years.
Just as the Illusion choreography was performed with ease, the song was also not difficult.
‘It’s true that I need some time to get used to it again, but I’ve been honing my sense of pitch.’
Even after filming ‘Shadow Road’, Soohyun continued practicing the violin.
Just because I was good at playing didn’t mean I was good at singing, but my musical skills were better than before my regression.
‘After all, we don’t do arts and physical education for no reason when we’re young.’
Aside from her memories, Su-hyeon’s body was young.
The speed at which he learned and became familiar with something was incomparably faster than that of adults, and the basics he had honed since the age of five gave wings to his ability to adapt.
‘Of course, even if that’s the case, the limit doesn’t change much… Is it about going from an ordinary person to a brilliant person?’
Of course, just because your body is younger doesn’t mean you have talent that wasn’t there before.
He had taken several classes since joining Crown, but they always ended with similar endings.
All fields except acting are growing rapidly and quickly reaching limits.
As I continued to practice my violin, I gradually improved, but compared to the beginning, the level of improvement was significantly lower.
‘If you tell me to die, how can I go to music school and barely even think about becoming a professional… It’s a very ambiguous talent.’
Even during her idol days, Suhyun’s group learned a lot to make up for her lack of skills.
Unusual musical instrument magic, tap dancing, b-boying, etc.
Every time he learned something useful for performance, he showed faster growth than the other members, and after about 4 months, he overtook most of them.
‘The growth rate is fast, but the threshold is low. The song was okay. For an ordinary person, he sings well, but for an idol, should I say he’s average? ‘I’m really lucky that I have talent for acting.’
Su-hyeon, who was vaguely reflecting on her own skills, stopped Sang-il from scheduling a singing class.
Vocal training is good, but I didn’t want to overwork my neck now that I’m in the transition period.
“I don’t like my brother’s singing because it has to cover a variety of vocal ranges. Besides, if you go up to a high note, you have to overdo it.”
“There is no guarantee that there will be a high-pitched part. “In some ways, I’m giving up half of my role, but isn’t that regrettable?”
“If you overdo it during the transformation period, your voice will get very damaged… Isn’t that why you excluded the singing part, Chaemin?”
“That’s true, but…”
If I had aimed for a singing part, I would have taken voice acting classes and also received vocal training.
However, Chaemin only introduced Jisoo to Suhyeon.
It was not Chaemin’s style to pursue future possibilities for an unreasonable career at a young age.
“Still, it’s a shame that the producer at headquarters showed such favor.”
The reason Sang-il brought up the topic that led to his decision was because of Nicholas’ attitude.
He said that Soo-hyun matched the image of ‘Tilo’ and continued to contact her even after the audition was over.
Since the top decision-maker openly shows his favoritism, if he shows a little bit of decent skill, he may be able to kill two birds with one stone.
Since it was a situation where decent results could be achieved with little effort, it was natural for me to be greedy as a manager.
“I want to be greedy only in the areas that I can excel at. “I don’t think I want to sing in the current state, even if the transformation period has passed.”
Su-hyeon firmly drew a line and prevented Sang-il’s lingering feelings.
He had forgotten that it was a musical, but he also had similar thoughts while looking at Nicholas’ attitude.
If you show favor like that, you might be able to get better results or lead the character in a direction that is advantageous to you.
In the midst of such concerns, Su-hyeon chose a work.
‘With movies and dramas, things can be resolved through communication, but with dubbing, it’s not like you can redraw the movements. No, it might be possible, but I’m not at that level… but it’s a bit of a stretch to bring the work down to my level.’
Even if you enter a good work, it is of no use if the work fails.
Suhyun, a novice voice actor, refrained from taking risks.
If you were in someone else’s territory, it was best to just do your job well.
* * *
Separate from class, Suhyeon did not refuse the singing test.
I had no intention of taking on the singing role, but it was a shame that I wasted the opportunity to sing in front of others for the first time in a long time.
‘Let’s not overdo it.’
He stroked his neck once and looked at Changseok.
I was in good condition today.
“This is the original song.”
Suhyun listened to the English lyrics and sounds coming through the headphones.
A familiar song came to me happily in my faded memories.
‘Oh, I remember it when I heard it. It’s frustrating to see Rune turn into a snowflake fairy and disappear. I liked the sad video here.’
Suhyeon was impressed by Sarah’s skills while listening to her clear voice.
He was good at voice acting and singing, so America was really big.
“This is your guide song.”
After Sarah’s song ended, Changseok played a song rewritten in Korean.
The sense of keeping the feel of the original song while matching the shape of the character’s mouth was outstanding.
‘When I listen to it like this, my Korean is quite good…’
Suhyeon, who had only heard the original song, stared at the notes and lyrics drawn on the sheet music.
It was a shame that some of the word play in the original song was cut out, but other than that, there were no flaws.
“Shall we try recording it first?”
“yes.”
After checking the music, Suhyun entered the studio beyond the glass.
Even though we only had to go through one door, the recording studio surrounded by a soundproof wall was completely quiet.
―You can stand in front of the microphone wearing headphones and sing.
Following Changseok’s instructions, Suhyun put her mouth close to the microphone and read the music.
The practice time was extremely short, but it was not a problem for him as he relaxed.
“No, no, don’t go, Rune.”
As the song played, Suhyun shouted the introductory line and gasped softly.
The gloomy tone exploded at some point.
“I didn’t want it to end like this, but there’s something I couldn’t tell you.”
The music, which was low and slow like the blues, gradually became faster and more passionate as ‘Tilo’s emotions became more intense.
A feeling of emptiness due to lack of understanding of the situation, a feeling of guilt for saying something harsh while angry, a resentment toward the foolish Rune who swallowed my feelings inside until she became a snowflake fairy and disappeared…
But in the end, she must admit that it was her fault and be sad. The inevitable situation was contained in a short 3-minute song.
‘It’s not just a bowl of seolleongtang, it’s very complicated.’
‘Tilo’, the son of a poor family, likes ‘Rune’, the daughter of a wealthy family, but has a strange sense of inferiority and anger.
He felt envious of her kindness and became increasingly harsh towards Rune, who only smiled instead of getting angry.
The younger sister, ‘Milli’, stood on ‘Rune’s side and scolded ‘Tilo’ for doing so, but despite her younger sister’s reaction, ‘Tilo’ directly bullied ‘Rune’ for not expressing her opinion.
And on Christmas day, ‘Tilo’ scratched her heart with a remark that was difficult for ‘Lune’ to laugh at.
Even though they love each other, they have created an emotional rift that is difficult to recover from.
In the end, on Christmas, which should be full of joy, ‘Rune’ became a snowflake fairy and was taken to the kingdom of the ‘Winter Queen’.
‘Actually, Tilo wanted Rune to tell him that he didn’t like it instead of putting up with it, but their personalities didn’t match…’
‘Rune’ was a child who would endure to the limit for the person he liked.
On the other hand, ‘Tilo’ thought that if he liked something, he should know how to show it all.
The differences between the perpetrator and the victim resulted in irreversible consequences.
‘Snowflake Fairy. ‘The name is really pretty.’
In the worldview of ‘Snowflake Girl’, the snowflake fairy was a descendant of the ‘Winter Queen’, a bitter witch who stays in cold places all year round.
They were originally human, but the moment their hearts grew cold, they were kidnapped by the ‘Winter Queen’ and were tied up forever.
Those who have to stay by the Winter Queen forever and serve her, forgetting the people they loved, the people they hated, the happy and the painful memories.
At dawn the day after she was kidnapped, ‘Tilo’ went on a journey to save ‘Rune’, as she lost her memories of her human days and was reborn as a perfect fairy.
It was the introduction to the animation.
“Ah-ah-I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it. I didn’t mean it….”
Suhyun sang while recalling the heart of ‘Tilo’ who was in despair.
The language above the melody is more exaggerated and emotional than ordinary lines.
Because the melody set the mood, the audience’s immersion was higher.
‘Paying attention to the delivery of the lyrics…’
Although it was her first attempt, Suhyun was careful about the lyrics and beat to avoid making mistakes.
The best way to save time was to show everything you wanted to show at once.
“I will find you again. “I want to save you from the hands of the Winter Queen beyond.”
‘Tilo’ decided on a goal after going through despair and regret.
Soohyun continued singing with the bright eyes of ‘Tilo’ on screen engraved in her head.
It was quite difficult as I went from dazed and frustrated to making up my mind in just 3 minutes.
“I want to tell you what I couldn’t say.”
Suhyun finished the song while listening to the melody that had suddenly changed into a bright tune.
As he sang properly for the first time in a long time, a brief lingering feeling came over him.
* * *
“Sing it well.”
Nicholas, who was listening to Soohyun’s song in the control room, nodded with his arms crossed.
Kang Soo-hyun, the voice actor for ‘Tilo’ whom he likes, boasted considerable skills despite his young age.
“My sweet angel Yogi Inne.”
“Even if you speak in English….”
“No, no, I can speak well together.”
Nicholas, who ignored the staff’s request and spoke as if he were a bit lacking, relaxed his arms and clapped when Soohyun’s song ended.
The applause was faint, but his feelings were well conveyed.
[It’s really amazing that he can convey the situation so well without even having seen the video.]
His eyes sparkled like a child who received a new toy.
It was a good thing I came to Korea in person rather than just receiving the results.
