Chapter 632
“Ready, action!”
The staff members left the waiting room one by one after finishing the makeup and hair styling.
They knew that Gray Vainy wanted to have some time alone before the concert, afterpleting all the preparations.
“Good luck today.”
“Thank you.”
Gray smiled at the staff members who were leaving and then closed his eyes as if meditating.The remaining documentary crew, George and the staff members, quietly filmed Gray’s appearance, reducing their presence as much as possible.
As the waiting room became silent, Gray Vainy forgot about the cameras that he was paying attention to until a moment ago, and slowly recalled the songs for the uing concert in his head.
He thought about the disappointing parts of the previous concert and how to perform better.
Ever since he first picked up the violin, Gray Vainy had always yed with sincerity.
‘But…’
Buttely…
Gray Vainy opened his eyes. His slightly furrowed brow and lowered ck eyes were clearly captured by the camera.

[The grade of [(Pre)ck and White Chameleon’s ck and White (Intermediate)] is temporarily lowered.]
[(Pre)ck and White Chameleon’s ck and White (Lowest) is activated.]
Although not as much as when he was young, Gray Vainy, who was quietly looking down, looked like his brilliant colors were slowly fading away.
George’s serious expression, watching Gray’s appearance, was also filmed by another camera.
“Hoo.”
Gray let out a light breath and shook off his distracting thoughts. He opened the violin case that was ced in front of him and took out the violin to practice and check it for thest time. ??
He moved the long bow and adjusted each string by pulling or loosening it with the right strength. Gray’s mind became calmer as he touched the violin with his delicate and gentle hands.
He put down the violin and looked at the clock. There was not much time left until the start of the concert.
The staff would soone to tell him that it was time to go on stage.
He always felt nervous before going on stage. He breathed lightly and turned his head. Gray’s eyes widened.
“Ah.”
He found George waving his hand and smiling at him, along with the cameras that were filming him. They were all so good at reducing their presence that he had forgotten that they were filming a documentary.
“Ah.”
Gray Vainy, who had just remembered that the cameras were filming, smiled awkwardly and said as he looked at therge camera lens.
“Okay, cut!”
Seo-jun’s expression, who was smiling awkwardly, changed to a rxed one in an instant. He then headed to where Sarah Roth, the director, was, along with George, to monitor the scene.
Choi Tae-woo, who was watching Seo-jun’s appearance without blinking, sighed inwardly. He didn’t know when, but he had been staring at ‘Gray Vainy’ without realizing it.
‘I shouldn’t do this.’
He was a manager who didn’t even look after his actor and was lost in thought.
‘But he’s acting so well.’
He really thought that there was a violinist Gray Vainy in front of him.
‘When will I get used to Seo-jun’s acting…’
He thought that Ahn Da Ho wouldugh and say that such a day would nevere, and looked at Seo-jun, who was talking with Sarah, the director.
‘It’s Lee Seo-jun now.’
Fortunately, the difference between ‘Gray Vainy’ and ‘Lee Seo-jun’ was so obvious that it was easy to distinguish them.
“We’ll prepare for the next scene!”
At Emily’s shout, the assistant director, the staff members started to move, and Seo-jun, who had stretched lightly, also prepared for the next shoot.
The next scene was simr to the New York shooting scene, where he walked from the waiting room to the stage.
But this time, not his back, but Gray Vainy’s expression was going to be filmed.
“Ready, action!”
At the staff’s call, Gray got up from his seat. And he opened the door of the waiting room with a violin in one hand.
“Gray! I’m looking forward to your wonderful performance today!”
The busy staff members who were running around smiled at Gray. There was no staff member who worked with Gray and didn’t know his kindness.
“Yes. I’ll do my best.”
Gray also smiled and epted their smiles.
The documentary crew who left the waiting room with Gray Vainy filmed his appearance, capturing the vividness of the scene. One of the cameras focused on Gray Vainy’s face.
As he got closer to the stage, the staff members decreased and it became quieter.
Along with the silence, something that he had buried came up. Gray’s smile slowly faded.
The violin in his hand was heavy. The violin that had always been by his side and protected him, felt more burdensome than ever. His arm felt like it was going to fall. He wanted to let it go.
‘But…’
Gray put the violin case on the table. He saw the violin that had always been with him. Gray’s hand gently stroked the violin.
‘But…’
Gray Vainy lifted the violin and the bow with his left hand as he always did. Every movement was gentle.
He walked with the violin in his hand.
He saw the light.
It was the stage.
At the edge of the light, the boundary between light and darkness, Gray stopped for a moment.
He was scared.
He was afraid that his condition would get worse and worse, and he would never be able to stand on the stage again.
He was afraid that his fear would grow and grow, and he would never be able to y the violin again.
He wanted to run away right now, but he couldn’t.
He felt that if he let go of it now, he would never be able to hold the violin again.
A silent silence flowed.
Gray moved his steps again.
He didn’t stop now.
He kept walking and stood alone in the center of the shining stage.
He heard the apuse of the audience.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Gray Vainy bowed and rested his chin on the violin as usual. He moved the long bow.
The violin yed beautiful melodies as Gray thought and moved.
‘Ah.’
He was relieved.
He was able to y.
Gray Vainy, a genius violinist who was swallowing the tears that were about toe out, was now,
He was going through a slump.
***
The next day.
Ahn Da Ho, who had gone to Kim Subin’s interview, arrived in Clevnd, Ohio. Ahn Da Ho headed straight to the filming site.
“/Director Ahn!/”
Choi Tae-woo, who was nervous all day yesterday, sighed with relief when he saw Ahn Da Ho arrive. He then reported what happened yesterday. Since Seo-jun was in makeup, he received the report outside.
“/The filming went well yesterday. Today we are going to shoot the concert scene, and Seo-jun’s condition is fine. He had a good breakfast too./”
He also talked about the filming time and rest time, just like the schedule that Ahn Da Ho showed him as a reference. Ahn Da Ho nodded.
“/You did well./”
“/Thank you!/”
Choi Tae-woo smiled brightly at the praise of his boss.
A littleter.
The makeup staff came out and Ahn Da Ho and Choi Tae-woo went inside. Seo-jun, who was sitting in the same way as yesterday, saw Ahn Da Ho and smiled brightly.
“/Da Ho hyung! When did youe?/”
“/I just arrived./”
Ahn Da Ho also smiled and said.
“/Did the interview go well?/”
“/Yeah. Subin did well./”
As expected of my brother.
Seo-junughed like a proud brother.
“/When will the articlee out?/”
“/I asked them to upload it as soon as possible./”
Ahn Da Ho continued.
“/Since he is young and there will be a lot of talk, now that he won the first ce in the New York String Instrument Competition, it’s the best timing./”
There was nothing better than a visible award history to solve the doubts of people who questioned Kim Subin’s skills. Besides, it was an internationalpetition.
Seo-jun nodded at Ahn Da Ho’s words.
“/Will it be tranted and posted in Korea right away?/”
“/Probably. Don’t worry, Cocoa Entertainment will take care of that./”
“/Yes, thank you. Da Ho hyung./”
With the support of Cocoa Entertainment and the ability that Subin told him before he parted, he felt that he didn’t have to worry about Subin anymore.

“Wow… I can’t believe it…”
“It was really Over the Rainbow 2 filming!”
People who had done extra work in New York and heard ‘Gray Vainy’s performance’ were a little excited, but they didn’t know it was really [Over the Rainbow 2] filming. They sat down in the audience seats with anticipation.
They had ironed and worn the suits that were required for the extra application.
“It feels like I’m really at a concert wearing this.”
“Yeah.”
They were thrilled to participate in the filming of [Over the Rainbow 2], which was the center of attention. They wanted to brag that they were there when the movie came out.
“Please be quiet during the filming!”
“When we raise the apuse sign, please p!”
It was not easy to give instructions to the extras in arge concert hall, but the staff handled it skillfully.
“We will start filming!”
With that, the audience seats darkened.
People were confused whether they came as extras or as audiences. They waited for him to appear on the stage with a trembling heart.
“Ready, action!”
The stage lights came on.
And a man with a violin appeared from the side of the stage.
Everyone swallowed the shouts of ‘Gray Vainy’ and ‘Seo-jun Lee’ that seemed toe out without knowing. They followed the staff’s instructions and sent a loud apuse. It was a loud sound that seemed to make the concert hall fly away.
Gray Vainy, who stood under the spotlight, bowed and rested his chin on the violin. And soon the sweet performance began.
It was not [Over the Rainbow] or [Gray’s Violin Performance, NO.1], or the newlyposed [Good Morning], but a general ssical piece, but it was enough to satisfy them.
It was a performance that made them feel like they would love ssical music from now on.
The audience, who sent sincere apuse regardless of the staff’s signal, did not know.
That ‘Gray Vainy’ was in a slump right now.
His genius was so overwhelming that no one noticed.
***
“His performance is still brilliant. He must be acting now. The Gray in a slump.”
“I guess so. I have no idea.”
Catherine and Paul’s whispers reached Ahn Da Ho’s ears.
“What if Jun was in that situation? Would you be able to tell?”
“…It would be hard. I think I wouldn’t notice if he acted like nothing was wrong.”
Ahn Da Ho looked at ‘Gray Vainy’ on the stage.
A genius violinist who gave a brilliant performance in the midst of hardships that no one knew.
That was also what Ahn Da Ho was worried about.
Seo-jun’s talent was so great that he thought he wouldn’t notice his troubles if he hid them thoroughly. Then he wouldn’t be able to understand or find a way to help him.
‘Sometimes people who seem to be doing well make dangerous choices.’
Seeing Seo-jun’s passion for acting, it was strange not to worry about what he would do if he had a slump.
‘I have to prevent that from happening.’
Ahn Da Ho hoped that Seo-jun would continue to enjoy and be happy with his acting activities.
