From the Universe (3)

“If there is any problem with the song...”

In response to Do-wook’s question, Jeong Yoon-gi roughly brushed his bangs.

‘Go low go high’ was a song that had already been recorded and included in the album. As it is a separate music release, it will undergo some remixing, but if you think of it as a follow-up song, all you have to do is prepare the choreography and release it. The story was that it was already complete.

“I guess it’s because of you.”

“Um... me?”

Dowook pointed to himself and asked back.

The other members stiffened and tensed as Jeong Yoon-gi pointed out Do-wook.

‘Is it a fight!’

‘Should I... stop him?’

‘Do-wook, Yoongi-hyung, whose side should I take?’

‘If only... we could get along well...’

Many thoughts flashed through the minds of the remaining members. In fact, even though they were active for a long time, the KK members did not have a single fight.

Of course, there were times when we bickered when we were tired and couldn’t sleep, and even if it wasn’t a situation like that, we couldn’t help but bicker as men of the same age live together 24 hours a day, but there was never a serious disagreement.

This was because the pillars of Jeong Yoon-gi and Do-wook were in perfect harmony.

Although the positions of leaders Jeong Yoon-gi and Do-wook actually overlapped somewhat, Jeong Yoon-gi and Do-wook respected each other and played their respective roles.

Jung Yoon-gi showed himself as a leader and big brother by scolding the members whenever they had behavioral problems, such as neglecting practice or being lazy.

Dowook was the person who led the musical side of KK. As such, it was Jeong Yoon-ki who completely followed Do-wook’s opinions regarding activity plans and musical direction. The same was true for other members.

In fact, Do-wook never expressed an opinion that could be opposed.

However, Jeong Yoon-gi pointed out that Do-wook was the problem.

“okay. you. “You.”

***

Fortunately and naturally, the fight between Jung Yoon-gi and Do-wook did not occur.

Jung Yoon-gi, who returned to the dorm, brought a piece of paper printed with the lyrics he wrote during the recording of ‘Go low go high’ to Do-wook’s room and was checking the parts with a pen.

“From here to here.”

“yes.”

“Two lines like this.”

Dowook nodded. The part he sang was correct.

Jung Yoon-gi started checking other members’ parts as well. ‘Go low go high’ was also a song for which Dowook distributed the parts after consultation with composer Jeong Yoon-ki.

If you look for the lyrics organized by part, you will probably find them in the room, but Jung Yoon-gi was checking them with such a serious expression that Do-wook could not speak and just watched what Jung Yoon-gi was doing.

‘Is there a problem with the part?’

Dowook thought. However, I remember it proceeding smoothly without any noise at the time.

“This is all me and Won’s rap part... Don’t you think this is Hyungseo and Jihoon’s part?”

“yes that’s right.”

“Taehyung has a part here.”

“Ah... Taehyung’s part... won’t it be too much for filming a music video?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Whether domestically or internationally, you are the most popular member of KK and you are also the most well-known member, so does it make sense for Dowook to only show up in passing? uh? Okay, let’s say the other members are also famous in Korea. “Overseas, they say you’re a movie or a drama, so they get a lot of attention.”

Jeong Yoon-gi spoke openly. I didn’t necessarily say who came in first place, but it was just a fact. It’s been that way since I debuted, so it’s no longer a matter of pride.

“Yes, we are a team, so we all do this together. I like it and am thankful that you are willing to trust and leave it to the members. Dowook.”

“Yes...”

“If now is the time to attack more, as you said, I don’t think there is any need to save resources. “You are this team’s greatest resource.”

Do-wook and Jeong Yoon-gi said this and had nothing more to say in response. What Jeong Yoon-gi said definitely made sense. What Dowook wanted to show through ‘Go low Go high’ was the skills of rappers and the color of KK’s hip-hop music.

As I was only thinking about that, and as a producer, I was focusing on the other members, I felt like I was forgetting about myself as an important member.

“But we can shorten the rap part...”

Dowook trailed off. However, not only were there not many other vocal parts, it was also not possible to bring in other members’ parts.

‘The length of the song is not long, so should I lengthen it a little... No, then the balance of the entire song may be lost.’

As Do-wook was struggling, Jeong Yoon-gi also showed a worried expression.

“Hmm...”

For a moment, Dowook’s room was filled with silence. Then, Jung Yoon-gi, who was laughing, said half jokingly and half seriously.

“Do you want to rap?”

“Yes?!”

It was a very sudden and embarrassing story. Even Do-wook, who was not always surprised, was surprised and made a loud noise.

Jung Yoongi paid no heed to it, just quietly looked at the paper with the lyrics written on it and pointed out a part with a pen.

“Okay, that will do! “This part right here!”

What Jeong Yoon-gi pointed out was the hook section where Kim Won and Jeong Yoon-gi repeat the same lyrics as if they were exchanging them.

“I chose a rap song because my brothers were good at it, but I tried to rap... No, you know I’ve never rapped before.”

“Is this place good? It’s intense here! It’s not easy either. “Give it a try.”

“Hyung......”

“Really. Just give it a try. “Kids who are good at singing are also good at rapping.”

This was the case with many of the trainees that Jung Yoon-gi saw.

Dowook said he would definitely support the vocal part from the beginning, and since his debut was decided not long after joining, he did not take rap classes separately, but originally, most trainees took both vocal classes and rap classes to find their own parts.

At that time, trainees who were good at singing could rap at least halfway, perhaps because they had an excellent sense of rhythm.

As Jeong Yoon-gi continued to work, Do-wook had no choice but to agree. I sighed and remembered the rap that Jung Yoon-ki said. I remembered it right away because I had already listened to it dozens of times during the recording.

Do-wook’s idea was that after listening to Do-wook’s poor rap, Jung Yoon-ki’s idea of having Do-wook sing the rap part would be resolved immediately.

“When they go low we go high we go the highest ever That’s where I stand.”

Dowook bobbed his head and rapped to the beat.

The lyrics, ‘When they go low we go high.’ were taken from a speech by the First Lady of the United States. Kim Won said it was a speech that left a deep impression on him.

As it quoted such a speech, ‘Go low go high’ was a song that revealed the resolute will to maintain one’s dignity until the end, even if someone starts a muddy fight to bring one down.

It was definitely the central lyric of the song and a weighty part.

“uh?”

“Uh...”

Do-wook and Jeong Yoon-gi’s eyes met in surprise.
