The members cautiously approached the new vocal trainer to see his face. Compared to the previous vocal trainer, who was in her early thirties, this new trainer appeared much older. Even at a glance, he seemed to be in his early forties. Since there were trends in how to sing, agencies had recently been hiring younger trainers.

So, seeing that the new trainer was older than expected, the members were somewhat taken aback.

"Hello."

"Hello."

"Hi-"

The vocal trainer greeted the members, who were greeting him with awkward

expressions, with a smile.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Kang Changsik." His smile was warm and gentle. 'It's exactly the same.

Dojae stared blankly at Kang Changsik.

He was once considered the top singer- songwriter in the Korean Empire. He was also the singer of [The Meaning of You], the first song Dojae sang in South Korea.

Perhaps noticing Dojae's intense gaze, Kang Changsik gave him a slightly puzzled look before continuing his introduction.

"As you might have heard, I will be your vocal teacher starting today." His gentle tone began to ease the members' tense expressions. Although he appeared older, they decided he wasn't the 'strict teacher'

type.

"You must be feeling a bit disappointed and worried because your previous teacher left. I, too, feel the pressure of teaching you with only a year left until your debut." Kang Changsik openly shared his

An object of admiration. He was right in front of him.

And he was in the position of a teacher. How much comfort had Dojae found in his songs? He knew it was a different person, of course.

But his words were similar to those of Kang Changsik from Korean Empire. 'The best voice each of you can bring out...

Kang Changsik from the Korean Empire had said something similar in an interview.

Dojae had a habit of digging deeply whenever he liked a singer or took them

as a role model.

It was the only way for Dojae, who

couldn't attend academies or share his

dreams with others, to nurture his dream alone. Therefore, parts of Kang Changsik's

Interview remained vividly in his mind. [The voice is that person's instrument.

Each instrument produces a different sound.

You can't say one instrument is superior. The piano has its charm, and

the violin has its own charm. We just try to bring out the best piano sound and the most beautiful violin sound. I, too, strive to bring out the best, unique

sound of Kang Changsik.]

That was the kind of interview it was. 'It's fascinating.

Just as the Korean Empire and South Korea had different trajectories, individuals in parallel worlds led
