10 Days (Seungjin)

D-10

Seungmin's POV

It's the first time I'm going to post my first video of me singing cover songs. In my spare time, I like cover songs but I don't have the confidence to perform them or to bring them to the public on my Youtube channel because I know my voice isn't appreciated by the audience, which I hate. Yet I was convinced to post it today on my Youtube channel by my friend, Chan. I've just done it, and I'll see what responses I get from the viewers later.

Hyunjin's POV

Today is my holiday, so I spend my time lying on the bed while watching some Stray Kids funny videos on Youtube. I used to watch their videos when I feel bored or sad, because they look so funny and cute. I feel like all my sadness is being swiped away by watching their videos and I'm going to feel happy again. So I just finished watching a video of theirs. I refresh the search page for other videos of these. I found this one video, after that. It is a cover song. Oh yeah, apart from watching Stray Kids video, I like watching videos from cover songs too. I want to watch it, because they're so damn good singers. I want to sing as well as they do. Besides my passion for dancing, I would also like to learn more about singing and one day want to become a singer-songwriter. So, I just clicked and watched the video. It was a guy who was singing in the video. He did a Day6 cover song You Were Beautiful. God ~~~~~~~ His voice was beautiful and cute when he sang the first verse. I was once like "woooooooow," and I want to hear more. Unfortunately, he's not showing his face. I think his face must be as attractive as his voice. I've been listening to the cover until the end. I fell in love with his voice. I immediately signed up to his channel and searched for his other videos. But sadly, that's the only video he 's got. I hope he'll upload a lot more videos in the future and reveal his face in his next video.

Seungmin's POV

After a few hours of uploading my videos to my channel, I decided to look for the reactions of the viewers to my video.

@leeyongbok dude your voice is so good, sing more

@squirrel_ji i love ur voice sooooo much

@I.N_and_OUT why your voice is so angelic

@changaroo good job mate.

@binbinbin beautiful.... just the way you sing this song to me

@i_know_lee_know i'll hear this video everyday to help me sleep well at night

I'm still sliding down to read a few more reactions. I 'm glad most of them are supporting me and like my video. While I was reading the comments, my eyes suddenly caught up with this one comment.

The comment is, "This is the worst voice I've ever heard. Hey kid, I 'm suggesting that you shouldn't sing anymore. Just do something else than sing. You sing so bad until I feel my ear bleeding when I hear you sing. STOP SING PLEASE."

I feel so angry and sad to read it. I know very well that through countless practices I still lack many aspects in singing to fulfill my dream of being a great singer. But that's too much for me, though. I started to cry and I stopped reading the comments. Then I open up my SNS, and I express my anger and disappointment at my status.

Sometimes I don't understand the people who always give us the wrong comments when they've found our weakness. I know I'm not as good as a professional singer in singing, and I realize my fault, but can't you encourage me to do better than that? Well, I'm so disappointed.

I've posted it. A couple of minutes later, I got a reply. It was from @hhyunjin.

@hhyunjin Some people are going to be trashed. It's fun to talk bad to people and make them suffer.

I feel a little relieved because there are still some people who could understand me. I have replied to that person.

@ksmin I know that's right. I feel like they really do not appreciate me. But, yeah, I'm going to try my best to ignore that and try to do better in the future.

The person replied to me again.

@hhyunjin If you need some comfort, feel free to text me okay. My DM is always open for you. You can talk to me and be open to me whenever you want to. I will try my best to make you feel better:)

Once I read this, all of a sudden my heart feels a little light, and I feel like all my anger and disappointment is now gone. I think this person is good, and I want to know this person better. So later, I decided to text him privately.
