< ` nana couldn’t exactly comprehend why she was out here for a second time after spending the day with sungkyung; she had been to several music festivals around the world during her life -- ones that were bigger, better, had more impact than hongdaefest could hope to attain, but she couldn’t deny that the four week fest had it’s own certain charm. it was a nice place to relax during the weekend after a tumultuous week of training ; > ow -- oh gosh, i’m sorry! < ` she says after her shoulder roughly bumps into a girl of smaller stature, hands stretching outwards as if she had done damage to the other ; > i should have watched where i was going. are you alri-- hey! < ` a grin settles upon her lips as a digit points to the purple wristband upon the other’s wrist before pointing to matching one on her own ; > that’s from macaron, right? do you want to get ice cream with me? it’ll be my treat, since i bumped into you and all ... i feel like i owe you or something. < ` a laugh passes through her lips and she grins at the other, hoping that she will say yes now that she’s taken a good look at the girl and realizes who she is ; >

hailey loved making youtube videos. ever since she started the channel, when she was still in the usa, hailey had never stopped. and she loved thinking about it, thinking about songs to cover. of course, her skills were limited. for once, she couldn’t rap. well, at least she couldn’t rap decently. and god forbid she had a bad content for her subscribers. that’s why hailey was always looking for new people to show their talents in front of her camera. today, she had invited gayeon. amazing rapper as she was, she would really add to her performance. hailey decided that it was better for them to record in her parents’ house than in her crowded apartment. the brunette told nina that she was out to record a video while her friend had errands to run herself.
the singer welcomed the other girl, pulling her to her music room. instruments laid everywhere, but today, hailey had decided that she was going to use the original instrumental for the cover. with the lyrics on hands, hailey divided them so every girl would know what to do. rehearsals stole laughs from her lips as she would go out of key or gayeon would forget the lyrics. after some time, they decided they were good to go and hailey turned on the camera to start recording.
the camera showed two girls in the usual setting of hailey’s videos. a guitar and a piano were laying on the background unusually, since they were always on her hands. a bright smile was on her lips as hailey looked to the camera, ready to introduce her friend. “hi guys, this is hailey! today i invited someone special to record with me” she then put her arm around the other girl and squeezed her, the smile never fading from her lips. “meet the amazing gayeon! she’s a great rapper and she’ll make amazing rappers for our cover of u-kiss’s mysterious lady. don’t miss it, keep watching!”
the image changed and the instrumental started, hailey husky voice coming right after, a contrast to the original singer’s high-pitched voice. gayeon’s voice sounded right after her, picking up the pace to start singing her part. while the other girl was rapping, hailey kept nodding in the rhythm, her expression following the lyrics, smiling and then making a cold face. surprise took her face for some time and then she put her hand in her heart, preparing to sing her next part.
알쏭달쏭한 그대란 사람은 깊은 바닷속
(so so 아리송해 baby)
보일 듯 말 듯 한 그대 속은 나를
애타게 하지
그대 뭘 망설이고 있나요
그냥 솔직히 말해줘요
그대 역시 나와 같다는 걸
hailey sang, her tone going higher as the song required. she laid her head on gayeon’s shoulder for some time, but then got up and made a frustrated expression, bringing her hand to her head. she looked like she couldn’t really understand gayeon and it was driving her upset. at the end, she pointed at the other girl and then at herself, like she was telling her to confess her feelings.
mysterious lady, so mysterious lady
(so mysterious)
알다가도 모르겠어 그대 속을
mysterious lady, so mysterious lady
(so mysterious)
솔직하게 그대 맘을 보여줘요
baby 있는 그대로 맘이 원하는 대로우리 솔직해져요 서로
괜한 시간 낭비하지 마요
그대가 느낀 대로 맘이 전하는 대로
내숭 떠는 여자들과는 다르단 걸 믿어요
hailey sang the chorus with her expression going from dreamy when singing mysterious lady and growing confused and confused in the next parts. she touched gayeon’s arm while singing, hand in her chest as she poured emotion to the song. while she was finishing the chorus, it was gayeon’s turn to sing again. not changing a bit and with no shame at all, hailey kept her theatrical performance. she even started moving her torso in some weird dance that made her smile at her own silliness. the song came to the bridge and chorus again, and hailey sang in the same soulful way she was doing. sometimes she would point at gayeon, as she was asking her why she was being like this.
미지근한 사이 친구보단 가깝지만
연인은 아닌
어정쩡한 우리 둘
이것도 저것도 아닌
이제 거릴 좁혀요
그대 닫힌 맘에 문을 열어요
우리 둘만의 무대로 떠나요
mysterious lady, so mysterious lady
(so mysterious)
알다가도 모르겠어 그대 속을
mysterious lady, so mysterious lady
(so mysterious)솔직하게 그대 맘을 보여줘요
baby 있는 그대로 맘이 원하는 대로
우리 솔직해져요 서로괜한 시간 낭비하지 마요
그대가 느낀 대로 맘이 전하는 대로
내숭 떠는 여자들과는 다르단 걸 믿어요
she went for the next part anxiously, like she was frustrated with the whole relationship. and if hailey thought about it, that could refer to a certain relationship she had. but she averted those thoughts, not letting anything make her lose her focus. she hit the high note perfectly, smiling as she did so. the song was in her last chorus and she was snapping her fingers in the rhythm of the song, while her voice was making its way towards the end of the song. when she sang the last word, gayeon surprised her with a peck on the cheek. hailey’s mouth grew to a perfect “o” and her blushing face along with a laugh was the last thing seen in the screen.
