    YOUTUBE - @JSGCOVERS UPLOADED A NEW VIDEO      WHISPER COVER - BY JEONG SAGANG & LEE HWITAEK

@rkhtaek

all the time they had spent practising had finally come down to this moment. one performance the two of them were going to put on in the middle of hongdae to later be uploaded to youtube. they had managed to bribe someone with food to hold the camera for them as sagang made some last minute checks to the equipment they had set up. 

surprisingly, sagang was even nervous about any of this. it was not the first time he had sung in front of a crowd, though the previous times had been in his singing lessons and it was just his classmates. and that was singing and not rapping, so he never really too it seriously to begin with. but this was a little different, complete strangers and he was actually going to be taking the rap parts in this particular song and leaving all the singing to hwitaek. but the teenager was still not nervous about any of this and was actually rather excited to get started. 

“make sure you get good shots of both of us,” he made sure to tell their designated cameraman for this performance, “i can’t upload it if the camerawork is rubbish. and you won’t get paid.” and as they were paying with lunch afterwards, he did hope that was incentive enough to actually do a good job with the filming. sure, a tripod set up in front of them would probably do it better, but they had wanted more dynamic shots as they were performing. 

he’d actually put more effort into practising for this that he thought he would. the song was something he knew basically off by heart before that, so he thought he would just go over it a couple of times. but he’d actually done extra practice and even asked his vocal coach to help him with a couple of things, so he was quite sure this was going to go well just so long as hwitaek had also practised. 

“you ready, then,” he asked the older, a grin on his face as he looked over towards him, “we got this in the bag, yeah?” they didn’t even have to worry about any dancing as sagang had decided that he couldn’t be bothered to learn the choreo for the song. and maybe that meant he was lazy, but he didn’t really care. he didn’t think they needed any dancing to put on a good performance and it meant that people were going to pay more attention to their voices than what their limbs might be doing. 

once hwitaek was good to go, sagang leaned over and started up the music they had already set up, letting the older take the lead as the vocal was the first part of the song, anyway. 

especially more today time seems to freeze when i see you i can’t handle you, it transcends narcissism my instincts have already gone up i try to calm down my excited heart but it breaks down calm down down down my body is slowing down right now now no limit limit, what is your limit? tell me ahead of time everything has levels but you’ve erased that process

you are my song, ye baby i’m different from the other wolves who only look for you at night i look for you every moment of every day girl

the words simply flowed out of his mouth in a well practised manner, he wasn’t thinking all too hard about it, just making sure he was keeping up with the beat of the music in the background and he was actually pronouncing everything correctly. his vocal coach had said multiple times that he had a tendency to go too fast and stumble over his words and pronunciation. and it was something he was trying to fix. 

hwitaek was in charge of the chorus of the song as well. not that sagang really minded, he wanted nothing to do with the vocal parts as he was really not a singer. and he didn’t really think that it made any difference. 

i can use both arms and legs but i can’t fully express i don’t care about a party filled with losers my focus is on you chillin’ chillin’ we need a secret this is something that happens on a screen i’m feelin’ like a gosling i’m sure of this feeling love you love you love you love you love you really love you i can’t figure you out but my head is already there i hope at least half of my predictions will be the answer, i hope this night connects us we can be quiet cause i think this is strangely more fun

the second verse came out just as easily as the first for him and he felt as though he was really getting into things. it felt good to sing in front of a crowd and there were quite a few people who had stopped on their commutes to stand there and watch the two of them perform this song. not that sagang was letting that bother him in the slightest. it was always better just to pretend you were alone in your bedroom and there was no one there to judge you and you didn’t need to impress anyone but yourself. 

of course, impressing a crowd was still important, especially as all this was being filmed to upload to youtube, but he wasn’t trying that hard to show off. showing off was just a recipe for disaster in the long run and he didn’t want to ruin things. 

whisper yeah tell me tell me your love whisper Yeah i can even hear your breath, love whisper yeah tell me tell me your love whisper yeah i can even touch your voice, real love

the song was coming to an end now and sagang was simply trying to enjoy himself as much as possible while it lasted. there was always a different energy which came with performing in front of people instead of just performing by yourself in front of a camera. the crowd watching was helping to hype him up as they headed towards the closing segments of the song. 

you don’t care about the meaning of beauty but you just show yourself to me i’ve already gone crazy but you drive me crazy again

it was harder to try and rap steady over the sound of someone else’s voice, sagang just trying to concentrate on what he was saying instead of what hwitaek was singing at the moment. he very nearly mixed up a couple of words in a slip on concentration, but was quick to pick up on it and cover it up with a smile towards the camera currently filming them. 

at this point there was more than just the one they were using. multiple phones had come out from the crowd and he suspected clips of this might end up on snap chat or instagram the moment they were done. or maybe they would just be saved to the camera roll and then forgotten about. not that sagang minded any of those things happening, it was more exposure for him and that was always going to be a good thing. 

but now it was the closing, his last couple of repeated lines from earlier to bring everything to an end. 

whisper yeah tell me tell me your love whisper Yeah i can even hear your breath, love whisper yeah tell me tell me your love whisper yeah i can even touch your voice, real love

he held the last note for just a little longer than normal, a small way to draw it out for a moment, but all good things did have to come to an end eventually. he held a small pose for a moment, basking in the applause they were getting from their small gathered crowd before eventually gesturing for their cameraman to cut off the recording.

{ / ✉ to “tinkerbell” } did you like your gift? { / ✉ to “tinkerbell” } sorry i didn't give it to you in person. i've been in a rush for midterms. i finally have a break.

❪ ✉ ❫ hui ♡ ━━

━ you have to know i loved it!━ LOVE, not loved. i love it !━ i put it on almost as soon as i opened the box, i just had to hehe━ i figured school was a reason you might’ve not had time, but im glad━ it made my day when i was told it was waiting for me

[rkiny]

he was late. very late, but he had to drop it off before it was too late and he was too embarrassed to actually give it to nayeon, but as long as she got it, that was what mattered. so he left the small blue box at with another waitress at the restaurant when she said nayeon was in the back. he told the waitress to wait until he was gone.

in the box was a small note that simply said, ‘it’s never too late to start again, nayeon. i’ll cheer you on. happy birthday. hui.’ the actual gift was a gold bracelet with a treble clef on it. hopefully, she liked it.

( IMAGE ).

though she’d been a little sad when he hadn’t shown up or sent her a message, nayeon hadn’t wanted to get too hung up over it. she knew he had his own life, his own plans and schedules to keep him busy. she also knew that, if he did really forget, he didn’t mean it. no, she wouldn’t have held it against him if he had, she couldn’t, but that wouldn’t stop the bubbling disappointment she felt going into work the next day without a word from him. yet, her heart has a turn, and there’s pure joy coursing through her as she comes back from her break to see something waiting for her ( from him, no less ).

she turns the box in her hands for a moment, a soft grin spreading over her lips, and there’s warmth that washes over her at the words he had written. “it’s never too late...” she whispers to herself as she reads it again, a soft sigh leaving her.

opening the box, the gift ( a bracelet ) leaves her with a cheek hurting smile, and it immediately finds its home on her wrist. it was beautiful— she loved it. she would be sure to thank him once she saw him.

Flyer #2

@rkhtaek

First one done, only 7 flyers to go. Even though she didn't hand it out to a stranger, her mission felt easier now. Before that feeling could disappear, the girl quickly turned to the next person with her usual smile.

"Hello! Could I interest you in a flyer?" She said more awkwardly than she realised at first, but now the words were already out.

But the boy looked like he might be around her age and seemed nice enough - though she thought that of almost everyone, even if she didn't know that herself - so she had hopes to finish her task at least somewhat quickly. Hopefully.

⌛ Long Time No See | Feat. Hwitaek

It was a pretty normal day, like the days that Bora was used to a year ago before she had left for the states. She got up early to exercise, returned home from her little jog to shower, then got ready to head out for the day. She didn’t do much besides walk around and admire her old home city, smiling as she watched others walk past and even occasionally went into a few shops to do a little bit of shopping here and there.

Bora had just exited the coffee shop when she turned to head to the next building when she bumped into someone, almost spilling her cold coffee drink all over her and the other person. She was glad to have such quick reflexes and when she finally became stable again on her feet she looked up. “I’m so so-” She pauses mid-sentence as she sees the familiar face of the male she had known for quite a few years. “Hui?” She asks, staring at his face before she actually smiles wide.

She hadn’t seen him in a while and it was honestly nice to see him after so long. “I can’t believe I’m actually bumping into you like this! It’s been awhile hasn’t it?” She’s actually a little too happy to see the male but she doesn’t care, she had always enjoyed his presence, remembering the first time that the two had actually met, back when him and his sister had been in an orphanage that she had constantly volunteered at, and still did volunteer at even now.

The saddest thing however was not seeing his sister next to him like back then. After she had run away it honestly had broken Bora’s heart, especially when she saw how Hui had been so messed up about the whole thing. She sighed softly at the thought before shaking it out of her head and smiling at him again.

{ let’s collab ` }

{ w / @rkjsg } 

  with growing youtube channels, it was natural for hwitaek and sagang to eventually decide to work on a piece. for one, hwitaek loved producing things, whether it was writing music, editing music or even making a music video. hwitaek liked to get his hands on everything. if he could sing as well, that was even better.

   so he made the offer to sagang, another young kid he ‘adopted’. the kid was sweet and positive, so naturally, he decided to take the other under his wing in a way. sagang was still young and had a lot of growing to do and hwitaek was more than happy to watch him grow. 

   “okay, so whisper by vixx lr. i really like this song. i think i can find us a spot in hongdae to perform it. i got this one spot i go to. it’s pretty popular, but still a little unknown still,” hwitaek has his notebook full of random ideas he had and he had a crisp new page titled with the song choice. he didn’t want to hog this whole thing since it was between the both of them, but weirdly enough, he was big on planning. despite how weird people thought he was, he liked to think he could be a pretty good leader if he was in a group. “so what ideas did you have?”
