''A Stage That Will Be Talked About for a Long Time'': Ha-eun''s Aspirations Revealed in Front of Star Singers

Articles covering Ha-eun’s appearance on the Infinite Challenge Song Festival.

Most of the articles focused on the fact that this was Ha-eun''s first broadcast as a singer, not an actress.

Although Ha-eun still had a strong image as an actress, there were definitely some skeptical views about her appearing as a singer. After all, the other guests were well-known singers—no questions about it.

However, a few months ago, the 10th album of Doublely, which had dominated the music charts for a while, was re-highlighted, particularly for the three tracks, including the title track Tunnel, which Ha-eun had featured on.

More importantly, the actress who had once portrayed the young Han Yuhwa in Star From the Stars was now singing the OST of the show, and it became quite a topic of discussion.

How could I forget you, Yuhwa?

Am I the only one who prefers this version?

? Yeah, I feel it too.

? Something about the emotional tone? It feels more alive here.

? Definitely more heart-wrenching than the original.

Can you upload the full version of ''My Fate'' on YouTube?

She really sings so beautifully...

In the end, there was no controversy, not even a hint of it.

The label of being cast due to Lee Jun’s connections was also not applied.

It was a situation where Ha-eun had proven herself with sheer talent. She had been fully recognized as someone who deserved the spotlight at the Infinite Challenge Song Festival.

But, the spotlight wasn’t just on Ha-eun as the singer Pinocchio.

“Now even my sins are yours, Kyle. Regret it until the day I die.”

A video showcasing Ha-eun for the Infinite Challenge audience.

Originally, it should have been a reaction video shot directly by Lee Jun and Lee Geon-yeol during Ha-eun’s performance, but due to unavoidable reasons, it was replaced by an official video on the Narae High School YouTube channel, and it had an unexpected impact.

What’s going on at high school festivals these days?

Is this what musicals are like? This is amazing.

? You need to see it in person for the real experience.

? It’s already over, how can I see it now?

What’s with that outfit?

The Empress moment was crazy.

I watched the original novel, and it really feels like this.

Are they going to do a re-run of this later?

? Probably not, since it was for a high school festival, no re-runs.

Strictly speaking, Ha-eun’s Falling Together video aired for less than a minute.

Yet, despite the brief moment, the odd emotional tone conveyed in that instant caused the views on the official Narae High School YouTube channel to skyrocket.

Especially, the video where only Ha-eun’s highlights were clipped and edited even made it onto the trending videos list for a brief moment.

Meanwhile, as old content that had already been publicly revealed was being actively revisited...

Step by step.Swoosh.

The only thing that hinted at the impact of her ad was the voice of Park Hwan-soo on the other end of the phone earlier that morning.

He had said Ha-eun’s Sears ad had achieved something beyond just success. His words ended with a request for continued collaboration.

Well, anyway.

Ha-eun figured that as long as her ad didn’t have any negative consequences, she didn’t need to worry too much about it.

Though, the situation at the moment was already overwhelming enough to make Ha-eun feel a bit of relief.

Time flew by, and it was now the day of the Infinite Challenge Song Festival at the Gocheok Sky Dome.

The location was the waiting room inside the dome.

And the situation she was facing was...

“Do you know how many years it’s been since I’ve been friends with Ha-eun?”

“We’ve even been married. Don’t you think the queen should come out?”

An absolute morning drama.

‘...How did it end up like this?’

In truth, not even a rehearsal had been done yet, let alone makeup or costume changes for the performance.

In front of Ha-eun, the sudden formation of a rivalry between Yoo Seong-jae and Da-yeon didn’t seem to be an issue at first.

Both of them had come to celebrate Ha-eun’s Gocheok Sky Dome performance.

That was the official story, anyway.

However, when Yoo Seong-jae handed Da-yeon an unprepared bouquet and said, "Congratulations on the dome performance," that’s when things began to shift.

More specifically,

“Is it alright to take a photo before the rehearsal later?”

“Ah, yes.”

When Yoo Seong-jae and Ha-eun started setting up for a photo to upload on their Instagram,

Click!Snap!

“...? Da-yeon?”

For some reason, Da-yeon, whose expression had been long and drawn out, suddenly wedged herself next to Ha-eun.

Flustered, Yoo Seong-jae initially took a photo with all three of them, but for some reason, Da-yeon didn’t leave afterward.

‘...Is one of them going to ask who likes who more?’

“You’re not going to choose me over the queen, right, wife?”

“Wife? Who’s calling who a wife?!”

In the end, a sudden love triangle centered around Ha-eun emerged.

Though Yoo Seong-jae was clearly joking, Da-yeon’s frown revealed it was all genuine.

After taking over ten photos with Da-yeon, Ha-eun was finally able to calm her down.

It was ironic, since Ha-eun had met Yoo Seong-jae far fewer times than Da-yeon, but it was Da-yeon who held a grudge against him.

Of course, this impromptu morning drama between the three of them was all captured by the cameras of the Infinite Challenge Song Festival.

In the future, it was going to be published as a story about the royal competition between the crown prince, Lee Hyun, and the queen, Yoon-si.

Anyway, it was time to go for the first rehearsal.

“You two, I’ll see you later!”

Ha-eun quickly fled the waiting room, almost as if escaping.

Though she was a bit concerned that the VIP seats given to Da-yeon and Yoo Seong-jae were next to each other, there was nothing she could do but ask them not to fight.
