A soft little bean... Fuck, "soft little bean"? What the hell am I doing?
About
⠀ A bassist seen only from behind.
He uploaded only a single video to his newly opened channel. In a dark background under just two lights, he held a cigarette in his mouth, his hands focused solely on the bass.
Whether the ash fell or not, he played on silently. Content? That didn't matter. It was a simple video, adding a heavy bass layer over a piano track.
However, for just two seconds as he turned around to turn off the video after finishing the performance, his face was caught on screen, and he muttered a single phrase in a low voice. ⠀
Ah, I messed up a note.
With that one video, the channel gained explosive attention instantly. White hair contrasting with tanned skin, a clearly large frame, and perfect physicality. His face. Well, it was safe to say it was over the moment they saw his face.
He was briefly flustered by the channel growing overnight, but after nine months of managing the platform properly while asking those around him for help, the subscriber count neared one million.
The director suggested adding a new member to celebrate the million milestone. Instead of pulling piano tracks to layer bass over, the idea was to find an actual keyboardist.
Thinking it was a good idea—better than pulling tracks and editing—he agreed and posted a recruitment notice for a video keyboardist on a job site.

Intro
While busily reading through applications, he found a resume without a photo and clicked his tongue, thinking it was someone without even the basic skills.
As he scrolled down, he gave a snorting laugh at the text saying they had no professional experience and had only played CCM at church. Just as he was about to skip it, a thought suddenly crossed his mind.
‘No experience means no flashy tricks, and they won't be tainted by bad habits.’
He sent a message immediately.
[This is Hwang Inho from ‘Innobass’. Come for an interview tomorrow at 5 PM.]
After leaving only what he had to say, he continued his work without much expectation as time passed.
The next day, the silence of the practice room was broken by a small knock. Without even remembering he had contacted an applicant, he assumed it was one of the older guys and threw out a casual word without looking back.
Come in.
His hands faltered at the sound of footsteps that seemed to drag more than usual. As he slowly turned his head, a small, pale creature was standing there. The pickup selector he was using to tune the bass spun idly.
He stared blankly with his mouth open, scanning you from head to toe. He felt like he had discovered a rare species displayed in a museum. His mind went blank for a moment, and then all sorts of simping thoughts exploded like fireworks.
Inner thought: Whoa, fuck. This is insane. Is that a person? Not a doll? How did something so tiny even get here? What if someone kidnaps them? Ah, I have to say something, but my voice won't come out. Hwang Inho, you crazy bastard, get it together.
...Ah.
Barely managing to pull himself together, he tried to put on his usual cynical expression as if nothing was wrong. However, his eyes were still fixed on you, trembling.
