An AU where college boy Jungkook meets part time coffee shop employee and part time singer IU/Jieun during one performance in her workplace.
 

I assume this story would be best understood by those who have experience in producing music or in vocal practices, OR those who understand what harmonizing means. In this specific story, IU/Lee Jieun is part of a two-man group for her coffee shop event (she works here too!) in which she harmonizes with the main singer, the soprano, while Jieun remains as the alto, the one who supports the soprano. In most cases, the alto usually sings a lower note than the singer who remains on the melodious part of a song. Sometimes, the alto will sing on a higher note, depending on how the harmony will sound. Singing in second voice isn't easy, actually, it's pretty hard to do. Yes any person can sing a note different from the first voice, but it's hard to control because it has to match, it has to harmonize with the other parts. I'll fix this description soon because I feel like I'm missing out on more details; I tried to make this as short as possible so it'll be easier for others to understand!

So anyways, that's the gist of it! I'm quite disappointed to see that those who actually harmonize with others don't get much credit/acknowledgment because they're usually the ones that don't get noticed + are the reason why they make a song sound so good.

I originally wanted to titled this story as "The Second Voice" but that seemed somewhat bland and creepy. I thought of one of my favorite dramas named, "I can hear your voice," and I thought, okay, maybe I'll go with this (I also figured out that this was one of the titles of her Japanese album so yey) !

Side note:  Before I fell asleep last night, I immediately thought of this concept. I took a choir class back in high school and I was only interested in singing the melody part (soprano) of a song, probably because it was easy. It wasn't until last year (I'm no longer in high school so that was few years back) when I became really into singing the harmony part, or the second part/voice of a song; it's really fun to do because you get to try to sing different notes to make a song harmonious. I hope you all enjoyed this because I thought this was pretty cute, lol.
