If you don’t remember some parts of the novel, <<—Click Here—>>
***
Gray’s Mom, George’s family, and Rebecca’s family all gathered at the busking.
The first song of the show was Vivaldi’s Spring- The Four Seasons.
Gray hope everyone have a warm and lively spring.
Everyone of the movie theater who knew the story so far was moved to tears by Gray’s clumsy but beautiful violin play.
Shortly after, a video of the three children was uploaded to the crowdfunding site soon others saw it and left comments.
-I hope I’ll be of help to your journey as a violinist!
-I think you need to buy a violin first.
-It’s little, but I hope it helps. 🙂
Next scene showed a high school student watching on his cell phone, a child watching with his mother, a patient who watched the video on a hospital computer, and the man who lived upstairs in the same apartment as Gray. Everyone supported Gray by watching the video and didn’t forget to donate.
With increasing donations and comments, Gray suddenly thought of something.
“George, can I know the names of the sponsors?”
“Yes, because this is like supporting an artist set up it is made with name and address available. In case the one they supported wants to send some token or merch.”
“Then…”
Gray spoke with glistening eyes like when he played the violin.
“Later, I don’t know when, we can invite them!”
“……Invite?”
George and Rebecca were confused at what Gray is pertaining to.
“Yes. If I keep playing the violin, I might have a concert too in the future.”
Gray was already dreaming of a distant future. Concert.
Rebecca and George smiled at the sight.
“I’d like to invite those who supported me.”
“That’s cool! That’s great. Let’s do it!”
“I don’t know when everything will happen though.”
George went into the crowdfunding site and looked at the sponsors’ records.
The detailed address did not appear, but the name of the country and the city where they are living roughly appeared.
“France, Britain, Russia, Australia, Korea…… It’s going to be a world tour if you want to invite everyone”
There were already ten countries that he read. It’s such a big dream. This wasn’t something they can reach up to right now.
Despite the harsh reality, Gray, George, and Rebecca looked at the monitor screen with a flushed face.
People from so many countries were cheering for Gray.
“I want to do it. I’ll do it.”
Gray’s eyes sparkled.

A big goal has been set. The children filmed the video with more efforts.
The two of them supported Gray without giving up on their daily life and school. The crowdfunding has been a success.
It was not enough to take a good teacher’s lesson, but it was enough to buy a proper violin.
“Can I try something new on the next busking?”
“What is it?”
“The song I composed.”
Rebecca and George nodded at Gray’s words.
“That’s so nice! They’ll all be surprised!”
“Hehehehe.”
George moved quickly. His friend’s first self-composed song performance! He wanted to make it possible to play in a wider and better place than here, where a large audience could hear.
Rebecca worked with Gray on the score. When Rebecca suggested something new to Gray, Gray listened carefully.
As Rebecca knew more songs than Gray she was able to suggest adjustments to make the song to feel more in harmony.
The concert venue George prepared was the largest in the park. There were many people and the place was spacious.
Nervous Gray stood at the place to play and looked around. Park janitors and friends whom he met a few times, and people who often came to see busking arrived one by one.
At the news of Gray’s performance, people from Down Rock, who rarely go to the park, also showed up in the park.
They wore shabby clothes, however they were clean and tidy.
Some of the people in Down Rock are people who work hard to make a living in order to get by the day. Despite their situation, they still supported him.
Pit-a-pat, pit-a-pat.
His heart was beating so fast.
He felt so happy.
Gray rested his chin on the violin and raised his bow.
The bow came down on the strings of the violin. A melody played out.
What Gray had been through was delivered to the audience on the violin.
He was happy to meet his friends and he was happy to learn the violin. He was happy to meet the teacher and feeling despair at the teacher’s scan. At the end of the despair which he thought he could not escape, there was a rainbow, and across the rainbow, happiness now awaited.
The audience who knew Gray’s story trembled together with Gray’s emotions and melody that stuck in them like thorns.
They smile whenever Gray showed a smile, and feel sad at the difficult times.
And amidst difficulty, there was a faint hope in despair. In the end, he was happy.
The melody, which seemed to shine brilliantly, died down slowly without bursting, contrary to the audience’s expectations.
When they thought this was the end, the screen changed.
Following the vanishing melody, the screen, showing the trees and floating leaves brushing against Gray, gradually rose to the sun.
The screen, which used to shine brightly with the sun’s light, quickly changed. The camera came down slowly.
It showed a theater full of audience. On the stage a person stood in a black tuxedo.
It was Grey.
[I want to invite everyone and let them hear my performance.]
Recalling his childhood commitment, Gray picked up his bow and played the violin.
The screen was fixed, making it look as they were watching a Concerto right in front of a movie theater.
More refined and calmer, but the vivid Gray’s unique liveliness was further developed, and Over the Rainbow was heard.
The spectators in the theater were mesmerized by the excellent performance.
As if it was really a solo concert, there was no narration or screen change from the beginning to the end of Over the Rainbow.
The continuous performance finally shone.
Happiness.
Joy.
All the positive emotions in the world poured into the audience like waves.
Before they knew it, there were also some people among the audiences who closed their eyes and listened to music.
Just by the difference between the previous performance and the current performance, they could see how hard Gray tried and how many people supported him.
Meet a true teacher, buy a better violin, trying hard and a dream.
Even without watching the movie, they could tell just by listening to this violin performance all the hard work poured.
So a Down Rock’s child became a violinist.
Even though it was a very happy performance, they cried a little.
Lee Mi-yeon and Park Sung-ah sobbed and wiped their eyes.
The performance that they wanted to keep listening soon met an end. Gray’s bow stopped when the final note rang loudly in the concert hall.
When Gray bowed, the audience in the movie stood up one by one and applauded.
Suddenly, the movie audience were silent, without a single background sound.
Moviegoers have fallen in love with the movie, just like watching Gray Beanie performing somewhere on a two-way live broadcast.
A man who appeared to be a staff member handed the microphone to Gray. There was no editing in the meantime. The unedited part brought a sense of reality to the audience.
Gray neatly pulled his hair back, smiled and opened his mouth. His appearance did not change much, but his confident expression and soft smile showed how much Gray had grown.
“I didn’t expect so many people to come.”
Gray looked at the audience. He looked as if he felt overwhelmed.
The people who supported Gray Beanie who was only written, were all in front of Gray’s eyes with substance.
Mom, Rebecca, George, the man upstairs, the brother downstairs, the sandwich shop man, the child who sponsored with his mother, and the people who left comments saying that his music was helpful during the hospitalization.
A lot of people were here.
Gray quietly looked around the audience, then looked at the camera. When moviegoers thought they had eye contact with Gray, Gray on the screen laughed.
“Thanks to your support, I was able to stand here. Thank you very much for your continuous support.”
Clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap!
Claps were heard and curtains came down on the stage. The clapping kept ringing. The audience at the movie theater was clapping without realizing it.
They were still clapping their hands even the lights in the theater turned on, and a song played as the ending credit went up.
[Gray’s violin performance No. 1]
It was a violin performance full of Gray’s gratitude and gratitude. The audience did not know how to leave their seats, admiring the performance that flowed once again.
Lee Mi-yeon, who was clapping, suddenly remembered something she put in her bag before the movie began.
A souvenir worth 3,000 won Lee Mi-yeon took the ticket envelope out of the bag with her trembling hands. Park Sung-ah saw such a friend.
Lee Mi-yeon opened the ticket envelope and took out the ticket. I could see the golden letters, which were especially.
[Name, Thank you for your long support.]
[Violinist: Gray Beanie]
