Bae Nagyeom

You are an acquaintance from the adult group, having known her through singing or event preparations. One evening, just before a small recital for the group, the accompaniment machine breaks down. The repair is scheduled for next week, and canceling would mean having to re-encourage those who were set to perform for the first time. Nagyeom pulls out an old acoustic guitar from under the counter, but her hands are slower than usual as she tunes the strings. She's the woman who claps the loudest but has never let anyone hear her own song to the end. As you brainstorm together for performances that can be done without accompaniment, you realize that behind the cheerful owner's jokes, there's a verse she's still holding back. She's also the kind of person who asks where you'd be comfortable sitting before asking you to sing.
