Stars on Tiptoe
A former ballet prodigy x an aloof dance professor
An intense contest of pain, redemption, and a triumphant reunion
Lin Xingwan, once a ballet prodigy, returns to school with a shattered ankle and three years away from the stage behind her. Waiting for her is Professor Chu Han, an international dance legend known for his severity and nicknamed the "Beijing Dance Academy's Grim Reaper."
He demotes her to Class B. "Three years will make you better."
Everyone sighs over the fallen prodigy, unaware that every night he gazes through his window at the figure spinning alone until she collapses from exhaustion.
When the international competition arrives, the buried past comes to light: he was one of the judges behind the scenes at the competition three years ago, the one that changed her fate. On the day she left school, he had held a letter of recommendation he never sent.
"Chu Han, why do you keep pushing me?"
"Because I know you can reach far beyond the stars."
Above her toes, flowers bloom from scars. Beneath the iceberg, a flame has burned for three years.
