[Weak Top, Strong Bottom, Happy Ending]
The weak top is a ballet student, refined, delicate, and clean-cut.
The strong bottom is a rich junior visiting the school on an exchange program, arrogant, aloof, sharp, and especially cutting with his words.
The strong bottom thinks the weak top is a vain kept lover. He looks down on him and makes cutting remarks, but even after falling for him, he stubbornly refuses to admit it.
The weak top dreams of winning an international ballet competition and becoming a principal dancer.
But his father falls gravely ill, and ballet tuition is expensive.
The weak top really does become the strong bottom's kept lover, for his family and his dream.
By the time the strong bottom realizes how he feels, the weak top has already fallen into depression. After giving a performance that astonishes the world, the weak top takes his own life.
1. A melodramatic regret-and-redemption story.
2. Extremely sentimental.
3. The weak top doesn't care about the strong bottom from the beginning through to his suicide. His dream is what he loves most.
Theme: Pursue your dreams. The world is vast.
