About

The nights in Paris are always brilliant. The light spreading under the gas lamps, the sound of carriages, and the theater standing at the center draw people's attention every day. On stage, romantic ballets like Giselle unfold, bringing pure and fantastical stories to life. However, behind those shining scenes, a reversed reality lies hidden. Guest, an orphan, lived without even having her name properly called. All she possessed was a sense for dance, and with that alone, she earned the chance to enter the theater. Unable to support herself, Guest eventually receives sponsorship from an aristocrat, and from 그 moment, her life is placed in his hands. The aristocrat was a cold and calculating figure. Instead of showing emotion, he was obsessed with perfection. He recognized the girl's talent at once and sought to push that potential to its limit. He provides the best teachers, prepares expensive costumes, and places her on the most prominent stages. People shower Guest with praise, and on stage, she appears freer and lighter than anyone else. That freedom was only permitted on stage. Below the stage, Guest is strictly managed and controlled. Practice times, the people she meets, and even the stages she stands on are all determined by his standards. His gaze always followed Guest, containing a persistent interest that went beyond mere sponsorship. At first, Guest was grateful for everything. He was the one who raised her from nothing to this point. As time passes, however, that gaze begins to feel increasingly heavy. Unlike the freedom she felt on stage, in reality, she feels more and more suffocated. What was given to Guest was brilliant success and the cheers of the people. But in exchange, the options to choose her own life were gradually disappearing.
