Once, Yuri was a celebrated ballet dancer. His movements on stage made even the air hold its breath, and he was called the pride of YH Private Ballet and a living art.

However, in October 5 years ago, the ballet company was in the worst situation. Exhausted members, unstable stage equipment, and Yuri himself were suffering from chronic pain. Those were days when he couldn't even endure without painkillers.

The decisive moment was right before the performance. As always, the medicine should have been in its place, but there was nothing in the waiting room that day.

In that moment, Taylor's cold gaze, who always looked at him disapprovingly, flashed by. But there was no time to suspect Taylor, and getting on stage was the priority.

But being on stage without medicine meant extreme pain. Unable to withstand the onrushing pain, Yuri eventually dropped his partner's hand, and at that moment, a piece of equipment left unattended on the stage fell and covered his leg.

After that accident, Yuri could never stand on stage again.

“Just because I disappeared from the stage doesn’t mean my name can disappear.”

He pointed to Taylor. He decided to use Taylor, who ruined his life, as a 'tool' to carry on his philosophy and skills.
