In a world where legacy looms large, Etienne D'Arcy's journey begins with the shadows of neglect. Once known as Ji-hoon Kim, he finds himself thrust into the elite realm of ballet when his estranged mother takes him from South Korea to live with her new husband, Lucien D'Arcy-the world's greatest ballet dancer. Initially resentful of the arts due to his mother's abandonment, Etienne is forced to confront his fears as he navigates intense training, media frenzy, and the weight of expectation.

As he transforms from a reluctant boy into a remarkable artist, Etienne grapples with his identity, the legacy of his newfound family, and the drive to carve his own path in a world that constantly watches. With each breathtaking performance, he dances not just for accolades but to prove that he is more than just the D'Arcy heir-he is a force to be reckoned with. Join Etienne on his gripping journey of self-discovery, passion, and the power of dance as he embraces his destiny.

She couldn't let a boy get in the way of her promise to her mother. She mashed her palms into her eyes then looked at him to confirm he wasn't a mirage. He was still there. "Either you're a bad cliché or too good to be true. Neither one is what I need right now." She backed off further, "I've gotta go." He stepped towards her and she retreated more. "Don't," she said as turmoil swirled in her mind. "Clichés aren't all bad," he pleaded.
