Glass String - English

According to an ancient Japanese legend, an invisible red string connects two souls destined to meet, regardless of time, place or circumstance.

Hope Mikaelson and Josette Saltzman have lived lives marked by encounters and farewells, always intertwined by fate but never at the right moment.

Now, in the present, Hope, a powerful and enigmatic woman, heir to a fortune and owner of prestigious art galleries, arrives in Mystic Falls to open a new cultural space.

Josie, a passionate music teacher living a simple life away from the spotlight, crosses paths with Hope in an unexpected encounter that reignites feelings that seem to have spanned centuries.

Amid memories that don't belong to this life, art that speaks to the soul, and melodies that awaken the heart, Hope and Josie will come to realize that perhaps the red string was never broken - it was merely waiting for the right moment to bring them together.

Will this be the year when fate finally ceases to be cruel?
