Description
After the funeral of an old friend, Dukchul Shim resolves to pursue something he had always wanted to try: ballet. Much to the surprise (and maybe~ horror) of his wife, children, and other acquaintances, this 70-year-old throws himself into following his heart and his passion. With the help of his young instructor Chaerok and others hoping for their own ambitions to take flight, Dukchul shows the importance and joy of pursuing one's dream… even in the face of hardships and our own mortality.

Despite I'm the one that owns the group releasing this comic, I still want to give you guys my rating as to why I chose this project. It's not your every day comic to see an elderly protagonist to pursue their dreams especially as a ballet dancer. Even if there are hardships through his life, he still continue to do what makes him happy. This story will open your heart and mind to understand how life is so important and that it should not be wasted.

Seriously, even if scanlators have released only 4 chapters, this comic worths it your time. It's not often to see a old guy as a protagonist and the problems of the third age. A delicate and serene story.
Cried on the train reading this

To clarify, this webtoon isn't a tragedy, but I was just very moved reading it. To echo the other reviewers, the protagonist is very unique in that he's an elderly grandfather. It's (so far) a sweet slice of life about pursuing your dreams no matter what your age and not giving into the expectations of other. Looking forward to reading more!
Finally sth with a relatable elder protagonist

It's the first time I read a story that actually puts the elderly protagonist's self-development, goals and hopes into focus and not just use their struggles to mobilize another plot that ends up making the younger ones the protagonists. I loved the atmosphere and portrayal of different nuances of relationships in this constellation of family, doctors, friends and whatnot. The chemistry between the two protagonistst is especially well developed and brought me to tears at the finale. I also liked how dementia as a disease was discussed in a family context, since it affects a lot more than just your neurological decline.
I definitely recommend this, even if you are not an elder person yet, there are many perspectives in live, some that you only realize at a late age but could already use now.
I've seen the first episodes of the Netflix adaptation, it somewhat turned into a romantic drama ( well duh, K-dramas) and the atmosphere is too hostile to compare to the original source, it sucked tbh. Stay with the original source for a heartwarming and beautiful story.

How touching of a story !
We see a young man entering adulthood, his doubts, stress and uncertainty of his future.
And we see an old man trying to realize his last wish, preparing to "die" as he will no longer be the same, sharing good memories with everyone around him.
Bro how many times I cry to this. Made me think about so many things about my life but also about my parents.
Really great.
A must read

First of all, I am impressed that this manhwa cover the story of an elderly. And not any elderly, but an elderly who still strive to achieve his dream as a ballerino in his old age. While there are stigma in our social life that elderly should just rest and enjoy their retirement by spending the rest of their time with "normal hobbies", this manhwa shows us that even old people can and should live their life. It shows us how precious life is, how precious it is to take care of our dream in an emotional roller coaster way. I can't count how many times I cried while reading this. Probably in almost every chapter.
