Cheon Sang Ji Hee The Grace‘s Chunmoo Stephanie has returned as a ballernia.
On the 18th, Stephanie appeared on QTV‘s Real Interview where she revealed the reason why she withdrew from CSJH The Grace, her lonely recovery, the reason why she decided to start ballet again and her plans for the future.
Stephanie was known as the ballet prodigy at the age of 12. Afterwards, she also received an award for being the best singers among the youth division in a talent show that was being held in California. After receiving this award, she placed her dreams of becoming a ballerina on hold and began her career as a singer in Korea.
Stephanie explained the hardships she went through by saying,
“We held a concert in Japan 2 years ago, but right before the day of the concert, I injured my back up to the point where I couldn’t even move. I couldn’t leave my house for 6 months and I felt lonely and eventually fell into depression.” The Stephanie that fell into depression was able to get back on her feet after she recovered from her injury.
Recently, Stephanie was in The Nutcracker, along with the ballerinas in Los Angeles. She played the role of a beautiful Arabian woman and recently performed on stage.
The art director of this project, Thordal Christensen, complimented Stephanie by saying, “On the outside, Stephanie has a very strong and yet calm facial expression. Her body figure is very fit and is very talented in many aspects when it comes to different techniques. She will become a very talented dancer.”

Date: 2011-03-18 02:00 pm (UTC)direct translation: 천상지희 더 그레이스그 활동을 그만두게 된 사연 = "the story why she had to give up promotions with csjh the grace" probably refers to her injuring her back
