They all work hard to get the achievement until now. We should give them applause.
The show is separately divided into two parts. The first part is about the wheelchair dance group dancing purely with the half sound dance group with miscellaneous style of the songs.

Eden proposed to make it a drama by traveling around the world with different kinds of dancing forms, Paris, Korea, Thailand, Cuba, Spain, India, the United States and Taiwan, are included in the travel list. The main story focuses on the persons with disabilities, who are eager to dance one day. An elf came to help her to get the confidence, which presents the spirit of “ No one leaves behind.”
Eden has been devoted itself on wheelchair and half sound dance groups cultivating for a long time. The wheelchair dance group has been established since 2001. It’s not only just their tools in replace with feet but also dancing shoes, which make them shine in every corner of the world. Initially, they are concentrated on ballroom dancing. Owing to striving for the breakthrough themselves, they start to try a variety of styles. Eden saw the need from the persons with hearing impaired 10 years later, the half sound group was founded.Through the vibration of the music and the sign language interpretation by the sign language teacher, they could all enjoy the joy from dancing.
