   Eeewwwhhh!!!

   This reminds me of that scene in Shallow Hal, where Jason Alexander dumps his hot girlfriend because her second toe is bigger than her big toe. This woman’s feet are a bit more extreme though.

   Our feet were not designed for prancing about on our toes.

   What amazing dedication.

   Robert, your link to Kang Sue-jin is incorrect.

   She’s briefly mentioned in the article, for having won an award in 1999.

   I can’t imagine how she could fit those into a pair of ballet shoes :0

   Thank you. I was thinking about sending my daughter to ballet lessons. It’ll be violin or piano instead.

   I am speechless. I have not seen a pair that bad off ever before.

    How can anyone walk, much less dance, on those toes?

    My daughter had been in dance since she was three, ballet since seven and on point since twelve. He feet do NOT look anything like that. There is something seriously messed up there.

    It’s an old photo, well known in Korea, usually followed by a photo of the beautiful ballerina’s face.
