    Netflix fantasy music drama "The Sound Of Magic" has been unveiled, and favorable reviews are pouring in.

    On May 6th, Netflix released the music drama "The Sound Of Magic" starring Ji Chang Wook.

    "The Sound Of Magic" depicts the story of a mysterious magician Rieul (played by Ji Chang Wook) suddenly appearing one day in front of Yoon Ai (played by Choi Sung Eun), a girl who lost her dream, and Na Il Deung (played by Hwang In Yeop), a boy who is forced to dream.

    Director Kim Sung Yoon, who created the popular works JTBC's "Itaewon Class" and KBS2's "Love in the Moonlight," became a hot topic even before its release.

    On top of that, director Park Sung Il and lyricist Kim Eana of "Itaewon Class" and tvN's "My Mister" were in charge of music, and Illusionist Lee Eun Gyeol also participated as magic advisors, raising expectations.

    Viewers who quickly watched "The Sound Of Magic" raised their thumbs to the touching direction.

    They suggested that the works gave a high sense of immersion, such as "I watched it crying," "I watched it lightly until dawn," and "I stayed up all night watching it and went to work."

    They also applauded the acting skills of actors Ji Chang Wook, Choi Sung Eun, and Hwang In Yeop, who made the work richer. 

    Viewers were also impressed by the actors' singing skills that enchanted their ears, saying, "The direction of Hwang In Yeop and Ji Chang Wook's songs was so good."

    Although some people commented that it was cheesy because it was a genre of music drama, most netizens expressed high satisfaction, saying that even the "cookie video" was perfect.

    According to the online content service ranking website "Flix Patrol" on the 8th, "The Sound Of Magic" ranked seventh in the Netflix TV program category as of the previous day.

    Attention is focusing on what other records "The Sound Of Magic," which performed well just one day after its release, will set in the future.
