Netflix series "The Sound of Magic" is cruising as it ranks fourth in the global rankings.

On May 6th, the Netflix fantasy music drama "The Sound of Magic" starring Ji Chang Wook, was released amid high expectations.

"The Sound of Magic" depicts the story of a mysterious magician Lee Eul (played by Ji Chang Wook) suddenly appearing one day in front of Yoon Ah Yi (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.

With a fresh story and a musical-like directing, viewers are receiving favorable reviews. 

As the work draws great attention, attention is also being paid to actors, and Choi Sung Eun's past filmography is being re-examined.

Choi Sung Eun was surprised to see her appearance in the movie "Start-up," which was released in 2019.

At that time, she played the role of So Kyung Ju, a runaway teenager, and showed her strong presence by appearing with sunglasses with a red hairstyle.

She received a lot of applause for showing his true education with his high-quality boxing skills. 

This is 180 degrees different from Yoon Ah Yi in "The Sound of Magic," which gave a twist.

In the case of Yoon Ah Yi, she was a high school girl who took care of her young brother alone in an unfortunate environment and lived a hard day.

Internet users responded by saying, "It's amazing that it's the same person," "I thought it was pretty even when it started, but Choi Sung was an actor," and "The actor's transformation is amazing every time."

Meanwhile, Choi Sung Eun is drawing attention as a rising rookie as she debuted with the movie "Start-Up" and performed well in her first feature-length drama JTBC's "Monster."
