this show left me speechless. i was expecting cool fantastical magic, the trailer and first episodes made me believe that it would take that path but boy was i wrong.

This show hurts a lot at the last 2 episodes. I was hurt as if I was there with them. It was hard to lose someone who understands you especially when you need them. The realization that he also needs help and he needs someone who understands him made me tear up:

This show was truly one of the best things I've ever seen, unexpected, original, endearing and the music made it all even more special. I didn't know there was going to be so many deep reflections on life, adulthood and not losing the magic of childhood. Absolutely incredible!

Here's my own analysis of the ending: The ending was purposely done so the viewers will not focus on the magic element, but rather the journey and growth of the main leads. It is also a subtle way for us to also see society issues, especially for children such as issue of the current way most adult see of education and the show also subtly tackles on depression. I also think it tackles how most adults treat children, especially the abusive employer who takes advantage of children with problems, the parents of Il Deung, and the teacher. As for the magic element, I think that in this story, the magic that Min Hyuk do to Ah Yi when helping her was real magic but is only limited when helping her and even then is still limited to certain extent. I guess his real magic only activates when he helps someone to make them truly smile so that's why when he helped Ah Yi solved her money problems, he failed (only prop money was generated) because that would not make her truly be happy, the same is also true when he helped Ah Yi with the abusive employer but I think it was partly activated when she checks after where was the boss that's why she didn't see him. The hint was the butterfly. The nail in the coffin was the police near the end asked Ah Yi if she was in the amusement park because they were flabbergasted that they saw flash of lights on that day, and that day was the day Ah Yi was shown the fireworks when she was transported to the Ferris Wheel. The butterfly (either the butterfly itself or the necklace) was always present when real magic was activated. It can also be a symbolism of their state of mind, especially Min Hyuk, but both Ah Yi and Il Deung were still not yet depressed. I think the butterfly was there to help Min Hyuk help children with problems that are caused by problematic adults. Anyways, at first I was disappointed that it was a bit of a cliffhanger (not knowing what happens to Il Deung after he dropped out of school and Min Hyuk after he disappeared), but it made me ponder about society issues especially on how we tackle education so I really liked it. I also think this is a clever way for them tot have season 2 if the show does very well lol

Ji chang Wook is the most versatile actor I have ever seen. He can make me cry, and laugh. I live in America, and I am hooked on Korean dramas. There is good lessons to learn in every one of them. For the most part they are clean to watch, great actors and actresses and you can learn so much about Korean people. They respect their elders and are taught manners. The men seem to really know how to treat women. I love my country but we could learn a lot from these wonderful south Korean people.

I am 71 years old and I still believe in the magic shown in the series the sound of magic. Congratulation to all people involved in the production of such masterpiece. Mr JCwook I could see your soul at your performance. Magnificent.

Only thing I'm upset about is the girl who killed Bella not getting her just desserts, but I loved this series!!

My worst fear is getting old, magic means so much to me and keeps me distracted from knowing I’ll get older one day. I’ve always believed in magic and always will this show brought me closer to that feeling and I am forever grateful for magic. Annara Sumanara💜

I absolutely loved the show. I was afraid I would not like it due to it being a musical but I truly loved the songs that were not too present, just right. There was a needed dose of magic and a good reflection on the pressure of societal norms as well as the passage to adulthood. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Incredible performance from the three leads. With a great message of hope and the need for us to see the signs when people are crying out for help.

I enjoyed it thoroughly and JCW was the perfect actor to play the part of the magician, as I saw his actual playfulness and happiness filtering into this part.

I really liked it, as an middleaged adult : working, paying your bills and being programmed/brainwashed by parents, teachers and society you risk to forget the miracles in live. You lose your connection with your heart ( which is endless) , your inner child and with spirit and live in your mind ( which you only have to use to think). The first 2 songs in the movie made me cry because it felt so sad that with growing up and living up to expectations of others instead of living your own life according to what makes you happy. It is so sad and painful when you lose the connection with your innerchild, the purity and joy. I think people should try to cherish that connection their entire life so even at the age of 80 you still have that joyful child inside that believes in magic....🦋💖

I wasn't overly pleased with the show the first time around. My second time watching, it was a light bulb moment and everything clicked. I've watched it five times now and every time I fall deeper into its magic. Wonderful program.

I felt a little bit of sadness when JCW is nowhere to find at the final episode but that sadness was taken away when I saw the last theater performance of the over-all casts and saw JCW there singing. Atleast that way made me to like SOM even more

This series was really needed at this time.The beauty and innocence of magic stayed present The whole series. I thought it was really lovely to see the friendships grow,and especially with the magician and the teen,it wasn't cringy or creepy,he held his position as someone to look up to,which can be devastating if it turned sexual. Very happy and upbeat visual feast for all of us that DO BELIEVE IN MAGIC.Xx

Well done to the South Koreans. Cinematography, writing of script and actors/singers, even Bella the magicians beautiful bird who he adored. There’s a scene were I was sobbing when Bella was hurt by a nasty schoolgirl. I loved everything about this show. Well done to everyone involved.

The post credit scene doesn't really continues the story, but gave me a feeling that it could have season 2. Great show, it has exceeded my expectations. The only loose end I didn't get (I didn't read the webtoon) is that rash in the boys's neck. What did that mean, after all? Ji Chang Wook was charming as ever, the girl also sings so beautifully, the songs are enchanting...

BCP says, "I find The Sound of Magic a very unique story. It kept me watching it. I was a teacher, and I had seen a lot of heartache among students (in my case, deaf students). Every student/child should be happy to dream without us telling them they can't do it. I believe each student will channel his/her dream to the right one without any negative comments or put-downs."

well said explanation..It’s definitely about hopes, believes, caring, depression, dark, so many emotions that have meaning behind in the same time it give u the fancy show in reality world In my opinion for what i get, living the dream not that bad in order to continue living in life but if u really a believer …& don’t push yourself out of limits u will lose urself whatever it’s right or wrong eventually u will get hurt

Just finished the show in one sitting and I loved it😍. Thank you for the clarification on the ending😁

I'm so speechless it brings a lot of emotions and lessons

When Hwang In Yeop still didn't have an endgame: 👁👄👁

Absolutely loved it. I went through a roller coaster of emotions. It was beautiful, magical and yet heartbreaking. The cinematography was A+. Ji Chang Wook as Ri-ul was amazing. He did a great job and so did the other actors. Overall I am happy with the adaptation. A must watch show.

If there will season 2 . I will believe in magic

THIS DRAMA WAS SOOOOOO GOOD. I HOPE THEY WILL HAVE SEASON 2

The show was brilliant, so different from the majority of k-dramas I've watched so far, original, interesting and meaningful. Although I have to admit I was reluctant to watch it at first,I'm so glad I did. My beloved actor Ji Chang Wook proved his super talent once more,as well as the rest of the cast. All in all, this show was the pleasant surprise of the year!

I really enjoyed this series. There are definitely lessons to be learned and lots to think about, especially about the pressures that are bestowed upon us. Overall it was a very well made series. The ending was disappointing, but only because it felt like a cliffhanger, leaving you wondering what happened to the Magician and the male student. Thumbs up for me!

Loved it!!!!! Hoping for season 2 😭😭

I loved every minute, every detail about this show. The last 15 minutes of episode 1 is the most moving thing I've ever seen on film. Bravo!!

The show was the best show I've ever seen. It had so many unexpected twists and turns that you don't know what's going to happen next. It also had deep reflections on growing up and becoming an adult and loosing the belief in magic as well as the magic of being a child during childhood. The songs and the music were enjoyable to listen that it made me want to listen to them all day. I am wishing for a second series.

This was amazing! The Casting was perfect! Everyone played their parts so well! The best entertainment I have seen in a very long time! Thank everyone for all their very hard work! 🤗🤗🤗🤗

When the magician disappeared the abusive boss she asked him "where is he?" and the magician reply "if ill know where he is , he woldnt be disappear

It was simply the most beautiful heartwarming and motivating drama.. No money or being top brings happiness.. happiness should come within us... ji chang wook's character was amazing.. really amazing.... must watch drama.. I really hope for a season 2.. 6eps were too short..

something i really liked in the show was the friendship of the magician and ah yi. ive seen videos where people wished they got together but i personally dont agree with that and saw them more as platonic soulmates.

I was sad at the ending as I wanted JCW to come back. I loved his singing in the series.

This show was AMAZING and obvs ji changwook never disappoints

I came in looking for a feel good drama but i got a masterpiece instead definitely one of my favorite kdramas out there

watched all at once! loved it!

When I was watching this kdrama I was confused on why he always said his magic was real when everything he did was a trick. But then after watching it more and witnessing the events between the magician and Ahyi, I figured out that the magic he had was to make people feel better and happy. All the times he showed Ahyi magical things was the magic that was real.

This show is the exact mix between Peter Pan and The Greatest Showman and i LOVE it, Im pretty sure there will be a season 2 coming out soon

a combination of willy wonka and peter pan....it was extremely well done and i really enjoyed the highschool musical aspect of the show. beautiful voices.......allowed me to escape for a time and that was well needed and appreciated in these times

I personally think he really had magic and that in the end when he disappears he actually just got sent to a safer place, where people can't find him, at least for now... This thought also tells me that, maybe.. the magician will come back someday to see how his successor is doing but... idk what comes after the but, I can't exactly put my finger on it yet This really makes me want to believe that there is gonna be a season 2 but we don't know yet. Guess we will have to wait and see

The show is visual magic & I love every second of it! I am a little disappointing that I spoiled the show for myself, after reading the Webtoon graphic novel version first. It is a beautiful read, that I had to finish in one sitting.

Loved it. Wonderful and magical escape, with some life lessons along the way.

Loved this show. The characters and the actors portraying them, the music, the magic...have already watched it again. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Such an amazing show and you explained it very well!!

Absolutely brilliant!!!

i loved it but i got really confused at the end as to whether the magic is real or not. When he made the boss disappear it turned out he had pushed him. When that young girl caught him on camera and snooped around he choked her and through his fit of rage hurt his parrot. He literally fell into madness so i’m honestly confused how that wasn’t addressed? plus what happened to the boy with the glasses (sorry names have left my brain) ? we don’t really know what he decided to do and where he went? is the magic real or is it hallucinations? because when glasses boy breaks down and throws a chair you see him look at the light and a butterfly but no one else seems to be able to see it? i don’t know :,) because the girl becomes a party magician afterwards so does that mean magic is as real as you make it? and the last few things she says to the magician is “your a real magician because you made me believe magic is real” or something along those lines IM JUST SO CONFUSION. but the concept was so cool

I really enjoyed this drama. It was very well written and acted and the songs and singing enhanced the whole production. I would have happily watched a few more episodes.

I am a new fan of Ji Chang Wook. This series is the first thing I've seen him in and now I'm hooked on his talent to make me feel love. It lead me to other films he's been in such as Lovestruck in the city. Both of these films made me want to hold him until he felt better. I really wanted to take away all of his pain. What Talent this man has. Singing voice is also very soothing. He could sing me to sleep for sure. Certainly I hope there is a season II for this series. I would love to see Ri-eul and Ah-Yi get together despite their age difference. The way he looks at her with so much compassion and genuine love. I think I'm jealous.

This show was Amazing yet short i really loved it the plot , characters EVERYTHING was on point

I have one more episode to watch and I really don't want it to end! Marvelous in every way. Applause to the actors and the director. Beautiful cinematography and such creative choreography . A delight. I do believe in magic!! Yes!

I loved everything about this drama. It had everything!. Well done indeed!!!

Just finished it....I loved it😍... All the actors had such a good chemistry, every single episode was interesting and surprising and ji chang-wook was spectacular as always I didn't expect anything less from him?!

I loved this series especially bc Ji Chang Wook was casted (especially since he looks like Howl from Howl's moving castle lol). The music from this series slaps so hard tho. Even if I'm not Korean, I get LSS from the soundtracks alone and their visuals were also great!

This show was very unexpected for me. It spoke to me and I could relate to the story . This drama is unlike anything I have ever seen before and was beautifully written and produced. After I finished it I found myself thinking about it over and over and the Peter Pan storyline really did stand out. My daughter and I watched the whole series on Mother's Day. We loved it.

I want him to come back to her in season 2. I loved the musical series. It was absolutely magical.

I just completed this series this series is amazing, I was expecting this series to end with a invitation card in the mail box just like how the webtoon ended but I hope there will be a season 2

Really good drama series and the songs are too good tooo♥️♥️♥️

I loved this. I have watched it loads of time. ❤❤❤ xxx

Just finished watching the series 💕💞

Loved it!

I do love it. Speechless. ❤️❤️❤️

Loved this show! Hope to see more like this 🥰

I loved this so much.

I was touched many times. I haven't cried so much on any drama for a long time (except maybe "39"...) beautiful story! great acting!

One correction - it's not becoming a boring adults that horrified the teens but rather becoming corrupt adults. they wanted to retain their innocence, purity, morality which they didn't witness among the adults around them (except for the magician).

I say that this was perfect. I really enjoyed it.

They want season 2 but it's been 7 or probably 8 years since Author made a original webtoon... He haven't made his season 2 on his webtoon after the first season... Probably they won't make it... Netflix didn't renew it... Or the director finished the story without telling that they will get season 2 because *Author of the Sound of Magic* didn't make his season 2 since he finished it...

I loved it so much

The show was beautifully written and I loved it so much!!!

Yesssss I enjoyed it so much 🎩🦋🦋🦋

I did enjoy and I am looking forward for the next episodes most especially the magician, JCW

I love you Ji chang wook 🥺😍

For those who shift the female cast and JCW, well they casted as an old man and minor not as a love team. Min-hyuk says he likes ah-yi not something as crush but a girl with a good heart.

Just finished it , it was just amazing soo deep the message was sooo sooo magic the ending for me was open and just perfect . The music the feelings the words it was sooooooo worth it 👌 🎶 Sooo now DO YOU BELIEVE IN MAGIC 🎩?

I just loved The whole thing the acting l just loved the actors in there roles they all did a great job I hope to may be see some more episodes if not I enjoyed it so much Thank You for a great show

It's a masterpiece. It also helped me move on from Twenty Five Twenty One

I love ❤️ it.. it was more than what I was expecting.. it be came a life long lesson. One that’s unforgettable as a child but as an adult, worry free.. when you follow your dream and belief and staying true to yourself.

I recommend this Netflix series. You can see Jichangwook's ( Rieul's) wonderful acting, singing and magic

I feel like it was too short of a show. They could’ve done atleast 8-10 episodes. I got to ep 5 and was confused when i saw there was only 6 episodes.

An interesting story that calls for explanation at tge end. Thank you

O my heartu this drama is just amazing . Mister .♥️♥️🛐

In my opinion, it is a happy ending. Lee doesn't go to prison, Yoon grows up to be a happy adult, the real murderer goes to prison. This show really made me believe in magic. This show showed me so much, so many emotions, twists.... 🤨But, do you believe in magic💫. (btw idk if it's Ri or Lee, Google says Lee but netflix Ri)

I really enjoyed the acting of all castes members and the story was very well done I hope to see more of these kind of story’s in the future I really enjoyed the episodes and I like to see more of the episodes . And actors

This series had me from the beginning. Stunning.

I think it was delightful 😊 ! Tho i must admit tht what captured my interest in the beginning was The Magician's captivating good looks 😅

Awesome acting. Love it.

It was a 10/10 but a bit short

to be honest this shows is very relatable and tbh for a sec I was like maybe I should consider doing somethin I want but the feeling of letting down my parents is what stops

Fantastic show. Well Done to All involved with it’s making. Thou would have been nice for her to get him to reappear an life together since he was cleared of wrongdoings. Maybe another season 🥰

It is all about believing. Everything and anything can happen with faith thus one can achieve anything the heart desires so long as you believe in yourself.

I loved it..👏👏Bravo!! Ji Chang Wook

Thw show made me appreciate ji changwook as an artist his voice is so beautiful

Hoping for season 2 please

Watching this has the same feels as reading a Murakami novel. Seriously thinking the characters would be more fleshed out and would be more magical surrealist if it was a book

I love this

Honestly i read annarasumanara ages ago and it made me sad idk why so i don't think i wanna watch. I can't bear to watch anything related to pain

Love this drama have watched it twice already just a very sweet and I thought thrilling always watch anything Ji is in anyway but loved his singing just a great drama gets 10 out 10 from me
