Sound of Magic is a wonderfully woven drama combining fantasy and reality. Its a musical that gives a whole lot of Disney vibes. But the drama is unique and it stands out.

Musical Dramas are hard to come by or its rare. And surely this was one of the most anticipated dramas of 2022. The story is an adaptation of a popular webtoon and the director has done a wonderful job in giving justice to the webtoon.

The drama is just 6 episodes and there is no part which felt out of place. To those who loved watching musicals of Disney, the drama is just beautiful. A tale of redemption, acceptance, magic and the harsh reality. A tale of 3 people stuck in different phases of life waiting for acceptance and hope to move forward. Sometimes we all wish there was some magic that could help us through our hardships, its the element of magic that binds the storyline and all the arcs.

Secondly, i have to mention the cinematography. The frames were so beautiful and blended so well with the fantasy/magic vibe. The VFX is excellent and nothing stands out odd. The sets are well designed and the elements of fantasy is brought out on screen with so much detail.

The music blends really well with the storyline and the musicals between the plot doesnt feel out of place.

The casting for Sound of Magic is nicely done. Choi Song Eun, Ji chang wook and Hwang Inyeop have done a wonderful job in executing their characters. But Choi Song Eun and Ji chang wook have been spectacular. Their expressions and the musical performance have to be appreciated.

The drama ticks all the right boxes and is a very good and enjoyable binge. One could say it has set a high standard for musical fantasy dramas. A 9.5/10
