Director Kim Seong-yoon, who created popular works such as JTBC’s “Itaewon Class” and KBS2’s “Love in the Moonlight”, was in charge of directing and became a hot topic even before the release of “The Sound of Magic”.

Viewers were also impressed by the actors’ singing skills that enchanted their ears, saying, “The directing of Hwang In-youp and Ji Chang-wook‘s songs was so good.”
Although some people commented that the work was cheesy because of the music drama genre, most netizens expressed high satisfaction, saying even the song “Journey” was perfect.
According to the online content service ranking site “Flix Patrol” on May 8th, “The Sound of Magic” ranked 7th in Netflix’s worldwide TV program category as of the previous day.
