There are rumors going around town. They say that if you go to the old carnival, you'd see a dashing young man wearing a magician's hat — a man who has the power to make people disappear from the face of the earth. But before he does any magic, he will look you in the eye, stare at your soul with his grey eyes and ask,
"Do you believe in magic?"
Yoon Ai, a smart girl in her class, struggles to feed herself and her sister everyday. All she wants is to grow up faster so she can escape poverty and the reality of her miserable life. When she meets the rumored magician in the abandoned carnival, her life changes forever.
A comic from my early adolescence that will stay with me forever. (The k-drama adaptation was cute but nothing can compare to this). The art style was fucking beautiful, especially when colourised, arghh. I loved how the art style turned abstract/experimental/expressionistic at times or, for some aspects, the entire time. I really related to the main character's struggles and I was such a sucker for the romance. The ending instilled me with hope that I still clutch onto. I love magic <3
Review on webtoon "The Sound of Magic: Annarasumanara" by Ilkwon Ha (episode 6) - I read episode 6 today. It was pretty good. She has only one person who is ready to help her stay out of her problems in her life. The person whom she can trust is a magician. Today's episode reminded me of this question - 'Do you believe in magic ?'.
