Currently reading the magic shop book. By any chance have you read the book on singularity? I was thinking about jumping in to that next
Please note that BTS themselves never mentioned or recommended this book, and it is not the basis for the song Magic Shop.
A Korean Naver article is the original source of the rumour. However, when translated, the reporter only speculates that the book was an inspiration, citing no sources.
Rather, the Fake Love teaser/trailer says that the Magic Shop is "a psychodramatic technique that exchanges fear for a positive attitude" and then shows the members exchanging something they have for something they need. This suggests a more likely inspiration is the academic paper "The Magic Shop: The Therapist Masquerades As a Shopkeeper" by Earl Koile, which expands on the idea of using playacting as therapy by Jacob Moreno.
