Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
A piano composition takes on an unexpectedly profound meaning for two students contending with the loss of a dear friend. Cellists Myeong-jin and Jeong-wu study at the same conservatory. Their mutual respect for one another is only exceeded by their tremendous musical talents. Meanwhile, piano student Ji-eun pens an original composition entitled "Magic" which Jeong-wu offers to perform live. But when the ailing cellist collapses during the debut performance, Myeong-jin makes sure that the show goes on without a hitch. Though at first it looks like Jeong-wu will make a full recovery, she later dies. Later, Jeong-wu's two dearest friends collaborate for one final, heartfelt performance of "Magic."
