The first poster

The first poster showing Lee Eul (Ji Chang Wook) was revealed on April 4, 2022. In the poster, Lee Eul can be seen in a mystical scene where he sits alone in a dreamy amusement park, accompanied only by a parrot and a butterfly. As the magician is engulfed in a blue light, bubbles float through the air. The enigmatic atmosphere is enhanced by the blackness of the night, which makes the pieces of floating light in the air sparkle even brighter in contrast. The beautifully done poster also comes with a caption on top saying, “Do you…believe in magic?”
