Beyond the Typical Kids’ Magic Show
Every weekend, parents face the same question: where do we go? Kids’ cafes blur together. Small theater magic shows have become predictable. As a travel creator who has experienced performances around the world, I’ve learned that what children remember isn’t the destination — it’s the quality of the experience.
The Ultra Magic Concert by illusionist Choi Hyung-bae isn’t a kids’ show with a few card tricks. It’s a full-scale blockbuster production — the kind of thing you’d expect in Las Vegas, not a weekend afternoon in Korea.
What Makes This Show Different
1. Relentless Pace
The show never slows down. Before one illusion ends, the next has already begun. Adults lean forward. Children stop fidgeting. The entire audience holds its breath — together.
2. A Full Ensemble Cast
Most magic shows feature one performer, maybe two. Ultra Magic Concert fills the stage with multiple performers working in precise coordination. The energy is entirely different — bigger, warmer, more alive.
3. Twists You Won’t See Coming
Just when you think you understand what’s happening — the show surprises you again. The storytelling is constructed around reversal after reversal. “There’s no way that’s possible” — and then it happens anyway.
Choi Hyung-bae: A Different Side of a Legend

Choi Hyung-bae is recognized as one of Korea’s top three illusionists. Fans who know him from the educational “Original Science Magic Concert” will find something completely different here — commanding, theatrical, and breathtaking in scale.
The large-scale illusion apparatus he controls on stage is the clearest evidence of why he holds that title. This is his identity as a magician, fully expressed.

The Show in Action
As a travel creator, I’ve witnessed remarkable things around the world. But the expression on a child’s face when they see something they genuinely cannot explain — that remains one of the most beautiful sights I know.
Ultra Magic Concert delivers exactly that. If you’re looking for a weekend experience that goes beyond passing time — one that plants genuine wonder in your child’s imagination — this is it.
