Love in Magic

The original Romeo meets Tinder plot gets a Korean makeover but loses the stakes somewhere between the wand flourish and the Wi-Fi signal. A magician specializing in female applause tries his usual act on a teacher who saw through the trick years ago and now sets up a blind date just to watch him squirm. Throw in an app and a few fireworks, and suddenly legerdemain looks amateur.
