The protagonist in the movie was originally a very timid boy, shy and inferior. But in the end he killed the terrifying dragon with his sword. Because he began to believe in himself step by step, and only if he truly believed in himself would he have magic. This is a magical world, everyone and everything has energy, and if you use your heart, you will attract people and things with the same frequency as you. Like the hero who believes that he can cross the abyss to the other side of the bridge because he believes that magic will work. Therefore, each of us has magic, which is to believe that we have come to this world with light, as long as you do what you really like and believe in yourself, you will definitely do it. At the same time you become that brave self.

At the end of the whole movie, the protagonist opens his diary and sees the wish he made on his birthday. He thought he couldn't make it, but in his memories, he found that it was his brother who accompanied him to complete it. That is, the older brother who he always felt like a fool and would accomplish nothing in the future, had been accompanying him to grow up. In 1/2 of the magical world, it's like our world is not perfect, only if you see this 1/2 of luck, you will see complete happiness. 1/2 of the world does not have absolute happiness, but when we start to appreciate the 1/2 we have, happiness is by our side.
