The film is adapted from the cartoon of the same name in 1992. It tells the romantic encounter between the kind-hearted poor boy Aladdin and the brave Princess Jasmine. With the help of the magic lamp spirit who can satisfy the master's three wishes, they embark on the magic of finding true love and self together. Journey's Story

In the dark night of the vast desert, the magician Jia Fang opened a mysterious cave. However, the guardian of the cave told him that it would only allow people as pure as gems to enter it.

Aladdin is a gangster who steals things for a living with Abu, the little monkey. One day, Aladdin rescued a young girl from a merchant who claimed to be "the princess' maid." Abu stole the girl's bracelet, making the girl mistakenly believe that Aladdin stole it, so she left in anger.

Her real identity is actually Princess Jasmine of the kingdom. She is not willing to be a useless "vase" to marry a useless prince, but has been studying hard, hoping to make the country prosperous one day.

In order to return the bracelet, Aladdin infiltrated the palace disguised as a guard, but was caught by Prime Minister Jia Fang. Jia Fang saw that he was the one who could enter the mysterious cave, so he promised Aladdin to be rich and rich, hoping that he could take out a treasure from the cave - a magic lamp.

Aladdin moved forward and became friends with the flying carpet in the cave. Unexpectedly, because Abu accidentally touched the treasure in the cave, Aladdin was in trouble. Jia Fang, who got the magic lamp, ignored Aladdin. Aladdin was left in the cave. Fortunately, the witty Abu stole the magic lamp back.

There was a trapped elf living in the magic lamp. The elf told Aladdin that he was omnipotent and could fulfill Aladdin's three wishes.

After leaving the cave, Aladdin immediately made a wish to become a prince and return to Agrabah to meet Princess Jasmine again.

The fake prince Aladdin did not look like a prince at all, and was almost seen by Princess Jasmine. With the help of the magic lamp and the flying carpet, Aladdin successfully won the princess' heart.

However, as a fake prince, after all, it can't last long. The magic lamp urged Aladdin to confess to the princess as soon as possible, and Aladdin fell into confusion. At this time, Jia Fang also knew the true identity of Aladdin. He pushed Aladdin into the water and escaped with the help of a magic lamp. And used up the second wish

Aladdin, who returned to the palace, exposed Jafar's conspiracy and broke Jafar's smuggler, which he used to control the sultan. The lost Jia Fang took advantage of the quarrel between the elf and Aladdin to steal the magic lamp and became the new owner of the magic lamp.

Jia Fang, who got the magic lamp, made a wish to banish Aladdin and Abu the monkey to a cold area, made the Sultan his slave, made the Sultan himself, and wanted Princess Jasmine to marry him.

Fortunately, the flying carpet came to rescue Aladdin. Aladdin, who returned to Agrabah, took advantage of Jafang's greed and tricked Jafang into making a wish to become a magic lamp elf. While Jia Fang gained powerful power, he was also cursed and trapped in a magic lamp, losing his freedom.

Aladdin made his last wish, not to restore his status as a prince to marry Princess Jasmine, but to fulfill the elf's wish and give him freedom. Princess Jasmine's courage was also recognized and she became the new Sultan.

Aladdin was about to leave the palace and return to his ordinary life in the past, but Princess Jasmine kept him and hoped to govern the country with him. Aladdin and the princess had a grand wedding, while the elf and the princess' maid were free to roam the world.

The first long shot, from the couple on the boat telling stories to the children, all the way across the sea to the market in Agrabah, then to the royal palace, and finally to the Jafar and the mysterious cave in the desert, the story ends, and back to on that boat. The moment the mother of two young children looked back, the audience found the surprise, which added realism to the story of "Aladdin", but it may also be just a story made up by a couple at sea for the children. This feeling, both true and false, is unforgettable. Perhaps this is the charm of "story".
