"Jeki Yoo has an entertaining energy and unique close up magic! I love his FISM act" -Shin Lim

"Jeki's close-up magic utilizes a lot of stage magic elements which is uncommon and
very refreshing. Watching Jeki's lecture will definitely introduce new perspective and
inspire more creative work for magicians at all levels." -Andost (FISM 2012 Micro Magic first place)

"Jeki Yoo is one of my favorite magicians. He is a GENIUS!" -Yu hojin (FISM 2012 Grand Prix)

What will he teach?

4th Dimension- A red circle on a black piece of paper pops off and becomes a real ball, then back into the picture.

Rubberband Stop- The magician pulls a rubberband into a star shape and it is instantly hardened.  This makes an awesome souvenir for a spectator!

Ninja Ring-   A creative and entertaining Linking Rings routine that incorporates a finger ring and even a pair of eyeglasses.

Clap-Trap- Every time the magician claps, a card pops out of the deck. It even appears in the air.

Arrow coins-  Four coins appear impossibly from out of a playing card.

Coins thru Zipper Bag- The magician puts four coins into a transparent sandwich bag and he is able to remove them magically one by one through the plastic.

Diamond Matrix- The pips are removed from a signed card and transported to a corner of the table before they dissapear and are found back on the card. This is a beautiful routine and an excellent closer.

Who is he?

Jeki Yoo's magic is innovative and original, inspiring magicians and rousing applause from audiences around the globe .

Beautiful, but not for me Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 12th, 2020
Jeki Yoo performs a visually beautiful routine for 18 minutes. He provides clear, but quick instructions. He provides the dimensions of the props used, so you know what to look for. You can also purchase the materials from Jeki for a nominal fee.

All of the material is suitable for parlor or stage. Most of it would work for a close up show. Be aware of your angles when performing the Cone & Ball routine. I would not use any of it for street or strolling, although Jeki uses the Coins Through Zipper Bag strolling.

Jeki’s act builds upon others’ effects with elegant sleight of hand and stunning visuals; however, not much is built and the execution is inefficient. The props used in Coins Through Zipper Bag make a lot of sense especially compared to Coins Through (Sheer) Silk. You will need to clean up after performing Jeki’s version whereas the easy to master version is instantly reset.

4th Dimension requires some basic sleight of hand and you have plenty of cover to carry out the moves. The dot jumping on and off the paper is visual. But other than the one moment of the dot popping on little has been added to Jerry Andrus’s routine.

He performs Ninja Rings well, but there was nothing new or creative about it.

Haunted Deck, Clap Trap, and Diamond Matrix are awesome together. Haunted Deck and Clap Trap will certainly require rehearsal before showing anyone soon. Diamond Matrix is perfect from the audience’s point of view. The routine could be modified for other environments and situations. That is to say there are gimmicks you could keep on you to perform it in case you don’t have a close up case to dip into. You could also take the idea and combine it with your favorite matrix routine with or without gimmicks.

All in all, Jeki Yoo has a great act that I love seeing, but it is not revolutionary nor evolutionary. For me, the juice was not worth the squeeze.

Great Act Taught Well Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 6th, 2021
I was very impressed with this act. Dan Harlan does a great job hosting and Jeki is fun to watch. I read some very in-depth reviews /comments on this act breaking down trick by trick and for the most part I agree however, for the money this is a great investment. There is nothing revolutionary about these effects but if you like what you see and you don't know how it is done purchasing Jeki's act is an economical solution opposed to hunting down and purchasing these classics as one off's. Example : 4th Dimension and Cone and Ball are Jeki's takes on classics. Classics that are hard to find or expensive as solo purchases. Coin's through Bag, Jeki credits Michael Ammar, I doubt young magicians interested in this act have all of Michael Ammar's DVDs / Books. If you are interested in any of the routines i.e. Ring Routine, The Card tricks or the Classic manipulation this is a good purchase.

An Amazing talent Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 16th, 2020
This is without a doubt one of the best penguin live lectures ever produced. Jeki shows some of his real working material one of the best openings I’ve seen in years and is super entertaining throughout. I have already started doing the opening and super love it super super super super super super love it. The ninja ring routine in my personal opinion is the best I’ve ever seen and is so well thought out and gives the routine a real ending. Jeki Has become one of my favorite performers to watch and thank you to penguin for presenting his word to us it’s truly a gift

Very creative and magical Report this review

Also, witching reach of intermediate (and advanced beginner) magicians.

4th Dimension is fun to watch and part of the method is not obvious, which adds quite magical moments.

Diamond Matrix also caught my fancy, again with a key aspect of the method not obvious (at least to me), which can be well applied to other effects.

The other effects were also enjoyable and for the most part magical.
