FEATURE STORY: MAGIC'S BEST KEPT SECRET IS REVEALED - we have spent countless hours putting this story together along with the author, and honoured VANISH was chosen to be the magazine to get the world exclusive on this. Twenty-One years before Dennis Rodman, eighteen years before Dale Salwak, eight years before Princess Tenko, heck four years before Kim Jong Il took over the country, Dameon - aka Hal Meyers and Mundaka Lee performed “magic” in The Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea - the DPRK - otherwise known as North Korea for then President Kim II Sung. VANISH magazine is breaking new ground in the magic publishing world by running the story in it's entirety with photos and a video montage of their incredible journey.
