I performed it in front of a stranger and he took the cards from my hand and made them disappear

Huh, actually a lot easier to do /start than I expected, and looks really good! The flick is a good idea to cover the card swap noise

The thing i find interesting about magic is that even when i know how trick is performed i still find it impressive because of the skill of the performer.

Finally an in-depth guide on the snap change! All of the other videos I have found on YouTube are like "OK here's how to do it OK bye" but this one actually goes into detail to tell you how to do it. Great video!

Thanos did this trick and everyone dissappeared

that taehyun magic island vlive vid really influenced me to check this lol

[LokiKeanu]

Ive been doing magic for 24 years, I have learnt hundreds of changes, slights subtlety etc palming methods and advanced manipulations, this change has always eluded me, you literally said ONE thing which ive never heard before in tutorials for this ONE thing, and i can finally do this, i honestly cant thank you enough!

[emmakimtv]

I came here because of Taehyun's shocking magic tricks

[andrewcowley]

Excellent tutorial. Absolute clarity. Found it easy to get the move once ideal position ( for me) of fingers established.

I almost never leave a like or a comment on a video but I'm definitely giving you one

I watch 3 snap change tutorial unable to perform it growing increasingly frustrate because I was convince my hand was too small to allow my middle finger to pull back the card I saw your video and I thought to myself why the hell not

in the middle of the video I stopped to go practice in front of my mirror within 10 - 20ish try I could do it the first time I succeed at a decent speed I was shock I spend a minute just starring at the card filled with joy and pride now 30 minute later I can do it pretty fast

you will never see this but nevertheless

Thank you

I remember learning this trick like 10 years ago, and it took me months of practice to get it looking fairly good. Don’t give up! This trick takes lots of time to perfect, but once perfected, it blows peoples minds! Really good reactions.

Also, for the people that have perfected it. You can take it a step further. Take three cards instead of two, do the snap change and the two cards will come to the front and fan out, making it look twice as amazing. Not only did you change the card, but you changed the card into two completely different cards. It also hides the back card that little bit better! Good fun.

THANKS SO MUCH! I used this to get a date to homecoming and she loved it! I had the first card say will you, then the other ome said go to hoco with me!

[jonathanpalmer]

Great teaching. Clear, thorough, detailed, fun-really perfect. I'll be watching you a lot more. Thanks for the great job. You're a terrific teacher and person. Can't wait to get this change down.

I just searched 'Taehyun magic tricks' and this appears 👀

[whoisarnab]

Instructions not clear.
Have a dislocated shoulder now.

[ps]

This was the very very first move/trick I learned, 3 years ago. I still perform it today, and this tutorial reminded me of the awesome time I've had since I started magic :D Thanks Vinh!

Learning how to actually snap the card didn't take me so long, but man oh man combining the snap + flick + some words, that's another level!! Brains on fire
