GOT7's Jinyoung and former IZ*ONE's Kim Minju unfold a story just for the two of them. The new JTBC drama "Shining," which starts airing in Korea from March 6, depicts the process of young people who shared a world of just the two of them, becoming the very 'light' that illuminates each other's life direction. With Jinyoung (playing Yeong Taeso) and Kim Minju (playing Mo Una) attracting great interest as icons of first love, a teaser poster featuring their outstanding youthful chemistry has been released. The poster shows the back of Yeong Taeso and Mo Una sitting side by side in the summer sunshine and greenery. From the two looking at the quiet town scenery, a freshness and innocence typical of 19-year-olds can be felt, further stimulating the senses. Yeong Taeso appears to be looking down, while Mo Una seems to be looking up and gazing into the distance; a subtle atmosphere can even be sensed between them as they spend time together. As the phrase 'We were special' suggests, there is growing interest in how Yeong Taeso and Mo Una will share their emotions and build a world just for the two of them, becoming incredibly special to each other. The teaser poster, which includes an unforgettable scene from the protagonists' youth, raises expectations for "Shining," which will deliver a quiet resonance through the story of Yeong Taeso and Mo Una sharing their glorious past moments. Above all, there is interest in the collaboration of Jinyoung and Kim Minju, which evokes the bittersweet and fleeting memories of first love. The show is set to premiere in Korea on March 6 at 8:50 PM.
