Jinyoung of GOT7 and Kim Minju from IZ*ONE reunite. The new JTBC Friday series 'Shining', which will first air in Korea on March 6, has released the main and character posters today (24th), depicting the reunion of grown-up Yeong Taeseo (Jinyoung) and Mo Una (Kim Minju). 'Shining' is a drama that portrays the process of young people who shared a world of just the two of them becoming the 'light' that illuminates each other's life. The previously released teaser poster showed the fresh and refreshing 19 and 20-year-old Yeong Taeseo and Mo Una, while the newly released posters highlight the more mature atmosphere of the two at 30 years old. The main poster captures a loving moment of Yeong Taeseo and Mo Una sitting side by side on the subway. Their warm gazes, looking at each other in the sunlight streaming through the window, have deepened compared to the past. The bittersweet atmosphere that still lingers between them, unchanged from over a decade ago, conveys a different kind of excitement. Especially, the phrase 'There is something that only applies to you and me. Because it's you and me, we can do it' suggests that the world they created together from their childhood first love memories remains valid even after time has passed, leaving a deeper aftertaste. In the character posters, Yeong Taeseo and Mo Una coexist with loneliness and sadness, catching the eye. Yeong Taeseo gazes out the window of the subway, while Mo Una stands on the platform outside. Their fleeting eye contact conveys complex emotions. The phrase 'I met you again, whom I couldn't forget' expresses Yeong Taeseo's unchanged feelings for Mo Una, while 'Can we be together?' reflects Mo Una's subtle mindset imagining a different ending than their separation ten years ago. Their story, where they couldn't forget each other as they were each other's light despite having parted ways long ago, piques curiosity. Like the winding subway tracks, the fateful reunion of Jinyoung and Kim Minju will unfold in JTBC's new Friday series 'Shining', airing two episodes back-to-back starting at 8:50 PM on March 6.
