Jeno plays the role of Woo-jin, a once-promising pitcher, while Jaemin plays the transfer student Tae-hee, who appears before Woo-jin. The story is expected to warmly and sincerely portray the relationship and story built between the two boys through baseball. In particular, expectations are high for Jeno, who is making his acting debut in this work, showcasing a new charm.

The drama 'Wind Up', already generating buzz with the two's appearance, is a new work by director Kim Sung-ho, known for directing Netflix's 'Move to Heaven: I am a Bereavement Counselor' and the drama 'Legal Crazy: Serious Showdown', and is co-produced by SM Entertainment and Take One Company.
