NCT's Jeno and Jaemin will star in a sports drama and challenge their acting skills. The drama 'Wind Up' (directed by Kim Sung-ho / written by Byun Jae-cheol) depicts the bright and pure friendship between a high school baseball pitcher who cannot throw strikes and a transfer student who calls himself a manager. 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. Jaemin, who received acclaim for his youthful story in the 2019 drama 'How to Hate You' aired in Korea, is drawing attention for his deepening acting skills. 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. It is scheduled to be released in short-form drama format in the first half of 2026.
