GOT7's Jinyoung compares his trainee days to his first lead role film 'Snow Flakes' in 'High Cut'

For the recent photo shoot, Jinyoung posed with his co-star Ji Woo. The two actors then discussed their new film in the interview. 

Jinyoung talked about making his big screen debut, and said, "Ji Woo had the first filming for 'Snow Flakes' on the first day of her 20th year. It's also the first movie for me and the debut for the director. On the first day of the year, everything felt like a new beginning and destiny."

He then related his first lead role to himself during his trainee days. He explained, "I lived in Jinhae until 8th grade then moved up when I was a freshman to start training. I had to blend in with people I didn't know and I didn't want to be perceived negatively so I kept on smiling but I actually didn't know much so my insides were burning down. That part was relatable when I was looking at Min Shik in the script. I think that's also when Min Shik and I started to relate to each other."

Actress Ji Woo shared a comment about Jinyoung, saying, "Jinyoung oppa was like the vitamin at the set. I learned and reflected a lot from watching oppa focus in the production."

'Snow Flakes' starring Jinyoung and Ji Woo will be hitting the theaters on March 1.
