Speaking of ‘Salmokji’, it recently surpassed 3 million viewers, making it quite the talk of the town!
As for Bae Jinyoung, he made a successful re-debut as a solo artist last October, following his departure from the group CIX in 2024. He even held a solo fan meeting in November, captivating fans with his incredibly mature visuals! Remember his adorable image from ‘Produce 101 Season 2’, where he was a top visual alongside Park Jihoon? Well, he’s now radiating an even more sophisticated charm.
