Group WEi member Kim Junseo shared his thoughts on his lead role in the new drama ‘Secret Love.’.

WEi will release their 7th mini album ‘The Feelings’ through various music sites at 6PM on the 15th. Prior to this, they held a media showcase at Yes24 Wonderlock Hall in Seodaemun-gu, Seoul and personally introduced their new mini album.

On this day, Kim Junseo said, “‘I passed the audition that I prepared hard for and got the lead role in ’Secret Love.’We were really busy in terms of our schedules as we prepared for the album together. Actually, I really like being busy. I was so grateful,” he said with a laugh.

’Secret Between‘ he stars in is a BL (Boys Love) drama that contains the complicated and subtle romance of four men who are terribly entangled in secrets. Kim Jun-seo, who is challenging acting for the first time since his debut, plays the role of Jeong Da-on, a graduate of a prestigious university who takes responsibility for his debt-ridden parents and younger sibling.

Kim Jun-seo said, “I show off my talents on stage, but I got to immerse myself in my characters on set. It was fun living as different characters,” looking back on the filming. He also said that while filming the music video for the title song ’Not Enough‘, he remembered his birthday and said, “So this new album feels like a gift to me,” receiving applause from the members.

Meanwhile, ‘The Feelings’ is his first album in 1 year and 7 months since his 6th mini-album ‘Love Part 3: Eternally’. The title song ‘NOT ENOUGH’ is a dreamy melody that expresses the confusion of longing and fear for ‘you’ in the midst of a wait with no end in sight.
