Kim Hye Ja Reunites With Childhood Friend Cha Mi Kyung With Lee Se Young As Her Granddaughter In “Still Shining”

The upcoming film “Still Shining” has unveiled new stills ahead of its premiere.

“Still Shining” depicts the story of Soon Ok (Kim Hye Ja), who reunites with her best friend Jung Im (Cha Mi Kyung) after 60 years—a friend with whom she shared the most brilliant moments of her life.

The newly released stills offer a glimpse of the special bond between Soon Ok and Jung Im, which stretches from their childhood to the present day.

In the stills, young Soon Ok (Park Seo Kyung) and Jung Im (Choi Ju Eun) are best friends who share their dreams and passions while enjoying the most radiant years of their youth. One particularly touching image shows the two pressing their arms together—a gesture that served as a symbol of their friendship in childhood. Even 60 years later, they are shown sharing the same gesture, beautifully illustrating how their bond has remained unchanged despite the passage of time. At the same time, it also remains to be seen what caused the two friends to be separated for so many years.
