About ZOONIZINI

MJ (Kim Myungjun) and JinJin (Park Jinwoo) are the two oldest members of ASTRO and have formalized their bond through their official sub-unit, ZOONIZINI. They debuted as a duo with the mini album 'DICE' and their lead single 'Some Things Never Change.' The title perfectly encapsulates what fans have always loved about this pairing: a friendship that has remained constant through nearly a decade of idol life. MJ and JinJin's ship name 'MyungJin' (or ZOONIZINI as the official unit name) is rooted in a dynamic fans describe as endlessly playful and warm. They are known as the goofiest members of ASTRO, prone to making each other and their fandom (AROHA) laugh, and their natural chemistry was one of the first things that drew fans to the group. JinJin has spoken publicly about how having MJ beside him made their unit album feel like a celebration of everything their long friendship represents.

MJ & JinJin is one of the warmest ships in ASTRO's fandom (AROHA), grounded in nearly a decade of documented friendship and capped by an official sub-unit debut. Fans note that ASTRO's status (the group went on hiatus following members' military service) makes the ZOONIZINI content especially treasured.
