Singer and actor Bae Jin-young, a member of the K-pop boy group, CIX, will be starring in "The Antique Shop," a movie jointly produced by Thai and Singaporean filmmakers. It will be his debut on the big screen.

The film's production studio, LeayDoDee Studio, shared the poster for the upcoming film on its social media, Friday, showing Bae, along with the other cast members.

The three-part horror film, which will premiere in June, revolves around an antique shop that contains different items. Each part of the story unfolds based on the store's inventory.

Bae will play the lead character named Song, co-starring with Singaporean actors Damien Teo and Xu Bin.

The singer and actor rose to stardom after competing in the popular K-pop survival show "Produce 101" in 2017. He made it into the top 11 finalists and debuted in the project group, Wanna One, which has since disbanded, before making another debut as a member of the five-piece boy group, CIX, in 2019.

CIX has released various hit songs, including the single "Cinema," which was named the best K-pop song of 2021 by Time magazine. It kicked off its first solo concert, "CIX 1st Concert <REBEL>," in Seoul in April and is currently touring in the U.S. until May 10, in cities including San Francisco, Chicago and New York.

Bae also diversified his career into acting after landing the lead role in the teen web series, "User Not Found," late last year.
