SB19's Justin is giving 'Spirited Away' vibes in Jiufen Old Street photos

SB19 member Justin took to social media to share dreamy photos taken at Jiufen Old Street in Taiwan, a location that has long drawn comparisons to the enchanting world of Studio Ghibli’s “Spirited Away.”

In the photos he shared on Instagram, Justin could be seen exploring the picturesque alleyways and staircases of Jiufen surrounded by red lanterns.

Another photo he uploaded shows himself gazing out from the window of a charming teahouse cloaked in vines and red lanterns.

According to an article by National Geographic, while Japanese filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki has denied that Jiufen was an inspiration for “Spirited Away,” many have still drawn a connection to it through its resemblance to the settings in the movie.

SB19 just had a sold-out show in Taipei.

After their successful concert, the P-pop Kings went around Taiwan, looking like stars of “Meteor Garden.”

SB19 dropped their "Simula at Wakas" EP in April. It includes the songs "DAM" and "DUNGKA!"
