sparkle, clear, crystal
晶 centers on pure, bright light: something sparkling, clear, or crystalline. The idea of a crystal is a natural extension of that clear, sparkling quality.
晶 is composed of three 日 (sun) elements, representing many bright lights together, conveying sparkle, clarity, or crystal.
Three suns 日 stacked together shine with intense, clear light. Imagine a crystal catching the sun and sparkling brilliantly.
For ショウ, picture a crystal-clear show of sparkling lights: show -> ショウ, and the three suns put on a dazzling performance.
