You need to use inlines. Add this to the admin.py file:

from .models import Group

class GroupInline(admin.TabularInline):
    model = Group.persons.through
    extra = 1

class PersonAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    inlines = [GroupInline]

admin.site.register(Person, PersonAdmin)

See details here.

You can inline "Group" to "Person" with this code below:

admin.py":

from django.contrib import admin
from .models import Group, Person

class GroupInline(admin.TabularInline):
    model = Group

@admin.register(Person)
class PersonAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    inlines = [GroupInline]
