Seoul: Jin of K-pop boy group BTS will release his second solo album titled "Echo" next month, his agency BigHit Music said Tuesday. The seven-track EP will be dropped at 1 p.m. on May 16, marking Jin's first solo release in six months since "Happy" in November.
According to Yonhap News Agency, the album's earlier-than-expected release reflects Jin's desire to connect with his fans more frequently, as stated by the agency. To promote the upcoming release, a video message was unveiled earlier in the day on the K-pop Square screen at the COEX exhibition center in southern Seoul. The video will play every 30 minutes from 6 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. daily until Saturday.
