Jin About His Album

The K-pop idol, who was discharged from the South Korean military in June this year, teased his fans about the upcoming album during a live session. “My album work? It has been a while since I finished recording. The mix and masters are done. I would be really thankful if you could wait a little bit. The songs are good, so I listen to them from time to time,” he said back then.

With this album, Jin will become the final member of BTS to release a solo project, following previous works from Jimin, Jungkook, Suga, RM and J-Hope. Meanwhile, full group activities have been on hold as the other members are still completing their military service. BTS is expected to reunite in 2025.
