BTS member Jin is aiming to drop his debut solo album in November. Following the release of the full version of his global hit Super Tuna on Oct 11, his record label has responded to a report that claimed his new record will arrive next month.

BigHit Music said in a statement: "Jin is currently preparing for a new album with the goal of releasing it in November. The detailed information will be disclosed once it is confirmed."

The 31-year-old star is the final member of the K-pop boy band – Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V, Jungkook – to release a solo album.

Speaking to Weverse Magazine, Jin teased: "[The BTS members] all finished making their own albums before enlisting. “That made me think I better not wait too long to release mine after his is out, so I’m working to get it done fast.”

His 2022 debut solo single The Astronaut was co-written by Coldplay, and was released after the chart-topping septet teamed up with Chris Martin and co on the 2021 hit My Universe.

The music star, whose real name is Kim Seok-jin, had been working as an assistant drill instructor at a training facility in South Korea as part of his conscription. Upon his return, he hugged 1,000 fans at a special homecoming event.

The day after he was discharged from his mandatory army stint in June, Jin treated fans to a performance of the extended version of 2021’s ‘Super Tuna’ as part of BTS' Festa celebrations.

He later confessed he was on the brink of bursting into tears but didn't want to show his fans how "emotional" he was feeling.

He said: “When you’re in the army, there’s a lot of restrictions in place, and none of the stuff you have is your own, which isn’t always easy.

“But once I was onstage, I had my fans in front of me, my own mic and in-ears, and everything about it felt like I remembered. It felt like I was home.”

He added: "The fans might not want to hear this, but I tried really hard not to let the feeling sink in.

“I mean, it was the very next day after I got out of the army. I didn’t have much time to practise, and it’d been forever since I last sang.”
