JIN of BTS Reverberates on New Solo EP ‘Echo’: Stream It Now

JIN of BTS has released his solo EP Echo (echo, echo, echo, echo …).

On Friday (May 16), the K-pop star unveiled the project featuring seven tracks: “Don’t Say You Love Me,” “Nothing Without Your Love,” “Loser” featuring YENA, “Rope It,” “With the Clouds,” “Background” and “To Me, Today.” JIN first announced the mini-album about a month prior to its release, with a statement describing Echo as offering the musician’s “perspective on universal life experiences, capturing everyday emotions with warmth and sincerity.”

“Built on dynamic band sounds, the album showcases his versatile vocals across a spectrum of moods and styles,” the description continued at the time. “It reflects a deeper layer of vocal maturity and personal storytelling that underscores Jin’s evolving artistry.”

Echo follows the November release of JIN’s debut solo EP Happy, which reached No. 4 on the Billboard 200. The project featured single “Running Wild,” which marked JIN’s second Billboard Hot 100 entry separate from his mega-famous boy band, following 2022’s “The Astronaut”; the two tracks reached Nos. 53 and 51 on the chart, respectively.

The new EP arrives about a year after JIN became the first member of BTS to be discharged from the South Korean military. After he completed his obligatory service in June, J-Hope finished in October.

RM, Suga, V, Jimin and Jung Kook are still finishing out their commitments, but will be discharged in June. After spending the past two years or so focusing on solo projects, the seven members are expected to reunite soon.

In the meantime, JIN will promote Echo a few days after its release by performing on The Tonight Show Jimmy Fallon! on Wednesday (May 21).
