Fans are eagerly anticipating the release after the teaser for 'Don't Say You Love Me' was unveiled on May 13th, featuring actress Shin Sae-kyeong in a romantic concept. Following the success of his first solo album 'Happy', which reached No. 4 on the Billboard 200 chart and was the third best-selling album in the US, 'Echo' is expected to showcase a shift in genre.

The highlight medley for 'Echo', released on May 12th, offers a glimpse into the instrumental tracks of the album's seven songs. Starting with the melodic 'Don't Say You Love Me', the album progresses to the upbeat 'Nothing Without Your Love' and features a strong rock theme in the third track 'Loser (feat. Yena)'. The cowboy-themed 'Rope It' adds a unique twist, while 'With The Clouds' and the rock ballad hint at the album's diverse sound. Closing with 'To Me, Today', Jin's signature vocals shine through with stable and powerful falsetto. In addition to the album release, Jin has announced his first solo world tour, 'Run Seokjin Ep Tour', starting on June 28th in South Korea and spanning across Japan, the USA, London, and Amsterdam. With a total of 18 shows, each city will host 2 performances, promising an unforgettable experience for fans.
