K-pop singer Jin, a member of the hit boy band BTS, will release his first official solo single next week before the seven-member group starts military duty.
The song, titled The Astronaut, will be released on October 28 at 1:00 pm (0400 GMT), with pre-orders to begin later on Wednesday.
"Since it's a song made with so much love toward the fans, we hope The Astronaut can be a gift to all of you," according to the Bighit Music statement posted on global fandom platform Weverse.
The announcement came after band's management group HYBE, which owns Bighit, on Monday said Jin will cancel a request to further delay his enlistment in late October.
