BTS’s Jin is back — and he’s ready to make waves with his emotional new mini-album “Echo,” set to release on May 16, 2025. Titled after the poignant lead single “Don’t Say You Love Me,” the album dives deep into themes of love, longing, and the echoes of relationships that refuse to fade.
To celebrate this long-awaited comeback, Jin is hosting a special fan event in Seoul that promises live music, heartfelt conversations, and an unforgettable connection with ARMY.
Fan Event ‘Don’t Say You Love Me @Seongsu’ Set for May 17
The ‘Don’t Say You Love Me @Seongsu’ event will take place on May 17 at 2 p.m. KST at Anderson in Seongsu-dong, Seoul. Announced through Weverse, the intimate gathering will feature live performances of new songs, including the title track from Echo, and special interactions with fans.
Jin will open up about the stories and emotions behind his new music, creating a shared space of reflection and warmth with those who’ve supported him throughout his journey.
Dress Code and Host: Denim & Ji Seok-jin
The fan event isn’t just about the music—-it’s a full experience. Inspired by the concept photos from Echo, the dress code is denim, encouraging attendees to align with the album’s visual and emotional vibe. The setting is designed to be relaxed, cosy, and personal—much like Jin’s new songs.
Adding to the charm of the event is host Ji Seok-jin, a beloved broadcaster and Jin’s longtime friend from shows like SBS’s Running Man and Run, Seok-jin. Their chemistry is sure to bring laughter and lightness to the emotionally rich event.

Fans across the globe can still be part of the moment—the event will be live-streamed via Weverse, giving international ARMY a chance to experience the music and emotions in real time. Details about streaming access will be released soon through BTS’s official Weverse channel.
Jin’s Second Fan Event: A High-Touch Moment on May 18
Jin isn’t stopping at one event. On May 18, he’ll host a high-touch fan meet at a cinema in Seoul, giving fans another opportunity for a more personal encounter. This two-day-fan-focused rollout reflects just how deeply Jin values his connection with ARMY.
What to Expect from ‘Echo’ and ‘Don’t Say You Love Me’
The mini album ‘Echo’ explores the lingering feelings we carry through different stages of life and love—much like an echo that resonates long after the moment has passed. The title track, “Don’t Say You Love Me,” touches on the emotional conflict of being unable to let go, even when love begins to hurt.
Combining his soothing vocals and introspective lyrics, Jin is set to deliver an album that’s both musically rich and emotionally moving. It’s a significant moment for Jin as this marks his first solo music release since completing military service.
