Jin discussed album progress in a recent Weverse session
Jin, who was discharged from the South Korean military in June this year, recently spoke about his album during a live session on Weverse. He said he had finished recording and the mix and masters for songs were done a few weeks ago. "I would be thankful if you could please wait a little bit," he said, adding he sometimes listens to the songs because they're good.
Meanwhile, Jin has been busy with a Netflix show
Apart from his album work, Jin also revealed that he had been filming a Netflix variety show titled Kian's Bizarre B&B. "I don't know how well I did. I stayed there for about 10 days for filming," he shared during the same live session on Weverse. Meanwhile, he made headlines by removing one of his most popular solo tracks, Super Tuna—which had 136M streams—from all music platforms. He then replaced it with an extended version of the song.
