"Can't wait" Fans react as Super Junior's Yesung announces full-length album

Super Junior's vocalist Yesung aka Kim Jong-woon has given his fans an exciting start to the new year by announcing his highly anticipated comeback.

On January 2, 2023, an official representative from his agency, Label SJ, told a Korean media outlet that the singer is currently preparing to release his first solo full-length album this month.

The 38-year-old artist made his solo debut back in 2016 with the EP Here I Am. Since then, he has released multiple solo albums including Pink Magic and Spring Falling. His most recent release was Beautiful Night in 2021.

Though the upcoming album will be his first full-length album in Korea, the singer has previously released a full-length Japanese album titled Story. However, Yesung's fans erupted in excitement at the news of his comeback, describing it as a great start to the year.
