Singer and actor Kim Jae-joong is back with a new album rooted in rock.

Kim will release his new mini album, "Beauty in Chaos," on May 19. A teaser image shared on his official social media channels features a shattered electric guitar and scattered fragments of broken glass, building anticipation for the powerful new music he is about to unveil.

Previously, Kim hinted at the rock concept of the album by posting the phrase "Rock Jaejoong is back" on his personal social media.

Leading up to and following the album's release, Kim has been actively engaging with fans. Earlier this year, he visited Japan, Macao and other locations for his birthday celebration fan meeting event, "J-Party Home." He also recently wrapped up a special fan meeting in Chongqing, China.

Right after the album’s release, Kim will kick off the "Beauty in Chaos" Asian tour, with concerts at Jangchung Arena in Seoul on May 24 and 25, where he will perform tracks from the new album for the first time. The tour continues in Japan on May 31 and June 1, with additional dates and locations to be announced soon.
