2PM's Nichkhun will release his first Korean solo album titled "ME" this month.

It is a Korean version of his Japanese solo album of the same title, which was released in Japan in December.

JYP Entertainment said Sunday that the group's Thai-American member will meet his Korean fans with the new album ― set to be officially released at 6 p.m. on Feb. 18 via major online streaming services.

The agency put teaser images of the album on JYP's and 2PM's official social media.

Nichkhun has been active in China and other parts of Asia over the past few years.

He won the Asia Influential Excellence Award at the 2019 Fashion and Entertainment Influence Awards in Beijing on Jan. 15. He toured Beijing and Nanjing to meet fans late last year and played a leading role in Chinese TV show "Shall We Fall in Love."

A Thai movie, "Brother of the Year," starring Nichkhun will be released in Korea next month.
