Singer Kim Jong Kook will return to the stage with his new album in May.

SBS's 'Running Man' member Kim Jong Kook will be making his comeback next month. According to a music representative, "Kim Jong Kook's new album is somewhat belated. Originally, he had planned to release the album in March, however due to issues with the song arrangements, the album release has been delayed."

It has been one year and eight months since his 2010's title track 'Song.' With his upcoming album, Kim Jong Kook also established his own agency, JK Entertainment (using the initials of his first name).

After gaining fame through duo Turbo, Kim Jong Kook has positioned himself as a representative of male solo artists in Korea through hit songs, 'One Man,' 'This Is The Person,' and 'Today More Than Yesterday' as well as a regular on variety shows 'Family Outing' and 'Running Man.'
