But it seems that he has time till 2023 as he has planned his fan meeting and solo debut album for early next year.

While leaving the 'Princess Aya' conference, Ahgases (GOT7's fans) found Jinyoung's car outside the venue and decided to chat with him. He shared that he was planning a solo fan meeting. To this, fans asked him for more spoilers. In the fancams making the rounds on Ahgase Twitter, fans kept asking if his album and fan meeting would be on his birthday which is in September or next year.
