Choi Young-jae, a member of K-Pop boy-band Got7 and better known to his army of fans simply as Youngjae, is following in the footsteps of his bandmates as he gets set to launch a solo album this October.
Youngjae used his birthday - 17 September - to tremendous effect as this was the day he released a teaser video through his official YouTube channel to prepare fans for his solo debut. The black and white film shows Youngjae thinking deeply about something while writing and then rubbing out English words on a blank piece of paper.

The debut album is named 'Colors from Ars' - 'Ars' being the artist's nom de plume when he is writing lyrics and composing his enticing melodies, taken from the Latin saying 'Ars longa, vita brevis' (Art lives forever, though life is short).
Youngjae sprang to fame in 2014 when he had a debut as a main vocalist of JYP Entertainment's Got7 boy band.
In the past seven years he has taken a large part in lyric writing and composing songs for the band, and fans, named AhGaSes - word play on IGot7 - now have a chance to sample Youngjae's unalloyed talent.
The album is set to be released on 5 October and AhGaSes are finding it nigh-on impossible to contain their excitement at such a thrilling prospect from their beloved idol.
