It was in honour of his new solo album, titled Echo.

Tuesday night,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/miu-miu-tales-and-tellers-performance-new-york-fashion-film-news" title="Miu Miu Brings &quot;Tales &amp; Tellers&quot; to New York with Fashion and Film" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York City</a>&nbsp;lit up&mdash;literally&mdash;as&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/jewellery/bts-jin-new-force-10-rise-collection-campaign-by-fred-jewelry-jewellery" target="_blank" title="Jin of BTS Shows Off The New Force 10 Rise by FRED in Latest Campaign " rel="noopener">BTS&rsquo; Jin</a>&nbsp;illuminated the&nbsp;Empire State Building&nbsp;in honour of his second solo album, titled&nbsp;Echo. In true&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/culture/rookie-k-pop-girl-group-kiiikiii-debut-album-uncut-gem-btg-music-celebrity-interview" target="_blank" title="Exclusive! KiiiKiii Speaks on Their Bold Entrance Into K-Pop With 'UNCUT GEM'" rel="noopener">K-pop</a>&nbsp;fashion, the moment was perfectly over-the-top.
The lighting ceremony, held in Midtown Manhattan, wasn&rsquo;t just a publicity stunt&mdash;it was a reflection of&nbsp;Echo's deeper meaning to Jin. Addressing fans and press alike, he shared, &ldquo;It&rsquo;s a great honor to be here with you today. Thank you so much for inviting me.&rdquo;
The Empire State Building shined in a palette of blue, pink, yellow, and white&mdash;each hue carefully selected to mirror the emotional wavelengths of the album. According to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/jewellery/jin-bts-fred-jewelry-new-year-campaign" target="_blank" title="BTS Jin Shows Off His FRED Jewelley Picks for the New Year" rel="noopener">Jin</a>, blue symbolises hope, pink represents love, yellow conveys joy, and white marks new beginnings. Together, each colour was a fitting tribute to a project that captures the highs and lows of human connection.

&ldquo;Each song, like an echo, conveys heartfelt messages reflecting love, friendship, and the journey we share together,&rdquo; he added. Despite the colours of the ceremony, he kept his outfit more lowkey, wearing a tailored black suit jacket, embroidered with red florals, and matching trousers.&nbsp;
Released on May 16,&nbsp;Echo&nbsp;plays like a sonic diary&mdash;raw, reflective, and resonant. And by lighting up one of the most iconic buildings in the world, Jin didn&rsquo;t just mark the release&mdash;he turned it into a shared experience for one of the most dedicated fan bases in the world.&nbsp;
It&rsquo;s not every day an artist gets to take over New York&rsquo;s skyline, but <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/fashion-breakdown-bts-jin-running-wild-music-video-celebrity-music-k-pop" title="A Fashion Breakdown of BTS Jin&rsquo;s &lsquo;Running Wild&rsquo; Music Video" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jin from BTS</a>'&nbsp;star power&nbsp;made the city feel just a little more personal last night.
