K-pop singer Junggigo revealed Friday tracks from his first solo album, which will be released on Apr. 20.

The entire tracklist of his album “Across the Universe” was posted on his agency Starship Entertainment’s official Facebook account.

The titles and collaborators of 11 tracks are shown on the list.

“Across the Universe” has been highly anticipated because of the “dream team” that collaborated. Chanyeol from popular boy band EXO, Zion T, Crush, Dean, Paloalto and Sik-K contributed.

Junggigo released one track, “Let me love you,” a duet with Chanyeol, on Feb. 23. The song topped Korean charts and placed second on Chinese music chart QQ Music the same day.

The singer wrote on Twitter Friday: “I took a long way to the comeback. This album contains the songs that describe ‘2017 me’ clearly, and the songs I would like to sing to this world.”

Junggigo debuted as a singer with hip-hop duo Infinite Flow in 2002.

Junggigo stepped into stardom after his big hit single “Some,” a duet with Soyou from girl band Sistar in February 2014.

The number topped Gaon music chart for four weeks and won the Hot Trend category in the 2014 Melon Music Awards in November 2014.

The song also claimed the Digital Song category at the 24th High 1 Seoul Music Awards in January 2015.
