Korean singer Heo Young-saeng is gearing up to make his return to the music scene with his second mini-album later this month.

His agency B2M Entertainment announced in a press release this morning that Heo's new album titled, "SOLO," will become available on May 22.

The firm said that the teaser to his title track will be uploaded on May 18 while the full-length video will be released on the same date of his album.

Meanwhile the statement explained that Heo acted as the co-producer and planned out the overall concept for the upcoming release.

Heo made his debut in the five-member group SS501 with their first self-titled album in 2005, releasing various hit songs such as "Snow Prince," U R Man" and "Love Ya."

In June 2009 however, the members of SS501 went separate ways after their contract with DSP Media expired -- Kim Hyun-joong signed with KEYEAST, Park Jung-min with CNR Media and Kim Hyung-joon with S-Plus Entertainment, while Kim Kyu-jong and Heo signed with Lee Hyori's agency B2M Entertainment.

He made his comeback as a solo artist in May 2011 with his first solo album, which produced his hit song "LET IT GO."
