Kim Jae-joong of JYJ will launch a career in fashion photography.

Kim’s agency C-Jes Entertainment said Tuesday that the singer-actor will appear in an upcoming variety show “Photo People” (tentative title) which will show him taking up the challenge to become a fashion photographer.

Kim has been learning photography from KT Kim (Kim Kyung-tae), a former Vogue Korea photographer, since last month.

The singer will head to Paris on Sept. 29 to attend 2018 Spring/Summer Paris Fashion Week as a photographer.

“Kim Jae-joong learned photography in his spare time while filming ‘Manhole.’ As it is an area he is trying for the first time, he is showing his passion as he goes out alone taking photos on his days off. (Fans) will be able to see new facets to Kim Jae-joong through the show,” the agency said.

“Photo People” is scheduled to be released in December via Naver TV.
