How to store Arraylist data in postgresql

Question

I am trying to write Arraylist<String> to postgresql. but getting below error.

ERROR: column "data" is of type character varying[] but expression is of type bytea
  Hint: You will need to rewrite or cast the expression.

If someone knows which data type i should use for column to store arraylist content in postgresql?

Are you using JPA, Spring Data?

Have you looked up for @ElementCollection ? I think it's gonna be helpful.
