Singer Lee Sun-hee, 56, broke up with her husband earlier this year, ending their 14-year marriage.
The artist's agency Hook Entertainment confirmed Wednesday that the couple had mutually agreed to divorce in February. The reason is unknown.
Lee herself did not directly mention her divorce.
"Six years of waiting… My 16th album will come out on June 15. You'll find it on the Melon website," she tweeted. "How am I doing ... Well, nothing special. No big deal…" She did not mention her marriage.
Lee married her non-celebrity husband, surnamed Jung, in 2006. It was her second marriage. She previously married her first husband, a music producer, in 1992, and they separated after six years.
According to the agency, despite the divorce, the singer has been working on her 16th album. She plans to release the first part "Part 1" on June 15, and "Part 2" this fall.
The seasoned singer made her big debut with her song "To J" at the Gangbyeon Song Festival in 1984. She has released several successful albums such as "I Want to Know" (1986), "I Always Miss You" (1988) and her latest album "Serendipity" in 2014.
