Jisook, a former member of the disbanded girl group Rainbow, will tie the knot with her hacker-turned-computer programmer boyfriend Lee Doo-hee in October.

The singer's agency Starit Entertainment said the two are getting ready for the wedding in the coming months.

"(The couple) just started planning so they will take steps in preparing for the wedding," it said without disclosing the date and place of the ceremony. "As Jisook has a new start ahead, we ask for warm blessings and will do our best to return (the fans') love and support."

The two announced they would marry during the last episode of MBC reality show "Don't Be Jealous," aired on Monday.

The singer and Lee confirmed they were dating last October and started appearing on the show about celebrity couples in March.

Jisook debuted as a member of Rainbow in 2009, and has been going solo since the group disbanded in 2016. She also has starred in various TV shows including, "Lecture" and "Follow Me."

Lee became known to the public after starring in tvN's 2013 survival game show "The Genius: Rule Breaker," in which he gained the nickname "genius hacker."
