Singing icon Shin Seung-hun will release his 11th album, his management company Dorothy Company said Thursday.

It has been nine years Shin released his 10th regular album in 2006.

The new album is to celebrate the 25th anniversary of his debut in 1990 with the legendary hit song “Your Smile in My Memory.”

Since then, Shin has enjoyed immense popularity, earning the title “The Emperor of Ballads.”

In 1991, his second album “Invisible Love” topped the MBC music chart for 11 weeks and topped the SBS music chart for 14 weeks, which is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records.

The 11th album will contain various music genres, Dorothy Company said.
