South Korean singer-actor Lee Seung-gi aims to release a new album between April and May, local media reported Monday.

The new album, which comes more than two years after the EP “Forest” in November 2012, was meant to be unveiled in March, but was pushed back to April due to Lee’s hectic schedule.

Since wrapping up promotional activities for his latest film “Love Forecast,” Lee has been working on the album around the clock to release it by May.

In an earlier interview with a media outlet, he raised expectations about the album, saying, “I am working on a new album with a musician I have liked for a long time.”

The 28-year-old recently made his big-screen debut with the rom-com flick “Love Forecast,” released on Jan. 14. In the film, he played a sweet, unassuming elementary school teacher in love with a childhood friend, played by actress Moon Chae-won.

Since then, Lee has focused on his acting career, starring in numerous TV series and films.

Lee debuted in 2004 at age 17 with the nationwide hit “Because You’re My Girl.”
