Singer Kim Jong-un, a former member of the project group Maroniye, announced his divorce after 22 years of marriage.

A source close to Kim Jong-un told StarNews on the 22nd that "Kim Jong-un recently finalized an amicable divorce" and stated, "It was agreed that Kim Jong-un would retain custody."

Previously, Kim Jong-un married fellow musician Choi Mo-ssi, who is two years his senior, in 2004 and had a son in 2011. The couple continued their marriage until recently, when they finalized an amicable divorce due to personality differences and other reasons, becoming legally separated.

His agency issued an official statement on the same day, saying, "We deeply regret having to reach out with such unfortunate news to those who have cared for Kim Jong-un." The agency added, "Due to personality differences, after careful deliberation and observing the cooling-off period set by the court, Mr. Kim Jong-un recently concluded his approximately 20-year marriage through an amicable divorce."

The statement continued, "Mr. Kim Jong-un has been granted custody of the child from the couple, and they have reached a conclusion to maintain a good relationship through a smooth agreement." It further added, "We ask for your understanding that we cannot confirm other detailed matters as they pertain to privacy, and we respectfully request that you refrain from malicious comments and speculative reporting."

Kim Jong-un debuted with Maroniye in 1994 and gained popularity in 1995 with songs such as "Proposal" and "I Love You." Recently, he appeared on KBS 1TV's "Back to the Music" to share his current status.

Meanwhile, Kim Jong-un is scheduled to resume activities by releasing a new song titled "Mom Was Beautiful," which he personally wrote lyrics for, in November.
