Singer Shin Hye-sung will reveal a new digital single this week, ahead of the release of his fourth full-length album next month.

According to J Story, Shin is set to release a song titled “Come a bit closer” (translated title) on May 12, a duet song of the same name he sang with Young-jun of male R&B group Brown Eyed Soul.

The tune, which is a soul ballad written and composed by famed composition duo JAY & JUN, will be Shin’s second time singing with Young-jun following their first collaboration under Lyn’s project album in 2008.

The song will also be one of the tracks to Shin's upcoming studio album, his first in two years, set to hit stores in June.

The album was supposed to be released in late-February but was pushed back after Shin suffered problems to his vocal chords.

Born Jung Pil-kyo, Shin Hye-sung made his debut as one of the main vocalist for the popular boy band Shinhwa in 1998.

He embarked on a solo singing career in May 2005 and released several albums in Korea as well as expanding his career into Japan.
