Singer Lin has posted a cryptic message on social media.
On Wednesday, Lin shared a photo on her Instagram Story showing a piece of paper stuck to a glass pane bearing the words: "So let's do something — whether it's falling in love or traveling."
In small text alongside the image, she added: "With no heart and no time, can something like love or travel even be possible?"
The post followed a message Lin shared on Instagram on Aug. 25, in which she wrote that she had come to realize she had been living in a somewhat numb state — feeling neither sad nor happy, with no particular expectations or disappointments toward anyone or anything. She added that even on such days, she was brought back to her senses by gratitude toward people who made sure she ate well and lifted her spirits.
"Anyway, I am still in a state of mental and physical weakness," she wrote, "but the fortunate thing is that I am standing on a path moving forward, not backward. Even if no one else acknowledges it, if I say that's where I am, then that's where I am."
Lin on divorce from Lee Soo: 'It felt like losing a close friend'
Lin and M.C. the Max member Lee Soo divorced last year after 11 years of marriage.
Lin made her debut in 2000 and built a string of hits including "Saranghaetkana," "Gom Inhyeong," "Maeryeokjaengi" and "Jagiya Yeoboya Saranga." She also gained recognition through drama OST contributions, including "Time Is Turning Back" from "The Moon That Embraces the Sun" and "My Destiny" from "My Love from the Star."
In July, Lin appeared on SBS's My Little Old Boy and said, "I chose divorce, but I actually recommend marriage. I had a truly happy marriage with beautiful memories left in it."
Speaking of her ex-husband Lee Soo, she said: "He was such a close friend. Losing him as a husband is one thing, but what I feel most is the loss of a close friend — that's what makes it hard. We did not part on bad terms. I am always cheering him on."
