Disclosed is a cathode active material providing a cell performance that is not adversely affected by overdischarge, and a lithium secondary cell using the same. More particularly, the cathode active material for a lithium secondary cell comprises a lithium-transition metal oxide capable of lithium ion intercalation/deintercalation, wherein the cathode active material further comprises a lithium manganese oxide having a layered structure represented by the following formula 1 as an additive:[formula 1] LiM<SUB>x</SUB>Mn<SUB>1-x</SUB>0<SUB>2 </SUB>wherein, x is a number satisfying 0.05 x<0.5, and M is at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Cr, Al, Ni, Mn and Co. The lithium manganese oxide of formula 1 used as an additive for a cathode active material of a lithium secondary cell provides lithium ions in such an amount as to compensate for an irreversible lithium ion-consuming reaction at an anode, or more, thereby providing a lithium secondary cell which is low in capacity loss by over-discharge.
