After weeks of speculation, the rumours that Son Ye-jin is pregnant turned out to be true! As K-drama’s hottest couple, Son announced via her Instagram account that she is expecting a baby with new hubby and Crash Landing on You co-star Hyun Bin.
So, as we wait for more news of the lovebirds’ first child together, we take a look at which other South Korean actresses have recently become proud mamas.
Choi Ji-woo
Choi Ji-woo set an example for women worldwide and showed that it’s never too late to start a family or become a first-time mum. The Stairway to Heaven actress gave birth to her first child in May 2021 at the age of 45 with her husband who is nine years her junior, as per Her World.
Soompi reported that the actress drew a great deal of public attention and support for her pregnancy, considering her age. Her baby was born healthy and adorable as seen in her Instagram posts.
Kang So-ra
Kang So-ra from the popular Doctor Stranger series became a new mum in April 2021 when she welcomed her baby daughter, according to Soompi. The actress tied the knot with her non-celebrity husband in August 2020, and it was revealed that she was expecting her first baby in November.
Hwang Jung-eum
Hwang Jung-eum had her first kid in 2017 with her husband, Lee Young-don, a former professional golfer and businessman. The couple welcomed their second bundle of joy in March this year.
While the two celebs have been blessed with another child, the couple were previously going through a rocky era in their relationship and had filed for divorce, according to The Times of India. Fortunately, the married pair decided to give themselves a second chance and called off the split to welcome their second baby together. All’s well that ends well!
Min Hyo-rin
Min Hyo-rin, famously known for her acting and singing career, is also the wife of K-pop superstar Taeyang from BigBang. The couple first locked eyes in 2014 on the set of Taeyang’s 1AM music video and started dating soon after. They exchanged their wedding vows four years later in 2018.
The couple announced the happy arrival of a healthy baby boy in December 2021, as confirmed by YG Entertainment.
Sung Yuri
Sung Yuri married professional golfer Ahn Sung-hyun in 2017 and announced that she was pregnant on 2021, as per Soompi. Once the actress revealed that her baby was on the way, fans showed their support with a baby must-have checklist, as per Allkpop.
Sung gave birth to two adorable twin daughters in January.
Park Shin-hye
Park Shin-hye of Netflix’s Twenty-Five Twenty-One announced last year that she was getting hitched with fellow actor Choi Tae-joon. The same year, Park and Choi announced through heartfelt letters that they were expecting a child together.
In Park’s letter, she mentioned that she was “nervous” to share the news of her marriage and pregnancy. But she wanted her fans to hear it from her instead of finding out from other sources. A few months after the announcement, she gave birth to a baby boy.
Honey Lee
Posing with a full baby bump for Vogue Korea, Honey Lee’s iconic photo shoot wowed fans. Ever the career-oriented woman, the actress found out that she was carrying a child while shooting for her movie One the Woman, as per Soompi.
The same article also stated that she did all her action stunts while pregnant. She commented, “I filmed action scenes even while pregnant. I really wanted to faithfully fulfil my role as an actress and I also thought that through this strong prenatal education in a safe environment, I’d be able to give birth to a ‘wonder woman’ or ‘wonder man’,” she told Vogue Korea.
She also mentioned that, at the time, she had already bought a baby wardrobe for her arriving newborn. She gave birth to a baby girl in late June.
