Actress Kim Min Hee and director Hong Sang Soo made headlines earlier this week, after Dispatch revealed that Kim Min Hee is now pregnant from the couple's extramarital affair. The two have been in a long-term relationship for nearly 10 years, after meeting on the set of Hong Sang Soo's film 'Right Now, Wrong Then.' Hong Sang Soo currently has a wife and daughter, but was unable to legally get a divorce, and now lives with Kim Min Hee in Hanam, Gyeonggi province.
Reactions to news of the couple's extramarital pregnancy have been mixed, with the controversy increasing after recent reports of Hong Sang Soo and Kim Min Hee's public outings. According to eyewitness accounts, the two were seen affectionately calling each other "honey" while out in public. One eyewitness reported to OSEN that while shopping, Kim Min Hee would call Hong Sang Soo over and say, "Honey, what about this?"
The witness stated, "The two used a comfortable mixture of both informal language and honorifics." They added that the couple walked slightly apart and were careful not to touch, behaving in a way that seemed conscious of being watched by those around them.
Another informant reported seeing Kim Min Hee at a cafe, wearing a very baggy outfit. The informant stated that Kim Min Hee's clothes seemed much more comfortable and baggy than before, and that the actress did not appear pregnant at first glance (despite being six months along in her pregnancy) because her stomach didn't stick out very much.
Meanwhile, Kim Min Hee's expected delivery date is sometime this spring. The couple is currently living near Kim Min Hee's family home.
