Director Hong Sang Soo and actress Kim Min Hee have welcomed a baby boy.

According to sources in the film industry on the 8th, Hong Sang Soo and Kim Min Hee recently had a son. It is reported that the couple stayed at a postpartum care center in Hanam, Gyeonggi Province after the birth.

News of Kim Min Hee’s pregnancy was first revealed in January, although the couple is said to have learned about the pregnancy last summer.

Hong Sang Soo reportedly accompanied Kim Min Hee to a gynecology clinic, and the couple showed little concern for public opinion. Hong Sang Soo and Kim Min Hee publicly acknowledged their romantic relationship at a press conference for the film 'On the Beach at Night Alone' in March 2017 and have maintained their relationship openly since then.
