K-actress Kim Min Hee Spotted Heavily Pregnant at the Airport with Director Partner Hong Sang Soo as They Jet to the Berlin Film Festival
K-actress Kim Min Hee and her director boyfriend/partner Hong Sang Soo, after being in the news constantly for his dating her but being still married to his wife (she refuses to divorce him), went for a few years of being out of the news cycle because how long can K-ent cover this story. That all changed late last year when it was revealed that 40-something Kim Min Hee is pregnant with 60-something Hong Sang Soo’s child, making it a child born out of wedlock or being registered as a child of a single mother. K-netizens naturally had opinions but these two continue to live their lives nonplussed. This week Kim Min Hee was spotted at the airport looking heavily pregnant as she flew to the Berlin Film Festival with Hong Sang Soo, timing wise making it obvious the baby is due soon.
Congrats to the couple. I hate cheaters but by god it’s been almost a decade. I think it’s time to just let it go and let them live. If not for their sake, then at least for the child.
I think the one that should decide to let them go should be the wife and the child of that man. Mind you, a 40 year old woman pregnant is not an easy thing to achieve, I think it’s their move to push the status quo with the legal wife and family.
are the man and his cheating partner thinking about their child? born out of a wedlock with 60 years old father and 40 years old mother, not legally married and know in entire Korea as a cheater couple? why the victim, the public need to care about their children when they don’t?
I agree with your opinion, they’re hella selfish
@Key
The public don’t need to care about their children, do you think they want you or any korean netizen to care about them??
I’m pretty sure they want you and netizens to leave them alone! Kim Min Hee even left her career to live in peace, far away from yours and koreans opinion about her. Although korean directors supported here and she got offers from producers, she could return, but she decided not to.
And yet people who has nothing to do with their personal life, can’t leave them alone and making puritan witch-hunt.
To talk about his wife and his child (his child was fully adult by the way at the moment he left his wife), as they’re the ones who should let him go – EXACTLY!!! It’s their, and their personal business only, I really can’t understand why people like you want to add something bitter under the news about pregnancy of the woman who lives for 10 years with her man. You didn’t even call her by the name but “cheating partner”, lol.
And also “are the man thinking about his child, etc etc” – this is their personal business, this has nothing to do with you to ask such personal question. Don’t put your nose into someone’s personal life just because you’re a gossiper.
The any problem their child can face because of “born out of a wedlock of a famously cheating couple” they would face not because of their parents, but because of the crazy society they’re living in, where people can’t even get the divorce. The most crazy thing is what their child can face any consequences because of their parents personal-life actions, made 10 years before he was born, as the people who has nothing to do with them or their parents, has some personal issues with that, and you’re commenting like there’s nothing wrong with that.
There are a lot of “famously known” cheating couples around the world, one of them Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. I never saw their kids getting any hate train because a father cheated with the mother on his first wife. I never saw anyone even thinking about that. But netizens love to play in saints and putting nose into someone’s personal life’s as it’s their own. And international fans playing along with that, as if you’re some kind of saint person who have the right to judge strangers for their personal life.
Although even the saints said don’t judge others.
No opinion on them but hope netz (i and k) leave the poor baby alone.
They both truly love each other..
Kim Min Hee has the right to have a baby, her partner is married legally because his wife refuses divorce since years . I don’t like cheaters but their marriage is over since many years . The only thing that makes me sad is that the baby may be certainly ostracized by a conservative society . The thing that i hate the most in this world is child abuse of all kinds .
@cahill, Agree…
Btw, I left you a short note on LMH & PM post. I have finding it hard to get around this blog these days.
@Hl i also have the same problem about this blog .
COMMENT UNRELATED TO THE POST !!!!!
It surprised me that the owner of this blog didn’t write about the unfortunate fate of Kim Sae Ron. Perhaps, because she is also one of the people who persecuted her. I hope the poor actress had never stumble upon this blog as an article about her would be scathing. I wish this blog would get take down, not only the owner but the people frequenting this blog have engaged in discussions rather harsh for any artist that I would consider as bullying. However, this comment might never get posted unlike those hate comments whom the owner said would be removed but kept on appearing occasionally. I know that you all know, she never actually meant for this blog to have intellectual conversations and engagements because arguments are more entertaining to read especially fanwars.

She wrote about it tho?
Koala did three separate posts about her. Try clicking the author link (“ockoala”). It is the one way that allows me to continue using this site despite its still unresolved technical issues.
I think you are so emotional for a death of artist .That you don’t have time check your facts. Even korean industry or people are not discussing much because they have boycotted the artist for her actions and not given second chance. Now days good article or good sympathy doesn’t make dead person return but still understand your point view
Alright! I did missed those articles that she wrote about. It was an honest mistake, I truly didn’t see them. I tried clicking “ockoala” and true enough they are there. However, it doesn’t change the fact that the owner of this blog wrote some scathing words about Kim Sae Ron. She even called the actress attention seeker (not verbatim) because of her deleted post with Kim Soo Hyun. Then, on that article about her passing, she wrote words like “with a heavy heart” and “may she find peace and solace” blah blah which I find hypocritical. Too much hypocrisy in this world.
The ironic thing is that despite the hate they receive, I think they’re actually one of the very few celebrity couples who really love each other. Also, I don’t know if it’s true, but I’ve read that he had been trying to divorce the wife even back then, even before Kim Min Hee came to the picture. It’s just that the wife never agreed to it. In that case, I can cut the man some slack for entering an affair, as messed up as that sounds. I mean, what was he supposed to do, continue to be miserable in a marriage he’s stuck in? I would condemn him if he was pretending to love the wife and then cheating behind her back. But in this case, it seems like the marriage has been over even without Kim Min Hee, the wife just wouldn’t let go.
Anyway, I hope KNetz and the media would leave them alone already, especially when there’s a kid in the picture now

I think korean journalists are crazy, to putting pregnant woman on a spotlight, and reactions they getting due to conservatism and huge playing into saints of their society.
I wouldn’t be surprised if some people would love to make walk of a shame or throw a stones at them, very well known things from Medieval ages. People didn’t change, they just turn their crazy reactions on others into comments.
Kim Min Hee’s mental health are very important right now, I hope everything will be okay with her and the baby.
I also not surprised by reaction it got from some people. They could cry over Kim Sae Ron a week ago, to talk how people don’t deserve hate train, how bad it is, only to move on a week after to hate and judge someone else. Not surprised they still didn’t get anything.
