YouTuber Honorary British (real name Baek Jin-kyung) is leaving Korea to give birth.

On the 14th, Baek Jin-kyung posted on her personal SNS: "I'm at the airport. It's so hot I could die. Friends, see you next year. I'm going to become a mother♥."

Baek Jin-kyung married her British husband, who is three years younger than her, in March 2023. She is currently pregnant and is set to give birth to her first daughter this December.

However, she recently appeared on a YouTube channel and said, "I plan to give birth not in Korea but in the UK," sparking allegations of overseas childbirth.

Regarding this, Baek Jin-kyung expressed anger, saying, "Why is it such a big issue that I'm giving birth in the UK? My husband is British, and I live in London. What about those who say I'm doing this just to get British citizenship?"

She further stated her position: "The UK does not follow jus soli (birthright citizenship). Even if you give birth on British soil, at least one parent must be British for the child to receive citizenship. Jus soli applies only in the United States. It's truly strange and ridiculous for people to claim I'm doing this so my 'half Korean, half British' baby can get citizenship or something like that."
