Min Hye-yeon (41), a Seoul National University graduate and physician who is married to actor Joo Jin-mo (52), personally announced her pregnancy.

On the 14th, Min shared a photo of herself with Joo Jin-mo along with an ultrasound image of the baby, accompanied by a lengthy statement about her feelings.

"I had been preparing to gradually share updates on YouTube once I reached the stable period," Min wrote. "In late summer of 2026, a baby came to us like a gift."

She continued, "We had always thought it was best for just the two of us to live happily together and kept putting it off... But as we reached our eighth year of marriage and considered our ages, around early summer... we began to talk about it seriously again. We decided to try for a baby this year, and right away (?!) it felt like the baby came to us as if on cue... We were a bit surprised and caught off guard... But we are preparing with gratitude and joy."

Min added, "Thank you so much for all the congratulations already. I will share more details through YouTube. Thank you."

Previously, Joo Jin-mo's agency, KHS Agency, told StarNews on the 14th that "Min Hye-yeon is currently pregnant," adding, "However, since she is still in the early stages and it is a delicate time, it is difficult to provide specific details. As this is happy news, we ask for your blessings and support."

Joo Jin-mo married Min Hye-yeon in 2019. They welcomed their second child seven years after their marriage.
