Actors Namgoong Min and Jin A-reum will soon become parents.

On the 18th, 935 Entertainment, the agency of Namgoong Min, stated, “A precious new life has come to the acting couple Namgoong Min and Jin A-reum,” and added, “With gratitude and excitement, the two are prioritizing health and stability as they prepare to welcome a new family member.”

However, regarding specifics such as the expected delivery period, the agency said, “We ask for your understanding that it is difficult to disclose, as it falls within the private sphere,” and refrained from further comment.

It added, “We hope you will warmly join in celebrating the precious blessing that has come to Namgoong Min and his family, and we ask for your continued support and interest.”

It became known that the wife of Namgoong Min, Jin A-reum, is currently pregnant and is expected to give birth soon. Jin A-reum is in the late stage of pregnancy, with little time left until the due date, and is focusing on prenatal care.

Namgoong Min and Jin A-reum held a private wedding in October 2022 and became a married couple. On the wedding day, a video of Namgoong Min kneeling to propose was released and drew attention.

The couple has an 11-year age difference; Namgoong Min was born in 1978, and Jin A-reum in 1989. Jin A-reum debuted as a model in 2008, gained attention through ‘Project Runway Korea Season 2’, and appeared in films such as ‘Troubleshooter’ ‘User Manual for Men’.

This pregnancy news is drawing even more attention as it coincides with his return to the small screen. In July, Namgoong Min will return to KBS dramas for the first time in about seven years with the KBS2 Saturday-Sunday drama ‘The Completion of Marriage’.
