Her lawyer Sun Jong Moon told Dispatch over the phone, "Ms. Choi already gave birth at hospital 'B' early this month."

It's said both the mother and the baby are in good health and Ms. Choi has already been discharged from the hospital and is recuperating. 

When asked why this was belatedly revealed, her lawyer responded, "Due to the public interest, we couldn't say anything while she was in the hospital. We hope for your understanding."

Choi's acquaintance also told SBS Fun E, "She gave birth last week. With reporters even coming to the hospital asking for interviews and due to the excessive public interest, we couldn't reveal the news of the birth before."

Ms. Choi is currently said to be preparing a paternity suit against Kim Hyun Joong. "After the mother and the baby have recuperated, we will distinguish the truth of the matter," her lawyer added.
