Director Hong Sang Soo (64) and actress Kim Min Hee (43), who previously caused a stir by publicly acknowledging their affair, have shocked the public once again. This time, they had a child together out of wedlock.

According to sources in the film industry on April 8, Kim Min Hee recently gave birth to a son and stayed at a postpartum care center located in Hanam, Gyeonggi Province. The child may be registered as Hong Sang Soo’s illegitimate son on his family registry, or Kim Min Hee may choose to register the child solely under her own family name.

Earlier in January, news broke that Kim Min Hee was pregnant with Hong Sang Soo’s child. In February, the couple was spotted together at Incheon International Airport, where Kim Min Hee was visibly in the late stages of pregnancy.

Korean netizens are once again talking about the couple and responding to articles in the comments section. They reacted:

"I feel bad for their son."
"That's the fruit of their adultery."
"Congrats on the birth, though."
"I feel bad for the kid. He's going to get fingers pointed at him everywhere he goes."
"I hope they learn what they did."
"I guess it was real love for them..."
"The kid did nothing wrong... but he was born out of adultery..."
"I can't imagine what the kid would go through as he grows up."
"He's registered to his mom only..."
"Kim Min Hee was such a charming actress... She would've spread her wings wider and received so much support if she met someone else..."
"I feel so bad for Hong Sang Soo's wife and his daughter. They would be so devastated reading the news about this."
"Congrats. At least, they're contributing to improving the low birth rate in Korea."
"They would call it love, but we all call it an affair."
"The child will grow up without having a father registered."
"Hong Sang Soo is already 64. Wow..."
