On the 21st, Jung Jae Hyung's YouTube channel 'Fairy Jae Hyung' released a video titled 'But your son is so beautiful, Ye Jin.. I guess genes can’t be helped?', where actress Son Ye Jin proudly showed off the striking looks of her son, who turns 3 years old this year.
During the broadcast, Jung Jae Hyung said, "I heard Gong Hyo Jin often say that your baby is really beautiful. When I saw your childhood photos, you looked just like a child actor. If your baby resembles you, he must be truly beautiful."
In response, Son Ye Jin admitted, "Honestly, the baby is really beautiful. But because people might later say his visuals are 'not to that level,' I’ll show you his face on my phone so you can judge objectively," and revealed the photo.
Son Ye Jin then showed Jung Jae Hyung photos and videos of her son. Surprised, Jung Jae Hyung gasped and said, "I usually don’t like babies that much, but he’s really beautiful."
Beaming with pride, Son Ye Jin added, "And he’s a boy," suggesting that her son is as pretty as a daughter would be.
Son Ye Jin remarked, "Normally people say 'I hope the baby resembles the father' or 'I hope the baby resembles the mother.' But for us, we hope he looks like both of us."
She continued, "Honestly, I didn’t really like babies either. When I heard mothers say that the greatest thing they ever did was giving birth, I would just think 'I see,' but I never imagined I’d feel the same way. My child is something I would never trade for anything. That love is unconditional."
Son Ye Jin also shared, "I work, I have to take care of the baby, manage the household, and since I’m a perfectionist, I have to do everything at once, which makes me really busy," opening up about her life as a working mom.
She then praised her husband, saying, "The best thing about my husband is that he never says 'I wish you would do this for me' or 'I wish you wouldn’t do that.'" Jung Jae Hyung replied, "He’s so kind then," and added, "I can even see the love in your eyes as you talk about him," expressing admiration for the couple’s strong bond.
Seeing Jung Jae Hyung's reaction, netizens compared it with Shin Dong Yup's, who had also shared previously that he was shocked by how beautiful and handsome their son was. At the time, Shin Dong Yup had said, "He is so handsome. Usually, it's not easy for anyone to feel and describe a baby as 'handsome,' but he really is handsome."
Netizens’ curiosity about their son has only grown, and they are already jokingly clamoring for him to "become a future K-pop star," anticipating the day he might enter the entertainment industry where they could follow and discuss him as a celebrity.
More netizen comments include:
"Sorry, but please have more children so both the K-pop scene and the drama and film scene can be equally blessed."
"So what does he look like then? Am I not allowed to see that?"
"Come to K-pop."
"I can look forward to him, right?"
"I’ll be waiting."
"Where else would the parents’ genes go?"
"Please have a daughter too."
"Won Bin and Lee Na Young’s son is also really, really handsome."
"Jun Ji Hyun’s sons are good-looking too."
"I heard Jang Dong Gun and Go So Young’s kids are really handsome as well."
"I will wait for 20 years."
Meanwhile, Son Ye Jin married Hyun Bin in 2022 and gave birth to their son in November of the same year. She is set to return to the big screen with Park Chan Wook's film 'No Other Choice,' which opens in Korean theaters on September 24.
