Former Nine Muses member Keumjo is expecting her first child.
On February 14, Keumjo shared the joyful news on social media, writing, “Pregnancy coming out. 12w 1d.” Along with the announcement, she posted photos of herself and her husband, musical actor Baek Kibum, holding a pregnancy test, as well as ultrasound images of their baby.
In an emotional message, Keumjo opened up about her pregnancy journey. She revealed, “I’ve developed a habit of texting my dad, even though I know there won’t be a reply. We started trying in April, but our baby didn’t come easily. We’re both very healthy, so I kept wondering why. When I was feeling a little exhausted, I asked my dad for the first time. ‘Dad, I’m sorry you left me alone. Then please send me a baby.’ And on December 17, my birthday, I found out about the two lines like a gift.”
Keumjo shared that she and her husband have chosen the baby’s nickname “Parang,” short for “Papa’s love.” She explained that blue has always been her favorite color and added with a smile that she had hoped their first child would be a son who resembles her husband. “As I wished, the genetic test result is… a son! Ta-da,” she happily revealed.
She concluded by carefully sharing the news with fans, writing, “I’m cautiously delivering this pregnancy news to you all. Parang, let’s meet healthily in August when everything is lush and green.”
Keumjo previously promoted as a member of Nine Muses and the sub-unit Nine Muses A. Baek Kibum debuted in the 2013 musical ‘High School Musical’ and has since appeared in productions such as ‘Bachelor’s Vegetable Store,’ ‘Hamlet,’ ‘Pirate,’ ‘Arthur Rimbaud,’ ‘Priest,’ and ‘Mio Fratello.’
The couple first met through the 2019 musical ‘Leaving Work at 6,’ developed into a romantic relationship, and tied the knot in September 2022.
