Some people speculate that Ahn Young Mi is taking part in birth tourism, which is the practice of traveling to another country to give birth to obtain citizenship for the child.
Someone commented on Ahn Young Mi's Instagram saying, "Even if you have money and influence in Korea, there are obligations you need to fulfill. If you don't want to give birth in Korea without your husband, then you should live in the U.S., why are you just going there and returning? That is birth tourism. That isn't something a public figure should do.
Ahn Young Mi bravely responded that it was too early to worry about her child's military obligations, "Rather than make speculations about the future, how about blessing the child in my stomach?"
