42-year-old actress Kim Min Hee is pregnant with her first child, fathered by 64-year-old filmmaker boyfriend, Hong Sang-Soo.
The couple's pregnancy comes after being in a long-term relationship since meeting on the set of a film in 2015. Reports suggest that least last summer, she had realized she was pregnant.
Kim Min-Hee is reportedly in the second half of her pregnancy and is expected to give birth in the spring of this year. The pair now live together in Hanam after Hong has moved out of his Apgujeong home, which he shares with his wife.
Dispatch has captured photos of the couple doing things such as grocery shopping and dating.
Witnesses said that Kim Min Hee was driving, with Hong sitting in the passenger seat. Others have said Hong has begun taking driving lessons again as she prepares for life with a baby.

The duo was seen together again on Jan. 15 at an OB/GYN appointment. Hong was reportedly unfazed by Kim's doctor's visit by the surrounding crowd while remaining by Kim's side during her examination.
Kim Min Hee and Hong Sang-Soo have publicly acknowledged their nearly 9-year affair, which they confirmed on record in 2017.
He was married in 1985 to a non-celebrity while studying abroad in the U.S. and has been criticized for effectively abandoning his family in order to pursue his relationship with Kim.
Recently, the two have made headlines for their many public kissing sessions and matching couple rings.
That announcement has received a lot of press, though, especially considering the couple is still figuring out their relationship, not to mention their future role as parents.
