Baek Ji Young and her husband, actor Jung Suk Won, are mourning the loss of their baby after she suffered a miscarriage yesterday. She was four months pregnant.

The singer, known as Queen of the OST for her contribution to kdrama soundtracks, is recovering at a hospital in Seoul.

It has only been three weeks since the singer, 38, married the actor, 28, at a star-studded wedding in Seoul. It has been little more than a month since the couple announced the news of her pregnancy.

A representative from the singer's agency said that they were both shocked and saddened by the news.

"It is very unfortunate," said the statement released by the agency. "We are also in a state of shock. Because it happened so suddenly it is difficult to believe. The couple was so happy when they first heard the news of their pregnancy. It was expected that Baek Ji Young would be in stable condition by the end of this month. We do not know how this could have happened."

It is not always possible to know why miscarriages happen, but the risk of miscarriages does rise if the mother is over 35. Baek Ji Young was very careful about making all her scheduled doctor visits and taking good care of herself. The couple also postponed going on their honeymoon because of her delicate condition.

Many couples choose to wait until the three-month mark to announce a pregnancy because the odds of a miscarriage are greatly reduced by then. Baek Ji Young and Jung Suk Won were so delighted at the idea of becoming parents that they could not wait to share the news. She said she hoped for a son that looked like her handsome actor husband, who appeared in "Rooftop Prince" and "Brilliant Legacy."

"I don't know the gender but first I wish for a son that resembles Jung Suk Won," said Baek Ji Young at her pre-wedding press conference. Since Baek Ji Young and Jung Suk Won both came from families with three children, the couple wants at least three of their own.

Supportive family members remain by her side while she recuperates. Netizens have also been quick to express their support and their hope that the couple's dreams for a large family will soon come true.

Netizens encouraged the couple to find strength and look forward to the time when they will have a beautiful baby. They hoped time would heal the singer's broken heart.
