We had Mideumi and now we’re expecting our second child. She’s almost 8 weeks along. Since Areum is pregnant, she and I will continue to look ahead and live even more diligently for the future, staying healthy. The past doesn’t matter. What’s great is that the baby is healthy. We’re naming the baby La Hwa. Here’s to an honest, hard-working days ahead. Everyone, please stay healthy!

The former T-ARA starlet let her followers know that she welcomed her third baby on October 1, and they were thankfully both healthy. Due to the numerous controversies she has been involved in this year, many netizens have been curious about her pregnancy and how it is going.
Now, all the questions about my child should be resolved. I cannot express how heartbreaking it was to read comments suggesting I had an abortion or other unmentionable things. I was hurt by people who questioned why my baby, who was living and breathing in my womb and deserved only love, had to face such speculation.

Areum’s last two pregnancies have been with her new boyfriend, whom she started dating after divorcing her ex-husband. She married her ex in 2019, and they have two sons together. The family has been part of a huge scandal, with Areum most recently being accused of child abuse and neglect by her former husband.
I am someone who deeply loves children. I have always loved kids, so just imagine how much more I cherish my own. My maternal instinct is extremely strong. I’m always at a loss for words when I see speculative articles about my children.

Additionally, Areum and her boyfriend are also accused of fraud. The two allegedly borrowed approximately ₩37.0 million KRW (about $26,300 USD) from three acquaintances (including Ahreum’s fans) and have failed to repay the money.
