Actor Choi Seong-guk is becoming a father of two. Following his first child, 'Chuseok,' he shared the news of his second pregnancy with his 24-year-younger wife, receiving congratulations and support from viewers.

On the 9th, the TV Chosun entertainment show 'Lovers of Joseon' depicted the family's changed daily life.

The opening of the show began at Choi Seong-guk's home, where he said, "I put down mats to prevent floor noise, and I also made a separate room for my son Siyoon (the baby name Chuseok)." He introduced his recently remodeled house. The MCs admired the house, which has a spacious bed for the whole family to relax together, saying, "It feels like a completely new home."

Then came a surprising confession. Choi Seong-guk announced, "Siyoon is getting a sibling," revealing the pregnancy news. As everyone expressed their surprise, he confessed, "I entered a stable condition in early June, and I'm about 11 weeks along now." The baby name for the second child is 'Hambak.' He added, "The due date is during the seasonal event 'Daeseol,' so at first, I called it 'Daeseol,' but since the feeling of a stomachache reminded me of heavy snow, I decided on 'Hambak,'" sharing a heartwarming backstory.

Choi Seong-guk had previously expressed his deep thoughts when he held his first child, Chuseok. He said, "My wife needed a name to call [the baby] right now, so when I asked about the due date, it was around the Chuseok holiday. So I named him 'Chuseok.' I didn't care whether it was a son or a daughter," demonstrating a humble attitude.

Regarding child education, he said, "Looking at those around me, they send their kids to study and taekwondo, but I don't have any specific expectations. I just want to raise them to be good adults," and added, "Right now, I don't want to hope for anything from Chuseok; I just wish for them to grow up healthy and kind."

Choi Seong-guk, who wants to be an 'unselfish dad' to his children, is now becoming a father of two at the age of 54. Viewers and internet users have sent warm support, saying, "From Chuseok to Hambak, they're so cute," and "I hope he becomes a good father to his two children."

Choi Seong-guk's candid and cheerful sharing of every process from marriage to childbirth and parenting is giving an emotional connection beyond entertainment, turning into a true family story.
