South Korean actress Kim Min-hee, 43, and film director Hong Sang-soo, 65, recently became parents to a baby boy.

According to sources on April 8, Kim gave birth at a hospital and later stayed at a postnatal care centre in Hanam, Gyeonggi province, South Korea.

Speculation about her pregnancy had circulated in January, when reports emerged that Kim was expecting a child with Hong and was due to give birth this spring.

Witnesses also claimed to have seen the couple visiting an obstetrics clinic in Hanam for regular check-ups.
