Eight years ago, when I had my first child, now the most precious person in my life, I was not married and was filming a drama. Back then, I was younger and had many shortcomings. Every time I saw Jung Yoon in my arms, I regretted and blamed myself for the time I spent with anxiety and negatively.
That’s why I promised myself that if I ever got another chance, I would never regret it again. I prepared for my second child through IVF during my marriage. However, a long time passed without receiving the fertilized embryos, and the topic of divorce naturally came up.

After all the legal process was sorted out, the five-year frozen embryo storage period was ending, and I had to make a choice. Before the disposal date, I decided to have the transplant myself.

Although I didn’t ask for consent from the other person, I will bear the full weight of my decision. I have always wanted a child, and I did not want to repeat the regret I felt with my first child, so I could not discard the embryo.

The only reason I was able to endure my troubled married life was because I had my child, who was an angel who gave me full happiness, hope, and inspiration. It was because I had a miraculous child who made me feel like my reason for existence was to be his mother.

There may be many difficult times ahead, and I have had concerns about various scenarios, but despite all that, I believe that my choice is more valuable. This choice was a meaningful decision in my life. Looking back, the most precious thing in my life has always been my child.
It is through these miraculous times that I fill my imperfect life and give myself strength, and I feel like my life is finally being filled. Right now, I am only grateful for the new life that came to me, and I am spending a more peaceful and happy time.
I will humbly accept any criticism or advice you give me in the future. I will live faithfully with a deep sense of responsibility and do what I can for my child. Thank you for reading this long message.”
In response to the whole message, Si-Young’s ex-husband also confirmed the news by stating that even though he did not give his consent to have this baby, he will still fulfill his responsibilities as a father. As per his statement, he wrote via Koreaboo, “Even after breaking up with her, we have communicated about raising our first child. The same goes for our second child. As a mother and father, we will both do our best.”
Lee Si-Young can currently be seen in the K-drama Salon De Holmes.
