South Korean actor Lee Byung-hun and his wife, actress Lee Min-jung, have welcomed their second child – a daughter – on Dec 21 as they celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary in 2023.
Lee Byung-hun’s agency BH Entertainment told the media that both mother and child are well.
Lee Byung-hun, 53, is filming the second season of Netflix series Squid Game (2021 to present), in which he is reprising the role of the mysterious Front Man.
However, his agency said he was able to take some time off to accompany his wife during the delivery.
The couple, who tied the knot in 2013, have an eight-year-old son named Joon-hoo.
Lee Byung-hun won Best Leading Actor for the disaster film Concrete Utopia (2023) at the Blue Dragon Film Awards in November.
His role as the interim resident representative of an apartment building, which survived a major earthquake, also earned him the Best Actor accolade at the Grand Bell Awards.
Meanwhile, Lee Min-jung, 41, returned to the big screen after 11 years with the comedy drama Switch in January. – The Straits Times/Asia News Network
