Song Joong-ki is a fond Appa!
South Korean actor Song Joong-ki and British star Katy Louise Saunders have entered the monumental part of parenthood as they welcomed their first-born.
High Zium Studio, the actor’s agency, was first to release the image—a black-and-white snapshot of the baby’s hand curled around a finger.
Song Joong-ki has also uploaded the photograph with a note that reads, “Today, I came here to greet you because I have one more piece of news that feels like a dream, and I wanted to be the first to tell you. Right now, I’m in Italy. Here, in my wife’s hometown of Rome, we happened to welcome our baby.”
“It’s a healthy son… and both the baby and his mother are in very good health. As we welcomed our child in good health and joy, I am taking care of my family very happily, with a grateful heart,” he adds.
Song Joong-ki has also expressed how fond of a father he is by referring to their son as “the most precious gift to have found its way to us.” As for him, their shared dream of building a “happy family” is already upon them, “thanks to the support from many people.”
With a heartfelt gratitude extended to Ki Aile, his fanbase, he left a promise of returning “to greet you with a cool project.”
In January 2023, the 37-year-old actor announced that he and his wife are expecting a child. At the same time, he publicized his wedding registration with the 38-year-old British babe.
Song Joong-ki initially married award-winning actress Song Hye-kyo in 2017. Two years later, they decided to terminate their wedding through divorce—a case finalized in 2019.
He is popularly known for his important portrayals in various Korean dramas, such as “Descendants of the Sun” and “Vincenzo.”
