We’re a little confused, but we’re going to give this one a go anyway.
Just yesterday, Koreaboo wrote that Kim Hyun Joong’s ex-girlfriend, publicly known as Ms. Choi, is expected to give birth on 12th September. However, in a conflicting report by soompi, it was revealed that Ms. Choi had already given birth.
According to Ms. Choi’s lawyer on 10th September:
Ms. Choi gave birth last week at a hospital in Seoul. Currently, the baby and the mother are healthy and they are receiving postnatal care.
They also said that a paternity suit is in the works, adding, “For a paternity test to be done, the father’s side must give permission. However, since Kim Hyun Joong is refusing that, we will be filing a paternity suit.”
When asked whether Kim Hyun Joong knows about the birth, they replied, “I don’t believe the two of them have communicated since last May. So I am not sure whether he received news of the birth.”
Meanwhile, a KeyEast representative confirmed during a 10th September phone call:
We heard about the birth through the lawyer. Since Kim Hyun Joong is currently serving in the military, we have no way of knowing whether he is aware of this.
The representative continued, “As it has been established before, after the paternity test is complete, Kim Hyung Joong will take responsibility if the child is his. The stance hasn’t changed. The lawsuit between Ms. Choi and Kim Hyun Joong will continue as planned regardless of the birth.”
Meanwhile, Kim Hyun Joong is currently serving in the military as border patrol in Paju. The third court date of the 1.6 billion won lawsuit will continue on September 23rd.
