Singer Kim Jung-min Laments Lack of 'Opportunity' for Fourth Child with Wife Rumiko

Singer Kim Jung-min, known as the 'each-house couple' and a father of many children, has opened up about his candid struggles regarding his wife Rumiko's plans for a fourth child.

On the afternoon of the 30th, the daily life of Kim Jung-min and his Japanese wife Rumiko was revealed on tvN STORY's 'Each House Couple'.

Kim Jung-min confessed that he recently visited a hospital for a hormone test, citing increased tearfulness as a symptom. He recalled that a hormone test before his marriage assured him, stating, 'Don't worry.' However, his wife Rumiko, watching from the studio, exclaimed, 'That was 21 years ago!', causing the set to erupt in laughter.

As discussions about male health continued, with a urologist explaining that the two most important symptoms of male menopause are decreased libido and erectile dysfunction, Kim Jung-min mentioned that his wife Rumiko frequently brings up the topic of a fourth child, wearing a somewhat bitter expression. When asked about the plans for a fourth child, he humorously replied, 'There's no opportunity,' eliciting laughter.

Kim Jung-min candidly shared, 'The kids don't give their dad and mom any openings. The timing is never right.' His heartfelt confession about the 'bittersweet' reality of being unable to find couple time due to his children entering adolescence resonated deeply with many parents of multiple children.

Korean netizens reacted with empathy and support, commenting things like, 'Ah, the reality of a father with many kids,' 'Even though it's tough, the happiness the children bring is greater!', and 'Maybe try for a fourth child when things are more relaxed.'
