Moon Ga-bi Shuts Down SNS Comments After Revealing Son with Jung Woo-sung
Model and entertainer Moon Ga-bi has closed off comments on her social media just a day after sharing photos of her son, fathered by top actor Jung Woo-sung.
On July 30th, Moon Ga-bi posted several photos on her personal Instagram, marking her first update in about 11 months. The photos showed Moon Ga-bi and her young son enjoying everyday life together. The mother and son were seen in matching outfits, spending leisure time in a green field, and holding hands while walking on a beach, showcasing a happy family moment.
Notably, her son appeared to have grown significantly, drawing attention as the images were shared without any mosaic or blur effects. Moon Ga-bi opted to partially cover her son's face or focus on their backs in the photos with him.
The sudden appearance of her son's photos instantly became a huge topic online, primarily because the child's biological father is none other than the renowned actor Jung Woo-sung. Moon Ga-bi had announced her childbirth in November of last year, and shortly after, the revelation of Jung Woo-sung as the father sent shockwaves through society.
At the time, Jung Woo-sung's agency, Artist Company, released an official statement confirming, "The child Moon Ga-bi posted on her social media is indeed Actor Jung Woo-sung's biological son." They added, "We are discussing the best approach for the child's upbringing and will fulfill our responsibilities to the end."
Following the child's reveal, Moon Ga-bi appealed for restraint from speculation and criticism, stating, "The child, conceived through a natural and healthy relationship, was a choice made by both parents." She emphasized, "This child is not a mistake, nor the result of a mistake. Protecting and taking responsibility for a precious life is a natural duty."
Jung Woo-sung also addressed the matter publicly during the Blue Dragon Film Awards that year, saying, "I sincerely apologize to everyone who sent love and support for causing concern and disappointment. I will take all criticism upon myself. As a father, I will fulfill my responsibilities to my son until the end."
However, the situation did not involve the two marrying and forming a traditional family unit to raise their child. Jung Woo-sung reportedly had a long-term girlfriend besides Moon Ga-bi. It was revealed that he recently completed a marriage registration with his girlfriend after the birth of his son, legally becoming husband and wife.
Given the complex family circumstances surrounding the birth of Jung Woo-sung's only biological child, Moon Ga-bi's flood of son's photos prompted a wide range of reactions, from congratulations and support to expressions of concern.
Comments included observations like, "He's grown so much. He can already walk," and "He already looks like Jung Woo-sung." However, concerns were also voiced, such as, "His face is becoming visible; is it okay to reveal him like this?"
Ultimately, Moon Ga-bi abruptly shut down her SNS comment section, leaving only the mother-and-son photos currently visible on her profile.
Netizens reacted with comments like, "He's grown up so much. He already looks like his dad!" and "He's already showing off his good looks, maybe taking after his mom." Some also added, "She probably closed the comments for the child's privacy; I understand."
