Actress Lee Si-young Welcomes Second Child After Divorce, Draws Attention for Luxury Postpartum Care

Actress Lee Si-young is once again at the center of attention following the birth of her second child.

Her journey, marked by divorce after eight years of marriage and subsequent pregnancy and childbirth, has captured public interest.

Lee Si-young personally announced the birth of her second daughter via her personal social media on the evening of the 5th. She shared, 'I consider her a gift from God to her mother, and I will ensure Jung-yoon and my little one live happily forever,' expressing gratitude to the medical staff.

Photos accompanying the announcement showed Lee Si-young holding her newborn baby in the hospital, alongside her first son, Jung-yoon, who appeared noticeably mature, touching the hearts of viewers.

Her agency, Ace Factory, also released an official statement: 'Actress Lee Si-young recently gave birth to a daughter. Both mother and child are healthy. She plans to resume activities after sufficient recovery.'

This childbirth was particularly special. Lee Si-young finalized her divorce from her husband, a restaurant entrepreneur nine years her senior, in March. However, as the expiration date for embryos cryopreserved during their marriage approached, she decided to proceed with implantation without her ex-husband's consent, leading to her second pregnancy. Although some controversy arose, her agency clarified that there were 'absolutely no legal procedural violations.' Her ex-husband also stated, 'As the biological father, I will fulfill my responsibilities,' bringing the conflict to a close.

Amidst this, Lee Si-young garnered further attention for recovering at a top-tier postpartum care center, reportedly costing up to 50 million KRW. The private facility in Seoul's Gangnam district, known for being used by celebrity couples like Hyun Bin-Son Ye-jin and Lee Byung-hun-Lee Min-jung, was described as a 'dignified recovery space befitting her,' with its gallery-like interior and private garden.

Previously, Lee Si-young also made headlines for her charitable endeavors, donating 100 million KRW to the Korea Single Parents Association. She stated, 'I have been supporting single-parent families for several years,' and 'I prepared this since early this year to offer even warmer support,' even requesting cooperation from the interior design and furniture industries to create 'beautiful homes' for them.

Thus, Lee Si-young has unintentionally remained a constant topic of conversation, from her post-divorce pregnancy to her ultra-luxurious postpartum care. However, many netizens are sending messages of support, commenting, 'She's a strong mom, no matter what,' 'It's admirable how she chooses her own path and takes responsibility,' and 'I hope she stays strong and finds happiness.'

Netizens are praising Lee Si-young as a 'strong mom' and commending her 'brave choices' following her second child's birth. Many are sending supportive messages, hoping for her and her children's happiness.
