On December 28, Moon Ga-bi released a detailed statement addressing rumors about her relationship with Jung Woo-sung, the biological father of her son born in March this year.
Moon Ga-bi said: “Both my story and that of the child’s father were completely distorted amidst speculative articles… I remained silent despite the malicious and cruel words, not because I recognized the rumors, but to protect my son and his father.”
Moon Ga-bi clarified that she and Jung Woo-sung met in 2022, maintained a relationship until 2023, and have not met since January 2024. She pointed out: “I never asked for marriage or anything else because of my pregnancy.” Both parents chose to welcome the baby, which she described as a blessing.
Moon Ga-bi also shared, “Both of us, as parents, made the choice to welcome this child, who came into our lives as a blessing from a natural and healthy relationship. I decided to dedicate my life to my son and this decision became the greatest gift I gave to myself.”
He stated firmly, “I believe that being an unprepared or inexperienced mother is a shortcoming, but it is not a mistake or a fault. This child is not a mistake, nor the result of one.”
Last month, reports surfaced that Jung Woo-sung is the father of Moon Ga-bi’s newborn son. Subsequently, Jung Woo-sung’s agency confirmed his paternity, stating that discussions regarding the child’s education are ongoing and affirming his commitment to his responsibilities.
Here is Moon Ga-bi’s full statement:
Last month I made the difficult decision to put the past behind me and find the courage to be a mother of a child again. On the 22nd, my first birthday as a mother, I wanted to share this joyful news with those who supported me and with distant acquaintances who I couldn’t reach.
The main reason was my hope that the newborn would be blessed. One day I wanted to tell my son, “Mommy was so proud of you.”
Since then, numerous articles have been published about me and the child’s father. Many of them contain false information or were written without confirming the facts to the parties involved. In this situation, I feel that the one who suffers the most is my defenseless son. Therefore, for the first time I clarify my position to correct these falsehoods.
I chose the path of silence for the good of all, but I was not protected. Ultimately, to safeguard my son, I decided to share it publicly on my personal social media.
In the midst of articles filled with unfounded speculation written without the slightest consideration for me or my child, stories about me and the child’s father have been completely distorted. Even in a situation where everyone was whispering and pointing fingers at us, with articles full of hurtful and cruel words tainting the first meeting with my son, I remained silent, not because I accepted these speculations but simply to protect my son and person who did it. he is the father of the child.
Speculations piled up in the reported articles, creating rumors that I had only a few encounters with a man I was not in a relationship with, became pregnant, asked for marriage or child support due to the pregnancy, and, after being rejected , I gave birth without agreement. Some even claimed that the posts I shared on my personal social media were intended to damage his reputation or get something out of him.
There are many things I would like to clarify, but I think I need to address the most important questions first.
Since we met at a meeting in 2022, we got to know each other better and developed a meaningful relationship, which continued until the last day of 2023. After a certain day in January 2024, I no longer met the person referred to as the father of the child even once. I never asked for marriage or anything because of my pregnancy.
I did my best to relate to that person and as parents we made the common choice to meet a child who came to us as an extraordinary gift through a natural and healthy relationship. There were moments when I was excited, laughing and feeling happiness for the baby growing in my womb. It is wrong to judge this child as a mistake or to assume that he will grow up unhappy simply because the current relationship between the two parents has taken a different shape.
This baby was born and is growing up surrounded by the blessings and love of me and my family. Now, this baby is bringing even greater love to all of us, filling our lives with nothing but love.
I have decided to dedicate my remaining life to this child. That resolution became the greatest gift I could ever give myself.
As a mother, I may have been clumsy and unprepared, but this is a flaw, not a mistake or fault. This child is not a mistake, nor the result of one.
I seek no praise for doing what is naturally necessary to protect and take responsibility for a precious life. Nor do I wish to be criticized for it.
I just hope the world blesses the birth of this baby. I sincerely wish that no more excessive speculation or false information will be spread about me or my son.
