South Korean actor Song Joong Ki opened up about his children for the first time. The actor, who is married to Katy Louise Saunders, welcomed a son in June 2023 and had a daughter last month. In a new interview, Song Joong Ki not only showed a picture of his kids with the interviewer but also spoke fondly about them. The Vincenzo star also spoke about his wife.
“I’ve become a doting father of a daughter. There are people who are raising babies, but this is how it is. Is it wrong? (To be doting?) I’m sorry. When my daughter was born, I held her and she was so different from my boy when held him. I can’t forget that feeling. She’s growing up healthy. My wife is also recovering well,” Song Joong Ki told the South Korean news outlet, Hankyung.
“My wife hasn’t seen ‘Bogota’ yet, so she’ll watch it later. I’m doing a drama called ‘My Youth.’ My wife supports me a lot because she knows my schedule. My sense of responsibility has grown even more now that my babies are born,” he added.
Song Joong Ki also revealed he is learning Spanish and tries to talk to his wife in the language as well. “In my daily life, like those who are raising children, there will be times when the baby will grow up to be good in speaking Spanish, so whether my babies speak English or Spanish, if I fall behind, I won’t be able to communicate, so I’m studying for that reason,” he said.
Song Joong Ki secretly married Katy. In January 2023, through his fancafe, he revealed he got married and was already expecting his first baby with her. The couple welcomed their son on June 14, 2023. On November 20, 2024, Song announced the birth of their second child, a daughter.
On the work front, Song Joong Ki will be seen in Bogota: City of the Lost. He has also signed the new series, The Youth.
