Heartwarming Reunion

In a heartwarming episode of the SBS entertainment program 'My Little Old Boy' aired on March 23rd, beloved K-pop star Kim Heechul paid a special visit to his longtime friend, actress and singer Son Dam Bi. The pair, who have shared a close bond for an impressive 23 years, caught up as Son approaches an exciting milestone: motherhood!

Surprise Reaction

Kim Heechul was taken aback upon seeing Son Dam Bi's prominent baby bump, exclaiming, "Are you kidding me? I can't believe it!" The warmth between the two friends was palpable as Son shared, "It's almost time. I'm only a month away from giving birth."

Playful Banter

With his signature humor, Kim asked, "Did you put something in your belly? Honestly, I wish you hadn’t appeared on TV. My mom would be incredibly jealous if she found out that you, the woman she once picked as her daughter-in-law, were pregnant!" This playful banter reflected their deep-rooted friendship and love for one another.

Journey to Motherhood

Son Dam Bi, who married former national speed skating champion Lee Kyuhyuk in 2022, opened up about her journey to motherhood. She shared, "Senior Choi Jiwoo became an icon of late pregnancy by giving birth at 46, and now I’m giving birth at 43. I consider myself lucky; it came to me at this age." Son also revealed that she had undergone in vitro fertilization (IVF) to conceive, disclosing how it typically takes 7 to 8 attempts for many women, but she was fortunate enough to conceive after just two tries. "I failed once, gained weight during the second attempt, and then finally got pregnant after trying again," she explained.

Excitement for the New Arrival

The joyous couple has chosen the nickname "Ddabong" for their baby, with the due date quickly approaching in April. Fans around the world are buzzing with excitement as they await the arrival of Son Dam Bi's little one, bringing a charming end to her remarkable journey through pregnancy.
