Recently, the news that actor Jung Woo Sung (51 years old) admitted to having a child with model Moon Gabi (35 years old) shocked the Korean entertainment industry.
Moon Gabi and Jung Woo Sung first met in 2022 at a social gathering. They kept in touch and became close. In June 2023, Moon Gabi announced to Jung Woo Sung that she was pregnant with their child, and the child was born in March of this year.
The actor and his representative quickly confirmed the news with a brief statement: "I am currently considering the best way to raise the child, and as a father, I will do my best for the child."
But on the afternoon of November 25, a source from Ten Asia said that Jung Woo Sung is currently dating a non-celebrity woman. They are said to have been dating for a long time and are serious about this relationship.
According to Ten Asia, Jung Woo Sung and his girlfriend went on double dates with Lee Jung Jae and Im Se Ryung. Jung Woo Sung and Lee Jung Jae are close friends, often appearing in movies and commercials together.
Ten Asia cannot confirm exactly how long Jung Woo Sung and his current girlfriend have been dating, only that it has been over a year.
Moon Gabi informed Jung Woo Sung that she was pregnant in June 2023, which raises questions about whether Jung Woo Sung was in a relationship with Moon Gabi at the time he was dating his non-celebrity girlfriend?
In addition, Ten Asia also noted that Jung Woo Sung's current girlfriend does not know about Moon Gabi and that he has a child with this model. She is currently in shock.
A representative from Jung Woo Sung's management company told StarNews that they cannot comment on Ten Asia's report as it is part of the actor's private life.
Previously, according to Ten Asia, Jung Woo Sung and Moon Gabi met and talked about parenting issues as well as marriage issues, but there were clear differences in views.
Moon Gabi wanted to get married and raise a child; Jung Woo Sung was adamant, saying that marriage was out of the question. According to a close associate, Moon Gabi's sudden announcement on social media that she had given birth also stemmed from this conflict.
Jung Woo Sung and Moon Gabi have met many times in the past, but they are not dating.
The newspaper added that after completing the paternity test, Jung Woo Sung only admitted to being the child's biological father, and did not want to become "Moon Gabi's husband and the child's father."
Jung Woo Sung's stance is that he will not get married, even though he has paid child support and expenses related to childbirth.
