SEOUL, January 17 (AJP) - Actress Kim Min-hee is pregnant and expected to give birth this spring, multiple online entertainment outlets reported on Friday.

The actress, in her early 40s, was caught by paparazzi cameras earlier this week on her way to an ob-gyn clinic with her lover and filmmaker Hong Sang-soo.

Kim has been involved in a May-to-September romance with Hong who is in his mid-60s, since 2016. The couple went public with their romance the following year and have been living together since.

Hong lost a divorce suit in 2019 after a lengthy legal battle with his estranged wife as he deserted her and his daughter to shack up with a much younger actress. But Hong, who opted not to appeal the ruling, still remains married to his wife.

Kim, as his regular muse, has only appeared in Hong's micro-budget films.
