Eric, a member of Shinhwa and also active as an actor, shared surprising news that he has become a father of multiple children.

Eric and Na Hye-mi held their wedding in 2017 after five years of dating. The 12-year age difference between Eric and Na Hye-mi drew attention when their dating rumors surfaced.

Later, on March 1, 2023, they became parents for the first time with the birth of a healthy son. The two are now focusing on parenting and taking a break from their activities. They shared updates on their parenting life on social media, garnering interest, and Eric showed a side of himself as a "baby fool" father.

Meanwhile, Eric found himself wrapped in speculation about his health after a photo with a fan drew attention due to his noticeably changed physique. As controversy continued, Eric directly said, "The photo looks like it was taken during the early stages of parenting, when I wasn't sleeping. I was kind of embarrassed to refuse when asked to take a picture at a drinking session, so I just took it, but is it really that strange? That's actually pretty good for me," and added, "I weighed 98 kg at one point. The three of us are getting along well and enjoying each other’s company."

Today, on the 20th, they are receiving many congratulations as they are set to welcome their second child after eight years of marriage. Eric's agency, T.O.P Media, stated to OSEN on the 6th, "It is true that Eric and Na Hye-mi are expecting their second child. The baby is due this spring."

Thus, after eight years of marriage, Na Hye-mi and Eric have become parents of two children. Internet users are sending blessings, saying, "I can't believe Eric is a father of two kids," "The kids will be so cute since they look like the two of them," and "The family looks warm and harmonious."

Meanwhile, even after getting married, Eric has been actively participating in various entertainment shows such as "Three Meals a Day," "Law of the Jungle," "Will It Game?" and "Cecilia's Barber," as well as dramas like "Extraordinary! Moon Chef" and "The Spy Who Loved Me." Na Hye-mi has also solidified her acting career by participating in productions such as "The One and Only" and "Please, Summer" as well as "No Matter What Anyone Says."
