Ayane, the wife of actor Lee Ji-hoon, cautiously expressed her position regarding the concerns raised by some internet users about her daughter's first birthday party attire. She conveyed her honest feelings, saying, "Since mom has worked hard, I want to dress up nicely and welcome the guests."
On the 23rd, Ayane shared a video wearing several dresses through her personal channel, asking fans for their opinions on what to wear to the first birthday party, saying, "Please help me choose what to wear for the birthday party." In response, comments like "everything looks good," and "it's pretty" followed, but some internet users pointed out that it was "too flashy."
Some comments expressed realistic concerns and criticisms, stating, "It's not a wedding, so it stands out too much," "It might be better to wear a hanbok," "The dress is too extravagant for the baby, who is the main character," and "It looks uncomfortable for holding the baby."
As the video sparked controversy online and was covered in articles, Ayane expressed her thoughts again on the 24th through her personal channel. She revealed her true feelings, saying, "I didn't have the desire to be the main character. But since mom has worked hard, I want to dress up nicely and welcome the guests, no matter what anyone says."
She added, "Isn't it outdated to think that moms should only dress modestly?" and said, "I am preparing more for a birthday party rather than just a first birthday celebration. Family and my husband will help with taking care of the child, so I'm not too worried." She also expressed her gratitude to everyone who left comments saying, "Thank you for your concerns. I am reading each one of them," maintaining a polite attitude.
Meanwhile, Ayane married Lee Ji-hoon in 2021, overcoming a 14-year age gap. The couple welcomed their daughter through in vitro fertilization and has been sharing warm family stories while receiving much support from many people.
Despite the controversy, supportive comments are pouring in regarding Ayane's attitude of confidently voicing her opinion, with remarks like "honest and wonderful" and "it's nice to see her preparing in her own way."
