Actor Kang Eun-bi miscarried at 21 weeks of pregnancy.
On the 15th, Kang Eun-bi announced the miscarriage in a video titled "Five months that were short and long, 21 weeks, farewell to Sansam. I love you, baby" on her YouTube channel 'Byeonbi Couple.'
Kang Eun-bi said, "At 21 weeks, Samsam became a little star and left," and "On Jan. 3 I parted with Sansam. On Dec. 29, 2025, at 20 weeks and 2 days I had a detailed ultrasound. While being told that everything was normal, I was told that the amniotic fluid had decreased, and during the examination it was judged that the fluid seemed to be leaking, so I was transferred to a higher-level hospital," she said, adding, "Until then all tests were normal, I felt fetal movement well, and I had no fever or pain, so I simply thought it was a problem caused by overwork from working too hard."
She continued, "Two days after being hospitalized I was told that the amniotic fluid measurement was zero, and with a diagnosis suspecting preterm rupture of membranes I endured another two days in absolute bed rest with a urinary catheter. I prayed and waited for the amniotic fluid to return, but Sansam's position was unstable and the fluid never reappeared. When I was told we had to consider terminating the pregnancy, I was transferred to a larger tertiary hospital."
Kang Eun-bi said, "The baby was lying sideways, tightly adhered to the placenta, and I was told the lungs could no longer develop and the baby was barely holding on in a narrow space. At that moment everything fell apart. I was so ignorant that faced with the statement that my fault had caused the baby to endure in pain, I had to make a decision. On the day I reached 21 weeks, I accepted that I had to let Sansam go," she announced the miscarriage.
Kang Eun-bi and Byun Jun-pil held their wedding last April after 17 years of dating. In September of that year, she announced she had conceived naturally at age 40, receiving many congratulations.
Below is Kang Eun-bi's full statement
On Jan. 3, 2024, I parted with Sansam.
On Dec. 29, at 20 weeks and 2 days, I had a detailed ultrasound. While being told that everything was normal, I was told the amniotic fluid had decreased, and during the examination it was judged that the fluid seemed to be leaking, so I was urgently transferred to a higher-level hospital.
Until then all tests were normal, I felt fetal movement well, and I had no fever or pain, so I simply thought it was a problem caused by overworking myself.
However, two days after being hospitalized I was told the amniotic fluid measurement was zero, and with a diagnosis suspecting preterm rupture of membranes I endured another two days in absolute bed rest with a urinary catheter.
I prayed and waited for the amniotic fluid to return. But Sansam's position was unstable and the fluid never reappeared. When I was told we had to consider terminating the pregnancy, I was transferred to a larger tertiary hospital.
There, the consultation with the professor was the hardest time of my life. I was told the baby was lying sideways, tightly adhered to the placenta, and the lungs could no longer develop and the baby was barely holding on in a narrow space. At that moment everything collapsed.
I was so ignorant that faced with the statement that my fault had caused the baby to endure in pain, I had to make a decision. On the day I reached 21 weeks, I accepted that I had to let Sansam go
And with induced labor the baby left immediately after birth. There was nothing I could do, and all I could do was cry out loud. So on Jan. 3 my first baby, my first son, left.
On Jan. 4, determined to handle the funeral procedures myself, I went to the crematorium after being discharged. It was such a cold day that I felt sorry to send him alone, so I stood there stunned and could only cry.
I send Sansam off like that and leave this video as the last memory. Five months that were short and long, thank you for being with me, mom. Because of you I became a mother for a while, and I was filled with days of laughter and happiness. If you come back to me as my son again, mom will surely remember you, will not forget you, and will be preparing to meet you healthier. I love you, my baby.<
