Actor Hyunbin and Son Ye-jin's family trip to the United States is heating up online with eyewitness accounts. But there are growing concerns as photos and videos of the family on vacation are being spread indiscriminately, and even their young son's appearance is being publicly evaluated.
On the 8th, photos and videos showing Hyunbin and Son Ye-jin visiting a museum in the United States with their child rapidly circulated on China's social network Weibo and various online communities.
In the released photos, Hyunbin was dressed comfortably in a white tank top, shorts and a hat, and Son Ye-jin was also wearing sunglasses and casual clothes as she toured the exhibits and enjoyed a leisurely time with her family. The filming location is presumed to be the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, but the exact location has not been confirmed.
Earlier last month, eyewitness accounts of the two people vacationing in Okinawa, Japan, also spread online. At that time, a video showing the family trip was released, and some eyewitness accounts sparked major attention with remarks such as "so pretty like AI" regarding the young son's appearance.
The situation was similar on this U.S. trip. Vacation photos and videos with the family were shared in real time, and online responses have continued that evaluate or focus attention on the appearance of their still young child.
As Hyunbin and Son Ye-jin are a top star couple representing Korea, it is natural that they receive public attention. But since these photos were taken during a private vacation rather than an official schedule, many argue that the family's privacy should be respected.
In particular, because the child did not choose public exposure as a public figure, voices are saying it is necessary to once again reflect on the culture of evaluating appearance or excessively consuming personal information.
Meanwhile, Hyunbin and Son Ye-jin married in 2022 and welcomed a son that same year, and they continue to balance acting work with childrearing.
