The Lee Dong-jin·Kim Ji-yeon couple said, "From pregnancy through childbirth there were many unexpected big and small things. So we are announcing the happy news a little late. Fortunately, Lucky and Vicky and both of us are each overcoming things well and recovering," they said.
They added, "There is still some time left to take care of them, but we are simply grateful and thankful that the children are growing healthy day by day. We thank everyone who worried and cheered for us with wlstlas. Our whole family will greet you again in good health and brightness. Please continue to watch over us with warm hearts."
