Actors Lee Si Eon and Seo Ji Seung are expecting their first child, four years after tying the knot. The heartwarming news was officially confirmed on December 26, as Lee Si Eon’s agency, Story J Company, shared an official statement.
The agency said, “Lee Si Eon is expecting his first child four years after his marriage. He is set to become a father next year.” The announcement quickly made headlines, marking a major milestone for the actor, who has often spoken candidly about life, marriage, and personal growth.
Speculation around the pregnancy had already begun a day earlier, on December 25, when Lee Si Eon shared a subtle yet telling post on Instagram. Wishing his followers “Merry Christmas,” the actor posted an image featuring celebratory decorations, including “OH BABY” balloons and a baby boy balloon holding a blue pacifier. While he did not directly address the meaning behind the post at the time, fans were quick to pick up on the symbolic hint.
Further confirmation came through media reports the following day. According to Xports News, reported on December 26, 2025, “actors Seo Ji Seung and Lee Si Eon are pregnant with their first child and is due to give birth next year.”
Lee Si Eon and Seo Ji Seung married in December 2021 after approximately four years of public dating. Known for keeping their relationship relatively low-key, the couple has steadily built a stable and private married life. Now, four years into their marriage, they are preparing to welcome their first child and experience parenthood together in 2026.
Interestingly, Lee Si Eon had previously spoken about his desire to start a family earlier this year. During an episode of the MBC program Born This Way: World Travel 4, which aired in June, the actor opened up about his mindset while preparing for an ascetic pilgrimage. At the time, he shared, “Starting this year, I made up my mind about a new family plan that everyone thinks about. I found myself feeling more earnest, hoping that ‘the wish I desperately want will come true.’”
On the professional front, Lee Si Eon continues to remain active in the entertainment industry. He is scheduled to appear in Netflix’s Bloodhounds 2, which is slated for release next year. Seo Ji Seung, meanwhile, made her acting debut in the popular youth drama Banolim 2 and has steadily built her own career.
