Last month, I made a difficult decision to gather up the courage to leave the past behind and start anew as a mother to a child. On the 22nd, my first birthday as a mother, I wanted to share the happy news with those who support me and with acquaintances I cannot personally reach.
The main reason behind my announcement was to make sure my child would be welcomed into this world with blessings and I also wanted to be able to tell my child someday, "Mommy was so proud of you."
However, numerous articles about me and the child's father have been circulating since then. Many of these articles contain false information and baseless claims, published without even verifying the facts with the parties involved. In this situation, I realized that my defenseless child was the one being hurt the most. Therefore, I felt the need to clarify my position.
Although I initially chose silence to protect everyone involved, I was left unprotected, eventually, I had to post a public statement on my personal SNS to protect my child.
Amidst articles filled with nothing but speculations, which showed no regard for me or even the newborn child, the story about me and the child's father was completely distorted. Even in a situation where everyone was gossiping and pointing fingers with articles filled with insulting and cruel words that tarnished my first meeting with my child, I maintained silence, not because I admitted to all those speculations, but simply to protect my child and the child's father.
With various speculations added to the reported articles, there were stories saying that 'Moon Gabi had several meetings with a man she had never dated, became pregnant, and after being rejected when she asked for marriage and financial support, she gave birth without his consent.' Worse yet, they said that my SNS posts were meant to damage the child's father's reputation and to get something from him.
There are so many things I want to clarify, but I think I should explain the most important thing first. Since meeting him at a gathering in 2022, we got to know each other more deeply and continued our good relationship until the end of 2023. However, as of January 2024, I have never met the child's father even once. I have never demanded marriage or anything else from him on the grounds of being pregnant.
I did my best in my relationship with him and we both made the choice to welcome our child, a gift that came to us during a natural and healthy relationship. There were definitely moments when we were excited, laughed, and were happy with the baby in my belly. It is not right to simply label this child as a mistake or to assume that his life will be unhappy just because his parents are in a slightly different form of relationship now.
This child was born surrounded by the blessings and love of me and my family. Now, this child is filled with nothing but even greater love towards us. I decided to embrace this child with a willingness to sacrifice the rest of my life, and that decision ended up being the best gift I gave myself. As a mother, I may not have been fully prepared and lacked in a lot of things. However, I believe those were not mistakes or wrongdoings. This child is neither a mistake nor a result of mistake.
I’m not seeking praise for doing something as natural as caring and taking responsibility for a precious life, nor do I want to be pointed at. As a mother, I simply hope the world will bless the birth of my child. I sincerely ask that the unfounded speculation and false information about me and my child come to an end.

-If both of them agreed, then there should be no problem. Just because they have a baby, doesn't mean they have to get married. There may be a lot of people with prejudices, but I believe the child can grow up well with his mother's love. Fighting.
-That's very amazing of her. There are so many awful people out there...
-I don't want to criticize either of them... I'm sure they'll figure things out on their own.
-I'm wishing Moon Gabi and her baby health and happiness.
-Everyone has their own circumstances... Why point fingers?
-I'm rooting for her!! It seems like she doesn't want her child to resent his father later when he grows up. Besides, do we have the rights to judge them?...
-Wait, what? So they were actually dating?
-They haven't seen each other since January 2024?;; Seriously, Jung Woosung... Moon Gabi and her baby, fighting!!!!
-I was so narrow-minded... I apologize for judging with prejudice. I hope you have a happy family. May the baby grow up healthy and happy.
-They haven't seen each other since January?;; Does that mean he hasn't even seen the child at all...?
-It really seems like the baby was truly a gift for her and made her happyㅠ Every sentece in her post is touching. I'm wishing her happiness, and hope the baby grows up healthy and strong!
-She must've gone through a hard time... I'm wishing her and her baby a happy and joyful life❤️
-The world may still be judgmental and harsh on her, but I sincerely hope she'll be happy.
