HAN GA IN OPENS UP ABOUT THE STRESSES OF INFERTILITY

Beautiful as ever.

Lee Seung Gi, Han Ga In and Noh Hong Chul debuted as the MCs of SBS's new talk/variety show 'Circle House' that premiered on February 24.


"Circle House" will cover a different aspect of dating and relationships in today's society every week. One guest on this week's show expressed her aversion to dating and romantic relationships.


Han Ga In was asked how she would feel if her daughter grew up and decided she didn't want to date when the segment aired about her feelings on the subject. Responding to Han Ga In, "I'm all for anti-dating and anti-marriage campaigns. It's all her decision."

After getting married at the age of 24, she opened up about the "infertility" rumors that plagued her newlywed life as well. She stated, "My husband and I got married when I was 24 years old. I didn't have the self-assurance or desire to have a child and raise him/her because I thought I was too young and hadn't even finished growing up. As a result, my husband and I decided to put off starting a family for 11 years."

Her former co-star Yeon Jung Hoon, whom she married in 2005, has revealed, "As soon as I got married, people would always ask me, "When are you going to have children?" Many people assumed our marriage was in trouble or that I was 'infertile' when we didn't have children. I had no intention of starting a family, but all of a sudden, 'infertile' was the key search term next to my name. No, becoming a mother is not my next step in life because I married my best friend. All of that anxiety was caused by those rumors."


At the age of 35, Han Ga In gave birth to her first child, a daughter named Han Ga In, and then gave birth to a second child, a son, in 2019.
