She was feeling the changes in her body, making her both worried and excited. She also felt grateful, though she had yet to tell anyone about it at the time as she had to be very careful.
She added that she liked her fans and the people close to her to know the news before it was too late. Just like them, they were all waiting for them to have a baby.
Son Ye Jin then promised they would protect the precious life that had come to them. She ended her post with a wish for everyone to stay healthy and happy and keep the things they held dear in their loves closer to them.
