She shared photos taken at a pension in Sejong City, saying, “It’s so beautiful I couldn’t not share it,” and adding that the scenery left her feeling refreshed and uplifted.

Earlier reports noted that, at 47, Han will become one of the oldest mothers in the entertainment industry, a detail that drew widespread attention. “Since my debut, I’ve never received this many congratulatory calls,” she said. “I was so surprised and moved that more people than I expected are taking an interest in and supporting me as I carry new life.”

She added that she plans to share small tips she’s learned as an older expectant mother and encouraged others facing similar struggles: “Don’t give up. Keep hope.”

Han is currently staying at Boseomga in Sejong with her parents, focusing on rest and prenatal care. Fans have flooded her with congratulations as she celebrates both a legal name change and her pregnancy.
