Regarding former Vice Minister of Gender Equality and Family Kim Hee-kyung calling Jung Woo-sung's son an "out-of-wedlock," he said, "It's so annoying to keep calling him an "out-of-wedlock," adding, "Let's not do that."

Former Vice Minister Kim pointed out on Facebook on the 1st, "Calling children out of wedlock and married people depending on whether their parents are married is a terrible emphasis on normality and an act that promotes prejudice."

He then criticized, "It is a view with parents at the center, and it is a term that negatively stigmatizes a child who has no responsibility."

"I researched and announced the perception of family diversity, and 76% of the people agreed that the distinction between extramarital and premarital people should be eliminated because it is a discriminatory term," he said. "I hope you don't call your child 'out-of-wedlock', a discriminatory term that many feel is already old." Let's put the child at the center. I'm not an extramarital person, I'm just a son," he stressed.

Earlier on the 24th of last month, Jung Woo-sung's agency, the artist company, officially confirmed that the child, which Mun Ga-bi revealed on social media, was Jung Woo-sung's biological child, and said, "We are discussing the best way to raise the child and will do our best for the child as a father."
