The couple’s pregnancy announcement has attracted attention across South Korea’s entertainment and sporting communities, with many congratulating them as they prepare for a new chapter in their lives.
On October 28, 2026, Lee Wan’s agency, Story J Company, confirmed that Lee Bo Mi is pregnant and expected to give birth in February 2027.
The agency also revealed that the couple are expecting a baby girl.
The news initially emerged through Japanese media reports following Lee Bo Mi’s appearance at a golf event in Japan.

The announcement is particularly meaningful for the couple, who married in December 2019 and have continued pursuing their respective careers in entertainment and professional golf.
Lee Bo Mi Shares Her Happiness as the Couple Prepare for Parenthood
Before the official confirmation from Lee Wan’s agency, Japanese media outlet Sports Hochi reported on Lee Bo Mi’s pregnancy on October 24.
The professional golfer reportedly shared the news while attending the Nobuta Group Masters GC Ladies event in Miki, Hyogo Prefecture, Japan.
Speaking about the upcoming arrival, Lee Bo Mi expressed her happiness, saying,
“We have a new family member on the way, and I feel grateful. My husband is also very happy.”
She also revealed that the baby’s prenatal nickname is “Lucky,” a name that reflects the excitement surrounding the family’s new beginning.
Lee Bo Mi spoke warmly about the possibility of her daughter developing an interest in golf in the future.
“I imagine the child becoming a golfer and me cheering her on,” she said, sharing a glimpse of her hopes for the baby.
Following the initial report, Story J Company confirmed the pregnancy and the expected February 2027 delivery.
The agency’s announcement also revealed that the couple are expecting a girl, prompting further congratulatory messages from fans.
The news has drawn particular interest because Lee Bo Mi has established herself as a respected professional golfer, with a successful career in both South Korea and Japan.
Her comments about potentially supporting a daughter who follows the same sport have therefore struck a personal note with those familiar with her achievements.
While the couple have largely maintained their own professional paths, the pregnancy announcement has offered fans a glimpse into their excitement about becoming parents.
