Hi Nancyzak, my dear......................long time no chat. I miss you! I missed it! I guess they also chose the place because in California there's no snow & not very cold. Non-stop flight time from LA to Seoul is around 13 hours more or less. Fastest one-stop flight takes close to 15 hours. It's good that they're in a good location, where as you said many K-celebs have their homes, too. I think so, too - she really has to relish as early as now with her family.

 

 

I missed chatting with you too, my dear @willenette! My busyness with work, both in office and at home just get in the way, for months now. At times, I do not even have the time to visit this thread, but I’ll try my level best to drop by and chat, fingers crossed! 

 

Rain is busy with the filming of his K-drama. KTH will remain below radar during her pregnancy. I wonder whether the couple will find time for their second baby moon. Or Korean couples only do their first baby moon, since it’s the first pregnancy and everything being the first is special?

[OSEN = Hajime] Why do stars make their home in the US? I know that there are reasons for children's education, marriage with loved ones, free life, etc. Recently, I was wondering about Kim Tae-hee, who lives in LA, "Is this a process for Hollywood advancement?" I have put together the stars that made nesting in the US by type.

Sohn Ji-chang and Oh Yeon-soo decided to go to America to support their children's stable studying abroad, and Ohn Yeon-soo said, "I think children's memories are more important than money." Both husband and I grew up in defective families and family and children are important. "He said.

Since then, she has been married to the United States of America. She returned to Korea on the 10th anniversary of the "High Kick" broadcast in 2017 and resumed broadcasting.

In February, Kim Min and Lee Ji-ho's real LA Beverly Hills Life were unveiled at the TV drama 'My wife's taste'. Kim Min was attracted the attention of Lee Ji-ho, a movie director, who was called "computer beauty" at the time of his 90's activities, and the sophisticated LA Beverly Hills Mansion, which would appear in movies.

 

Group Cool's glass married a 6-year-old businessman in 2014 who is a golf player and golf-related business in the United States. Currently living in the US with three children.

# Hollywood advancement, husband's outfit?

Top star Kim Tae - hee recently visited LA in the United States with her husband Rain, and bought luxury homes worth 2.3 billion won in neighboring city of Irvine. The reason for purchasing a house in Los Angeles is a process to advance to Hollywood, and speculation is that it is intended to support the husband's US activities.

However, Kim Tae-hee's agency said, "It is true that I bought a house, but I did not buy it for activities or Hollywood advancement.

Kim Tae - hee has simply raised the question of "privacy, no confirmation" and raised his curiosity.

Hi Nancyzak, IDK if Korean couples traditionally having baby moon. I don't have any idea unlike other countries that most couples are usually doing..... Although, we know that Korean culture is very unique and full of interesting traditions. Like  in western countries most parents do not want to cling to their children. Most Koreans find this inhuman. Most would not agree that they, as individuals, should think of themselves as separate from their parents and families. The close family ties and dependencies are valued so highly in Korea.

[willenette]

*** Well, I'm curious & excited of what the gender will be of their 2nd child soon. I hope it's a baby boy this time. Traditionally, Korea has been a Confucian society, which meant that sons inherited most of the property and carried on the family name. Now, laws have changed allowing sons and daughters to inherit equally from their parents. Many young Korean couples would prefer daughters, though. There’s a Korean saying - : “There’s really no use in having a son, because they just grow up to leave you, to take care of their wives.”  In the past, your oldest son and his wife would live with you until the end of life, but that’s no longer the case. Sons are moving out when they get married, and parents are burdened with buying them new homes. This, while more elderly are living alone.

[HanCinema's News] First Lee Byung-hun and Kim Tae-hee Have Bought Houses in the United States

 

 

First Lee Byung-hun bought a two million dollar house in Los Angeles. Now, Kim Tae-hee has also bought a two million dollar house in Irvine. Speculation has been mounting as to why, or whether these two high profile real estate transactions are mere coincidence.

 

That two major South Korean entertainment stars bought the houses in the same area at the same time was probably a coincidence.

 

However, wealthy Asians have long bought houses in this area for a variety of reasons.

 

Practically speaking, it is convenient to have a permanent residence near Los Angeles for people who frequently take trips there. This was the official explanation for Lee Byung-hun's investment. Kim Tae-hee's agency has claimed that she is not currently looking into expanding her career into Hollywood as Lee Byung-hun has.

 

Financial motives are another likely factor. American houses are seen as offering a strong return by foreign investors. This practice has made much of the American housing market unaffordable for normal Americans, creating spikes in homeless populations.

 

Taking advantage of American birthright citizenship is another reason for wealthy foreigners to maintain official residences in the United States. Such an advantage is of particular value to South Korean families trying to spare their sons the trauma of mandatory military service. Kim Tae-hee's second child is due in September. Its gender has not yet been revealed.

Hi @willenette dear

 

Thank you for sharing the article. I was having so much trouble in logging in for the past few days! I had the same problem not too long ago and resorted to creating a second account but luckily I managed to log in. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that I could use this original account without having to use my second account! 

 

About the second baby. I’m having the same hope as you do, i.e. it’s a boy this time round, making it a pair of girl and boy for KTH and Rain. Sorry to brag, but having a pair of girl and boy would be an achievement that one could be very proud of, i.e. of KTH and Rain. As we all know, the birth rate is so low in SK now and not every couple is lucky to be blessed with a pair of girl and boy if they plan having more than one child.  Oh, there are other people who quietly speculated about a boy too, not just you and me dear, and they think Rain has.been hinting about it. What do you think? Speculation is rife in fandom, more so when news is scarce and we know something is clearly brewing! We shall see, right?! Another 3 months to go!

Bi Rain, "My wife Kim Tae Hee is super supporting"

 

Actor Jung Ji Hoon (stage name Bi Rain) plays lead role in new Mon-Tue drama "Welcome 2 Life" (MBC).

 

The launch press conference for the Mon-Tue drama "Welcome 2 Life" (MBC) has taken place at MBC Golden Mouse Hall, Sangam, Mapo District, Seoul on the afternoon of August 5.

 

 

During the launch press conference that day, in response to the question that if his wife (actress Kim Tae Hee) encouraged him, actor Jung Ji Hoon (stage name Bi Rain) shared, "I already knew that this matter will become a hot topic on the press instead of the drama promotion. Yes, she is super supporting regarding me acting. I hope everyone would also support me as well."

 

 

On the other hand, "Welcome 2 Life" is a rom-com drama with investigative elements, revolving around the evil lawyer who only follows his own benefits. Because of the accident, he fell into a parallel world, thus completely removing the past to become a righteous prosecutor.
