According to industry sources, Honey Lee gave birth to a healthy baby girl late at night on August 24, exactly on her due date. Both mother and daughter are reportedly in good health. This marks her second child since marrying a non-celebrity partner in 2021, and welcoming their first daughter in June 2022.

On August 25, her agency Team HOPE confirmed in a phone interview with Dispatch, saying, “Honey Lee gave birth to a daughter on the 24th. Both the mother and baby are healthy.” A representative added, “She is recovering well with her family’s care. We sincerely thank everyone who has shown their support, and we ask for your continued blessings and love.”

What’s particularly inspiring is Lee Honey’s unwavering commitment to her work—even during late pregnancy. On August 18, she appeared visibly pregnant at the press conference for the Netflix original series Aema (애마) held at Hotel Naru MGallery in Seoul. Just days ahead of delivery, she engaged in video interviews with the media to promote the series, showcasing her deep affection and sense of responsibility for the project.

“Lee Honey attended the event with radiant energy and genuine love for her role,” noted one reporter at the scene.

This isn’t the first time Lee has balanced intense physical demands with her pregnancy. During her first pregnancy, she even performed wire-action scenes. Fortunately, this time, her promotional duties and delivery were well-aligned, allowing her to manage both with professionalism and care.

Following the birth, she is expected to focus on postpartum recovery and family time. However, fans won’t have to wait long to see her again. Lee is already lined up for two major upcoming projects: Ha Jung-woo’s film The Invite, officially invited to the 30th Busan International Film Festival in the “Korean Cinema Today – Special Premiere” section, and screenwriter Noh Hee-kyung ’s new Netflix drama, Show Business.

Lee Honey continues to embody the modern working mother—gracefully juggling her roles as actress, mother, and public figure.
