The accompanying photo shows Gary holding baby Haoh tenderly in his arms, believed to have been taken shortly after his birth. The image quickly warmed fans’ hearts, with many commenting on the rapper’s deep affection and transformation as a devoted father.

Gary shocked fans in 2017 when he suddenly announced his marriage to a woman 10 years younger than him. Around the same time, he withdrew from all broadcast activities, including his regular appearance on SBS’s hit variety show Running Man, citing a desire to focus on his music.

The announcement came as a surprise to both the public and his former colleagues. Running Man cast members later revealed on-air that they had lost contact with Gary after his departure, saying he had changed his phone number without notice.

Shortly afterward, he and his wife welcomed their son Haoh, news that Gary personally revealed to fans, once again taking the internet by surprise.

In 2020, Gary made a quiet yet heartwarming return to television by joining KBS2’s The Return of Superman alongside his son Haoh. The show showcased their loving father-son relationship, earning praise from viewers who admired Gary’s sincerity and gentle parenting style.

Through his latest post, Gary reaffirmed that stepping away from fame to prioritize his family was not a loss, but a blessing. His words “The best decision of my life” resonate deeply with fans who have followed his long journey from stage to fatherhood.
