Kim Seung-gyu Welcomes Newborn Daughter Upon Return to Korea

Model Kim Jin-kyung revealed the touching first meeting moment between her husband, national soccer team goalkeeper Kim Seung-gyu, and their daughter. On the 1st, Kim Jin-kyung posted a photo of Kim Seung-gyu holding their newborn daughter on her social media, expressing her overwhelming emotions at welcoming their new family with footprints and heart emojis.

Kim Jin-kyung gave birth to their first daughter on the 4th of last month, but Kim Seung-gyu was unable to be by her side during the birth due to the national team's training and competition schedule for the '2026 North, Central America World Cup.' As a result, Kim Seung-gyu had to be apart from his child for about a month.

The South Korean national soccer team failed to advance to the Round of 32 for the '2026 North, Central America World Cup' and returned to Korea on the morning of the 1st. After a long journey, Kim Seung-gyu finally met his daughter and spent a warm first moment with her.

Kim Seung-gyu and Kim Jin-kyung married in 2024. Kim Jin-kyung has shown her affection for soccer by actively participating as a member of 'FC Guchukjangshin' on the SBS entertainment program 'Kick a Goal,' and she developed a relationship with Kim Seung-gyu through their shared interest in soccer, which led to their marriage.
